Want to accurately recreate playing videogames in the US before 2005? Look into NTSC shaders. Not CRT. In their day NES, GEN, SNES, PSX games were played on mid-low range consumer TVs from Wal-Mart via RF signal, not $3,000 tubes designed for video production. #retrogaming #classicgaming

Wisdom from a Paranoid Old Fart:
People that insist on phone calls, in-person meetings that aren't recorded and hand shake deals? They know they're full of shit and don't like leaving paper trails and evidence of their promises.
Always cover your ass when dealing with these people.

Windows 11 is jacked up, bloated and constantly nagging me about using AI and paying for services I don't want.
It's so bad that I'm now researching ways to use Adobe Creative Cloud via Linux.
Congratulations! #Inshitification

This is what you get when a graphic designer buys a 3D printer. Notice how the negative space makes mystery.

Novo Nordisk executive Gordon Findlay passed out when he realized charging less for Ozempic means he’ll only be able to afford a new yacht every week for 51 weeks out of the year instead of his usual 52.

I remember we over-drafted once, forced to buy an expensive wedding gift for people I had never met. They were so poor, so strapped for cash, they had to give up their apartment in Japan! They just weren’t flying from the US to Tokyo enough times every year to justify the price. #eattherich

Just walked into a horror show in office bathroom. Imagine you had a mouth full of chocolate syrup and sneezed in the general direction of a toilet. This is gas station level of absurd, not business office.

Wreckreation. This game is bad.
The makers of Burnout Paradise and Need For Speed: Hot Pursuit have created a game with Wreck in the title, but you need to avoid contact with other cars to win races.

Dick Cheney is dead. It’s astounding how many MAGA cultists insist that Obama was in office between 2001 and 2008, blaming Obama for the Iraq war that Bush/Cheney started in 2003.
This isn’t hyperbole. I’ve had people say this to my face with full conviction and no irony.

Apple is going to host Formula 1 streams next year. I just assume that means the majority of live race coverage is going to be celebrity interviews, shots of driver girlfriends and video packages with people unrelated to the races crying about relationship drama.
