Booking a reservation through Seated will give you Lyft credits
Most ride-hailing and restaurant partnerships like UberEATS were designed to deliver you food, but Lyft's new collaboration is the other way around. The ride-hailing firm is now a reward option for Seated, a restaurant discovery app for iOS and Android that pays you for dining out. Whenever you make a reservation with Seated, you can get between $10 and $50 in Lyft credits, depending on the size of your party and your dining time.
Microsoft Kinect will work just fine for seated gameplay
One of the major points of confusion related to Microsoft's new controller-less Xbox 360 Kinect gaming system is the perceived lack of seated gameplay, largely driven by those early demos that required a standing player. At the time, Kinect's sensor was keying off the base node located at the bottom of the spine to create its skeletal models. As of a few months ago, Microsoft updated its software libraries to key off the base of the neck, thus avoiding any ambiguity caused by the player's motionless knees or feet obscuring a spine stuffed into the opaque comfort of the living room sofa. At least that's what Blitz Games Studios co-founder and CTO Andrew Oliver told Eurogamer. Unfortunately, the motion-sensing changes for lazy-bone play come too late for Kinect's early November launch titles (burdened with writing their own software for seated play) but "games going forward won't have a problem," says Oliver.
