You gotta admit, it’s more than politics at this point... It’s a mindset, a lifestyle, and—more often than not—the individual’s entire personality. (What passes for a personality, anyway.) So I think it’s a fair observation. 😏

Not gonna lie, this is what happens when you can’t spank your kids—or hell, even more than mildly inconvenience them without CPS getting involved!—and schools are more likely to suspend a student for fighting back against their bully than they are to suspend the bully.

Huh... I’d swear that wasn’t there the first time I read it. 🤔

Jesus... I know that—when we first saw how shitty the FF Pixel Remaster’s UI looked in 2021—I said “Square-Enix - If it ain’t broke...give us a hot minute to properly fuck it up!” but I was seriously not anticipating that at some point they’d dig as deep as resurrecting Yuji Horii’s original Portopia Renzoku Satsujin…

I loved the TNG game for the SNES! I should totally add it to the SNES/SFC collection I’m (re)building... 🤔

No Star Trek: Bridge Crew? Let me guess, some bullshit about it being a VR game? Why, is that too Star Trek for you? 🤨

I don’t know what kinda town you live in, but stores typically don’t steal their inventory. Like, that’s not how the retail distribution model works. Even if the retailer knowingly broke the street date, that doesn’t magically make it stolen property. It just means Hasbro gets to string them up like a piñata and beat…

Even if that were true, the measures WotC took to “recover” their merchandise were beyond unreasonable. Merchandise, I might add, that the YouTuber purchased legitimately; Even if the retailer had knowingly broken the street date, that only makes them in breach of their sales and distribution agreement with Wizards,…

The hell are you talking about? Since December I’ve bought over 100 Super Famicom games and like 15 consoles, and I have practically no income. 🤨

Haha, that scene’s always amused me... That electrician... The pause and then the emphasis he puts on “The first war.” But also the emphasis Cooley puts on “rare bookshop” almost offended by the very suggestion of something as common and plebeian as some James Bond paperbacks. 😂 (At the same time being funny on a…

I’d be lying if I said I weren’t kind of annoyed, given that I did sort of want a physical copy but I’m flat broke right now...

Impressive, but I look at this and all I can think is;

Can’t speak to their choice of subject matter, but on purely technical grounds this looks really damned good. I saw the initial demo video in the Unreal Engine subreddit when I was scrolling my reddit frontpage the other day and it certainly caught my eye. 🤔

I guess this depends on whether you think IP laws benefit society or not.

Except how much he profited or what he was personally responsible for should be the issue, since he wasn’t the one in charge, or even the one making it possible, he was just handling sales! They’re making an example out of him because he’s the only one they could actually pin down with an extradition order, and that’s…

The inclusion of the Black Onyx shirt made me smile.  That was a deep cut. 😌

I’ve heard Pajitnov’s post-Tetris career compared to Michael Jordan trying other sports; “Jordan might have been a good baseball player, but no one will ever care because of just how amazing of a basketball player he was.”

That is so fucked up. How do they even justify that amount, is what I’d like to know. And what clownass judge let them get away with demanding more in restitution than simply paying back whatever money he’d made from the venture? I seriously doubt—if they’d set restitution at $350k—his prospects for paying that off…

The kids in AC are only able to become exemplary students under the guidance of a monster who is attentive to their individual needs. It’s a lesson that school officials could stand to learn, instead of trying to remove the manga from the library entirely.

Not a single mention of how good the soundtrack was. That’s how I know this is a hit piece. 🤨
