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. https://asecretarea.com/2025/02/21/halo-with-chips-found/

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

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

despite everything I'm still here

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

thinking about boots again...

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!

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

am doggo

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!!!!!!!!
