Occasionally we get tiny Goldcrests in the garden, hunting for insects amongst the evergreens. They’re resident in Britain, but some Goldcrests cross the North Sea to escape the harsher continental winters; people used to believe they rode on the backs of migrating Woodcocks. (watercolour) 🐡🪶

Good news! That study was retracted because they made a coding error that severely overcounted the number of men leaving their sick wives. (Non-responses were counted as divorce in couples where the wife was sick, but not in couples where the husband was sick.) retractionwatch.com/2015/07/21/t...

To clarify, there's nothing in this game that wouldn't pass muster in an M-rated film. There are people spreading malicious rumors about it, claiming that it is more extreme. It reminds me of Night Trap, supposedly one of the most transgressive games of its age. Reality: Milder than Power Rangers.

This is Coe Fen in Cambridge, a watercolour drawing from 1998. The tower in the middle distance is the Pitt Building and the other tower is the United Reform Church. This was done on the spot with watercolour and Indian ink. #art #watercolour #Indianink #Cambridge

Let's see what those cheeky elves were up to last ni- -WTF?! Playing console games when I have a perfectly good gaming PC?? 🤮

“Someone with a 1-hr car commute needs to earn 40% more to be as happy as someone with a short walk to work. On the other hand, if someone shifts from a long commute to a walk, their happiness increases as much as if they’d fallen in love.” #CityMakingMath 50 reasons to want more walkable cities.

Very normal sketchbook day thanks

Trying to do something on the cheap that ends up taking way more time and money than not doing it at all is what’s called a Zeebo. As in, this was the dumbest idea since the Zeebo.

My YouTube channel is now 17 years old. I started it on October of 2008 and these are the very first videos I ever uploaded. Blurry ass Doom 2 playthroughs recorded directly through DOSBox and stretched to like 16:10 or something.

DOS archaeology ain't much, but it's honest work.

Australians, please raid your Uncle's old PC in his shed, and help me find a copy of this to archive. #Australia #AFL #DOSGaming #Wolfenstein #RetroGaming #MSDOS #RetroComputing

Received a new #GENBA review & I'm in tears 😭

I saw some cool #fungi walking back home from the grocery store.

Fuck yes to this

I really hate the term "sideloading". I preferred the original term, which was "installing software on a computer that you own"

In Soviet Russia, you eat xenomorph. (ChatGPT 5)

"Dude. A.I. is inevitable. Get over it." 1. No it isn't. 2. Even if it were? I'd still say "Fuck A.I." and refuse to interact with it. I will lock myself off to modern media in a heartbeat if it becomes truly unsvoidable. I have YEARS of shit to catch up on. 3. Grow a fucking backbone.

This is a pathetic statement and I’m begging every journalist to rip it to shreds

My favorite dumb feature we've added to Selaco has to be: Kicking around bullet casings. It adds nothing to the game other than smiles :)

Boldly growing where no spore has grown before.

The New York Times’ report on Ukraine’s Kursk operation ignores many key facts, presenting them without proper context. Here’s what actually happened ⬇️ united24media.com/opinion/what...

This visualization of the history of the Latin alphabet is cool. uclab.fh-potsdam.de/arete/en

It's definitely quite good.

Is this what will finally get Gamers™ to understand why every single time I see "historical footage of [place] REMASTERED 60FPS" I die a little inside?

I've written a tool to pack and unpack the data files from the 90s MS-DOS game Shuttle: The Space Flight Simulator. github.com/yuv422/shutt... Now I can tick off my goal of launching a Boeing 747 aircraft into orbit!! 😂 #dosGaming #spaceShuttle #retroGaming

MtPain27's community project megaWAD is out today and I really like the theme of this one. It's a tribute to Drake O'Brian of Team TNT, who sadly passed away a year ago. www.doomworld.com/forum/topic/...

So for your entire childhood you were compelled to take a loyalty oath every day and you now you think the country has a liberty problem?

Someone asked me what a very selfish, mundane wish of mine would be. After some thought: a secret underground airplane hangar in the street in front of my place where the trees swing outwards for the secret elevator that brings up an airplane (included in the wish obv). Basically Thunderbird 2.

Yes, I've seen the account that alleges to be from someone at a literary agency, making fun of queries that come through the door. If real, it's shitty, unethical behavior, also, I just wrote a best-selling book about the moon turning to cheese, so fuck anyone shaming writers for "out there" ideas.

This song is in an SMW hack called Entropy and it's so damn good. Plays great on the GUS.

This #gorilla shows impressive balance as it reaches for leaves, standing on one foot like a #ballerina. Gorillas are known for their remarkable agility and strength, and this moment highlights their ability to move gracefully despite their size.

It has come to my attention that most of bluesky has never laid eyes or ears on the greatest full motion video intro in game history. I am here to remedy this.

Haha! Love this letter from Douglas Adams to his US editor about not Americanising the text of Hitchhiker's Guide. 🐋🌸
