Interactive movie adventure The Dark Side of the Moon is out now

Ah, you made my day!
I was deliberately cryptic with this obscure reference, curious to see who (if any) gets it.
And I know it was rather off topic, but it was impossible for me to resist.

The Dark Side of the Moon is a brand new interactive movie
There is no Dark Side in the Moon, really. Matter of fact, it's all dark.

Well, is Valve. They may get back to it in 10 years or so. Time flows differently for them.

25 Feb 2021 at 2:02 pm UTC

So Steam Controller 2%, much lower than what I expected.
Then again, the stats here are much better in this regard (27%:

Interesting difference.

Google, Bungie, id Software all under fire in a new Stadia lawsuit

Quoting: t3gI can’t wait for Stadia to die out since it’s one big circle jerk here.
Seriously? I've heard reasonable arguments against Stadia, but yours is just silly.

And this one: http://linuxgizmos.com/linux-based-robonaut-2-preps-for-active-iss-duty/ [External Link]

The 330-pound Robonaut 2 measures 3 feet, 4 inches tall from the waist, and is equipped with more than 350 sensors. It uses Ubuntu control software, and appears to run another type of embedded Linux on its 38 PowerPC-based processors, which make up the “brain” located in its stomach.

I don't personally care about 4K, (I think 1440p is the sweet spot) I care more about a minimum of 60fps. And I doubt is Stadia's choice here, (rather Bethesda's), but is ridiculous that (as stated in the article) Elder scrolls Online still runs at 30fps even cranked down at 720p.
All this while they were talking even about 8K. They really really need to stop this over-promise > under-deliver thing they're doing.

I watched the event live, as it was streamed from Nasa. With the exception of laptops (which were running mostly windows), on their main monitors in the control room they were running some kind of "nix" OS. Can't say what exactly it was, but I think I recognized an older version of Gnome running on.
I'm curious what was that.

Terraria for Stadia cancelled, due to Google locking the developer out

We still don't know what exactly happened, and we still have only one side of the story. Not that I hope that Google will clarify it, but everything is possible. Maybe someone else had access to the respective account and did some crap with it. Unlikely, but possible.
I'm also intrigued by the developer silence that followed the initial turmoil. His YouTube account was reinstated a couple of days ago and there was no comment about it.
