In Episode 123, Jenna misses an opportunity to make a clever joke about the episode number, instead opting to put it in the description: White Noise has advanced to the point where it can count to three! What wonderful news. Hell Lois from Corvus Belli returns to the show to discuss all the exciting releases in 2020, including the hotly anticipated N4, ITS in general, and Code One. CB continues to practice its new track record of excellent community outreach in the form of answers to questions that we didn’t even know we had. JT and Mike then wrap things up with an Aristeia discussion, which delves a little more deeply into their opinions on the recently released “Double Trouble” expansion.

Historia zatoczyła koło – znów komunikujemy się za pomocą obrazków. Tysiące lat temu ludzie rysowali hieroglify, a dziś – tworzą memy. To chleb powszedni XXI wieku. Wystarczy zaledwie kilka minut, żeby internauci w odpowiedzi na mniej lub bardziej ważne wydarzenia stworzyli memy, które natychmiast zalewają nasze walle na portalach społecznościowych. Czasem to właśnie z memów – a nie z telewizji, radia czy gazet – w pierwszej kolejności dowiadujemy się, czym żyje świat. Zapraszamy na spotkanie online z twórcą memów Maciejem Kaczyńskim z Facecji oraz z kulturoznawcą z Uniwersytetu SWPS dr. Karolem Jachymkiem, które poprowadzi Małgorzata Zmaczyńska. Po co nam memy? Za pomocą obrazka okraszonego uszczypliwym komentarzem obśmiewamy rzeczywistość, dzielimy się emocjami albo po prostu dodajemy dowcipu codziennym sytuacjom. Ale memy potrafią też budzić zupełnie inne emocje. Naturalny jest dziś lęk przed staniem się bohaterem mema. Memy to już spora część naszego życia. Warto więc zastanowić się, kiedy i jak zaczęła się ich historia, jakie jest ich znaczenie we współczesnym świecie oraz jaki jest przepis na doskonałego mema. Maciej Kaczyński - razem z Patrykiem Brylińskim stworzył kultowy na Facebooku fanpage Facecje i wydał książkę „Facecje. Historia coachem życia“. Absolwent MISH UW i doktoranckiej Szkoły Nauk Społecznych w Polskiej Akademii Nauk. Autor sztuk teatralnych i scenariuszy filmowych, humorysta kwartalnika Przekrój, aktor i improwizator teatralny, związany z warszawskim Resortem Komedii. Muzyk i wokalista zespołów Extra i Wszystko Będzie Dobrze. Facecje – fanpage z zabawnymi rozmowami postaci znanych z historii i kultury, śledzony przez ponad 70 tys. osób. Facecje mają też swoją odsłonę książkową („Historia coachem życia“), newsową (portal Facecje.pl), filmową (klipy animowane i aktorskie pastisze, ostatnio – utwór „Pato Emigracja“) i radiową (cykliczne Radio Facecje na Audioteka.pl). dr Karol Jachymek - doktor kulturoznawstwa z Uniwersytetu SWPS, filmoznawca. Zajmuje się społeczną i kulturową historią kina (zwłaszcza polskiego) i codzienności, metodologią historii, zagadnieniem filmu i innych przekazów (audio)wizualnych jako świadectw historycznych, problematyką ciała, płci i seksualności, wpływem mediów na pamięć indywidualną i zbiorową, społeczno-kulturowymi kontekstami mediów społecznościowych oraz blogo- i vlogosfery, a także wszelkimi przejawami kultury popularnej. Współpracuje m.in. z Filmoteką Szkolną, Nowymi Horyzontami Edukacji Filmowej, Against Gravity, KinoSzkołą i Filmoteką Narodową – Instytutem Audiowizualnym. Prowadzi warsztaty i szkolenia dla młodzieży i dorosłych z zakresu edukacji filmowej, medialnej i (pop)kulturowej oraz myślenia projektowego i tworzenia innowacji społecznych. Autor książki „Film – ciało – historia. Kino polskie lat sześćdziesiątych”. Małgorzata Zmaczyńska - jej supermocą jest mówienie. Nagrywała podcasty, zanim to było modne – Podcast RADIOaktywny oraz ZMACZNEGO. Od niedawna redaktor naczelna „SHEro” – magazynu pisanego przez dziewczyny i przede wszystkim dla dziewczyn. Kręci ją motoryzacja, nieznane historie związane z jedzeniem, psychologia i przekręty na Wall Street. Interesujesz się kulturą?

Last week’s startup funding scene was quite interesting. We had a total of 373 funding rounds, $8.4 billion total funding, 116 acquisitions recorded, and a transaction of a total acquisition amount of $30.7 billion. PayFit raises $79 million for its payroll service French startup PayFit is raising a new $79 million funding round (€70 million) from Eurazeo and Bpifrance. The company first started with a payroll service for small and medium companies in France. It has evolved into a full-fledged HR solution for multiple European countries. PayFit uses a software-as-a-service approach so that small companies can easily manage payroll and HR information from a web browser. Everything stays up-to-date and compliant with labor regulation. While it’s easy to build an HR giant in the U.S., it’s a bit more complicated in Europe as labor laws vary so much from one country to another. But the startup has managed to launch its service in France, Spain, Germany and the U.K. — Italy is coming soon. The company says that it has developed its own programming language called Jetlang in order to transform labor code into computer code. London’s LocalGlobe just closed on two funds totaling $295 million Seven months ago, TechCrunch’s Steve O’Hear reported that LocalGlobe had begun the fundraising process for two separate funds. The London-based seed-stage venture firm was raising yet another seed-stage venture fund, O’Hear said at the time; he also noted that LocalGlobe was also expect to raise its first opportunities fund. Fast-forward and today, the firm, founded by father and son duo Robin and Saul Klein, says it has closed both, having secured $115 million in capital commitments for its seed fund and $180 million in capital commitments for the second fund, dubbed “Latitude,” which it says it will use to support its “winners” at the Series B and later stages. LocalGlobe remains even more active on the pre-seed and seed-stage front, where it has funded hundreds of startups over the years. Among the very newest of these is a bet on Yapily, a two-year-old, London-based maker of an API for connecting enterprises to banks that just raised $5.4 million in seed funding co-led by LocalGlobe and HV Holtzbrinck Ventures. Maker of VR hit 'Rec Room' announces $24M in funding from Sequoia, Index The quest to create a social auditorium in virtual reality has eaten many VC dollars over the years. While plenty of contenders have emerged, it’s likely Against Gravity’s Rec Room has been the most creative in its approach to capturing a niche market while plotting how to build a sustainable business based on users in VR headsets talking to one another. The Seattle startup has told TechCrunch exclusively that it has bagged $24 million over two rounds of funding. The studio’s Series A was led by Sequoia and their Series B, which just recently closed, was led by Index Ventures . Against Gravity has a bevy of top investors that also participated in the rounds, including First Round Capital, Maveron, Anorak Ventures, Acequia Capital, Betaworks and DAG Ventures. The company didn’t break down the specific details of the rounds. Against Gravity was authorized to raise up to $15.4 in its Series B at up to a $126 million post-money valuation, according to Delaware stock authorization docs we got from PitchBook. The company didn’t comment on the valuation. Helium launches $51M-funded ‘LongFi’ IoT alternative to cellular With 200X the range of Wi-Fi at 1/1000th of the cost of a cellular modem, Helium’s “LongFi” wireless network debuts today. Its transmitters can help track stolen scooters, find missing dogs via IoT collars and collect data from infrastructure sensors. The catch is that Helium’s tiny, extremely low-power, low-data transmission chips rely on connecting to P2P Helium Hotspots people can now buy for $495. Operating those hotspots earns owners a cryptocurrency token Helium promises will be valuable in the future… The potential of a new wireless standard has allowed Helium to raise$51 million over the past few years from GV, Khosla Ventures and Marc Benioff, including a new $15 million Series C round co-led by Union Square Ventures and Multicoin Capital. Stride raises $2.5M from JetBlue, NFX for its guided trips marketplace Group travel — it’s something you either love or hate, but Stride, which describes itself as a marketplace for “experiential multi-day and multi-destination packaged trips planned by experts,” wants to change this perception. The service, which was co-founded by former Starwood Hotels and Viator executive Gavin Delany, today announced that it has raised a $2.5 million seed round from JetBlue Ventures and NFX. In addition, it rolled out its new TripFinder feature, which makes it easier to find the right tour from the more than 30,000 travel itineraries from its partners in its database. Moving on to mergers and acquisitions, VMware announces intent to buy Avi Networks, startup that raised $115M VMware has been trying to reinvent itself from a company that helps you build and manage virtual machines in your data center to one that helps you manage your virtual machines wherever they live, whether that’s on prem or the public cloud. The company announced it was buying Avi Networks, a six-year-old startup that helps companies balance application delivery in the cloud or on prem in an acquisition that sounds like a pretty good match. The companies did not reveal the purchase price. Avi claims to be the modern alternative to load balancing appliances designed for another age when applications didn’t change much and lived on prem in the company data center. What else caught our eyes last week? Shyp is preparing for a comeback under new management Once one of the hottest on-demand startups, Shyp shut down in March 2018 after missing targets to expand to cities outside of San Francisco. When it first launched in 2014, Shyp initially offered on-demand servicefor almost anything customers wanted shipped, charging $5 plus postage to pick up, package and bring the item to a shipping company. Eventually it introduced a pricing tier in 2016 as it tried to find new approaches to its business model, before closing down two years later. Fifteen months after shutting down, Shyp is getting ready to launch again. The startup tweeted today that “We are back! We’re hard at work to rebuild an unparalleled shipping experience

Episode 60 of the PSVRlife is live! This week we talk to Shawn Whiting, the community designer for Against Gravity, makers of Rec Room, the multi-platform VR social game.

Rec Room is the most popular virtual reality game. It's a social space where you can play dodgeball, ping pong, darts and more with people from all over the world. But when you're inviting everyone to play, how do you make sure that everyone is safe? What happens when a player attacks someone? What does an attack even look like in a virtual world? Cameron Brown, Chief Creative Officer at Against Gravity, the creators of Rec Room, takes us through the world of social virtual reality and shows how they've designed a system to make their game a welcoming place for all.
