When a game drops sick euro-beats mixed with lore drops about the sunken 3DFX Voodoo-rendered world you're in as you play. “They call it… Aqua.” 🎶 📺: Archimedean Dynasty, Blue Byte, 1996 (PC DOS)

Holy shit

This woman is facing a copyright claim for her own music by an AI company that took her youtube page and copied her.

This is why there is no giving a single inch on “AI.” I do not give a fuck if “it actually is helpful for some things.”

Love this flick

My actual answer to this prompt comes from the 1976 Alan Dean Foster novelization of the first Star Wars:

A ramen shop in Japan has proudly declared it has become an official Warhammer retailer, selling Warhammer 40,000 and Warhammer: Age of Sigmar miniatures alongside noodle soup. https://t.co/ZYoME1kk4Y

I used to write the WaPo editorials on US-Africa policy, as well on as human rights and politics on the continent. To describe hundreds of thousands of deaths on the continent as “messy” is an absolute abomination.

Happy Easter!

Shimachō (縞帳), 1893 www.instagram.com/p/DUIn_J8Eo6... Shimachō are sample books used as design references for weaving striped textiles. They were carefully preserved because they served as valuable resources for weavers.

Masanori Miyamoto, who used to compose music for many Compile games (Guardic, Aleste, Zanac, etc.), has uploaded something very interesting to YouTube -- the original source sketches he composed on a synthesizer, before they were converted to chiptunes! Check it out! www.youtube.com/watch?v=3S_U...

This one has become a permanent fixture in my mind palace

FANUC needs to care that war crimes are being committed thanks to their robots & take action to prevent further complicity. Listen and let us know if you need more advice about how to get involved 🙌🏻🇵🇸 #StopFANUCNow www.counterpunch.org/2026/04/01/b...

This is an incredible achievement:

A snippet of an earlier attempt to bring over subbed anime in a big way to NA - by a Japanese company. Gaga Communications shopped around a hype reel of OVAs with new names in 1987 to anyone who they figured might be interested in licensing them. Bubblegum Crisis? Futurescape! #VideoBytes

It's Akira Kurosawa's birthday, so in honour of that, as always, here is that picture of him visiting the set of Kindergarten Cop

And they say Gibson is prophetic.

Another university getting rid of things you could only ever do at a university and replacing them with stuff a 13-year-old can do on a phone

Dodged a bullet with this one lol

I legitimately don't understand how nobody was held responsible for this. Like, I legit couldn't imagine they just said. "Oh well, and put her outside, but it seems like...nobody is in trouble for this?" This was the most I could find for any follow-up. www.inforum.com/news/fargo/a...

There's street photo exhibition demo organized by ZENKO today at the Temmabashi intersection in Osaka from 4:30-5:30 p.m. 🇵🇸 They are also fundraising for the Palestinian Workers' Struggle Union based in the West Bank. (Info about the fundraising project in Japanese: zenko-peace.com/archives/24067)

Organizers reported that 11,000 people (!!!) protested Trump’s war on Iran and Takaichi’s trash support of him yesterday. Here you can hear the chant 憲法守れ = protect the constitution (from Takaichi’s administration and revision). I keep checking the number cuz I can’t believe it; 11,000 is massive.

stumbling upon this image again and recoiling like i've been shot

It is insanely fucked up that this didn't get made

Saw screenshots of this game many ages ago on the RPG Codex, now I've finally managed to play "Jak rozpętałem II Wojnę Światową: Nieznane przygody Franka Dolasa". It's a 2003 RTwP RPG based on a series of Polish comedy movies from the 70s about WW2. Only released in Poland, Italy, Czechia & Germany

My annual #StPatricksDay reminder to use the holiday to talk about which immigrant communities are celebrated in public & which are told to leave their flags & languages behind them. & shout out to the generations of Irish Americans who despite being white for a while continue to fight for justice.

Probably a good time to repost a bunch of games that reject photorealism in favor of a more hand-crafted, stylized and tonal immersion. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Og6_...

elsewhere and everywhere. the world is unraveling

This house will become a shrine, and punks and skins and rastas will all gather round and hold their hands in sorrow for their fallen leader. And all the grown-ups will say, "But why are the kids crying?" And the kids will say, "Haven't you heard? Rick is dead! The People's Poet is dead!"

couple days since the 3 year anniversary of losing her. its pretty important to me, as a human, as an older trans woman, that i try to best honor ppl's legacy, memory, principles. threads like this can shed light but maybe never really get across the full scope, of a life. bsky.app/profile/area...

これ欲しい〜〜〜左利き用もある😭 キーボードタイプは指が届かないから下と横にボタンあるの最高なんだけどドイツ人手がでかそう…子供用もつくって

He looks like if The Matrix was about being cis.

Stealing people's work and then charging you a subscription fee for it so you can think as little as possible while playing a video game

I keep thinking about Tatsuki Fujimoto's version of Captain America. The shield covers his eyes and the star is hurting him. A lot of people are hurt by their dedication to America and refuse to recognize it

Paramount: “Let’s announce Max Landis is writing the new GI Joe movie, that will really wind up the lefties and libs” Lefties and libs: “LOL” (followed by helicopter jokes) The rest of the world: “Huh?” Paramount: “Uh tell Max we’re gonna pass” variety.com/2026/film/ne...

An easter egg in this game is that Karnov is hidden in plain sight on several stages.

When a federal judge (finally) put ICE officers under oath, they admitted that they are given daily detention quotas and rely heavily on a Palantir-supplied AI tool to select targets, without warrants and without enough evidence to obtain one. They simply go into neighborhoods and round people up.

www.youtube.com/watch?v=oauN... - The tune for your Friday evening: this is billed as a stock song for "corporate and industrial" use, but I feel like it fits so much better as the theme song for your RPG party climbing into an enormous blimp and taking to the skies on your grand adventure.

Let there be as much outrage from politicians in Washington when kids go hungry as there is when I break bread with New Yorkers.

This might be the greatest split-screen ever broadcast. They’ll play this in museums in future. (🎥 LCI 🇫🇷)

there was also a Stanford study that found that a surge in AI slop by lazy people actually created significantly more work for others who had to decipher and correct it this "I'm being efficient" (but not really) vibes well with the American obsession with artifice and appearing productive

The most disgusting combination of self-enrichment and failed management in the history of the entertainment business. deadline.com/2026/03/davi...

this game fuckin' ruled buy it ASAP I mean it's a bit weird/jank in some ways but don't worry it fuckin' rules

This pretty much sums the whole thing up
