gta5 was fun too but this has a hell of a lot more depth and doesn’t rely on any kind of shock value. attention to detail is probably better overall, even if the world isn’t quite as big (although it is big as gently caress)

plus being able to climb almost everything is pretty cool

ah yes I look forward to USB 1395.21aj. much easier to remember.

its not really about being "easy to remember", its more or less that when it came time to do ethernet specifications, standard #802 was the next free slot in the list, and wifi was the 11th released ethernet sub specification, and the various letters afterwards are the revision version

better than the clown show that is any other commercial standard

i'm looking at you, displayport, usb, and 3g/4g/5g

while the usb branding is a mess it makes pretty much no difference to actual consumers.

usb-c/thunderbolt ports supporting an entirely unpredictable and undiscoverable set of features is a much worse issue from that perspective

tim's bold leadership of keeping icloud storage at 5 gigs means apple makes more money from that than from all macs
