『転生したらSpiders Georgになって蜘蛛1万匹を食うチートスキルでなんと平均をめちゃくちゃにした件』

My 9 movies #My9Movies my9movies.net/en/share/368... I realized that I've seen well over a thousand films in my lifetime, which I guess is not normal. I watch one or two films every week. But these are definitely the ones that really shaped me.

QTP with a game that has a 10/10 soundtrack. Remember Me's soundtrack combines a symphonic score with electronic manipulations to distort and transform it, a perfect complement to a game about altering memories. It's also very dynamic, adding and dropping segments to each track as you play.

Some of the comments about affected communities I saw in the wake of Sony’s announcement to kill discs made me want to investigate further. So I did, and what I learned was complicated, interesting, and often not what I expected. Super happy with this one, please have a read!

The current market for computer hardware has made me much more diligent about cleaning and maintaining my computer. My computer outperforms the Steam Machine and cost less to build in 2020 than the Steam Machine does today. I don't really want to think about a hardware failure.

Ever wanted to see the script that the voice actors used in a Contra game? Now you can! The development used game script for Neo Contra on the PS2 has annotations, cast and character information, and storyboards. Check it out! archive.org/details/neo-...

My Switch 2 arrived today, and there was clearly only one correct game to play first on Mar 10.

...thanks, Kirkland chicken broth box?

Interesting how IGN has updated their Forza Horizon 6 gameplay video description. I think whoever is doing marketing for Forza Horizon 6 is having a very bad day.

#My9Games from my9games.com. I went for the ones that truly shaped me, rather than just favourites. For instance, I think Civilization IV is better than Civilization II, but II's Civilopedia is probably responsible for my choice to get a history degree. No particular order.

I'm not sure I actually like Firefox, but I think I dislike it the least of any modern web browser.

My 5.25" internal BD drive for my computer has a problem where it won't reliably open when it's empty, but has no issues when there's a disc inside. I have therefore found the ideal disc to use as a permanent resident: one that's professionally manufactured, commonplace and valueless, and useless.

I'm having a great time with Ninja Gaiden 4. It occupies an interesting triple middle ground between Itagaki NG design (enemies are extremely aggressive), Sigma (reduced enemy counts, more enemy HP), and Platinum (perfect dodges and parries). Izuna Drop into Ultimate Technique feels so good.

And that's Hollow Knight completed. Incredible game. Sure didn't feel like 30+ hours!

Just used ExplorerPatcher to remove the rounded corners in Windows 11 (and, for consistency, figured out the css tweak to do the same on my Ubuntu laptop). Windowed rectangular image + rounded corners = cropped image. "But it's only a few pixels!" I don't care, stop it. Objectively wrong design.

If I didn't have Fortnite Crew, I'd be cancelling now. Even with that, I'm making a list of games to finish and then re-evaluate continuing my subscription.

And bit the bullet and updated my primary desktop to Windows 11 due to the #Endof10. That was surprisingly pain free. Only two showstopping errors that required me to search for forum posts to get solutions and continue onwards. Sadly, I count that as pretty good by modern computing standards.

With the #Endof10 approaching, I put Ubuntu on my aging Acer Switch 2-in-1. Tried OpenSUSE, Fedora, and Zorin, but only Ubuntu played nice with the touchscreen and automatically called up an on-screen keyboard when in tablet mode, so that's what I'm going with.

"Nominee who does not believe in implicit right to privacy gets personal demonstration in the implications of his belief." Conservatives only understand things when they get directly affected and still somehow missed the object lesson (apart from the band-aid legislation around rental records).

Tried out #Ludocene. Took me 30 cards before it gave me anything that even approached being an action game, and it was Hades, and then it was just endless roguelites after that. I don't think anyone there enjoys action games. Maybe it's great if you really like indie narrative games and cozy games?

I got my first RetroAchievements mastery!

Does Microsoft understand consent? • No • Ask later

Never have I been less mad to die in Fortnite.

At last, the trilogy is complete. The third Valis collection is the cool one for sickos because it has the really dank versions like PC88 Valis 1 and MSX2 Valis 2.

Saw Sinners in IMAX last night. What a film! Embraces horror and music with equal fervour. Smart, stylish, and not ashamed of its genre inspirations. That one musical sequence (if you've seen it, you know which one) is going to live forever.

Tested out my new Anbernic Arc-S with the funniest possible first game.

Age eventually catches up. I came off of a search & rescue shift that was more eventful than I would've liked, and now everything hurts. This is actually the first time I've gone "I can't do this anymore" and it's actually scary to think about my own mortality.

The Truxton Extreme demo is actually pretty good! I'm very pleasantly surprised.

I have become a terrible landlord in Rune Factory: Guardians of Azuma. Villager is a big eater? Evicted! Slacker? Evicted! Timid but I need loggers or miners? Evicted! I feel bad but ya gotta make that bar chart go up.

This probably won't last long, but I'm currently #1!

Never thought I'd see the day when both of these games have basically flawless arcade ports on a single console.

Clarice finally found the ideal of man.

Last night I dreamed that I was in an electronics store, looking at a new line of all-in-one media players that could handle VHS, Bluray, and Laserdisc. Then I woke up and was sad.
