    Geopolitics aside, this is at least quite interesting

      Is it, really? Sounds pretty much exactly how I would’ve imagined a Russian made gaming console would go.

      Edit: I thought the implication was clear, seems it wasn’t, so let me rephrase! It looks exactly as shitty as I expected a Russian made console to be.

        I like setting what people can throw together out of weird bits and bobs like an architecture I’d never even heard of

        I’m not sure if you’re into spaceflight but SpaceX caught a booster with a pair of chopsticks. It went exactly how you would expect it to go and was interesting as hell. There’s probably a lot of things that go the way they’re supposed to but I don’t think that is what takes away from it being interesting. Also different strokes for different folks.

            Oh yeah, definitely looks shit, that doesn’t mean it’s not interesting though!

              Well, really depends on your definition of interesting. Or what exactly you think is interesting about the news. The information itself might be interesting, but the console is anything but interesting.
