"What do you do with the mad that you feel?" - This is an absolute master class in ethical and thoughtful communication instantly and lovingly disarming a bully. It's worth a re-watch whenever it springs to mind. Mr. Rogers is one of the best to ever do it. m.youtube.com/watch?v=fKy7...

I think the intrigue with big foot is not actually the hunt, that seems to be more like the introductory hook. It's rather: "What's he up to when not observed? Is he responsible for my fortune? Is he controlling something?". Basically, the usual strongman shit. Probably holds for all cryptozoology.

I trust this. Brian wrote Qud, so has definitely run the numbers. This is about as empirical as it gets, folks.

@tjblakely.bsky.social still had some gas in the tank after an enjoyable DK64CS run (Reverse Clue Rampage) so we decided to have another impromptu 5 Kong race, 3rd run back since the big break. Sorry I didn't get TJ's mic in the recording, will double check next time. www.youtube.com/watch?v=KeiD...

I can't overstate how much I love what @100thcoin.bsky.social does. His latest innovation is *swapping cartridges multiple times per instruction executed*, in order to beat games at truly absurd speeds. This required, among other things, making a whole new emulator: www.youtube.com/watch?v=pK7h...

Another 5 Kong race with TJ today, a surprising amount came back to me by watching a few runs. Lots of fun was had by all. I'm not sold on the 8bitdo stick for out of bounds navigation, considering switching back to the V1 GC style stick for next time. www.youtube.com/watch?v=mu4d...

On Sunday, @tjblakely.bsky.social and I decided to have an impromptu DK64 Any% 5 Kong race with @danyevt.bsky.social on call. I hadn't speedrun the game in 8 years and relied on muscle memory and real-time route coaching to get through it. It was a very fun time. www.youtube.com/watch?v=CX6k...

I'm having a great week all up

An image showing the back of DK Isles overworld in the video game Donkey Kong 64 from a higher perspective than normally seen in game. We see the back of DK Isle in the center of the frame, with a waterfall flowing down to warp 3 area. In the top left of the frame is K. Rool's ship and K. Lumsy's prison. In the top right of the frame is Banana Fairy Island. In the bottom left of the frame is Angry Aztec's lobby. In the bottom right of the frame is Fungi Forest's lobby. An ocean separates the islands.

Anyone know of a good s-video + audio distribution amplifier for N64 capture? I used to have one of these (pictured) but the audio channels started distorting horribly and it ran really hot, wouldn't buy again.

Top down photo of my previous "Dynalink" 4 Way S-Video Distribution amplifier showing the input (1x s-video/composite video + 1x composite audio) and output (4x s-video/composite video + 4x composite audio) ports.

I was hoping to get the second demo of Knight Shift out this year, but I don't think it's going to happen. It's going to be a huge one when it does drop, though. PC port, spells, new terrain palettes and names, map renderer optimisations, HUD overhaul, new SFX and music, and much more.

Games I've enjoyed recently: - Infinitode 2 (2D tower defense, good meta-progression) - Cavern of Dreams (retro throwback 3D platformer) - Halls of Torment (like Vampire Survivors with a Diablo aesthetic & a cool story) - Megaloot (inventory management roguelike with good build planning)
