Reminds me of a guy I worked with. He even started the occasional sentence with “contrary to fact” before telling me you can order super powerful quantum computers on Ali express that can run your entire steam library concurrently.
What’s hilarious about this assertion, is what the intersection of quantum computing and conventional gaming would look like. Quantum is, roughly, all about taking a vast array of possible outcomes for a system and collapsing all of that into a single, highly probable, result*. So running a game through a quantum computer would effectively “solve” it. So, enjoy watching the most statistically likely ending for every AAA game out there - no controller required.
(* “In linear time.” Which is fancy computer science talk for “many orders of magnitude faster than the conventional way.” But you still have to stack the math to make this work, which isn’t always easy or possible.)
