Michael R and Andy get together to talk through this week’s stories while Michael M is away.
The cohosts start things off with a discussion on The Sphere, the Las Vegas landmark which uses 1.23 million LED ‘pucks’ to put on an impressive video display powered by 150 NVidia GPUs according to the Hackaday article. Interested in seeing Dead & Company in this immersive experience? Check out the show notes and make your plans before August 10th.
After a discussion on OpenELM, the pair turn their attention to OpenSCAD and a conversation on how to tame that under desk tangle of cords with an open source solution called Underware.
Next up, a conversation on floppy disks still in productive use as well as a Windows emulator for iPhone, iPad and Apple Vision Pro devices.
Wrapping up the episode are conversations about other podcasts. Are there other podcasts beyond Games at Work? Apparently so. An interview with the “What If?” app creator is followed by the science of board games, with an intriguing factoid: that drunkeness helps you reach nirvana. At least in one particular chutes and ladders style game.
