Electronic Arts announced a downsizing of BioWare yesterday that saw “many” employees being moved to other studios within the company while “a core team” continues work on the next Mass Effect.

A recent video from retro tech YouTuber Clint “LGR” Basinger dives into an aspect of personal computing you probably haven’t put much thought into—or at least I sure didn’t until now.
