This is especially egregious now because the next presidential election is (allegedly) three years from now and they're already gearing up to throw marginalized folks under the bus chasing the mythical moderate conservative.

Except when they pull that and don't even win the election so they decide they gotta get at least 10% more Nazi.

It's always "well we can't help you out unless we win the election, so we gotta throw you away now so we can help later" and then they win the election and don't help later.

We made it. I'd like to thank everyone who reposted and donated over the weekend. It's always harrowing to deal with last second money problems but it's always a good feeling to get help when it's needed.

My mother has been absolutely slammed by bills all at once and now we don't have the money to make rent for the month. I know that times are tight, but we need to raise 700 bucks ASAP to keep our landlord off our back. Any help is appreciated, and reposts are very welcome.

Haven't made any headway on this yet. Reposts are very welcome. We have to try and make this in the next day or so to avoid any problems with the landlord.

One of those guys behind the scenes who changed the whole landscape into what we have today. As said, a huge loss.

AndyAML @andyaml.bsky.social · 15d

Absolutely devastated by this news. SpaceDrake was no doubt a huge influence in drumming up interest for Japanese indie games localized into English and pushing for them on digital distribution storefronts like steam. Huge loss. Might be time for another playthrough of Recettear in his honour.

A tweet from Robin Light-Williams (@BlondRobin) stating the following: Hello to anyone reading this. I am Robin Light-Williams, formerly lead translator for Carpe Fulgur. I am very sorry to announce that my friend and business partner Andrew Dice, @SpaceDrakeCF, has passed away. Pursuant to that, Carpe Fulgur will be ceasing operations.

Honestly the remaster looks like a lot like Invisible War to me, with all that entails. It's got the weird, harsh lighting, plasticy NPCs and the muted environmental textures that were all over IW.

this is like when you opened an EGM in early 2005 and saw a fake prerendered screenshot for what ps3 games could look like

my beloved deus ex ruined. jc denton's three foot long twig arm holds a crowbar and is about to hit a soldier in the back of the head. the entire thing looks like a screenshot you saw of Perfect Dark Zero on 1up.com and you and your friends coped by saying "it's an early build"

Doctor Harmspital @dochospital.bsky.social · 16d

I have no qualms with remasters when they are quality products, like Nightdive's recent System Shock 2 remaster, but it really does feel like a solid 95% of them are just slapdash jobs pushed out on the cheap for a quick buck. When the originals are still available, it can pay to seek them out.

Wikipedia: Jack falls down the hill and injures his head. Jill stumbles as well shortly after.

TVTropes: The hill scene. Dear God, the hill scene. Not only did Jack fall down and get a head injury, his sister did as well. Water fans will think twice about fetching a pail after seeing this!
