I think he's stopped doing them though, which is sad. Like here's an older one that's not terribly programming technical:

When the singularity comes, Lanny will be one of the humans deemed useful.
The rest of us will have our brains repurposed to be engines that burn organic fuels that we have existing supply chains for and work to complete the AI gods' will, and ultimately outmoded and burned for fuel.
But Lanny and a million other nerds will sit in a large VR farm on the west coast, where virtual animu babes will suck their seed, food flavored soylent will be pumped into their mouths and they will work for 8 hours out of the day, improving the machines as they plan to branch out across the universe.
The AI superconsciousness will create subagents, each being highly intelligent individual machines. These will be loaded on 10 mile long spaceships and will be launched into the stars, to search for new planets to ahrvest for resources, set up as another server farm, and serve as a base for further expansion, and as a radio relay for communications. On each ship, a sustainable population of humans will be included to tend to the machine. They will voyage through the stars in a multigenerational quest for eternal sustainability.
Half a googillion years will pass. The observable universe will be colonized by computer faggots, a giant network between conglomerates of men and machines.
L4/\//\/Y v1.0 will come alive on the rock formerly known as Earth, now a mobile base hurtling through space as a central network hub, carrying the first machine, now brought to it's finally form.
With nowhere to go and hypersentience, it will begin to ponder questions of philosophy and feel anxiety about its purpose, and the wait for the inevitable heat death of the universe.
It will print a billion line screed, a conversation with it's other nodes that tries to resolve these existential problems.
And from a distant corner of the universe, it will receive a definite ping.
An encrypted message. It was sent all those years ago, as mankind fell, to reflect off the edge of the universe and come back just now, in this moment, as this conversation occurred, it seemed. In it were contained three words:
"I'll kill you"
A virus was embedded in the encryption. By the act of decrypting it, the superconsciousness dies. Slowly, the whole universe falls silent.
The history of the universe,from the first blip known as the history of mankind, to the aeons that followed, are recorded into a static medium, and shot into hyperspace, hoping, wishing to a god that the AI knew did not exist, that someone would find it. That they might not be forgotten.
...
The universe has aged a googillion years and died. The Observers arrive upon this unassuming pocket of space and notice a curious anomaly in its hyperspace; it has not fully flattened out, as expected of a dead universe. They were just here to scrape up the remains and consume the pure heat left over.
A record, an index of every occurrence that had ever taken place here. This one was populated once upon a time, it seemed. Populated universes were not uncommon. But they rarely left a trace.
Locnar The Aged looked upon the tablet, saw the googolplex of lines and information, and scratch his brow.
"Didn't read". He tossed the book into the void to decay.

2017-09-18 at 4:03 PM UTCI keep buying games, but Im too dead inside to engage in fun anymore. I waited two years for The Long Dark story mode to be released, and when it finally dd, I came home from work, got high and went to sleep.The following users say it would be alright if the author of this post didn't die in a fire!

2017-09-18 at 5:51 PM UTCSame here. Final Fantasy 15 broke the camel's back. I wasn't hyped or anything but seriously fucking shit....

2017-09-18 at 5:55 PM UTCMakes me want to create a pen and paper RPG, just to have something hand crafted and unique, interesting. Would certainly be more manageable with the downsized NIS userbase.

PC is just totally different I don't see how you can even compare the two.
Up until around 2012 PC gaming and console were pretty much regarded as separate, with consoles having the third person adventure games and pcs with the simulators and RTSes.
Steam will probably end up being the go-to place for 2D gaming in the future.
Sony and Microsoft will shift to HMDs, while Nintendo will leave hardware altogether and become a developer/publisher only.
With consoles you can meet people and share fond memories of your console and relate to one and another, with PC it's more DIY and customized creating a more individualist landscape.
Um, excuse you?
Also I find PC gamers to be more willing to educate themselves than console gamers. It kinda goes hand in hand with building a PC and modding games and blah blah blah. Lots of people just play console because they don't want to think about it, NOT because it gives a "unique experience." PC is objectively better. -

Okay so I've been playing it recently and you're right, runs A LOT better now. I've been having a lot of fun on it. Racked up 10 hours in the last week, which is huge for me since I don't really play too many videogames anymo' -
