Take me back to when BIOSes had the best color schemes. Hot pink, teal, and gray (with a touch of yellow) will always appeal to me.

I tell my cat “I know” when she meows at me but if I’m being honest? I don’t always know

Post a random game in your collection, here on Saturday. It's my original big box Myst! I still love Myst and the world it spawned. I've listened to the soundtrack so many times. It's just a beautiful game.

Oh, that's a big stash of patterns. WAIT. WAT.

City of the Wolves canonically taking place in 2008 is so fucking funny to me. How's Terry handling the housing market crash? What are Jenet's thoughts on Sarah Palin? How many Tea Party rallies have Kevin and Vox attended? How did Mai feel about Death Magnetic? We NEED answers, SNK!

A quick and easy way to start making something fun in C. 1. Clone this repo: github.com/mattiasgusta... 2. Download tcc and unzip it github.com/mattiasgusta... 3. Execute `tcc\tcc source\main.c` You now have window that you can plot pixels in - all you need to get started :)

If you're at a bit of a loose end this weekend, why not click this way and enjoy a random feature on my site? I've written almost 600 articles covering games on 42 different formats, so I'm sure you'll find something you'll like! kimimithegameeatingshemonster.com?random

@kcg.bsky.social Happy Birthday!!

“This is nice behaviour, that I write to you again and again, and you pay no attention to me.” This almost 4,000-year-old Babylonian letter in clay is proof that we have been finding ways to say “per my last email” for some time

@pitohui.org I'm a little behind on NMW, but I was listening to ep. 245 yesterday and your ad for Fruit was incredible -- really hit my funny bone. The extra "Niacin!" was just 😘👌🏻

Take me back to the future 😎

The "Mystical Ninja Starring Goemon" recompilation project is now up on Github. Experience Goemon on PC with 60fps and widescreen. github.com/klorfmorf/Go...

I think about this quote from The Princess Bride a lot lately: "Good night, Westley. Good work. Sleep well. I'll most likely kill you in the morning."

Post a random game Saturday! It's Monty Python's Complete Waste of Time for Windows! I remember fooling around in it a lot and having a laugh, but I probably haven't played it since 1995 or so at this point.

have u ever been personally attacked by a meme

Oops 😬

It's Led Zepplin - Kashmir time.

This is such a great question that I think it deserves a whole thread. The cuneiform writing system included numbers, and we know how to say the names of many of these numbers in both Akkadian and Sumerian (languages that cuneiform was used to write). Let's start with Sumerian.
