For several years I believed that LucasArts and other developers had created a secret time-capsule hoard of unreleased video games.

But, as I've said more recently, I no longer believe this. I was wrong. And if I hurt anyone when I suggested that theory, I am profoundly sorry.

I believe that was the standalone EGA demo preserved on the Legend of MI website. It has a list of contest questions at the end, and you had to mail in the answers for a chance to win.

UK Gouvernment: Payment Processors Can Ban NSFW Content
According to the UK treasury, payment processors are in the right and the gouvernment has no plans to step in. This puts it in direct contrast to what artists and the UK games industry have asked for.

Illuminated manuscript of the “Horae ad Usum Parisiensem [Book of Hours for Parisians]” or “Book of Hours of Charles VIII,” King of France (1468 - 1498). The folio shows Saint Denis, first bishop and patron of Paris, walking with his head in the hands, after his execution.

Lovely article on University of Cambridge's Future Nostalgia project - rescuing knowledge from old floppy disks! Much of it resonates with the preservation work we do at GTW:

Sources: Leadership nixed it over concerns re: U.S. political climate, backlash to Yasuke

Funeral Invitation, 1688.

Funeral invitations first appeared in the 17th century, and acted as an admission ticket to both the church and the funeral feast. Pallbearers were often assigned a number on the ticket to signify their position in carrying the coffin.
A funeral invitation from April, 1688. It has an ornate black border with various memento mori iconography around it - like skeletons, winged hourglasses, and scythes.

a fascinating writeup on the making of a set of widely distributed IDF propaganda videos, specifically identifying assets they used. there's something incredibly unsettling about the creative ethos here. stolen assets. no actual intelligence information at all. just hubris and pure fabrication.

Jack Sapoch @jacksapoch.bsky.social · 2d
Others assets came from scans made by the Scottish Maritime Museum of their boat-building workshop which was downloaded (via @sketchfab.bsky.social) and reimagined by the IDF adornments for underground missile factories.

The thing they don’t understand about drawing NSFW is that it’s a roleplay with yourself. It’s an expression of your ideas and fantasies, made entirely by you, in a way that can’t hurt anybody. Needing the characters to consent is ludicrous: I’m the artist and *I* consent. I’m the only participant.
