More than a quarter.

We can dream…

Sadly, with the chip shortage, USB sticks aren’t even that cheap anymore. MSoft and Sony would adopt the latest (most expensive) usb version for the transfer speed. You wouldn’t want the cheap chips/sticks anyway, lest your $90 game stick randomly corrupt itself.

Then you have to protect the stick while it’s plugged in so it doesn’t get bumped and break the connector/port; so then it’s back to proprietary sockets that only certain sticks fit into, flip-top covers, or something “under” the console. I remember folks throwing a fit when Apple put the power button on the bottom of the Mac mini 😂

But really good marketing. They got the emails of a bunch of people interested in Steam hardware, they got their name out there to folks like me who’ve never heard of them. They put out a sincere sounding apology, gave automatic full refunds, and in 18 months I’ll probably remember them as a trustable brand but forget it was because they did a dumbass copyright infringement.

We pull from a river with a fairly large watershed which skips the aquifer too!

Still waiting for vertical taskbar support on my work box. They only acknowledged the deficit earlier this year…

The hype can die. The force feeding can die. The market bending, consumer hardware scarce-ifying, and local infrastructure upending spending can at least temper a bit.

In other words, “tokenminning,” short for “token minimizing,” is now in.

2. Oh gods, is minning now a thing?

Not everyone

Ok. Since you seem to be genuine, I’ll put in the work.

1. Proper nouns don’t get automatically separated; they get capitalized.

2. Maybe I’m reading too deep into “the proper noun of this”, but a proper noun is not generally a structural component of a sentence. Properness is an aspect of a noun.

3. ‘True love’ is the ‘subject’ of the sentence, but it is not normally considered a proper noun. A proper noun is the title or name of a noun, such as: Brian, Marseilles, or Shake Weight.

4. You may be misapplying the rule about directly addressing someone (or something). You would write: “Jimmy, get down from there,” or “Get down from there, Jimmy,” but you wouldn’t write “I’m going to, Walmart, for groceries.” This usage is often a proper noun, but it doesn’t need to be, such as in “Friends, Romans, countrymen, lend me your ears.”

I… I can’t tell if you are trolling or genuinely confused.

It is the destroyer of worlds.

Talk about nominative determinism

So in a few weeks we’ll get to sample a die of Rhea1?

Jfc!

I’m optimistic that it will only be several months to a year before more are available with how the hardware market has been fucked. Surely the unfuckening is imminent.

Enjoy

The language is ancient, but, since it has continued to be used long past its ancient origin, words and phrases have been coined in later periods for various purposes.

Also, the “early modern” era is roughly considered the period between the Middle Ages and the Industrial Revolution.
