i’ve already seen people report that these upscaling attempts on videos have resulted in flashing boxes & flickering that may cause issues for people with photosensitivity & Youtube refuses to make a statement on it.

A manga based on the life and career of Masahiro Sakurai is coming 11/18! Roughly translated as “Masahiro Sakurai: Making The World More Fun With Games” it focuses on his childhood, creating Kirby and Smash, and beyond. Only one volume though so definitely an easier read than One Piece.

I can't remember the last time I bought a game from EA but this is so incredibly dire. Fatal Fury was stuck with a weird DJ and a sex offender soccer star. What the hell are they going to do to EA's lineup?

I seriously think the Social Internet is 21st century cigarettes. Complete with secondary smoke causing a lot of harm in nonusers.

Thanks for the reminder @janemunday.bsky.social. Every summer, I repost this article DROWNING DOES NOT LOOK LIKE DROWNING.
