probably cynical of me but that grimace thing is almost engineered to be a meme, they planted the seed and now one of their mascots is all over the internet, unavoidably. they get social media users to do marketing for them

the impostors & tim reaper - infinity

a couple of new tim reaper collab EPs dropped the other day, great retro jungle

@The_T oh, interesting! i was totally unaware it was a feature on those versions of the maps. no wonder it became an oddity for me with the LGPE map haha

@The_T it's sort of a funny quirk of keeping the kanto map largely the same over time. stuff that you wouldn't really question in a game boy game suddenly becomes a little questionable when examined as a connected region. this is the most reasonable explanation i've heard of how the cycling road is positioned

@smitten i find it humorous that somewhere along the line even the act of running windows from a HDD became dubious. it demands too many resources. hilariously non-functional operating system

Some cool images I found today

These were made on Amiga computers back in the day by various artists.

This is one of my favorites and I think was on the cover of a US-based Amiga magazine.

Can we all just sit here and gaze upon this mastery by Rick Parks in 16 colors? No scanning, done by hand in Deluxe Paint on an Amiga. It's almost photographic in its perfection.

Rick worked at Westwood Studios and worked on Eye of the Beholder I & 2, Dune 2, Kyrandia and other classics.

Rick died in 1996. His incredible creativity lives on.

I mean, it's been fifteen fucking years. we know what Mark Zuckerberg and Jack Dorsey are about. they've shown us their whole entire asses. we've seen them radicalize our uncles and put Nazis onto the streets.

but the second they dangle a toy in front of us with the vague scent of FOMO and ground floor clout, that whole history gets thrown away and we're back to repeating history like it's 2007 all over again.

coffee is probably one of the most comforting things in the world for me, especially with some nice music

@transfaeries tusky still lives! i use it pretty regularly on my own phone

@pup_hime awesome to see this thing on fedi!! i've got the smaller variant and i've played many a game on it. awesome little thing

much respect to FOSS developers for their hard work in creating and putting this stuff out for their communities. it warms my heart in some strange way!

i really appreciate FOSS for the communal benefit it provides. in a sea of shit-tier paid & proprietary software it's refreshing when i come across an open source solution that just *works*, and i can feel confident that i won't be bombarded with ads and other bloat, too.
