getting really sick of my friends telling me the cursed blade is warping my mind. it's LITERALLY fine. i can stop fucking using it whenever i want. i think they're just jealous. like they know it'd corrupt them but i'm clearly stronger than its influence. in fact, i'm stronger than all of them...

As someone who genuinely loves the original Xbox and the 360, it's pretty frustrating to see how badly Microsoft bungled the entire concept of a game console once they moved onto the Xbox One!

Happy Jimmy Day

I should rewatch Top o Nerae Diebuster/Gunbuster 2 one of these days. I feel like most Gunbuster fans hate it, but I remember really liking it.

Oh, snap. Sentai Filmworks is releasing Heavy Metal L-Gaim. Better pre-orderer this while you can:

Runner-up, the right-wing comedy An American Carol. But I was at least going in with the knowledge that it would make me mad!

Alice in Wonderland (2010)

It's such a frustratingly bad adapation! This was really the final nail in the coffin for the respect I had for Tim Burton as a filmmaker.

I'm thankful the latest episode of The Chaotix Case Files references Vector's line from Shadow the Hedgehog that is seared into my brain forever.

In spec evo, there's a concept known as the "seed planet", a thought experiment where a planet capable of hosting life (usually from earth biology) is "seeded" with a few select organisms (and other starting conditions), and potential evolutionary-timescale outcomes of this are then speculated upon. For instance, what if there was a planet that was basically Earth as we know it except there's no vertebrates, and then someone adds a bunch of ducks? What niches would the ducks diversify into? Would any of them evolve into cool megafauna? Avian moles? Duckwhales? Interesting. But not what I'm doing here today. Many of you will say that I was so preoccupied with the starting assumption that McDonaldland characters are species rather than individuals that I didn't stop to think if I should, and I agree. Anyway this is my seed world - "McDonaldland" - about 50 million years after a terraformed earthlike world was seeded with classic McDonaldland characters for an advertising stunt, part of a promotional tie-in with a movie about alien planets or something (records from this era are spotty at best). This stunt directly led to increased sales of McDonald's products for many Earth-years, but once the promotion was over the planet was filed away and forgotten about for around 50 million years. We've got a towering therizinobirdie having a snack, a bunch of western lowland gorilmaces hanging out on a nice warm rock, and some apex predator descendents of fry kids fighting over a burgersnake, which we can tell is unhappy to be considered a meal. A trio of hamburlugos glide among the treetops, eyeing up the other burgersnakes as they slither away. Sadly, none of the lineages descending from clowns made it this far. McScientists documenting this ecosystem after its rediscovery by McDonald's archivists are intrigued to note the example of convergent evolution on display with the "sentient hamburger" seed-species evolving into snakes. Anacondas and buns, together at last.

Hello again spec evo enthusiasts! Here's a "seed world" scenario where a planet is terraformed for McDonaldland characters to inhabit for a promotional stunt, after which McDonald's abandons the planet for 50 million years.

To definitively answer the burning question I know has been keeping everyone up at night:

Yes, NSO Virtual Boy is compatible with TOOL 10,000 Days. And it looks amazing.

MC Hammer tries KFC Honey BBQ fried chicken. Spontaneous dance party erupts.

The ‘bel’ in ‘decibel’ is for Alexander Graham Bell.

Since the ‘B’ in 'dB' is a name-derived unit, it is capitalized when abbreviated.

I appreciate how Sega pitched Parlour Games for the Master System as a "Family Fun" title, with box copy that describes how much your mom will love throwing darts, and so on.

But what's the first thing you see when you start the game? A woman in Playboy bunny attire.

(And hey, Compile made this!)

What could go wrong using AI to help stage a few listing photos?

(1/11) If you live in NY, you’ve probably started seeing a new warning: “THIS PRICE WAS SET BY AN ALGORITHM USING YOUR PERSONAL DATA.” This mandatory disclosure went into effect late last year, and it’s the first attempt by a US state to grapple with a new generation of surveillance pricing.

This looks like the entrance to an optional challenge-dungeon.

Food for thought: Given the conceptual similarity of these two covers, what are the odds that somewhere in the process Martin Goodman said "gimme a character like Batman," and got a guy based on a "creepy" animal who swings on a thread and fights crime because of the random murder of a loved one?

The game you are about to play is a product of its time. It may depict the PS3, which was commonplace in society. These depictions were wrong then and are wrong today.

nobody posted the clip anywhere so i went and dug the whole episode up

A medieval illustration of a hedgehog with grapes skewered on its spines

It was believed in medieval times that hedgehogs had spikes so they could roll over fruit to carry home to their children, which is not true but is a really cute idea
