If it didn’t AIMP has a folders section under my music.

There’s a couple of curators that “review” DRM in games. It’s not perfect but it helps.

There’s a few companies selling a very plasticky mini-pc that also has 2x 3.5" slots. Trialling it now for a homebuilt Nas, so far impressed. Worst problem is that the bigger drives can be noisy.

Aoostar in the US I think.

What mystifies me is usually when they do this sort of thing they throw it on Plus and get a mountain of players. Fall guys, and Destruction All Stars spring to mind as examples. I guess the effect isn’t so strong with the new tiered system, but it may have saved them some face.

So. Years back. When they did that ad where parents sent a kid emails to their own Gmail and then gave them the account details when they were grown up… Everyone who ever did that are gonna lose all their work if they don’t think to log in periodically. Nice.

Was an actual question - it wasn’t exactly universally hailed as a success, so I wasn’t sure if we were pretending it didn’t exist. I found it to be fine though. And last I poked around mod support seemed likely, but I got distracted by other releases so it’s not as ‘grabby’ as MoM was. I think the increased fidelity came at the cost of speed. But maybe that’s just because I can’t rely on muscle memory to bang through turns now.

Uh. Are you kidding? The remaster released like 6 months back.

There was a game for Amiga and ST called Eco. It was a great concept and a terrible game really, too slow, too random, and eventually too easy when you knew the pattern. But it was a great concept, and something like it but with smaller genetic steps/algorithm generated body forms. Think an entire game based around the creature phase of Spore. Or, spore as it was originally marketed I guess! There’s a couple of indies working on similar concepts at the moment, but nothing has quite ‘clicked’ for me yet.

Corvids.

It would not be a good use for Blockchain technology. Besides the problem that your dollars are a fungible asset that don’t have a physical object associated with it, as soon as you dollars get converted to another state, account, entity, whatever along with another thousands people’s dollars you would lose the tracking. And ultimately even if you could achieve this it would then either all fall to one or two accounts so you would have the disheartening effect of seeing your entire annual contribution spent on something tedious like fuelling an aircraft carrier, or they would attempt to distribute it evenly in which case why not save all the effort and just track the average spend budgets? It’s a solution looking for a problem here.
