Got to the final scene in Flight (2012) and “Too Many Cooks” started faintly playing in my head…

Found another trove of old photos and negatives in my parents storage in need of scanning (there goes my free time for a couple weeks). Love seeing my first PC desk/setup. I’d recognize the Test Drive III code wheel anywhere.

Second and final iPod classic modded into a new metal shell, this time aluminum. What is dead may never die.

About 36 years ago, my brother and I were standing in a Toys”R”Us and needed to align on the next new NES game our parents would get us. I fought for Kemco’s Superman, being obsessed with the movies, while my brother tried to convince me that Super Mario Bros 3 was better. Forgive me, bro.

I’ve played a loooot of Balatro and this has *never* happened on the very first hand of a run

It feels like I’m back in college, apart from the fact that this iPod classic is solid brass and glass. A fun mod, not really intended to be on the go (250g 😬), but breathes new life into a device someone dumped on ebay because of failing a HDD and battery

After 14 years of excellent, dependable brain-draining, I’m finally retiring my beloved ST60 55” Panny Plasma in favor of a new 4K OLED with modern features. If anyone I know in the bay would make good use of the plasma and let it burn out its final years in dignity, I’d love to find it a good home

There are few things that have remained exactly as cool to me as an adult as they did when I was little but I have to give it up for laminating paper. It’s like tossing a boomerang into the fairy fountain; it feels magical coming out the other side.

I’m puzzled

The burden of the physical movie collector. I’d reckon I’ve been entering codes for the past hour.

The nostalgia is strong but so too is the finger soreness. Managing dozens of VHS cassettes is hard work!

Tempted to do this every day indefinitely to do my small part to try and help make the end of the trilogy happen

Weather is too hot for non aluminum controllers

I wasn’t sure how these keycaps would look in person but they’re a delight, delectably vivid and fun.

I rarely stop a movie before it’s through, even when I’m not feeling it, but good lord, I don’t think I can get all the way through Tron: Ares. How did we go from Legacy to this?

It took me WEEKS but I finally defeated Gold Stake on Black Deck. Testament to how utterly brilliant Balatro is that I didn’t give up.

These Majuular Ultima documentaries are amazing. I can’t always get through in one viewing but I can’t wait to click when I see a new one. I don’t understand how he can make these so quickly given how well-researched and loaded with info they are. youtu.be/W4h1GIw32UU?...

Adding some prestige cinema to my physical collection

Lazy rainy Sunday afternoon

“I made it to the weekend.”

I would like to kindly ask Saros to please get into my veins ASAP

State of Play is about to begin: play.st/4ty8hxd

set news alert: “greg” AND “roman” AND “fired”

Hegseth: “Arm the missiles.”

Probably because it hit at a formative time and nothing felt remotely as immersive to me back then, even today when I wake up to a gloomy cloudy drizzly sky, I can hear Daggerfall music in my head. The Unity port is amazing on a 90fps Steam Deck OLED display btw.

The first time bumper stickers ever made me lol

The retro beige look never really compelled me in the past but in the last year I became preoccupied with having a keeb like the days of old

All tuckered out from Thanksgiving

I cannot remember the last time I wanted to paste text with source formatting and cannot understand why the default isn’t for text to be pasted without formatting. Why do I have to remember a key combo or click a pull down/contextual menu every time?

How I feel running into an elevator/train alongside another Arc Raider

I’m probably pushing this cafe’s guest WiFi to the limit but just completed a perfectly playable solo free loadout run ☺️

This #worldseries game 3, good lord

You know a game is a masterpiece when you’re playing it in your head in between actually playing it

If anyone needs me I’ll be in the ball pit

Every snow particle, leaf, and god ray rendered with purpose ❄️ Sucker Punch dives into the tech powering Ghost of Yōtei’s breathtaking world: play.st/3LnuBrw

@criterion.bsky.social flash sale thoughts:

Mulling a big portable battery for travel, been a while since I combed the options and it seems Anker still has the most robust lineup but also a bit of analysis paralysis between many similar products. Anyone have the Prime 27k or the more recent Anker Laptop Charger with the retractable cables?

#GhostofYotei is now available worldwide! It's been five years since we launched Ghost of Tsushima, and we are so happy to have another Sucker Punch game in your hands. Thank you to everyone who has supported us and to everyone who plays. We can't wait to hear your thoughts!

Shout out to Alex for creating the SterlingKey BT switcher which has made it so easy for me to use my fancy mechanical keyboards with multiple devices. Just upgraded to his newer version with a more premium case and very happy to have it at the heart of my setup.

I loved my U80-B but the sound and feel of this Hippo TKL from Jacky is an absolute 😙👌

Staring at this for the past five minutes trying to decide what keycaps to pop on.

SA Oblivion hasn’t left my Yolk U80-B in over a year but GMK CYL Cubed may just be the one to overthrow it. These caps are 🔥

I know I’m in the minority but I always liked this one. Some of the CG is rough in 2025 but otherwise I never really got why it was so unpopular.

Preordered Tron and Tron: Legacy on 4K *so* fast when I saw the listings go up. I must see these improved Clu face FX

Had been almost three years since I built a keyboard, mainly because I got a puppy almost 3 years ago. It’s nice to finally be at a place (in terms of her ability to chill) where I feel like I can take the time to do it.
