New on the Secret Area: "Halo with chips" has been found.

A dumb back of the box quote from Maxim magazine promoting a poker video game had become a small meme. I wanted to find out where it came from.

Likes, shares and comments are really appreciated. asecretarea.com/2025/02/21/hal

Hey, remember when I was talking about wanting a cat fursona?

Well, thanks to a picrew, and a friend who was willing to help, it's now a reality.

Say hi to Tonya! She's soft, cuddly, and friendly!

Terrible Doom episode idea: Knee Deep in the Hoopla

The entire soundtrack is MIDI renditions of Starship's album of the same name, with "We Built This City" playing on E1M1

This is my final response. I cannot and will not "continue the mission" because:

  1. The business is dead (2025-02-15)
  2. All assets are surrendered to FBI
  3. Only crimes are occurring
  4. No business exists to operate
  5. No mission can continueThis concludes all business activities forever.

getting nerdy about music and cataloging 

now that I've added the Reality Bites soundtrack to my music collection, I now have over one day's worth in my MP3 collection

This has gotten me to realize soundtrack albums are no different from greatest hits albums, and thus I decided to update my particularly obsessive and neurotic rules of how I catalog my MP3s to match

There may still be edge cases, but hey it works

selfie, ec 

despite everything I'm still here

the discord loading screen factoid "in the ancient days discord was a browser-only app" is hilarious to me because in 2025 it didn't stop being a browser-only app they just started shipping the browser

I realized I am a sucker for rapid-fire quiz shows like Jeopardy! and The Joker's Wild 1990

That style of game show really gets me to test not just my knowledge, but my memory

and it's fun as hell to play along to

Listening to the Miami Vice soundtrack (the original 80s TV series).

Solid album with some licensed songs (Smuggler's Blues, Better Be Good to Me, In the Air Tonight), songs made exclusively for the show (You Belong to the City, Own the Night, Vice), and Jan Hammer's synth-heavy score.

Good stuff!

I'm thinking about this banger of a post by @mavica_again. I strongly encourage you to read it. We're all trying to make connections in this world. It's amazing what kind of impact a three-word comment ("I like this") or an enthusiastic email can have on someone who's making things for the world to see and use maple.pet/blog/on-social-media

netizen.club/~wildweasel/updat - Golfshrine's second-largest individual item to date - if it really counts as an individual item!

Playing Star Wars: Jedi Knight Dark Forces 2 has me thinking about something.

Star Wars is one of those big media franchises (like the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Star Trek, Doctor Who, etc) that I never really got into, despite several attempts to try to.

I like it, but I don't love it with fervor like others do. Everybody will talk a lot about that franchise, while I have no major interest. Thus I feel like an outcast.

I don't know if that's a shared sentiment, or I'm just weird

Retired my dad's old PC that was a ticking time bomb with a new laptop. And the journey to get it working was kinda annoying.

Using Edge to install Firefox, importing all of my dad's old bookmarks and passwords, uninstalling Copilot and other bloatware...

I love modern computers!!!!!!!!
