Equate it to a pet. You could get a new puppy to replace your 10 year old dog. It would run twice as fast and maybe even learn new tricks, but it takes time to build the bond you had with the old one.
Ever been on a fishing trip where you had to wait a couple of hours of sailing with nothing to do and no tech to distract yourself with? Try and tie a knot in a rope that your mate can't untie.
This ethernet cable game is just a newer version of the same old thing.
Or (back in the day) in Dr. Brain, it would give you coordinates to a map in the manual and you'd have to use the info there to play, each time. Made replay pretty hard once you'd lost the manual
How old are these cables? Unless they're made from the recycled husks of classic game boys, this generation of cables might just be failing. Products do fail and are recalled from time to time, but in a situation like this it would be hard to take a cable back. Also, saltwater doesn't play nicely with electronics, in general.
I wouldn't be so pessimistic. Assuming this works, I imagine governments will subsidize it. Companies get their money, the infected get their drugs, and then our grandchildren don't worry.
Say you're hosting it for a music theory class. Anyone listening it can transcribe it (chords, lyrics, whatever). That should just about cover everything.
That was probably one of the best misdirection sites there was. Students and average users alike want to know what goes on in government, type in "Whitehouse" and get... Well, use the Wayback Machine, that's what it's for.
I got a Sega Master System for christmas. If you booted it up without a game, it offered a maze that was captivating. When it was evident that I had mastered the maze, I received Choplifter. Great helicopter game.

Sounds like a robot defending itself.

I thought it was a bastion of credibility, myself...
Guess cabbage is pretty complicated... Can only hack it with a knife
Is this any stronger than a standard windshield, or will the rogue baseball do it in?
All you'd need is one that ran on heat, assuming you're not into necrophilia.
That remains to be seen.

Good luck getting your body to replicate chips.

They could use something like this: http://www.thetravelinsider.info/roadwarriorcontent/sidewinder.htm. It would probably work for their purposes.
The problem is we don't have enough tigers.
Big Brother was British, wasn't he?

We don't even fully understand the genome, and we're going to complicate it further.
Spellcaster and Choplifter also, those were classics.
Has anyone tried anything by M.C. Escher? His stuff already blows minds in 2d. Or the site itself, did anyone mirror it?

The sooner they push the release date, the less time they have to debug it.
Very rarely is something with a 2 following it the first.
