@slash@cdrom.tokyo 2004 was such an amazing year for video games holy shit.

GTA Sanandreas
Gran Turismo 4
Halo 2
Half Life 2
CS: Source
Unreal Tournament 2004
Command & Conquer: Generals Zero Hour
Farcry
Need for Speed Underground 2
Burnout 3: Takedown
Killzone
And World of fucking Warcraft

I'm probably forgetting a few notable releases but I can't think of any other year that has had more timeless game releases than 04.

When our daughter was born, we decided not to post photos of her face to social media without her permission, and so far we’ve stuck to that, which I am glad of.

As a photographer who often derived validation from “engagement” on social media, this is a great chance to reflect… and to appreciate those private moments.

@MischievousTomato @lewdthewides @cleo My view: pirate content worth pirating, buy content worth buying, keep away from content worth keeping away from. It really is that easy.

@digdeeper @fsf Here's a solution: abolish the school soystem altogether!
Seriously, little children were never supposed to sit on a chair at a desk for 6 hours a day while being treated like prisoners.
Little children are supposed to explore their direct environment and actually learn how to live through that.

Chromebooks foisted on students? Teachers monitoring what children do outside of the classroom via nonfree software? Surveillance of children is common, and it's at your child's school, too. Support #FreeSoftware u.fsf.org/32h

Game engines: "we just joined Masto goys!!"
Meanwhile, SDL doesn't even have SNS presence, just a mailing list and a forum:

Just saying if you're looking for a based game dev library.

If you feel like a bad coder, remember that gamefreak has coding practices like this.
That might make you feel a little better.

Modern Pokemon is an anomaly, it's genuinely insane how shit of a game they can make and nintoddlers still buy product just to whine about it.
The only way this shits dying is when all the hardcore fans just die off and the next generation of kids genuinely has no fun at all with the shit they pump out
