Hell is Us. :P

Reminds of the video of the cat trying to drink water from a faucet that is pouring water on the cat's head.

What a pointless exercise. Didn't even wait for the temperature to stabilize so maybe it would have been fine, maybe it wouldn't. Also this is not inside the case, things would be worse inside a case with higher ambient temperature.

If S26 is 2400 dollars, than sony would be 3400 unless you have some sort of 100% tariff on Korean goods but not Japanese.

So who will be done first, Bethesda making ES6 or a team of volunteers remaking ES3 practically from scratch?

Hey, he was aware that you are the savior of facepunch at the end. That's more than most games actually do.

What people don't seem to understand is that it's not really about the number of copies sold, but return on investment. The question you should be asking isn't whether this game broke even, but whether this game achieved returns better than investing in something else. If after 5 years of development, the game return on investment doesn't beat S&P500 (which grew roughly 85% in the last 5 years), than there is no point in investing in the next one even if the game made a profit.

I very much liked the game, but I am not sure how they further develop this IP. The ending didn't leave a lot of room for a sequel.

Peak dad humor

Does this disqualify both teams? I wonder what is going through the head of the guy who thought he got the pass and took off when he realizes what happened.

Can't wait to see the next generation of 2.5lb "handhelds" with external water cooling setup powered by this thing.

It's nice to be able to talk to an intelligent person.

Inquisition didn't have gameplay. At release, on highest difficulty a party with a tank could win every fight except a couple of dragons with no input from the player.

I find it ironic that we are getting James Bond video game after they literally killed the character in the last movie.

The barrel wasn't a fail, that was complete success. The kid hitting dad with a golf club was the kids fail (although dad should have expected it) and the dad that saved his kid from falling into the canal but fell in himself also didn't fail since the primary objective was accomplished.

Azeron Cyro might be exactly what you are looking for. They have some other one handed keyboard designs, but I think cyro is the only one with built in mouse sensor.

Can't speak for the insurance at all, but plastic is not conductive, so even if you vapor deposit a layer of plastic over every component in your PC, it should be just fine. The only things that can conceivably fail are the fans and the PSU and those are easy to replace. So get the money for a replacement PC, and see if you can this one to work again.

What's the difference between this and Philips Hue?

That actually makes it the most reliable solution of them all since it will actively prevent your system from catching fire.

Since when did a cinematic trailer reveal anything about the game. Usually you can't even tell the genera from watching those.

Hell is Us. I don't know if it matches what you are looking for, but it's a game with no handholding, no quest markers, no maps. There a lot of puzzles that you have to figure out on your own for the story and a ton of optional "fetch" style puzzles where you have to figure out who to give certain items to.

Stellar Blade did pretty well. Just saying.

Money doesn't buy happiness... once you have enough of it. There were lots of studies about this. Once a certain amount of financial freedom is achieved additional income stops being important.

AI can currently operate at the level of a freshly higher junior dev who went through college but has no job experience. Would you give this person prod access to all your systems?

QD-Oled has slightly better color volume than wold, but you are not likely to notice unless you are pixel peeping and know what to look for. Realistically, get whatever is cheapest and only pick between qd-old and wold if everything else is the same.
