“FOR THE uninitiated, which includes your columnist, there are two things to know about video gaming. The first is that some things never change. For all the virtual worlds they can create, gamers, a mostly male bunch, like nothing better than to blow their on-screen opponents to smithereens. The second is that everything else is in flux. Gaming is moving from consoles, PCs and smartphones to streaming and the metaverse. It is not just avatars that are being shot to shreds. Business models are, too.”

“談起Kyrgyzstan的鬱金香革命，不能不提美軍在該國租用的軍事基地。這原本是2001年爲了準備入侵阿富汗而安排的；當時Putin還指望討好美國，所以沒有反對。到2004年，北約繼續擴張，納入了波羅的海三小國，這是原蘇聯的加盟共和國；從此Putin對美國的夢想完全破滅，美軍在中亞的基地也一夕之間，成爲芒刺在背，Kyrgyzstan隨即開始和美國討論解約。一年之後，Akayev就被推翻，流亡俄國，時機確實十分可疑。Bakiyev上臺後不到一年，俄國中央銀行對AUB動刀，又是一個巧合。此後Putin對Bakiyev不斷施壓，要他關閉美軍基地，這是公開的消息。如果美國利用AUB來牽制Bakiyev，也在情理之中，但是我沒有證據，不能確定。”
