- I haven't seen Japanese versions of Wizardry 6 & 7 on the Sega Saturn before. Pretty interesting. The maps are now 3D. youtu.be/j4d5rK_5rvg?...
- The biggest lie was that the dystopian future would at least be *cool*. It is quite apparent that there's nothing cool about it. It's all trivial, stale, and sad. Disappointingly boring.
- What I see when people tell me they regularly "talk" to LLMs

- The main thing I'm learning from the Disco Elysium documentary is just how many Finns worked on the game.
- David Lynch's "Blue Velvet" (1986) teaches men that if they want to get the girl, they have to do the chicken walk.
- Oh my god. Is Duke Nukem Forever already older than the Duke Nukem Forever development period? 😯
- Did it get cancelled because it made people's eyes bleed? Because holy shit. Looks cool af though.

- Pet-peeve: when Sega Saturn's quad rendering is described as "not 3D". As if triangles somehow make something 3D.
- $339.88 back then is $769.67 today.

Tons of devs use this, uninstall completely what you have, search for the sus files mentioned in article and only download from official site

- Not in Russia! Didn't even see the original Keen trilogy until much much later. Dangerous Dave 2 is a superior game anyway, and isn't shareware.
- The first id game I've played was Dangerous Dave in the Haunted Mansion. While it was virtually unknown in the West, it was installed on damn near every machine in Eastern Europe in the early-mid 90s.

- Lmk if it turns out that it was Jeffrey Epstein who killed MS-DOS.
- Oh shit!
- Set the groove Then stick and move like I was Cassius Rep the stutter step and left a bomb upon the fascists 🔊🎵
- The answer to this question turned out to be - trans people. Who are they going to blame next time when they learn that you can't out-asshole an Asshole?

- Reposted by Anatoly Shashkin💾So cool to hear John Chowning just won a Technical Grammy for his invention of FM synthesis in 1967!
- This song not only doesn't mention the film's title, but also doesn't mention anything else either. And as a result it was disqualified from its Academy Award submission. youtu.be/HMWBGaKs_UU?...

- Watch out for that first step - it's a doozy!
- In the twenty thousand years of our Mission we have heard more pleas for mercy than you can possibly imagine. Civilizations which saw their doom before them called upon their geniuses to calm us to no avail.

- Remember back in the day they used to have a cigarette commercial, a guy used to say "I'd walk a mile for a Camel"? Well, let me tell all you young people out there, the big man would walk TWENTY miles for a DOS GAME!

- Prefect timing too. Nobody trusts anybody now, and we're all really tired.
