Kamrui is the manufacturer. I checked some online reviews and it works great. Not for gaming (though you could stream games on it). Comes with Windows 11 (some don't so check the details).
Since Monday was still weekend, I'm updating my list with Splatoon3. I played some yesterday, after a long hiatus and had a good time. I played some Pro Splatzone games and came out victorious. Nice to know I still have it.
Nintendo buying Shiver is weird. Their ports aren't even good. They should have bought Virtuous or Saber Interactive.
Saber would have also given them the Snowrunner developer.
Perhaps they wanted to get with the times and buy some studio to then close?
Or they might just close them out of spite for the horrible ports they've created for the Switch.
Stupid windows 11, insisting that I switch to their new outlook agenda which can't be used offline. Typical MS to place such restrictions and think it won't be problematic to anyone.
Panic Button.

Headline: Every single one of the testicles examined contained a SIGNIFICANT amount of microplastics
Sub: “We don’t want to scare people...”

The fact that it is hidsous doesn't help. I was close to gettign one as a back-up PS4, but I'm holding out hope for a remodel.
Power corrupts, absolute power corrupts absolutely.
It's absurd as the population in Australia that even knows what Stellar Blade is would be about 45 people and me and Foolz are two of them. And I don't eat meat.
Most people will assume it's a porn star - Stella Blade.
Yeah, we are fucked.
So some people have a microplastic fetish. To each their own and all of that. Who are we to judge?
I used to think the PS5 was hideous too, but I don't really think so anymore. I have it horiztonal, which makes it look a lot better, I think.
I'd wait to see what happens with PS5 Pro. It might look better . . . or worse, lol.
That said, the dualshock 3 is much better than its successor. Sony definitely dropped the ball on their controller for the PS4. That touchpad that the ds4 has didn't have a particularly practical use and was ultimately a burden for it.
The PS4's touchpad and light bar were solutions looking for a problem. Neither added anything of value to gaming, IMO. I definitely preferred the larger, more comfortable shape of the PS4 controller.
Fuck I go to those sites to stay away from IGN!
Yes we are. I was at a big aquarium the other day and there was a little info sign that shook me a little.It said plastics don't break down for they estimate about 500 years, which means that every item made of plastic ever made is still in existence.
Ugh.
I'm just glad my consumer product has no PFAS and we've minimized the plastic to the bare minimum. Thing is, when you go to any supplier -- say of carboard -- and ask for a PFAS free statement the closest anyone will come is "no PFAS have been intentionally added" because the general assumption is that PFAS are in everything including the water and timber used to make the paper.
I did not mind the "cross bar" navigation. I guess it is what you are used to. I agree on the controllers though. I have big hands (humble brag) and even so the PS4 controller starts to hurt after an hour of playing.
They are all UK based sites, so I imagine most of them will be folded into IGN UK -- which is a tiny operation.
Games journalism is no longer a job. I think there are more motion picture "celebrities" than there are people working in the field of enthuisat media for video games.
