We’re currently being hit by a #typhoon here in Kagoshima, #Japan right now, and everyone has their eyes glued to this palm tree (nicknamed ヤッシー) to see if it will ever fall over in the wind, cheering it on in the live chat. It’s kind of become a typhoon tradition here.

Another overlooked arcade classic, the three-player Super Off Road by Leland.

The story behind this license involves a chance meeting at a sushi bar. One day I hope to tell that story - had to cut this one from the book! #videogamehistory

I don't know how many of you are familiar with the Sewer music from the NES Terminator game, but it's a simple beat that never ends like they ran out of time before they could finish it.

So, using a NES soundfont, I had a go at making an actual tune out of it whilst also trying to crowbar the Terminator "motif" in there.

They say big trucks are just a reality if you want to make deliveries in the city.

I say there's other ways to solve the "last-mile" problem...

Ya know what? I'm gonna toot my own horn today On Here Specifically.

I have already received at least a dozen thankful comments/replies for letting people know they can slow down door closers. A lot of people have been living with irritating bangs in apartment buildings and whatnot.

And thanks to watching a YouTube video, their life is now better. I didn't sell anything to them, I just decided to share some knowledge in my own (hopefully entertaining) way.

After playing through The Crimson Diamond by @JuliaMinamata, I just had to see the game's gorgeous EGA artwork on a real CRT! So I took a couple screencaps from the game, nearest neighbor scaled them down and cropped them to 320x200, converted to PCX and copied them over to my IBM PC/AT on floppy disk. This is a real EGA monitor and you can see the beautiful scanlines. Now I can imagine what it'd be like to play the game on an old PC back in the day. https://store.steampowered.com/app/1098770/The_Crimson_Diamond/
