Even if the Quake II 64 levels are complete ass, it's pretty cool the remaster gives you them as an option.

Y2K Amish. Civilization peaked in 1999
Reactivated my Bluesky account (mostly out of morbid curiosity) and I was suprised at how many old accounts I followed from Twitter still active over there. I still maintain Bluesky's entire reason for existing is now a lie, but, my feeds on prefered socials are somewhat lacking.
Playing through Quake II right now, basically the first time with the franchise. When Quake III Arena came out, were people disappointed? I was a UT99 guy. If Valve dropped "Half-Life 3 Arena" after all this time, I'd be pissed.
New idea: every Teams call I have today, whenever I need to unmute, I have Sandstorm playing in the background - just to see how long I can go before someone asks what the fuck is my problem.
Hoppe out of the Mises Institute...wow.
"LET ME ENJOY MY BOOMER SLOP!!!"
I yell to my kids as they complain about my music.
One of the most horrifying moments at work is when you ask the question, "so who is the expert on this stuff?", and then everyone in the room turns and looks at you.
Now, it does drive personal growth, good things come from this, but for that one moment, horrifying.
Today is going to be the stupidest fucking day on social media, across all platforms...
I've seen this pop up in a couple places, and I laugh at it every time. It really is the state of gaming these days...
I don't remember the dotcom bubble, but it would seem odd to me that people were hoping for it to pop leading up to the crash.
I'm waiting for the AI bubble to pop with excitement, 1. for the lulz, and 2. because I want AI to grow naturally and not in the fake way it has so far.
I bought my PS5 to play PS4 games (mostly). I'd probably be pissed at this gen if I bought it to play PS5 games.
Rob Schneider in his wackiest role yet - Rob Schneider in, "Gen-X Iran War Draftee".
Entering the world of mechanical keyboards. What switches do people prefer?
This is very consoomer of me, but I actually miss when tech was unveiled at shows and then people freaked the fuck out at their release. That was fun. Everything seems lame and incremental now.
In a world where Rokus, Firesticks, and Playstations exist, why are smart TVs still being made? Who is really asking for this? Just be a fucking monitor and add an extra HDMI port or something.
The US Government when a bunch of 42 year olds go out and get another possession of marijuana charge just for the fun of it.
The west has fallen, and now we're just being demoralized.
Once DMs/chats get sorted out broadly, and once the AIs are doing the coding, I'd use the shit out of a vibecoded nostr client that had this same UI. Not something like this, something that is exactly this. I don't DM, but I'd find excuses to DM you all just because it would be wild.
