I remember having mind blown learning that the Master System has not been discontinued in Brazil, but it turns out that these newer Master System models are just system-on-a-chip consoles with built-in games and no cartridge slots. That's kind of lame.

That's like saying that the Atari 2600 is still alive and well because Atari Flashback consoles are a thing. Granted, these newer Master Systems use actual Master System hardware, but still.

I've set my name to David Mayer in hopes that it will stop the ChatGPT bots on Nostr.

I think I know what my next game project should be: a twin-stick shooter with Metroidvania/Zelda-like elements.

The concept of people using meme sound effects in their videos as like a form of built-in reaction is essentially the modern version of the sitcom laugh track.

After suffering two times this year for about a week (each time) with severe chest congestion that kept persisting without any improvement, I resorted to a course of Ivermectin. Both times, the improvement was obvious after about 18 hours, and the condition was completely gone after about 10 days.

just learned this recently, but the guy who made Final Fantasy Sonic flash games passed away the same week as Sonic 3. rip to the time Sonic got a buster sword and fought alongside Mega Man X.

All these libertarian Twitter accounts are still stuck in 2020/2021 because they still like to post COVID memes for whatever reason.

I mean yeah, it's important that people NEVER forget what the government has done to them, but they don't realize that most people have moved on, unless your name is Jeff Cliff.

I really miss the pre-2014 Internet.

I know some of you will say they want the pre-2007 Internet, or even before that, but I'd argue that GamerGate truly changed the Internet landscape forever. Now everyone with a significant presence on the Internet has to pick a side, whether their presence is political or not. I just miss the days when you can just simply create something, share it on the Internet, and not be forced at gun point to share your stance on something like abortion, and if you wanted to, you can simply talk about those issues on some separate account.

One good thing that came from the political polarization from the past decade however is that it finally gave people an excuse to look at alternative platforms. Not even the Snowden leaks were enough to get people to jump ship.

> Since the Covid Crisis, there has been a renewed interest in people taking control of their health. This on its own is fantastic news. This is something that’s very close to my heart since I’ve been embarking on my own health journey. As part of this, I was gifted Casey Means’ book Good Energy by my mother. I think there is a lot of very useful and important information in this book. Sadly, it also leaves out a wide variety of important information, especially when it comes to digital autonomy.

A bill filed in the Florida Senate would officially recognize gold and silver as legal tender and repeal state taxes on both. Passage into law would set the stage for the people themselves to undermine the Federal Reserve monopoly by introducing competition into the monetary system.
