Digital Distribution Tidbits

2 years, 4 months ago

Dark Messiah (from Ubisoft) will be available on Steam (it is in the Source engine, for those that don't know, and is a weird FPS in an old school RPG setting). Windows Marketplace is relaunched out of the labs just in time for the Vista RC1. Marketplace includes this new Digital Locker system in coordination with major digital distributors. Digital Locker offers the same promise/protection that Xbox Live Marketplace kindly provides: if you pay for it, you should be able to redownload it.

Digital distribution is well on its way to the mainstream, and I'm glad for it.

Random Domestics

I lost one of my bottle openers... the LEO (Louisville Eccentric Observer) swag bottle opener fell off my key chain for what appears the last time, as I haven't seen it in a couple of days. It shall be missed.

I have a large stack of bowls in my apartment. My school set has 4, now somewhat chipped, bowls. The three bedroom apartment in the summer (same complex, same corporate housing supplied furnishings) had only 4 bowls for the three of us (I think we finally asked and got a few more towards the end). This two bedroom apartment has an excellent number of bowls for just me and even more spoons...
