I really don't understand console generations at this point. If the PS6 will be backwards compatable with PS4 and PS5 games, and you are an indie dev, why not make a PS4 game? Why does the number of the console mean something is outdated versus the power needed to run the game?

A thought: in jury selection, as the defense, attempt to stack the jury with incels to protect against high value loss of consortium demands that could resonate with jurors.

When rewatching old shows, a general rule of thumb for me is to skip: * clip show episodes * episodes where they turned it into a musical * episodes that rely heavily on dream sequences It's not 100%, but as a general rule it works well.

Historical societies are funny things: "Oh man, I'd love to see how Main Street looked in the 70's." "Sorry, the best we can do is the 1870's"

Zoomers like to shit on Millennials for their pretentious hipster craft beers, but they fail to see it as an example of local brands clawing back market share from mega brands like Budweiser. Would have been cool if this trend continued and pulled in other products.

I was almost late for work today because I was testing out my Santroller build on Rock Band. I was also late for class in 2007 for playing Rock Band, so I suppose I'm just honoring tradition.

If a subsidiary isn't performing, you try to reform it, then sell it, then close it. If it can't be sold, that usually is an indicator of its standalone value. I know people are upset about the Xbox studio closures, and its sucks for the employees, but honestly I'm not shocked.

I find it funny that the NES was known for smooth scrolling, and basically every indie release reverts back to single-screen gaming. I get why, but still. These indie releases felt charming at first, now it feels like slop. Start incorporating scrolling...

"Ahhhhh this game from 1999 has an AI driven fan translation, this is going to be pure trash. Don't play it!!!" The translations we got in 2000: image

More progress on my Santroller build. This is a PS3 Rock Band 2 wireless guitar. I 3d printed an new input jack as well as a mount for my pico. I started extending wires so they plug in. The whammy, tilt, pickup selector, and home button are still left to do (ran out of solder) image

I found a whole thread where people were basically coming clean and admitting how much they like Bob Seger. A friend of mine did something similar a couple years ago. Alright, what's going on with Bob Seger? Why the Bob Seger shame?

That feeling when you remix stl files and want to share what you did with the world, but realize you did such a shitty job making the changes that you don't want to show everyone how dumb you actually are.

Scrolling through Steven Spielberg's filmography trying to figure out what I consider to be his last great movie. I'm probably being too hard on the 2000s, but man the 2010s were kind of rough...

Money being fungible is definitionally true, but realistically not true when you are married. You can test this by bumming $20 from your wife's random funds jar.
