at work some kids added me to a text chain they all use specifically for texting out photos of dead animals they find.

I’m too scared to let them know how soft I am.

Stay in the group so you can call the police when they decide to bring a gun to work. Also see if they have any cool new Doom map packs.

Google's making a gaming system that will exist entirely in the cloud

https://kotaku.com/sources-google-is-planning-a-game-platform-that-could-1827217387

quote:

We haven't heard many specifics about Google's video game plans, but what we have heard is that it's a three-pronged approach: 1) Some sort of streaming platform, 2) some sort of hardware, and 3) an attempt to bring game developers under the Google umbrella, whether through aggressive recruiting or even major acquisitions. That's the word from five people who have either been briefed on Google's plans or heard about them secondhand.

So what is this streaming platform, exactly? Like Nvidia's GeForce Now, the Google service would offload the work of rendering graphics to beefy computers elsewhere, allowing even the cheapest PCs to play high-end games. The biggest advantage of streaming, as opposed to physical discs or downloads, is that it removes hardware barriers for games. Whispers have been quieter about Google's hardware, whatever that may look like, but the rumors we've heard suggest that it will link up with the streaming service in some way. We're not sure whether Google is looking to compete with the technical specs of the next PlayStation and Xbox or whether this Google console will be cheaper and low-end, relying on the streaming service to pull weight.

wait, "aggressive" why does the car have settings to make it less safe to begin with

same reason the Uber self-driving car had panic-braking disabled when it plowed through a pedestrian

the self-driving car companies think that Americans don't actually want a car that drives safely, they want a car that drives like they do except with better reflexes

the more dependent on marketing and hype the company is, the more likely they are to cut safeguards and ramp up the aggressiveness to give the appearance of a smoother, faster ride

if anyone can try to do an end-run around the speed of light, it's google, but only because they have servers everywhere.

the trick to streaming games and avoiding lag/throughput/latency problems is this:

put the "server" in the same room as the person playing the game
