Lots of folks captioning aurora photos like "for a few minutes we didn't think about politics" guess I'm built different, every time I'm out trying to see night sky stuff I frequently think about how much light pollution is entirely preventable with just a tiny bit of regulation

tetsuya mizuguchi truly, earnestly believes, with his whole heart and whole mind, that generic vocal trance from 2003 has the power to awaken humanity's shared consciousness and guide us to universal peace. The strength of his conviction is so powerful that it might actually cause this to be true

Patron Request Gauntlet XII continues TONIGHT at 7pm CT with an assortment of bizarre and interesting Windows games! Some of these are spectacular, while others are.....well... twitch.tv/retropals

I have been nearly run over by drivers who think that stop signs are for someone else several times in the past couple months in my quiet, relatively-rich suburban neighborhood. Narrow low-speed streets next to elementary schools don't even make these nuts blink

This extends so far outside of NYC and drives me insane that no one feels like doing anything about it. Also add stop signs to this.

Got a strange text message from a courier I'd never heard of telling me that I had a package delivered. Figured it was some kind of scam until I stepped outside and found my AmiAmi order. Now I appreciate the "big" couriers actually telling you when they pass off a package and WHO they pass to

inviting the neighborhood kids to check out my Baudriyard

worth emphasizing that the protection of pedophiles and the attacks on trans people are consistent, complementary positions from the media elite. transitioning is an act of profound autonomy, i.e. anathema to a system of oppression, control, and rape practiced by a cabal of powerful oligarchs

when you watch somebody lose in 8 seconds to a q-bee or get hit by some TOD you realize, they played this game for money. they paid money to play a game where sometimes you put a coin in the machine and that happens to you. a lot of it. and if you're watching a vod, probably for decades now

ok extremely funny that the horizon mmo has unreal engine sex doll character creator. total cultural victory for the guys that got mad about aloy's peach fuzz or whatever

Ever wonder why a Supergun has such a stupid (but cool) name? It was just a name used by Taiwanese firm Gamesgroup Corp, similar to later products like Super Wildcard & SuperUFO game copiers Raven Games (London) got their own version made to UK spec & called it Supergun Deluxe. It stuck 1/4

jeffrey epstein won't see your jokes about how poorly written his emails were, but your barely literate friends also won't see them, because they can't read. fire away

ok www.twitch.tv/doctorbutler...

Kind of curious if Crunchyroll's app makes any attempt whatsoever to algorithmically pick what show they advertise to you to "watch next" after watching all the current episodes of the show you picked, or if they just always show you a popular(?) shonen thing(?) they're pushing

got a vaguely connected playlist going tonight out of my vinyl crate. google these for a happier life

steam machine de la abuela

we gotta get like three VPNs deep with signal chats set to a disappearing turnaround of minutes to be able to use adult words instead of "unalive" or "grape" meanwhile our political elite are apparently just emailing each other plaintext "up for sex crimes tonight ?"

The GabeCube's ventilation scheme means you have more matte black faces to slap tons of stickers all over

While I understand people are skeptical of the Steam Machine as being too wonky to make a dent in PlayStation or Nintendo, I absolutely see a scenario in which it replaces Xbox, which does not seem to be difficult at this point.

Lot of gamers complaining about the lack of HDMI 2.1 support on the GabeCube are about to learn about the HDMI Forum

no it could never be, we could never idealize a hazy vision of a game we haven't actually played in four years versus the fucked current meta of a game we play daily *adds two buttons to arcade stick that are mapped to SELECT and UNMAPPED BUTTON, they have played us for absolute fools*

most people i know don't want anything complex they just want the ranma spring to be real

still want something that looks like this hunk of shit under my tv

The brand-name Steam Machine is not really interesting to me, someone who has already shoved a bunch of parts into a small form-factor case under my TV and who installs Linux on old laptops for fun, but I am curious if they can make it cheap enough to compete with the no-name mini PCs

Cool, lemme know when I can buy the Steam Controller 2, it's exactly what I want

hardest shit i've ever seen

I do feel a bit for the people who paid for Virgin Punk screenings without knowing it's not a movie, and the messaging should definitely have been clearer, but cmon we need a bit of grift to fund Umetsu's team locking themselves in the basement for 23 years so that they can finish it

Artdink announces ARTDINK GAME LOG catalog title ports for Switch, PC Artdink has announced ARTDINK GAME LOG, a project to port and re-release games  previously developed by Artdink onto modern hardware. The first title, Tail of the Sun, will launch for Switch and PC via Steam on December 16 in…

Is it a little chilly in your apartment, but turning on the heat seems like a waste? Perfect solution: grab an old laptop and build something from source on it. You'll be nice and toasty in no time

whether games are action or turn based; developed in america, japan or china; whether they're on steam or console or gacha games you play on your phone; have an audience of millions or an audience of double digits; what's important is that games are about choosing one from a list of three things

I wrote more words about how it feels to be a translator watching the games press report on AI and labor, coming from a field that's fought these battles for decades. It may look like I'm beating up on one outlet, but it's not about them; I've been trying to write this for me and my peers all year.

Sony sitting here like, OK, we know our console that nobody is buying domestically is too expensive, maybe we can move the needle five years in with a language-locked version. Have you tried making games people would like to buy

When will THEY be thanked for THEIR service? @theonion.com

So was this entire stream an excuse to run a new trailer for the Sony-published Marvel fighting game

Ahahaha they're making a version of the weird roguelite with licensed Blazblue sprites but with Blazblue lore

"NO the sprite on the right is not just the best possible digital representation of the figure on the left!!!! the sprite is your physical form that is just a tool to move through the world that is a shadow cast by the unattainable ideal form of the soul!!!"

Hard to think of a better expression of the Sony PlayStation brand than spending less than five minutes in the "State of Play Japan" stream before switching from games by Japanese developers to games using Japan/anime as Aesthetics

Insanely sick to find hidden in the TIFF for Jumping Flash 2's cover art, a sketch depicting the intended layout

full disclosure: the brawl stars tcrf article has been deleted due to a cease & desist. you can find the text of the notice on that page. i've reached out in hopes a human might see this and move to retract it, but in the mean time, RIP

Thinking about it, I'm not sure I've actually bought any PlayStation 5 games. I've bought PlayStation 4 games that run much better on the PS5, and I've played betas for games that were only on console or have kernel-level anticheat on PC, but no PS5 games. This console really was a waste of money

I will stand by, this remains the funniest mistranslation in manga localization history

this has to be the single greatest image in the history of sports

There's a real split between the people who read the headline and the people who know softbank well enough to click through

hardest decision ive ever had to fucking make in this game dude. fuck. shit.
