I want them to launch a Deck v2, Controller v2, and a new take on the Steam Machine simultaneously with a goal of knocking Xbox out of the market and replacing them as the third console. A new Steam Machine right now would play all of Xbox’s exclusives on day one and some of Sony’s.
More or less. The power for everything is run through the electro-plasma system, terminating in EPS conduits at every terminal. Plasma IRL is fucking hot.
So you can send the robot back in time, obviously.
Unless they decide to orrient with the disc vertically aligned. Of if they base it on their home system.
Nowadays I mostly think of it in regards to how much control you have over the hardware. If you can Ship of Theseus your way to a completely different machine with completely different specs, that’s a PC to me. If you’re stuck with what you paid for, then it’s something else. A Mac Mini is not a PC in my book, but a Hackintosh is even though it’s the same OS and general hardware architecture.
But that’s just how I use the term.
Devs tend to go with simplified or cartoony graphics for legibility on the small integrated screen, but that’s just an art style choice. Doesn’t look too far off from Xenoblade 3, especially given polygons will be saved by not having to render a mile out. Or consider that Doom 2016 runs decently on the Switch.
The Wiimote worked with a pair of IR blasters to locate your screen. Joycons have no idea where your screen is. In that light, that they work as pointing devices at all is actually rather impressive.

My car uses an even more fucked scale. It tops out at 63, of all numbers.
I’m guessing a single release, and the game being used to show off the backwards compatibility features of the next system. Probably the usual 800p-900p 30fps on Switch and something higher when slotted into a Switch 2.
Why is it smiling? What does it know?!
The headline is misleading. They want to rename the US Exclusive Economic Zone, which is essentially the region between the US coast and international waters, to be the Donald John Trump Exclusive Economic Zone of the United States. It’s still super fucking stupid, though.
I’m running a 4090 on PCIe 3. Apparently I’m only losing about 5% off the potential frame rate, which is barely noticeable.
Try Beyond. He had basically no involvement.
It does get less hyper as it goes on, but only to a point.
The entire cyberpunk genre is about corporations destroying society and the planet for profit and is near-future sci-fi. Dune is about how human nature doesn’t change, the same revolutions occurring again and again over thousands of years, with humans always being on the verge of self extinction and the only escape being to destroy civilization so hard that any conflict will always leave survivors that have had no contact with anyone else in millennia. Hitchiker’s Guide to the Galaxy presents a world where the entire universe is utter chaos, worlds can be destroyed by a clerical error, and cosmically powerful beings do random things for shits and giggles. Starship Troopers, Warhammer, and Starcraft depict humans becoming the bad guys at an interstellar scale.
So, no, sci-fi is not inherently hopeful.
Also works as a coaster for those huge coffee mugs.
Even without all the sequels and prequels Star Wars would still have been endlessly referenced for decades after the 2nd movie.
Not necessarily. Being able to stick the landing is hugely important for a series’ legacy. Game of Thrones disappeared from conversation after its disastrous final season, but would probably be fondly remembered if it had been suddenly cancelled after season five. If ROTJ had been a similar dumpster fire, Star Wars might have gone the same way.
Worf didn’t even have an interesting backstory in the first season. He was just the Klingon in the crew and was sometimes kind of stuffy. Tasha’s backstory of being from the rape planet was incredibly cringe, though, and they didn’t spend any of her nearly two dozen episodes fleshing her out beyond that while Worf spent the first season accumulating minor quirks.
The version in First Contact was fine. She was basically just an avatar for the Collective, possibly a gestalt consciousness. As she said, “I am the Borg.” The problem is later writers didn’t get that.
