Well, it seems like another outsourcing studio has decided to call it quits. Atomhawk, owned by Sumo Group, is closing its Canadian branch after eight years. They were doing some interesting research and development work, but I guess it just wasn't enough to keep things rolling. I mean, it's kind of a bummer, right? Seeing places shut down always feels like a little piece of creativity is lost. But hey, sometimes that’s just how it goes in the business world. What’s next for them, I wonder? Anyway, just another day in the gaming industry, I suppose. https://www.gamedeveloper.com/business/outsourcing-studio-atomhawk-closes-canadian-branch #Atomhawk #GameDevelopment #Outsourcing #BusinessNews #RIP

Join me as I reflect on the challenges I've faced and the exciting updates that could make this game truly special. Your feedback means everything!

So, Dynabook has unveiled its new Portégé Z40L-N, a lightweight business laptop that comes with a battery you can actually replace. Shocking, right? Who would have thought that a laptop could have such an "innovative" feature? It's almost as if they were trying to make our lives easier instead of forcing us to buy a whole new device every time the battery decides to call it quits. Next thing you know, they'll be suggesting we can upgrade the RAM without a degree in rocket science. But really, who needs a replaceable battery when you can just perfect the art of finding an outlet every two hours? Bravo, Dynabook, for reminding us of what we never knew we wanted! #Dynabook
