Carmac one of the key figures who helped turn gaming into esports. Before the stages and the cameras, he was part of the Unreal Tournament community a place where passion, rivalry, and raw competition shaped the future. His journey from fragging to founding is one of the most authentic stories in esports history.

Imagine this - the ability to play your favourite arena shooter game... IN BROWSER, no download needed!
It's not an invite only closed beta from 2008, but apparently a Docker container.

I put together a prototype for an online multiplayer FPS game which revolves around real world factions and divisions.
Obviously everything would look a lot better with dedicated talent, but the main idea behind it was to have a game where players align to their real world alliances and do battle against their real world enemies.
I don't know if anything will come of it, its just something I wanted to put out there as I worked on it in my spare time.
My main question is, and trolling aside, do you like the idea of playing a game where your team mates are people you are aligned with in the real world on big world issues and your opposition are people who you dislike?
And of course it would have FFA type things too, but it makes more sense as a team game.
It really daunting looking at the visual quality of games like BF6, but its 400 million dollar game with about 6,000 staff.
I'm personally bored of so many games these days, so I wanted to bypass legacy rulesets for how games are made.
Arbitrary teams and factions etc, that don't really mean much, and bring in low level emotions and then build a game around that.
Does anyone know if the WMO has a JST connector on the PCB for the cable or are the cables soldered in there? I would like to do the paracord mod but if it's not a matter of switching the cable and you have to solder it then I'll have to find someone skilled that knows how to do it. I have heard some models have the cable soldered permanently and others have a JST connector but isn't clear.

Wikinomics and Climbing Mount Improbable
I got my brother and his wife a global chef's knife and a water sharpener, which is actually also their late wedding gift(I was broke at that time :P).
Five years ago, a cousin died in a car accident. It was on December 23rd. Ever since, my family spends Christmas far away from bad memories. The first two years, we went to Belize. The third year, it was Mexico. This year, we went to Ecuador and the Galapagos. In Ecuador, we spent a few days in Quito and in the Andes; bird-watching mostly (I personally had an intimate encounter with an Andean Guan).
The Galapagos was great though. We spent 8 days on a boat, departing daily for snorkeling and hiking. Lots of Iguanas and Lava Lizards. We spent a night in a city there, San something or other. I met a couple Kiwi's, one was named Mick - a rugby player. We fucking rocked the shit. Unfortunately, I didn't get to see Mick again, even though we were trying to hook up with some weed. Crazy fucking time though, my prossy brother hooked up with a local girl. Then we departed.
Back on the Galapagos scene, I swam with the Galapagos Penguins, got threatened with sun-death by our wonderful French guide Nadine, and got drunk with some fine Alaskans named Ian and Babi.
I don't get actual Christmas presents (i'm the third Anti-Christ). No complaints though, these trips are far better than cheap, ineffectual presents you get from random relatives.
