I just found it in the pixels, like Michaelangelo found David within the slab of marble.
I've been exposed to the concept of "digital twin" before -- essentially, it's just creating a model of the real-world asset in digital form. For example, if you have an industrial plant with a motor, you might have one spot where you have all the information about that motor, any motor controls, and manuals, any drawings, all in one spot, and likely situated in a 3d model.
It won't change the world if you have proper recordkeeping already.

Confirmed? (I remember this issue. "I'm the Son of Sim" was this article where the guy acted like a serial killer in The Sims. Man, this was just a great magazine -- no wonder it died and PC Gamer survived...)
This magazine was great as something purely about the craft of video games. One of the columnists was Irrational Games' Ken Levine where he wrote a lot about the craft of making video games.
It was sad seeing it disappear, yet PC Gamer remains. ðŸ˜

PC Accelerator was the undisputed king of "art" inside the pages (that may or may not get stuck together for no reason at all)
Who would blame the farmers? It's the fault of the fascistic central planners who have meddled directly in our lives without regard for the consequences.
It's true, but not in the way that they think.
Abortion is comparable to slavery, because a certain segment of the population considers another segment of the population to be less than human and therefore you can do whatever you want with them.
You have two factions: those who consider all human life as sacred, and those who think you can pick and choose who is worthy of being protected with basic human rights.
The right people won last time. And now they won again.

Listen here, you conspiracy theorist. We know smoking is safe. The government told us that smoking is safe.
Oh sorry
Asbestos is safe the government told us that asbestos was safe.
Oh sorry
Thalidomide is safe the government told us that thalidomide is safe
Oh sorry
Please ignore those other examples, of course what I meant to say is that the vaccines are safe, the government told us that the vaccines are safe.

Part of the problem of the past decade has been directly related to the fact that those video games are huge business.
The problem isn't necessarily that they're released broken (they often aren't compared to the releases of the past), but the fact that all their sharp edges have been sanded down by massive teams.
Look at Daggerfall from the 1990s. It was massive, it was janky, it had systems that didn't help, and other systems that were massively overpowered, but it felt like anything could happen because there was interesting stuff to discover.
Look at The latest Bethesda creations. Much more polished, much more streamlined, but you really feel like they put all their best cars on the table in the first 20 minutes of gameplay. There aren't really many surprises at all.

Not really...
"My new game console is mostly a fully intact but non-functional 1957 Chevy Bel Air with a raspberry pi mounted in the driver's side door. You plug the pi into power and hdmi and some controllers and you can play games! You need to cut the front of your house off and use a fork life to place it in front of your TV"
"Why would you have that?"
"IT'S GAMES THATS A STUPID QUESTION STFU"
The question of "Why would I want this" is a good one to answer if you expect someone else to give you money for it...

People who work with automation understand that you have to be very careful with automation. Everything seems fine and dandy until something unexpected happens.

Cancelled my account the moment I discovered they were joining forces with funimation.

I do believe that was a big part of it, yes. They've been gaming the numbers hard. We'd be at 1970s levels of inflation if we measured the same way we did back then.
I feel like no matter what you believe, and there's a wide span on the Internet...
