My cousin in Pakistan is looking for a gaming laptop. Anything with decent specs is super expensive right now. Weirdly... PC gaming handhelds do offer compelling specs for the price. Maybe that's the way to go? Yeah, she'll need to buy a keyboard but... 32GB of RAM.

Digger Spoilers: Cool that everyone was using a different kind of phone. In reality, the elite all should have been using iPhone. I think Digger's writers knew that in the future, a production recreating the past would get things wrong. Like when movies from the 1930s show NYC, minus the horses.

I understand that paywalls are annoying, but the grim reality for everything right now, is if you want something to exist, you have to put money towards it. Every creative person is having their life's work hoovered up by AI companies. Layoffs never end. Private equity keeps making things worse.

Does it bother anyone else in Fortune's Weave that, despite parts of the story talking place years apart, everyone is always wearing the same clothes? Laser guns exist in this universe, but not wardrobes?

Unless you're under the age of 14 and don't know how the world works, don't pirate games. The industry is already filled with F2P GaaS titles with micro transaction hell. No developer deserves to have their content stolen. Especially Remedy. www.ign.com/articles/one... via @ign.com
