Walter Koenig never got to be on Star Trek: The Animated Series, but a few years ago, StarTrek.com made a profile for him as if he were. I re-created it with some flourishes as a tribute to a great actor and a great man. RIP, Mr. Koenig.

Hey, I'm Josh, and among other things, I made the Star Trek Title Generator at trek.epicrandomness.com, and I run the Trans Rights Screenshot Generator. Be excellent to each other!

Going to stream some SuperStation One Bomberman tonight, join me, won't you?
Hey! I can do this too, right now! And I've been able to since the 1990s!
Me, to Claude Code: “I have a friend coming over. Modify Pac-Man to support a horizontal display with two player co-op, where player 2 is Ms. Pac-Man. Make one button be a speed boost. My Mistercade cabinet is at 192.168.1.102” Claude, two hours later: “The game is loaded up and ready to play”
Ok, a group called Patch Clan finally translated the Famicom-Only Japanese release of Maniac Mansion. I have wanted to play it for 20 years and actually own a physical copy. The problem: is it AI? There is no disclosure, and it SEEMS human-translated, but the thumbnail definitely IS AI, which sucks.
Ran out of space for the link: www.patchclan.com#/jogo/maniac... I suppose I can skip this, as I know the Japanese version is inferior to the US version in pretty much every way. I love this game, but if it's AI, I feel like I've waited this long, so it's no big deal if I let this one go...
Hey! The 2nd episode of MST3K: The Rifftrax Experiments is here! Wonder if I can convince my kids to watch with me? www.rifftrax.com/mst3k-the-ri...
CAPCOM ID got hacked. They said 'some' accounts had passwords changed without consent. They also said: "There is a possibility that the affected information could be misused to send fraudulent emails or other communications impersonating Capcom or related parties." www.capcom.co.jp/ir/english/n...
This is really cool. It uses the Internet Archive to make a fake cable service with multiple channels, but it's like 90s-era quality and has actual commercials and stuff. And of course, they have a Trek channel. Currently playing: Star Trek on the Sci-Fi Channel, Oct 98. spelunkr.tv/final-frontier
@bunnzo.bsky.social, Question for you: I want to try to play/master Adventure for the Atari 2600. I've never played it for more than a minute or two, so I am very unfamiliar with it. Do you have any tips?

This won't be a daily thing, but I'm streaming retro games on Twitch again with my SuperStation One. Feel free to watch for a bit if you're so inclined! www.twitch.tv/bean525
@scrollboss.bsky.social Hey, thanks for tuning in. I didn't have the chat window open, but to answer you, yes, I WAS having some bubble fun until I realised I didn't want to play all 99 levels right now.
It's another late-night SuperStation One stream! Tonight, we're tackling Neo Geo! www.twitch.tv/bean525
Thanks to the wonderful suggestion of @joesiegler.blog I've added some new Discovery templates to trek.epicrandomness.com!
Livestreaming from the SuperStation One again tonight, focusing on Arcade stuff tonight. Come and join if you're so inclined! twitch.tv/bean525
This is probably not the best viewing experience, but I am attempting to stream my SuperStation One without a capture card, using a script. If anyone wants to see this totally unnecessary stream, go to twitch.tv/bean525!
I know ERB is very sporadic these days, but I really enjoy the wordplay in this one. Plus, it's spooky season, so why not?
