@remapradio.bsky.social Did you guys know that there's an American skater at the Olympics in Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown cosplay skating to music from the game? Kind of a wild thing to unexpectedly see on TV yesterday and I figured if you didn't know you should. www.olympics.com/en/milano-co...

@intothecast.bsky.social Vita means Life!

@robzacny.bsky.social You're gonna have a lot of people tell you in response to today's Remap Recommends that you should watch Peacemaker. Allow me to join them. You should *absolutely* watch Peacemaker. You should start today.

I commented on the Patreon post - right after where you stopped in your Signal Check was where I started to dig it a lot more. Void Forge has some good, moody, solitary Metroid-ing, and the bike is alright with me. Haven't played past boss #2 yet, though, but he was fun.

I have (and do love, after using tape to quiet the buttons) the RG35XXSP, but the slightly smaller size of the Flip and the analog sticks for PS/PSP games were too tempting to not try it for like $40

Okay, nice. I'm on Spruce right now and it feels surprisingly slow for a system that I think should be more than powerful enough for it. I know Knulli is working on a thing. I'll probably try MinUI - I just wish because I am brokenly maximalist that it did retroachievements and rewind and stuff 😂

@bb.wavelengths.online Hey! Random question if you have a sec: I just picked up a Miyoo Flip v2 in the most recent "omg it's so cheap" sale on AliExpress - are you still using yours? If yes, what OS are you running? Struggling to find one that feels good on it.

I knoooooooooow 😭😭😂

Dammit Lekon! I can't - I won't - I...

Recovery Mission, by MIDI Myers 15 track album

@midimyers.com So I just listened to the Triple Click live show extended cut and having listened to the show for years I had no idea you wrote music? Anyhow maddymyers.bandcamp.com/album/recove... totally kicks ass and I'm buying it, that's all. 👏👏

This was a really good read. Following. Thanks. 🙂

It's 2AM on a Friday night / Saturday morning, I am playing a knockout race in Mario Kart World on my new Switch 2, and I'm listening to Chris Kohler on a videogame podcast. Bliss. Like him, I'm almost 45 (unlike him, I was pretty pumped for this launch 😂), and this is a gift. Thank you.

Oooo, I didn't know they were different! Mine was stickered. Guess they underestimated the popularity of the pack in option.

I just listened to the last episode and it was so good! This show is so good! Bravo, sir. Immediate subscribe.

(Also this whole list is great, I just had to stop at that entry and voice my strong agreement. Good piece. 👏👏)

SNES Aladdin >> Genesis Aladdin all day, every day, will die on this hill. SNES Aladdin convinced me that animating movement in a videogame was its own artform and fluid character motion has been something I'll give free points to a game for ever since.

@bigjoel.bsky.social Not a Patreon donor so I can't comment there but I am a Nebula subscriber (and they have no comments): I think the kids video is *fascinating* and I definitely want a public version to share more widely someday. Thanks for making it and sharing it, even in limited fashion.

This sucks so much and I'm so sorry.

I don't mean to state the obvious but lying and overwhelming everybody with conspiracies has been their only go-to... ever. It put them in the White House. Twice.

Okay, for starters, how dare you use us in this fashion, I will not write your walkthroughs for you. ....but that's also because I will also be rubbish at this game. It looks f'ing fantastic, though. Thank you for bringing it to my wishlist's attention.

@kerrymcgrath.bsky.social HAPPY BIRTHDAAAAAAAAAY ❤️🎁🎉🎂

<Narrator> He would not. </Narrator>

Gamestipation / Gamestipated - the condition of being too full of games, but unable to rid yourself of any games. There are probably other syllables that work for the start of the word, here. Funstipated? Logstipated. Nope, not that.

I don't have the second half. Something about a laxative. 😬

Text

Correct. If the birthdate field contains corrupt or mismatched data, it defaults to 1875-05-20, which serves as a flag. May 20, 1875, is the day the international standards and metrics treaty was signed. Everything is a conspiracy when you don’t know how anything works.

I don't talk about my job much on social media - which will continue, as I no longer have one! Gonna take time to get sorted, but if you need web or software Quality Assurance, I will be on the market. Or maybe it's time for a change! Got something you need doing that sounds like me? Lemme know. 😉

I *absolutely* got the ones without any exposed buttons for exactly this reason. 😂

Dragonsweeper by Daniel Benmergui A roguelike minesweeper adventure

This is the best minesweeper variant I've played in a long time, and everybody should give it a shot. danielben.itch.io/dragonsweeper (Click the purple book. Pay close attention to things. If you're frustrated, watch www.youtube.com/watch?v=sLUs... for some hints.)

You're right, of course, and yet his voters are going to see this and think "see, he knows what went wrong here and he's gonna fix it." And it'll be too late and won't matter when actual investigation reveals what really went wrong, because he already set this narrative.
