Let's hope for a solar powered GPU with negative TDP and an instruction set that devalues cryptocurrency if used for mining.

I'm usually of the "go sports!" or "did you see that ludicrous display last night" part of the demographic but this one was quite fun.

Extra brownie points to the developers for displaying the correct button icons for my Dual Shock and not assuming everything is an Xbox controller.

I got it early from the Kickstarter and it's been a blast so far. Highly recommended!

Speaking of British humor, I wonder if there are any TCP references in there? Maybe not. I guess it would be a joke better suited for a game with network support...

All’s right with the world!

Anyhow... loved the first game in the series, loved the demo, the full version will be great I'm sure, but man am I'm glad they stuck to letting the programmers program and not draw:

You can't over-charge a battery by keeping it at 100% but you will up the charge cycles and age the battery prematurely.
By limiting battery charge/discharge you will charge more often but have a longer life span for the battery:

Hmmm... Neon Prime... Prme... Valve are obviously obsessed with the 2007 cult classic fps Alpha Prime by Black Element Software/Bohemia Interactive and are working on a Half-Life/Alpha-Prime crossover!

(Admit it, if Gordon Freeman had a voice he would sound exactly like Paolo Bellini!)

Quoting: elmapulwe dont need the runtime to be opensource to make an code opensource, if we follow that logic, then we cant licence anything under GPL for windows.

maybe there are some incompatibilities that im not aware of, but i dont think so, if gpl contamined the runtime then an single program for windows being GPL (even if not written by microsoft) would mean the entire source of windows would need to be opensource.

No, this is covered by the system library exception:

Unity is not a system library though.
