2000s?!?! HA! There is no way that photo's from 15+ years ago. You'd need a time machine or the fountain of youth for that to be from the 00's! That said, such an indie band album cover in the making!

Interesting presentation from Matt Delbosc at GCAP where he talks about using telemetry for remote performance monitoring and the data science behind understanding what they are seeing better.

Welcome aboard. Your early work and dev diaries inspired me to become a games developer. Thanks for all the great games you've made and knowledge you've shared. I certainly owe you a couple of pints for the impact you've had on me.

I thought you might find this article from The Atlantic interesting: "How Hitler Dismantled a Democracy in 53 Days" - www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv.... It explores how authoritarianism gains traction through legal and institutional loopholes and complements Mayer's themes nicely.

That's awesome! This is the series I had. I use to love pouring over these. Cost a small fortune when you're at high-school too. Tried showing friends at school, but they just asked if I could copy un-cracked games with it.
I had the same obsession with the PS2's EE, GS and VU manuals later too. :)

Was huge in Europe, but not the US. 🤷♂️ I'll have to checkout the @jesperjuul.bsky.social book myself. It sounds interesting.
