What a day to be an Alabamian. To be fair… Tubbervile is an Arkansan by birth. Which still puts me in a bind cause I’m Bama born ( now repatriated) and Arkansas raised ☠️

They did Puddle of Mud’s Blurry for AC5, so it’s definitely a non-0 chance

I’ve had the thrustmaster t.16000m HOTAS for a good while. Wish I could justify some of the crazy good ones, but it gets the job done.

I got jump scared thinking you stole my cat

A photo of my cat which looks eerily similar to Mr Judd’s cat. They are both dilutes tabby cats with very similar tabby patterns.

OPM 58 had a demo for SkyGunner. I played that demo so much until a few months later I finally saw a copy of the game in a store. It was an insta-buy and I still have it to this day.

09/20/2026 - finished the campaign for Project Wingman! I have the Ace Combat bug real bad while waiting for AC8. This game definitely scratched the itch. I got to play a few missions in VR but it made me a little sick. I played this game exclusively with my HOTAS and it was great. Great music!

09/19/2026 - Screamer (2026). Excellent arcade racing experience with kick ass music.

I completed the "Tournament" mode for Screamer. This game is definitely a top of 2026 for me. The gameplay, art, and music all come together to make one of the best racing experiences I had in years.

My body and HOTAS are ready. I have the t.16000m stick and throttle so it’s a noticeable step up from these but nothing like Thrustmaster’s high end stuff or VKB or Virpil

This makes complete sense seeing as how I was born here

A screenshot of a dialect map.

It has a representation of the United States with varying colors emanating from the US South East, centered over Alabama.

The colors go from deep red to orange, salmon, brown, yellow, green, light blue and dark blue.

The text in the image reads:
Your dialect map
Redder areas talk more like you; bluer areas least.

You talk most like someone from Alabama — about 53% of your answers match a typical resident.

Dolly Parton was universally loved because she was a rich person who knew what it was like to be poor, stayed down to earth, and spent her life giving back to others who were less fortunate. The oligarchs who don’t understand why everyone hates them probably won’t learn from this. But they should

I was definitely playing the 2015 game via Steam. I don’t there were special signups for it outside a Nexon account which seems standard for gacha/live service titles.

Vance the Happenstance @vance.coffeybreak.net · 23/08/2026

There were at least two games since 2004. One on PSP in 2005 which was a follow up the the PS2 game and a multiplayer F2P FPS by Nexon which was online from 2015 - 2017.

I’ve been using ChromaTerm for years, basically since I migrated to iTerm2, for my syntax highlighting. Previously I was doing custom RegEx which was a pain to maintain and add new highlights in.

I was hyped for Sonic ‘06. Both of the Adventure games were good and ‘06 pre-release appeared to continue what they started. Those trailers set to “His World” did their job. Sadly the game was a broken mess with a worse scenario. ‘06 damaged Sonic for me and I’m still not fully over it
