Proud to be the 748th 😎 on @BackerKit for Armello: The Board Game. Thanks @KotCGames armello-board-game.backerkit.com/community_shar…

Late pledges for our @ArmelloGame #Kickstarter will CLOSE this Sunday, February 15th! Believe it or not, we've seen over $9K in late pledges since the end of the campaign. If you missed out, this is your last chance to pledge!

@spigen @_photojay For the love of god let us buy these things, please

@_photojay how about them apples

a classic concept. should we mac it?

Ah man, looks like they accidentally swapped in the subtitles from Enrico Pallazzo’s performance of Nessun Dorma at the Winter Olympics opening ceremony!

2008 by the way was the same year Ubisoft released Far Cry 2 and a year before Assassin's Creed 2. Establishing templates that would persist for over a decade.

Beyond Good and Evil 2 surviving the massive shakeup indicates to me that it's evolved beyond just being some game in dev hell--it's Ubisoft deep lore. To cancel a game first spoken of in the ancient tomes of 2008, the Glory Days, would be tantamount to corporate heresy.

If you make me choose between the subscription-based AI-powered voice-controlled refrigerator that plays TikToks and serves ads or the weird goo fridge I'll probably pick the weird goo fridge.

@egoraptor I'll have to look into that one, for sure. I've seen a few others recommended in the replies, too--which is awesome. Very quickly got the impression that just renaming files one by one is the second-least effective method, only slightly better than yelling at the screen.

@tdcpresents There are so many people who've built renaming programs etc just for this sort of thing... Everybody has their own naming conventions and batch renaming is such a huge part of this My favorite program is called Advanced Renamer and it's invaluable

Setting up a Plex server has demonstrated no algorithm is capable of handling my dumb media collection. "This is the 2023 Super Mario Bros. Movie, yes?" "No, it's the '93 live-action one." "And clearly you mean Netflix's Carmen Sandiego?" "Actually the PBS show from '91."

@egoraptor That is a huge help, yeah! I’m also learning that improperly formatting the name/season/episode/title layout can result in shows getting labeled as different shows if they’re not sorted properly. It’s a learning process! A very time-consuming one, but one nonetheless.

@tdcpresents I know this is a bit for comedy but in case it isn’t you just gotta put the release date year in parenthesis after the title in the folder name even for shows

@spigen Entirely possible I considered upgrading to a 17 Pro just now so I could get this case.

Wake up, it's 1984. The Limited Edition Classic LS is here.

Ah, what an honor to have Dust:AET on that list :) Still some love for the Nimbat and Mithrarin!

@NoogyTweet @NightdiveStudio Oh man I still need to play through that. Their remaster of System Shock 2 is definitely in my top three for this year.

My Game of the Year goes to @NightdiveStudio's re-release of Hexen. Not only is it one of my favorite FPSs, I really loved the gameplay additions and quality of life updates. Including Heretic was the cherry on top.

@therealcliffyb Badass, man! Looks great!

HEY ALL! Had a test animation for Scrapper done, check it out!

Late pledges for @ArmelloGame: The Founding and the Fall have been such a hit that we're extending them until the end of January as we lock things down for production! Missed the campaign? No worries! You can still pledge all through next month!

i had to drop what i was doing to make this

@therealcliffyb Hell yeah man, I even got one of these dumb (amazing) hats abandonware.online/products/after…

Anyone else remember the After Dark screensavers?
