I hope it's not the case - and to be fair with Facebook it's become so messed up you need browser extensions for it not to suck out loud.

Playing one of the most famous Czech Adventure Games, Hot Summer.

It's especially famous for its incredible dubbing!

(I'm playing it without dubbing.)

I turned off Copilot today (via group policy) so this is next on my list

BY THE WAY

If you've updated to Windows 11 recently, you're probably on version 25H2.

There's a new setting in Settings: Privacy & Security.

Scroll aaaaaaaalll the way to the bottom and you'll see "Text and Image Generation."

TURN IT OFF.

Just a small programming note for this week - it's MrsMG's birthday later in the week AND a work do so it's just Resident Evil 2 on Wednesday this week!

We'll make up for it next week though, with a bonus Thursday stream to celebrate 600 followers!

Thanks for coming to my child's birthday! Here's where I think your child can lift their game.

A kids book titled "It's Mine! Learning About Sharing". The cover shows a girl taking her toys away

A bright sticker on the cover saying "KIDS party bag fillers!"

Every time I hear Heart of Glass by Blondie, my brain wants to follow "once I had a love and it was a gas" with "soon turned out he was a Sega Bass". We've all been there, ladies.

I launched a retrogaming podcast.
The deep research and development secrets you know me for.
Structured lore shocks.
Laser-focused episodes.

It's not the news, it's not rambling and calling it "content"...
It's GODS OF RETRO.
Out now. Every Monday.

Sorry for the interrupted stream folks, kiddos needed me more tonight. Hopefully they'll sleep!

Forget Symphony of the Night, forget Super Metroid - they should call them Tails Adventur...anias!

Let's get back to the island and to Tails' Adventure!
