#GlobalSwitchDay is tomorrow. Let's do this!

💰 Wyoming Senate passes SF96, requiring the state to hold gold & silver reserves.

A step toward financial security, diversification, and independence from the Fed’s failing fiat system.

Next up: House committee. 🏛️👇

huh, apparently you have to manually release your game on steam and the date you put down for people to see is literally just for displaying on the storefront.

that's a bit of pressure lol. i wish it would just automatically release itself. i can kind of understand why that's not the case though.

A version of Quake has been released for Dreamcast with online support:

In most cases, I want people to go to the trouble of finishing their work. Nothing worse than a series which suffers from sequelitis, either due to the artist or the suits. As much as I love the Drizzt books, for instance, there certainly didn't need to be as many of them as there were.

Games are different, because if the core mechanical systems and sandbox are fun enough, then a game being mod-compatible means it can theoretically have infinite content. I still play L4D2 because it's the best zombie game ever made and Steam Workshop support means it will literally never stop new stuff; some of it might even be good!

Your poll, intentionally or not, treats games as "modern consumable product" numbered to infinity where they have little or no replay value, and the beautiful thing about games is that even controlled single-player experiences can be breeding grounds for self-imposed challenges.

Hard to believe it’s been 20 years since the first publication of OpenSolaris source code with the Dtrace source release:

To celebrate the 20th anniversary of Kuromi, Sanrio collaborated with Razer to make some themed gaming gear that's available worldwide. Razer surely knows their demographic.

I hate, that even after so many years, the list of "lies and deformations caused by the school system" still keeps on growing.

Most of the European civilization is in population collapse.

Hey guys, it's my birthday today and the best present would be if you went and gave my upcoming game, God's Disdain, a wishlist on Steam! I'd also appreciate signal boosting and letting other people know about the game :D

I've been working on this game for nearly a decade and it is finally coming out on March 14th, being free for everyone! It'll be completely unencrypted and DRM free as well, so anyone can mod and share it.

It's a mix of the classic Dragon Quest games and Elder Scrolls, with a turn-based RPG battle system and a world where every NPC is named and follows their own unique schedules. The story follows Tamiko and Kenshin, two young adults who are trying to stop a plague that has been killing all of the plant life on their continent. The main story cutscenes have full voice acting and make use of paintings to show off key moments!

There will be a demo available on February 3rd since the game is part of the RPG Maker Festival 2025. I hope you guys will enjoy it :)

It's almost creepy to me, hearing about how so many people born deaf, upon gaining the ability to hear, remark how quiet the sun is. They grow up assuming that it should be very loud.
I keep imagining as if it should, but for some reason we don't hear it, and deaf people have this instinct that it should. Like a cool horror prompt.
