Guided Tour Of The Pixel Packing Plant Edition
Coco seems to be most fluent in English of the main Hololive group, and for some reason she sounds like she's from Georgia - but only when speaking English.
I tuned into Gawr Gura for a bit but she's not nearly as entertaining.

Tech News
- The 11th generation ZenBook 13 doesn't look terrible. (Tom's Hardware)
It's a Tiger Lake when I'd rather see a Ryzen, but it has 16GB LPDDR4X RAM, 1TB of NVMe storage, two Thunderbolt 4 ports, one USB Type A, HDMI, and microSD, and a 13" 1080p display for $1000.
No headphone jack, but the Four Essential Keys are in place and the trackpad turns into a numeric keypad if for some weird reason you want it to do that.
- I wasn't kidding about the pixel packing plant.
- Displaying full-motion video on an IBM PC. (Oldskooler Ramblings)
And when I say IBM PC I mean 4.77MHz 8088 and a CGA card.
- I could totally see The Cyberiad being turned into an indie game but instead they've chosen to make a game from Stanislaw Lem's The Invincible which I haven't read. (WCCFTech)
It's due out the second half of 2021.
- Should you buy this $1100 Z490 motherboard? No. (AnandTech)
It's not bad. It's by no means bad. It's just that it will be obsolete within a year, and $1100 is $1100.
- Apple has released a fix to the patch for their recent update. (9to5Mac)
Good to see they're keeping on top of things.

The Invincible plays off some of the same underlying ideas as Niven's "The Locusts" or . . . uh that one story by WIlliam Gibson . . . no, Bruce Sterling's "The Swarm". I mean, I'm a pretty big Lem fan, but it's not really up there with Hospital of the Transfiguration or His Master's Voice.

I'm pretty sure Coco has spent considerable time in America. Projeckt Melody, discussing the recent unpleasantness indicated that they've collaborated in the past.
