Citizens will be on their best behavior because we are constantly recording and reporting everything that’s going on.
Larry has apparently never seen a single episode of any reality TV show. That’s impressive.

Return the internet to the pre-“smart” phone era, in which a minimum bar of effort and knowledge needed to be present in order to connect and participate on the web.
Yeah. I think that’s happening now. The public will discover the Fediverse, but I’m not sure if they’ll be welcomed into every community here.
History tells us there’s also a release valve of a swift brick to the side of the head, one brick per billionaire.
It sounds messier than paying taxes, to me. But I’m not a billionaire, so I can’t say I understand their motives.
The shared roof makes sense, I suppose. They might want all that water power from any rain to also get directed into the wheel wells.
Lol. It’s not the groundhog we should be watching, then?
They probably mean Open Container Initiative (OCI), the protocol shared by Podman and Docker.
Maybe they’re just very careful never to promote anyone from engineering to the bridge crew…
Cool. Thank you!
I actually get all of my passwords from keyboard cats on social media.
It’s sad to see so much labor and capital wrapped up in one ultra rich person’s ego. (The pyramids)
I’m glad we don’t do that anymore. (/sarcasm)
Yeah. An elephant won’t stay crisp in the egg compartment.
Gee. The police are still protecting us by smashing fun things
Edit: Since I don’t in any way routinely buy from these guys, there’s no way I can possibly let y’all know later, when the supply is in no noticable way diminished by this.
The exciting thing about this is just being able to reuse more USB controllers that happen to be lying around available.
The vast majority of the Evercade catalog has no particular use for Analog controls, but it’ll be nice to be able to plug in and use a controller that happens to have analog sticks.
It’s also worth noting that none of the games that do support Analog actually expected the player to have analog sticks. I’ve played most of those either on PS1 or Evercade, and they’re winnable without analog sticks.
Analog sticks for PS1 were available, but most folks didn’t have them.
I’m predicting that the “hidden secret” for those “on the ball” is a bonus Piko game when Piko Collection 3 and 4 are inserted. Since Piko 4 features Glover, and bonus games for cartridge pairs have been a tradition for awhile.
Yeah. If Valve releases a remotely viable desktop console OS, I’ll immediately build one for my living room. If for no other reason, to keep the rest of the family away from my SteamDeck.
As in if you live in a state with sales tax but down the road is a state without sales tax- why ever shop in your state?
Mostly the states are quite big, so it’s not worth the trouble. But along various state borders, it distorts the shopping experience in odd ways.
I’ve been to towns that are missing common retailers entirely, because everyone drives to the next town over (in another state), to avoid a tax.
We also have a rich history of driving across state lines to purchase stuff that’s illegal in our own state. It’s also illegal to bring it back, but the borders aren’t patrolled, so the only way to get caught is to have a traffic violation while doing it.
Or so I’ve heard. I never break any laws, myself.
Cool chart.
It really makes the point to me that the PS1 and PS2, when adjusted for inflation, and for relative compute power, were just such a fantastic deal.
I was recovering from some serious console-purchase fatigue, when I bought my PS1 to replace my garage sale purchased Super NES. It was a big deal to me.
I’ve paid PS5 prices (inflation adjusted) for a game system a few times (my first Switch and SteamDeck), but they’ve been a lot more mind blowing than what appears to be on offer today.
Disclaimer: My favorite game is 8-bit, anyway.
Ever since they added DRM Anti-cheat to Capcom Arcade 1 and 2, I satisfy my nostalgia for old Capcom games… Other ways.
There’s this guy who stands in an alley near my house who sells a USB stick with everything Capcom ever made before 2004.
I’m sure he’s officially licensed. He’s my preferred Capcom vendor, because that USB stick was DRM free.
“Best friend I ever had… We still don’t talk, sometimes.”
The nicest thing about the second picture is how much free untamed land it leaves for me to find a spot to bury the body of my asshole upstairs neighbor.
Edit: I’m not a murderer… But only because I moved out.
