Videogames
Fallout 1 is now open source. It can even be played on the phone now.
An article about the mech game made by Bioware before they got big. It's a MechWarrior like game, but not within that license.
There is a Castlevania fan game that has been released for the Amiga. There is a 4 level proof of concept and a full release to come out soon. It stars Maria Renard traveling through the castle on her way to defeat Dracula.

Modern times
Women in high income jobs are quitting because childcare is too expensive. It's cheaper to be a mom, and let her husband pay the bills.
Cockatoos can create tools and carry them for difficult jobs.
Tech
Carl's Jr is using automated systems to take your order at the drive through. It's not perfect, but neither are the teens it's replacing.
Elon Musk refuses to let his satellite internet be used for targeting systems. It was posted earlier, so this is a follow up.
Meow Wolf's design is a Metaverse. Of all the stupid buzzword stupidity, a theme park is what the Metaverse wishes it was.
Instructions on how to build a levitating banana.
A dad built his son a tank.
Their dictators want Elon to pick a side. He should pull out of Ukraine entirely and let them die like nature intended.
I get the feeling his contract is being controlled by the military and he can't back out.
Probably.
There's a reason keeping them in a cage and/or all by themselves is cruel and unusual punishment. They aren't human level by any means, but they are socially smart animals. They create tools from scratch all the time and put many redditards to shame.
I knew about corvidae, but not cockatoos. It makes me wonder what my cockatiel knew.
How to whistle and say a few words. Cockatiels are mostly assholes. I know, I've had 6 of them. Loved every fucking one of them. Got bit the piss out of many times.
Yeah, we called one the poop vulture. She would sit up high, fly down to a shoulder, and then poop.
I can't find it, but there were stories a year or so about how cockatoos who were raised with or around humans were teaching their flocks to swear when they rejoined them.
Setting the bar high are we?
Useless holes making up excuses not to be a mom or a provider: Gee, honey, if only I had more money. Maybe next year I could take better care of myself and focus on me...I mean, the children. 100k to take care of children? They do know we aren't fucking retarded and see right through their lazy bullshit, right?
What do you mean "excuse not to be a mom" ? The woman they interviewed is a mom.
The real cringy part is this crap:
I also noticed no one entertained the idea of extended family. When I was a kid, both my parents worked, and my grandparents babysat a ton. I guess everyone is leaving towns hollowed out by neoliberalism.
That second quote is genuinely sickening.
Yeah, it's kind of ridiculous.
We are, but the people they are targeting, the broken messes from their school system, will eat it up like it's coated in chocolate.
I'm 36 and if I win the lottery I'm buying myself a tank. Remember Americans, tanks are arms and as such are protected under the 2A. The ATF should have no authority to deny you s 7.62 coax, a pintle mounted .50 or a main gun of any caliber and explosive shells for same.
I like that argument.
Ah, the experiment of them not being fucking parasites has gone well.
Cheat their way to the top and then quit the moment anyone but themselves benefits, because that's the kind of people they are.
