I can imagine some scenarios where 20m feels like a long time, but it goes by really quickly if you’re doing something. I set mine to update then took a shower. I honestly expected it to take more than an hour, but the 20m flew by and the computer was ready to go before I was.

I’m sure a five minute wait playing RE4 on your phone will also leave you hunting for a charger at your next destination as well. As cool as it would be to play big games, my phone is just too important for everything else.

The Mrs. is a professional graphic designer. Of course Adobe Illustrator is what she uses, but she recommends either Affinity Designer or Canva. I also see her using Procreate on iPad with an Apple Pencil a lot.

Edit: she’s definitely recommending Canva. It’s got a lot of templates specifically catered towards social media, and is easy to learn.

They all would have been wiped out.

Update from Harriette on discord this morning (in my time zone). She also posted to the microblog section in this magazine, if anyone hasn’t checked that yet.

I was gonna say… I already have an “everything” app called a web browser.

Assassin’s Creed always seemed like a perfect game for VR on paper, but I couldn’t have imagined it actually being very playable. I’m definitely interested, but I’m still getting more of a limited VR “experience” vibe from this than an actual AC VR game.

They can put them on the roofs of all the empty buildings they’re constructing.

The social network factor was a culture shock for me. You literally contact businesses and even government officials over Facebook/Facebook Messenger. Businesses don’t have their own websites, just Facebook profiles. If you’re looking for a job or an apartment, the best place to start is usually Facebook. I had to resuscitate my decades-long dead Facebook account to find my footing in Malta, and it never stopped feeling dystopian.

To bad.

Where’s that?

I am in favor.

Well, I hope we get a list of businesses that comply so hopefully I can just uninstall those.
