In honour of everyone thinking Half-Life 3 might be about to be announced (lmao), and me being the biggest worst/best Half-Life sicko, here I exclusively reveal to you the identity of the Gman

Credit card fraud Black neon tetras committed credit card fraud during a 2023 livestream by "Mutekimaru Channel" on YouTube. The owner was using motion-tracking software to turn the fish's movements into Nintendo Switch inputs, letting them "play" video games. 8 In 2020, the fish beat Pokemon Sapphire after 3,195 hours, a feat that takes about 30 hours for a typical human. 9/ 181 On January 14, 2023, Pokémon Violet crashed at 1,144 hours, giving the fish free access to the main menu. They entered inputs that opened Nintendo eShop, added 500 yen ($3.85 USD) to their owner's account, and exposed his credit card details on the livestream. 10) 11) Mutekimaru later requested a refund of the 500 yen from Nintendo. l12) "Fish eagerly read the terms and conditions. Many of us humans don't read the terms of service, but fish are smarter than we are" - caption from Mutekimaru in a video about the incident 12) The fish also downloaded an N64 emulator, set up PayPal, used reward points to buy an avatar, and changed Mutekimaru's Nintendo account name to "ROWAWAWA*". 13, After about seven hours, their movements shut down the Switch. 14)

I actually forgot how frequent it was until I watched a speedrun explained video last night. I think I blocked that all out lol

"So, just throwing it out there: our D&D group could really use a cleric..."

I have had this in my head for a solid day now and can finally go to sleep

I didn't mind that one so much because she only popped up a few times, though she should've been just the story beats. But if I'm stuck in a room scanning things to take in the environment and every 10 seconds it's "hey, Sammie, look at this!" or god forbid a "well, that happened", I'm gonna cry

Ok, all the Prime games had the hint system that told you where to go. But you could turn it off. I'm holding out hope you can turn off NPC barks telling you where to go. I don't mind NPCs, but if they sound like a redditor who's only ever watched Marvel movies, or they nag me, I'm praying they die.

Honestly, same. I would've thought remastering or at least re-releasing the whole trilogy on Switch would've made sense as a perfect lead into 4, but it sounds like they never even considered it

My absolute favourite game of all time. It deserves a remaster of its own.

Happy 21st anniversary to #MetroidPrime2Echoes! Released on this day in 2004, it introduced a Light and Dark World, expanded the Metroid universe with the new Luminoth race, and saw the debut of Dark Samus. It was also the first Metroid game to have a multiplayer mode.

I followed him for a while until I realised he was constantly on Twitter begging to talk to Musk about technology. If somebody like that can't see through that much bullshit, I strongly doubt he's worth listening to.

Wow. Thought I'd lost the ability to just sit down and read a book. I can only assume I was just reading bad ones, because I read through all of A Court of Thorns and Roses in less than 24 hours!

I gotta get the next one now

It's an artistic representation of a circulatory system walking through a kitchen, as drawn by Dave Gibbons and written about by Alan Moore. It happens a lot 'round here.

Happy There Is A Circulatory System Walking Through The Kitchen Day to all who celebrate.

Three seashells sitting on the bathroom windowsill

Found these in my dad's bathroom. Not sure what they're for.

I need that Lego Enterprise-D so much

I do not have the £350 for it :(

LEGO posted this cute video for the launch of their first official #StarTrek set today

That's fair. I was getting a similar kind of vibe myself. Best to take with a sizeable pinch of salt, I guess

Is the stuff he says actually legitimate for the most part? I've seen a couple of videos and he *sounds* somewhat convincing, but I don't know enough about the subject matter to actually know.

It's a great game, even in its early access state, and I highly recommend it. I'm not sure why I find this so appealing, but I keep going back to it for hours. There's a small world to explore, with a good chunk of depth to it. I think it scratches that imsim need for me.

Gotta deal with hunger, thirst, toilet, hygiene, sleep, mental health, and various addictions, along with having enough money to deal with these issues and not sleep rough, while having enough to renovate the apartments.

There's a deeper plot that I'm just beginning to find at about 20 hours in.

So when I haven't been playing OoT, I've been obsessively hooked on a game called Obenseuer. It's basically about surviving in a quarantine zone, managing to keep yourself alive and healthy, while also trying to renovate a set of apartments and lease it to the various people on the streets.

Ooh. Good job, New York. Mamdani seems super promising!

Beat that seed, started a new one, Hookshot 10 minutes in. I think it's apologising.

Currently at 7 hours and counting. My last seed was already finished at this point.

Nothing like an OoT No Logic rando run where your first Hookshot locks all 3 Bows, but is also behind 50 skulls :V
