I've always wondered if you could make a kit to swap out a cars computer with a... Raspberry Pi or something. Wouldn't it be nice to have a car where you know what hardware it has, what software it's running and who gets data from it?
I have a feeling if I lit truck load of old computers on fire in a quarry or something, arguing "When you think about it most of the e-waste was just metal PC cases so it doesn't count" would not fly in court.
Eh, it's the circle of ~~life~~ game development.
Small studio makes great games, gets bought by big studio, big studio's management flood small studio's staff, the games developed suffer, big studio makes cuts firing almost everyone who was worth a damn, small studio shambles on in name only for a while longer before being mercifully put down. Meanwhile some of the fired devs band together creating a new small studio which makes great games, attracting the attention of a big studio...
Retrieving the deorbited satellites — which weigh roughly 573 to 650 pounds (260 to 295 kg) for first-generation units and 1,764 to 2,756 pounds (800 to 1,250 kg) for second-generation units — is technically impractical and financially unviable, according to the company. Hence, the incineration technique.
So that's 148,980 to 325,000 kilograms of electronics burned. Literally hundreds of tons of e-waste being incinerated by single corporation in just half a year.
We need to do some MRI scans or something so see if the brain damage is detectable once you pass one billion dollars.
Eh, I guess I toss out one of my favorite DS games as a break from my previous Steam recommendations, so Retro Game Challenge 2, the fan translation of GameCenter CX: Arino no Chōsenjō 2. This actually may get downvoted a fair bit, because the Game Center CX show that inspired the game has a dedicated cult following in the United States and Retro Game Challenge 2 has been played by some fairly big streamers.
Anyway on to the game itself. Retro Game Challenge 2 is a collection of NES and SNES styled mini games loosely bound together by a fairly non-nonsensical meta plot and a ton of nostalgia. You're assigned "challenges" for the various games that you have to beat, think NES Remix if you've played that, it's actually from the same developer. But not only that there's a ton of nostalgic little touches, all the mini-games have in game "manuals" to read, there are also in game "gaming magazines" that offer tips and tricks for the games you play, as well as hinting about "up-coming" games. There's also a "daily challenge" which is a... well challenge that is issued daily, with difficulty that ramps up as you beat them.
The best part of the whole game/micro games is that you can freely play them after they've been unlocked. None of the NES Remix's "We've got the whole game here, but you can't do anything but the challenges" bullshit. You want to play though the entirety of the ten-ish hour NES styled JRPG? Go for it. Indieszero also included some "challenge mode" versions of games from the first Retro Game Challenge game.
Anyway, as the wall of text may have clued you in, I really like this game.
I actually don't think this one is quite as obscure as you think, since it was given away on Epic a few years ago.
Caves of quid
You mean Caves of Qud, right? 'Cause if that's not a typo it's so obscure that even search engines don't know about it :)
Oh, thought of another one to list here: Micro Mages. It's not just NES styled game, but an actual NES game with a emulation wrapper around it for Steam. You actually get a NES ROM when you buy the game that's playable in all the emulators I've thrown it into. I've actually got a copy of the rom on my 3DS.
The real interesting thing that the devs put out a video about the challenges of fitting their game onto a NES cart (which is actually how I found out about the game). While the game is kinda small, (I think... I haven't actually beaten it) it's well worth the current sale price 99 cents.
It's well known that the Qatar jet was a lemon that they gave to Trump as a white elephant gift. It probably developed some mechanical problem(s) and they had to ground it for repairs.
