Abbacchio finds himself eating at a restaurant, and sees a policeman next to the table investigating numerous pieces of broken glass, looking for handprints. Abacchio: "Hey... you there... what are you doing down there? Officer?" Officer: "Sorry for interrupting your meal... I'm in the middle of an investigation. I'm looking for fingerprints. There was a mugging across the street last night. The victim got hit with a bottle. And the bottle broke... but, not all of the pieces are on the sidewalk. Most importantly, the part he was holding is gone. I thought the perp might have come here to throw something away in this recycling bin. I should be able to get fingerprints if I can find that part." Abacchio: "... You're gonna look through all of that?" Officer: "That's my job..." Abacchio: "Uh huh... well, uh... " Officer: "Yes?" Abacchio: "It's nothing... there's something I wanna ask. Just outta personal curiosity. What are you gonna do if you don't find anything? You might not get any fingerprints. No, even if you do... the perp could hire a good lawyer and get declared not guilty. What drives you to keep toiling despite that?" Officer: "Hm... the result is not all I desire. When you desire only the result, you start trying to take shortcuts... and when you start taking shortcuts, you might lose sight of the truth, what is really important. Eventually, you lose your motivation, too." Officer: "I believe that the will to seek out the truth is what's important. As long as you have the will to seek it out, then, even if the perp gets away this time, you'll reach your destination eventually, won't you? That's because you're seeking it out. Don't you agree?"

The East LA level in Tony Hawk's American Sk8land has an elaborate secret involving an invisible rail that clips you through geometry to an out-of-bounds section of the map, revealing a message telling you to hide in the bushes in the Beverly Hills map.

When you do so, the game plays a fart noise.

there was this great talk at one of the zig conferences where a developer talked about how they preferred static types because of their adhd.

static types are also an accessibility tool

CAIL = prerequisite knowledge for a critical perspective, such as to tell apart nonsense hype from true theoretical computer scientific claims. For example, the idea that human-like systems are a sensible or possible goal is the result of circular reasoning and anthropomorphism. olivia.science/ai

But now you've got a continuing problem: Just which graphics card do you buy; Matrox? 3DFX? ATI? Rendition?

Buy the wrong one, and you could find yourself with a card unsupported by all but a handful of games. A bit of a minefield, and it's part of what sent my family to PS1 after Amiga.

PCEm can emulate old PCs with S3 and 3DFX 3D cards (possibly also Matrox?), and there seems to be an abandoned fork of it for PowerVR support.

You can also play 3DFX (via Dgvoodoo2 and nGlide), ATI (via GLRage), and Rendition (via RReady) games natively too, albeit with just the GPU emulated

Honestly I kinda easily forget Xabungle was being made and aired before Be Invoked was released. It's just way too easy to compartmentalize Xabungle as the "response" to Ideon. There's just some parts of your brain you gotta learn to kill lol

"Survival Kit for the Information Age."

Electronic organizers and early PDAs continue to be fascinating to me, and this is one of the more unusual hybrids: The debut OZ-7000 model, expandable via 'IC Cards', each with specific functions, memory storage, and touch-sensitive overlays.
A magazine ad for the OZ-7000 with its sleek folio type design and calculator style buttons and a small green LCD. IC cards flow to it to be slotted in.
