    Interesting short speech by Jobs on gaming as a learning tool. Note that he connects it to libraries. And that he emphasizes an evolutionary arc: games -> simulations. And also that it's from 1990, early on when Macs had barely no gaming at all.

    The persistence of Russia is fascinating. I recommend Metro 2033 as a balance.

    "It's easy to promise something in a manifesto. After all, by the time we've elected that party, it's five long years before we can get rid of it. And the vast majority of the promises are broken within the first few months - or the first five minutes of coalition negotiation..."

    Love it. I wonder what kind of legwork it would take to "port" this over to US politics....

    Basically moves games to the cloud. This could be a critical step towards wider distribution of games on campus. Eliminates need for special high end hardware and is subscription based, meaning cheap price for a wide selection and only occasional use.

    Book review for "Extra Lives" by Tom Bissell.  I wouldn't say that "beat Red Dead Redemption" should be on the list, but I don't disagree with adding Bioshock.

    I'm surprised nobody stepped forward to support this group. Surely conservative family groups would back this?

Pakistan games censorship

shared by Ed Webb on 22 Jan 13 - No Cached
  • A Pakistani security official speaking on the condition of anonymity told Fox News that these games are part of psychological warfare. He said, “These games are an effort to malign the minds of youth against Pakistan.” The security official views these games as American attempts to prepare the minds of Pakistanis to accept reports of Pakistan as a failed state, a place that is harboring terrorists, to justify any future action where youth would accept the killing of Pakistanis.
