Thanks for the correction; admittedly, those were a little before my time, although I did see then once or twice in the wild.

Speaking of storage technology that just won't die, I think magnetic tape backups still exist in one form or another.

    I can sympathize so much with the unique and often difficult challenges that come with deprogramming - I was raised Mormon. When I broke free, for a long time I struggled with anger at myself for believing charlatans. But the process of untangling your own thoughts from the brainwashing can have unexpected high Libby's, too, as you learn who you want to be on your own terms.

    So, yeah, this is a bullshit move by Google. But the article was just hyperbole; if a school doesn't ban AI that does not mean they're forced to use it. Journalism is a lost art.

    I bet it'll work perfectly. But, of course, there's a bunch of mini PCs out there with a suitable form factor that would be compatible with SteamOS (has to be AMD only, but that's basically the one requirement for SteamOS).

    That said, I'd go for the Steam Machine given a choice, so...

    And they are probably my favorite game from each franchise.

    I had tried rogue-lite games a couple of times, but didn't really catch my interest. But ended up loving a rogue-lite PoP big time. And their composer for the music in both games is amazing, not to mention their graphic artists - I really dig their art style.

    Hmm. That's a very good point. And if corporations are "people", they should be the only people subjected to capital punishment.

    Cause serious enough harm? Fuck you, you're ALL getting fired. Or at least everyone in management; the ones who actually do the work rarely have any agency in the situation, so yeah maybe don't punish them. At least minimize harm, maybe nationalize resources and break it up.

    Castlevania: Belmont's Curse. I am a huge fan of The Rogue Prince of Persia, plus I love Castlevania, so been looking forward to this one. And I gotta say, I am not disappointed in the slightest - it's an excellent addition to the franchise.
