There's only one place to start this week as we discuss the massive acqusition of Activision/Blizzard by Microsoft, its implications, and how it's not a metaverse play. Plus, the saga of a Dune concept art book bought at auction, the technical hurdles of software interoperability, and our reaction to the new Moon Knight trailer!
Ariel – this is one of the best ‘Favorite Things’ ever. Glad you’re part of the team!

I have absolutely no earthly need of a microscope, but the 7 year old in me wants to go buy one of those immediately just to look at salt crystals and bugs.
That magnetic kit from iFixit has been on my wishlist for a few years now. I have to restrain myself from making the one at work disappear accidentally.
emphatically seconded!
Thanks Ariel, love your contributions to tested and thankful for you sharing some of your favorite things 🙂
