We're cooking up some new/improved features!

Open to feedback, and things we can implement that would make you want to come back daily :)
Continuing to make improvements!

We're fighting some issues with our scrapers being blocked by CloudFlare - going to be working on getting our scraper verified in coming weeks.

XP System, Improved Review Notifications, and PR Dashboards in progress!

LANDO WDC!!!

Based on qualifying... McLaren has to do team orders if there's no melee at turn 1, right? #F1

For Oscar to win: Lando would have to DNF or finish 6th or lower, AND beat Max.

Outward 2 continues the tradition of not holding your hand, but is the brutality just as rewarding as in the original? See how development has progressed in our Outward 2 alpha preview. Read this article on TechRaptor

I've promoted @mrrandom28.bsky.social to "Guides Editor" at @techraptor.net, bringing more focus into our guides work as we work to continue creating high-quality guides.

Isaac has been full-time with TR for a few years, and I've been impressed by his work ethic and consistency.

McLaren really bungled strategy today, yeesh.

Lewis just looks so miserable. #F1

Switching PCs apparently resolve some issues I was having with Force Feedback on my wheel. Huge improvement, makes it so much more immersive.

Another solid showing by the Pacers, clear improvement game after game.

Question for Games Media -

What features would you need, to want to leverage a platform like @criticdb.bsky.social for your personal/professional:

- User Reviews
- Annual Lists / Favorite Games
- Outlet / Peer Follows (Reviews, maybe more later?)
- Other ideas you may have!

Now that I’ve seen Scott Foster ref in person, I can say I’ve seen the worst officiating in my life with my own eyes.

Still just so shocked by the absolute blunder by McLaren in Vegas.

Got notified of pretty significant price increases from networking, and laptop/desktop suppliers in Q1.

Already seeing increases in RAM/GPU/SSD's - recommend making purchases this year if you're planning already in early '26.

Unacceptable behavior from a President.

But the Good Old Party (of Cowards) won't do shit because they're hellbent on acting like fascists.
Just so we’re ALL clear: the President of the United States made death threats toward sitting Democratic members of Congress.

But they’re always claiming Democrats are the dangerous ones, right?

Just got notified of open enrollment at work. Because our leadership is superb, they told us what UHC wanted for premium increases this year, and what they negotiated with a different company, for a 20% difference.

I can't even imagine what the raise will be if the ACA Subsidies expire.

So cool to see the DB growth. Excited to sit down in late Dec and plan out the next round of outlets.
