New video about the PlayStation 2, the vast amount of games that made it such a legendary console, and the time that slipped through our fingers.

Those remakes aren't doing the games enough justice, so the series is pretty much still dead to me. That, and Panzer Dragoon Saga is one of the best RPGs ever made, as far as I'm concerned.

Funnily enough, I would have been fine with the Associated Press doing revenue sharing with me since, as they claim, their journalists entitled to royalties. And I agree! Even though this constitutes fair use, I would have been okay with that.

But they disabled monetization outright, so...

oops, forgot the image

It was a claim from the Associated Press in the UK. They are very strict about repurposing their reports and broadcasts, even in the context of fair use. I just didn't want to bother disputing it.

An entire 30-second segment, plus a 5-second tidbit had to be removed.

Ultimately just edited around the claimed segments. It was ugly, but I did what I could. The video stays up!

To clarify, the video is still completely visible, as the email says. I'm still deciding on what I want to do about this.

So this Neocities project has evolved far beyond my ability. It's gonna be more than just a page of my links. If there are any web developers following me that are looking to take on a new project, send me a message here or via email!

Tom Scott once mentioned that we are on a bell curve for this technology, and to this day, I still have no idea where we are on that curve.

I'm hanging in there. Barely.

no yeah it's fine. sora 2 is fine. i actually love the fact that people can create virtually anything now in believable detail by typing in words. this is going to be great, especially without any regulations in place. this is exactly the world i hoped for when i was young and wanted to make art.

I have a good feeling that I'll be able to finish this by the end of the year. For real this time.

In the Super Mario Galaxy games, the staff credits text is always loaded into RAM despite not being needed until the ending. While horribly inefficient, this is inadvertently heartwarming as the games appear to honor their creators by keeping them in memory at all times.

Was thinking about this recently while replaying Tears of the Kingdom... I would love to narrate a DidYouKnowGaming video about Zelda. I don't think I've ever publicly displayed interest in this, but it would be an honor.

Written 55 years ago, Schulz's heartfelt clarity cuts through the noise, even today.

h/t @tisserand.bsky.social

Scan of a typed letter from 1970, from Peanuts creator Charles Schulz, addressed to "Joel Lipton, 622 N. Foothill Road, Beverly Hills, Calif. 90210"

It reads:

"Dear Joel:

I think it is more difficult these days to define what makes a good citizen than it has ever been before. Certainly all any of us can do is follow our own conscience and retain faith in our democracy. Sometimes it is the very people who cry out the loudest in favor of getting back to what they call "American Virtues" who lack this faith in our country.

I believe that our greatest strength lies always in the protection of our smallest minorities.

Sincerely yours,

Charles M. Schulz"
