Hello, new followers! My name is Justin! I write reviews occasionally for GameCritics! I also have my own blog, where I typically write about game preservation, media, and generally my life with video games. I hope you enjoy my work!

My smiling mug, circa 2018. Yes, I need to get a new picture!

Caught this littel one on the fence from my window today.

Just saw news that ICE is rolling around my state in Ice Cream trucks to snatch up kids.

I now have to be terrified of the ice cream truck jingle & my kids running outside. Like kids.

I just lost my nephew & now I have to live in fear of a piece of shit using an ice cream truck to kidnap my sons.

important note from libcrusher:

Reactivating temporarily to send a warning.
Since I got doxxed, it appears the same doxxing ring has targeted several other users. I learned that they were banned this week, only for Elon to, apparently, personally unban them. I feel obliged to warn everyone about my experience.

It wasn't just my personal information that got published. Someone, somewhere, got my passwords too. For my banking accounts, brokerage accounts, venmo, etc.
Most of which had different and unique passwords. All these attempts started the day i got doxxed, and have sporadically continued since.

If you know anyone who's been doxxed by this group, you need to have them change all their passwords on every website immediately. Ensure 2FA and any other security measures are in place everywhere.
And, wherever possible, document and report it. Frankly, if you're a lefty of any note, do it now too

If anyone was also a victim of this or knows someone who was, there are ways to reach me. I wish I could go into more details right now. But until that time comes, protect yourself.

I will be deactivating in 20 minutes.
Hopefully, that's enough time for the warning to get out.

I always knew companies treat remakes as straight replacements of the original games but it’s still galling seeing it said this plainly. www.videogameschronicle.com/news/capcom-...

“Capcom were like, ‘we have all of those remakes. It’s already the superior experience to those games’,” recalled Paczynski, who says he was one of the GOG members who led the project.

Long story short, an actual Nazi doxxing ring. Enough people reported them that they went away for like 12 hours and then Elon personally brought them back. The site is dead. If you’re still on there, go lock your account right now

The end of free Windows 10 support this Wednesday could be an environmental disaster, cutting off 400 million PCs from security updates and dooming millions of still usable computers.

The End of Windows 10 Support Is an E-Waste Disaster in the Making

In an example of egregious planned obsolescence, as many as 400 million computers will soon hit the waste stream.

This entire argument by Louisiana and the conservatives questions are premised on an erasure of Congress’ enforcement power under the 14th & 15th Amendments.

Literally swinging for the fences to wipe out the premise for the legitimacy of Congress’ power to enact civil rights statutes.

stellar work from @abbyolcese.bsky.social for @thepitch.bsky.social on the VITAL new documentary WTO/99, which could not come at a better time: www.thepitchkc.com/daring-docum...

Daring documentary WTO/99 wants you to rethink how we talk about protests

For a lot of millennials, the World Trade Center Organization protests of 1999, also called “The Battle of Seattle” are, if we think about them at all, a footnote in the history of U.S. collective act...

The guy responsible for forcing horrible smeary texture filtering on by default in GZDoom has finally crossed a line that the community cannot stand. An unfortunate schism, but hopefully this means things improve faster from here!

HiMyNameisChair 🏳️‍⚧️ @himynameischair.bsky.social · 1d

The short version: the Gzdoom team has finally had enough of Graf Zhal's shit (including but not limited to pushing AI code into Gzdoom).

The entire team has packed up and made a new fork of Gzdoom.
