Wow, that looks bad, that T-Rex looks so "pasted in" against that sky, you'd think composites today would be photo quality by now.

I couldn't even make it through all of the trailer, it's a real easy skip.

Former ICE agent: My first day training new cadets, I received secretive orders to teach them to violate the Constitution by entering homes without a warrant. I watched ICE cut classes that teach our legal system, firearms training, use of force, lawful arrests, and the limits of officers' authority

Yep, all true. Yet something in my brain still says "Capcom, take my money PLEASE..."

I chuckled, but the CPS-2 platform is the home of a lot of the best fighting games ever made. Capcom supported the board all the way until 2019.

I remember the first time I got a CPS-2 emulator working right, it truly felt like we were doing something illegal spamming those quarters in with F5.

Happy #TillysGameversary 🎂 to Street Fighter 2 Turbo (1992).

Street Fighter 2 Turbo was the 349th version of Street Fighter 2.

After a class action lawsuit revealed all 563 versions were identical, Capcom executives were asked how they sleep at night, replying, “On top of a pile of money.”

You will be shocked to learn that Schanck was also the “chief learning officer” of Trump University.

New Blood publisher sale on Steam buff.ly/AiCnKJK

Yeah, same, even if this machine burst into flames right now, it's still the best value I've ever gotten out of a build.

Damn, it sounds like it might be a physical problem, trace between the CMOS and battery damaged or the CMOS itself has gone. It is my experience that most of modern PC's are robust against static discharge, with the exception of the BIOS CMOS. Desoildering those little fuckers is always scary for me

I'm on an aging X570 with a 5800X3D, and it's some fine wine, but my last upgrade was a 32GB kit of 3600MT CL 16, and ever since the last Win 10 update before EOL, I'm getting a "memory management" BSOD (but not while gaming) and I'm so terrified my RAM is bad I haven't even tested the DIMMs

Same, it's a horrible time to forced to build from system failure.
I feel for you.
My current gaming machine is aging real well, and I'm lucky, it can take me through the next year or two if I need, but I've realized what a board failure would mean right now.

FLP02 Retro-inspired tower chassis with high-performance cooling and expansion support

The H7 was the case I chose for my next build, largely because of the price to performance, but I've put that build on hold until it's not an insane time to build and I changed my mind to the Silverstone FLP02, mostly for niche aesthetics

The fact that 43% feel the state of the Union is strong is disturbing.

I guess Gen X is missing in the lower section, but still very true.

Tragic

The Airflow is a fantastic case, huge upgrade over the 500D, great cable management and lots of room.

But yeah, they really want you to buy a new case, the margins are tight in the chassis market.

🇺🇦 I am not a dictator, and I did not start a war, that's all, — Zelenskyy commented on Trump's accusations.

▪️Putin has already started WW3, and Ukraine is not allowing it to become global.
▪️Ukraine's victory is not only about territory, but also about preserving people and independence.

🇺🇦💔 Ukraine is facing a demographic catastrophe — the war has collapsed the birth rate and is destroying the reproductive health of Ukrainians, writes CNN.

Ukraine has already lost about 10 million people due to death, emigration and occupation,…

Screenshot of Symphony of the Night showing the opening confrontation between Dracula and Richter. Dracula's dialogue is edited to read "Shut up, Belmont. I'm having a breakthrough. A-L-U-C... My god! It IS Dracula backwards!"

I'm surprised this hasn't happened already.

Yeah, it was hit or miss with Shareware, but that whole era really stepped up gaming on PC, that gets big in 92 with Wolf 3D.
I got locked out of most of it though, as I wasn't able to build a 386 until 92, and our Tandy couldn't run half of the new games after 90. Loved both machines though.

Lode Runner (85) had such a huge impact on me because it was one of the few great ports to XT PCs (RIP Doug Smith), the level editor was genius and I hosted dozens of levels on my BBS that me and my friends made.

At the same time, my friends at school are playing SMB, Zelda, and Mega Man.

Sim City was released in 89, Doom in 93, OMF and WC in 94.
There was an entire decade of CGA/EGA PC gaming before then that was super weak if you were not into text parser adventure games. I was, I was a Sierra On-line super fan that got the mailer, because in a no console home, I had to be.

😜

As a kid in a no console home but did game on a PC during the CGA/EGA period, this funny but true.

I bought my SNES second hand in secret in 92 and kept it hidden behind a TV. I was a kid who got the Sierra On-line mailer and ran a BBS on a 286, but the PC had NOTHING like the games I got to play.

Alex Thompson @AlexThomp . @hollyotterbein scoops: Top Dem officials who worked on the party's still-secret autopsy of the 2024 election concluded that Kamala Harris lost significant support because of the Biden administration's approach to the war in Gaza. https://www.axios.com/2026/02/22/dnc-2024-autopsy-harris-gaza

Incredible that the DNC won’t release this autopsy because apparently they don’t like the findings. They’d rather keep losing than admit their support for genocide cost them.

Some day we'll all regret this & we'll hold hearings & rend garments & pledge "never again" & we'll be just as full of shit as we were last time.

Happy Mardi Gras!

There has to be a way to transfer save files. It's probably grueling and tedious though.
