I converted another Starfield screenshot into the anime look. Here, my vessel destroyed a House Va'ruun in a (cool!) fight amongst some asteroids orbiting Venus. Tonight's episode of Starfield Jazz: 'Mercy, Mercy, Mercy' (set to a soundtrack by Cannonball Adderley)

We lost internet for a day because of that Nor' Easter, so no streaming. I spun-up my Cowboy Bebop DVDs instead. It made me want to play Starfield again. SF hits closest to that CB theme of a close crew out to make credits. SF screenshots even look good with the CB style! 😄

This month's theory: September is yellow. I have no scientific evidence to support this claim, but it explains everything from my RGB lighting choices to the national mood. #Blogging robotjazz.blogspot.com/2026/09/sept...

I have been tired out on WWII shooters for a while. So, if you would have told me that I would become addicted to one in 2026, I would have called you a liar. But I have, and the shooter is called Easy Red 2. It is like starring in your own WWII movie! #PCGaming youtu.be/1g2QHzkcGa4?...

I finally watched the Minecraft movie, and unfortunately, I agree with the general opinion: it’s strictly after-school fare, unlikely to appeal to anyone over 16. The humor swings between pop culture pandering and flat jokes that never land. 1/

In Alligator Alcatraz, detainees were forced into small outdoor cages for hours at a time. In Camp East Montana, detainees report beatings from guards and denial of medical care. In Delaney Hall, detainees report unsafe drinking water and retaliatory abuse for speaking up. Unimaginable cruelty.

It's been a long time since I enjoyed a WWII hex-and-counter wargame, but I am having a blast with the Hex of Steel demo. It is like Panzer General, just with a traditional wargame presentation. Highly recommended! The Polish 113 Light Infantry holds the line against Slovakian forces:

I am 20+ years too late, but I finally saw the masterpiece that spawned 1000 memes, "Downfall". I don't watch much WWII stuff because I am burned out on this historical period that became an entertainment empire, but this one was worth it. Watch it for free: watch.shout-tv.com/video/598918...

As ever, with the onset of autumn, I have returned to the lush, dark skies of Elite Dangerous. To celebrate, I bought a new vessel: a Federal Dropship. So far, I like it. It needs a lot of upgrades and engineering yet, though. When I have the credits. 🫠
