Sony still seems especially bad about this. They fought for decades to have the dominant physical media format, from Betamax, to Minidiscs, to Memory sticks. They would eventually win with Blurays by selling the PS3 at a huge loss and now they want to abandon physical media?

360 was fine on paper, but the RRoD plagued it.

Wouldn’t that have been the Golden Horse Armor?

Sony is a weird shitshow of a company. Too big and too many departments and branches, with no one knowing what the other is doing. Back in the day, as Sony Electronics was developing their first physical MP3 player, Sony Music was lobbying to make MP3s illegal. Department heads shift to a different branch and shutdown anything their predecessor was working on.

24+ hours? Wow.

Steve Ballmer also once said “Developers” over a dozen times at a conference. That was weird, but he was too rich for anyone near him to tell him that.

Not those blues, purples or greens.

I’m growing some “The Eleven” tomatoes this year, which is a hybrid of a cherry tomato that was spliced with a Snapdraon flower to have higher levels of the anthocyanin, the antioxidant that’s found in many blue produce.

“Good”
