North Korea. The country where nobody has access to any information because they're all peasant farmers and the government will literally execute you if you read a book, but also they somehow have a crack team of hackers that steal billions of dollars worth of bitcoin worldwide and make their own delivery apps that normal people can use.
Death to America
I played it the other day for a minute and I thought it would be a little interesting in a horror context. You look down then look up and suddenly you're not even in the same room. Yhe enemies all looked like shapes that resembled human figures but were distinctly... wrong.
I think those ideas could be transported into a horror game (made without AI because the microsoft thing was genuinely unplayable and a whole host of other reasons) because it was a bit unsettling, to be honest.
It's been the story of his entire career, in fact!
Can’t think of a caption. Just really observing how much more hideous he looks today compared to even just 4 years ago.
My money is before trump’s term is up. They won’t even need to be the fastest devices to start appearing in consumer hardware. And they have now all the incentives the USA could have possibly given them to invest and pursue this technology while also ensuring their top research scientists don’t get lured into the USA to conduct research here.
That said, it’s still a significant game of catch-up. ARM has had an incredible lead time in both design and hardware production as well as the crucial software support and ironing out bugs.
Of course you can probably expect that military and corporate subsidies are going to be left untouched
The continuing resolution did increase "defense" spending, so I'm sorry to say it wasn't even left untouched 🙃

I love that that entire series is named after one really bad line read from one really bad The Ring based Dreamcast video game.
