The chintzy-looking M64 clone console of the N64 by a company named ModRetro has been released, I think, I don't pay attention that closely to shit. But as the great @frankcifaldi.bsky.social posted before, it is our civic duty to push back against this company and shun ANYONE who doesn't.

I picked this up at a thrift store yesterday not realizing it was a Harmonix game. Fun seeing people you know in the instruction manual credits! #RandomGameSaturday

Here’s the Japanese copy of Pokémon White I picked up in Tokyo around the time it released. This was before simultaneous worldwide launches for Pokémon games, so it was a novelty to play it before it released in the US. #RandomGameSaturday

Funny story about this: I bought it on eBay but the seller sent me someone else’s LEGO Speed Champions sets instead by mistake. We managed to reship and get everything sorted out but for a moment I was sad I wouldn’t get to see any great holes with Fred Couples

I bought a 32X at a thrift store a few years ago and found this gem while searching for exclusives. I just think the title is hilarious #RandomGameSaturday

The base game. That was before you could have a separate store page for demos though. I haven’t looked at that configuration, but I believe wishlisting on a demo page wishlists the base game?

Chris Chung @chrischung.com · 01/06/2026

I did an early pre-Next Fest, but I've heard it's better to set your demo live ahead of time so it has time to gather players/downloads/wishlists. That way you're on top of the "most wishlisted", etc. charts when Next Fest starts. Not sure if that's still the current wisdom though.

I think it was subconscious! 😆 I wanted to add some Game Boy details but decided to focus on the outlet and plugs

ANNNNNNNND Burgle Supply Company (Good Boy) is now out. Any RTs/Shares/helping to spread the word is appreciated. It's the silliest game made by a studio with a very silly catalog of things.

Steam page for Burgle Supply Company, which is probably the best game about robbing homes while mutant dogs chase you around ever made but I cant verify that.

Here's a step by step guide to stop Chrome trying to use the 4GB local AI model it secretly downloads: 1. Go to chrome://settings/system and disable "On-device AI" 2. Go to chrome://flags and disable all the flags in the 2nd and 3rd images. 3. Delete the model folder from your Chrome user data.

Screenshot of Chrome's Settings menu, showing the system sub-menu with the "On-device AI" option that's enabled by default. Turn that shit off.

Chrome's Flags settings menu (chrome://flags) showing the following features you need to disable to prevent it using the local Gemini model:
1. Enables Optimization Guide On Device
2. Prompt API for Gemini Nano
3. Prompt API for Gemini Nano with Multimodal Input
4. Writer API for Gemini Nano

(list continues in next image)

List of flags to disable local Gemini model usage in Chrome continues:
5. Rewriter API for Gemini Nano
6. Proofreader API for Gemini Nano
7. Summarizer API with Performance Preference
8. Summarizer API for Gemini Nano
9. LiteRT-LM for On-Device AI

Set all of these to disabled.

Here are some more high-res renders. I picked Joltik because I didn't think it was popular enough for anyone else to pick. 😄 Pretty happy with how it turned out!

A close-up of the bottom half of the card, showing the "Bug Bite" attack for one Lightning Energy and 30 damage, weakness, resistance, and retreat cost, and the electrical details (outlet, frayed wires)

A shot of Joltik removed from the card, as an optional "play feature". Its legs are fully posable

The first loaf is 100% whole wheat and had ~4hrs total room temp proofing time (with folds/shaping in between). The second is just bread flour with 3hrs during folding, ~8hrs in the fridge, and another 3hrs at room temp. I’ve read that whole wheat proofs faster but haven’t tested enough to confirm

And here’s the loaf from last week. Probably could have used some more proofing time, but overall pretty good

I say “fun” because I decided to cultivate my own starter for whatever reason, which was a long and sometimes frustrating process. But The Yeastie Boys are alive and happy, so now I’m working on my loaf-baking skills
