What I listened to today: "illogical", Jack Howell

"Music 2000", released in America as "MTV Music Generator", was a complete and apparently highly capable DAW released as a commercial video game for the Playstation 1.

Jack here has a YouTube channel where for 15 years he has consistently uploaded nothing but Gran Turismo 2 recordings and songs made in Music 2000. He uploaded this one this weekend, and it rocks actually. Grinding rave techno with 303s and Juno hoover.

A Mac SE/30 with two external monitors in Mac cases.

I’d like to image an alternate universe where you could purchase a second (or third!) Apple display for your classic Mac and it would be in the same form factor. What a panorama! I’ve wanted to do this for a long timeβ€” achievement unlocked. πŸ™ƒ

Thanks to CJ at the swap meet yesterday for the Classic case!

Did you know that Activision were due to release an ambitious Alien VS Predator game in 1993, where you had essentially three different games in one. It was tragically canned after licence issues.

I kept this thing running for like fifteen years because it kicked that much ass

Nice tall 4:3 screen, 1400x1050 (in 2005!), Wacom tablet built right into the monitor, touchpad AND nipple AND stylus, swivel the screen around and turn it into a tablet, press a button and get a vertical monitor (!!!), pull out the optical drive and replace it with a bigger battery, it Kicked, the Ass

After 32-bit architecture no longer cut the mustard I went to a desktop and since then I've been sat around sighing and twiddling my thumbs with my laptop-buying cash bored in my wallet patiently waiting for laptop makers to come to their FUCKING SENSES

I don't think this version of Tetris complies with the official Tetris Guideline, Quarterdeck. πŸ€” (But the hint bar on the bottom is a nice touch.)

New post: Daikatana.

Once proclaimed as an "expert FPS," it's a myriad of bad decisions and frustrating gameplay. Turns out John Romero can make a dud too.

Today was some good races in Portland.

But I particularly remember one little thing. It's midday, time to qualify, so I get dressed in the race gear, get in the car, strap all the safety gear on, and progress to the grid. I have a new gearbox I need to be kind to, I'm wondering if it's going to rain, I'm worried about the car being underweight at the end - lots of little things. /1
