A friend asked me about the time the original author of sonic.exe tried to fake his death to get out of refunding me $20 for a commission he owed me and I realized I’ve never shared that story here on Bluesky

you can tell Claude writes great code because every website in 2026 has an ever-increasing frequency of timeouts, blank pages, weird errors, and downtime. imagine a carpenter telling you "use this or get left behind" and they hand you a hammer that hits your hand instead of the nail 20% of the time

While we wait on the DDoS mitigation to end (there's nothing we can do but wait), we've stood up a temporary landing page with an explanation of what's going on. Hope to see you again soon! tcrf.net

The Cutting Room Floor
Server offline

Welcome to The Cutting Room Floor, a wiki about cut, unused, and left over content in video games. Unfortunately, our server is currently offline due to a DDoS attack.

We'll be back as soon as possible; the server is online and healthy, but traffic to it has been blocked until the DDoS subsides.

For updates, check @tcrf.net on Bluesky. Unfortunately, we're no strangers to scrapers/AI bots and DDoS traffic...

In the mean time, consider checking out our Discord server, or support us via Patreon or Ko-fi.
This is all really stupid

This DDoS seems to have been triggered by someone using Claude Code and getting banned from the site for it, intentionally evading that ban to make up a fake story about their LLM wiping their entire OS, and then firing off multiple abuse reports to our host.

It may not surprise you that this guy has some interesting thoughts on consent, or that he has multiple blog posts in which he brags about poisoning LLMs to win championships or flooding a social network with spam to give himself 1,000,000 followers.

Why are AI people always like this.

this is a real bummer to see from someone i looked up to, and what a rancid take it is. the stuff on our site was not "free", that's all hard work people had to put in to discover *and document* it. and hosting it sure isn't free!

I've grown to dislike TCRF recently as they rely entirely on the community for their information, yet they've got a bug up their ass about bots scraping their site for info. They want content for free, but they don't want to share it.

Given recent conversations elsewhere, I want to clarify:

I respect the the concept of TCRF and I wish them continued success. This is not a hate post. I shouldn't have said "dislike TCRF" as it implies I have something against the site itself; I don't. I'm just not fond of some of the recent choices they made.

Due to the demo programs in the Japanese and PAL versions (not USA) of Sonic CD being built off of a prototype, they retain the logic for enabling debug mode by pressing start on player 2's controller. You can do this so that you don't need to enter the code in the sound test.

To clarify, this is how it works in the original version as well. The entire platform is copied to the VDP's window plane, erased from Plane A, then Plane A scrolls up and offscreen. Then finally, the platform is copied back to plane A and the window plane is disabled.

Forbes article on a controversy regarding a Netflix documentary about the final season of Stranger Things. In the documentary, a browser tab with the show's script is seen next to three other tabs, which appear to display the ChatGPT logo.

Excerpt from the article:

Yeah, that's the most likely explanation for the weird color order, but it's wild that they didn't just throw in a replacement Nemesis blob for the bird. It would've only taken up a couple hundred bytes. It's *not* for the title card as one might guess, code was added that picks green specifically.

"The colors are not a problem. In fact, Knuckles in Sonic 2 takes the original Sonic & Knuckles sprites and passes them through a table to rearrange the colors to the ones Sonic 2 uses, so they could have easily used the same approach for Sonic 1!" Let's examine that claim, shall we? 1/12

This is actually a testament to how bad humans are at understanding cause and effect, I think. Most people understand that the printer said "I am a person" because someone wrote down that sentence on a text file and printed it. Fewer people understand that the AI chatbot says "I am a person" (1/2)
