If anyone's looking for a ticket for Gilla Band/Girl Band at Workmans on the 25th give us a shout, I'm selling my ticket at face value. Gutted to be missing it but it'll be a cracker! #ticketfairy

@conan-kudo.bsky.social Hey there! Was just wondering if you might be the best person to reach out to regarding OSS Lugaru? Just interested in creating a PR for it but would like to clear with a maintainer first. Thanks!

Every picture of Mikel Arteta looks like a render from a stunning new PS3 game you'd see on the cover of Edge circa 2007

Beating Shels to the league in Tolka with the worst draw I've ever seen. I love Football Manager. And I love Conor Carty.

I know Viktor Antonov was known for many things, but for me the biggest impact of his work was seeing the very distinct Eastern European environments of Half-Life 2 for the first time. At the time you just didn't see these kinds of things depicted realistically in games.

According to Half-Life writer Marc Laidlaw and Arkane co-founder Raphael Colantonio, the immensely talented Bulgarian art director Viktor Antonov died recently. 😭 He was only 52. He worked with Valve and Arkane on HL 2 and Dishonored, but also on the animated movies Renaissance & The Prodigies.

Fun fact: if you run XP in VirtualBox, the in-OS mute option doesn't work. ALSO, Bonzi Buddy will randomly say things if your computer is idle for too long. So I'm sitting here and suddenly I hear a terrible synthesized voice read me some jokes

Bonzi Buddy (a purple 3d rendered ape) on the Windows XP Bliss background, and he has a textbox saying "Do I amuse you, Foone? Am I funny? Do I make you laugh?"

every UK video game in the 80s and 90s was made by a guy named like "lord wensleydale" or two guys named "the chippy twins" and was about an egg with no special abilities going on an adventure and dying immediately. it was ported to the super nintendo where everyone hated it

My Discord client, Discord Messenger, now runs on Windows 98! (And also, 95, but you need extra stuff. Win98SE runs it right out of the box.)

Such a novelty to watch Pats play against an MLS team in pre-season than say, hammering Bray 6-0, but I'll take it yeno

Watching the inauguration. I think I'm preaching to the choir here, but it's very surreal to see this happen again. Fearing for my American friends with the damage that can be done with the Senate and House both under Republican control.

Thinking again about when we used the Football Manager editor to allow players to get 17th Century illnesses and injuries. Glen Johnson caught the plague.

Really wish sega had been more creative with the disc art for dreamcast games

A bunch of CD-R's with the names of pirated burned games written on them. The games are half life, GTA 3 alpha, crazy taxi, crazy taxi 2, jet set radio, space channel 5, and sonic adventure. An actual copy of the dreamcast web browser is there too.
