I love @last.fm seeing my music stats makes me happy! It would be really cool to see which clients I am using, I.e I listened to `x hours on Deezer` and `x hours on Navidrome`; even better if it could tell me about the device being used as well. #music #nowplaying #statsnerd #stats

This sucks. I know a lot of people who enjoy games on a not-so-great internet connection, and games are HUGE. So not having any other option sucks and discriminates against disadvantaged players. #Gamer #Gaming #Videogames @playstation.com #DeathOfPhysicalMedia #Deathofthedisc

Sad news, he was a legend, and the doom theme is instantly recognisable in popular culture and a big inspiration to me to make my own music. #Doom #Music #Soundtrack #Videogames #legend

This sucks. The GameUIDatabase is an amazing resource, and intentionally bypassing protections to breach the site's terms of use, scrap it, and cause the site to crash is unacceptable.

If you ever fancied a @bitmapbooks.com book, highly recommended you buy direct, they are amazing, it comes well packaged and protected so you get it in perfect condition (unlike a major online retailer), plus you get a digital copy free. (Of course, you also get the warm and fuzzies) #gaming #books

Doing some more archive.org digging, because what else is there to do on a Friday night, and just struck gold: a Wip3out press CD from 1999. High-res renders, concept sketches, lots of Designers Republic stuff, and some wild PlayStation hardware photography. Link: archive.org/details/Wip3...
