Hey you, yeah you! You should join my Discord! We do semi-regular game nights (lie) and play a lot of Open Fortress (truth)

Also its like a queer safe space for anyone who needs that kind of community :3

Join the Greenie's Grove Discord Server!

Greenie's Grove started as a TF2/Open Fortress modding community. While those games are very much in the DNA of the server, it's mainly a queer gaming hangout with common Open Fortress games organized...

I’m done interacting with tf2twt for now, I’ve been told I’ll never be a real woman (despite being a male and not identifying as trans) and that I’m a cancer on the community

Scream Fortress Update was okay and one of the maps was broken, but that happens literally every year.

i love that all valve games have verifiable, documentable jank with history that goes back into the decades

Meaning... you could control this elevator like the Half-Life 1's rail cart if you used the game's no-vr debug mode. It controls exactly how you would expect. Using W to use one of three levels of speed when moving up and using S to move back down.

A closer look at the NiGHTS head in the Radical Highway track of 'Sonic Racing CrossWorlds'. Unlike the original SA2 head, which would rotate and was mechanical, this one is a hologram.

Up to 60 electronic mail messages a month. Just $7.95. (Source.)

A two page ad. The title reads "Finally, a computer information service you can't outgrow. No matter how hard you try." The left page depicts a shirt ("Shop. But don't drop..."), a striped fish ("Dive deep into aquarium lore..."), a red sports car ("Price a new Mustang..."), a satellite ("Learn how to monitor military satellites..."), a zither ("Find out just what the heck a zither is."), and a globe that shows the Americas twice ("Talk to twice as many people about parallel universes"). The right page depicts G. Washington ("Learn a sensible way to get the dollars to start a new business"), a PC network ("Find out why your PC won't talk to your LAN..."), a Visa stamp ("Find out how in the world to apply for a visa."), a phone handset ("Get the current phone number of your old friend from high school..."), a scuba diver ("Discover a good place to dive..."), and a salad ("Copy down a truly delicious tofu recipe."). The bottom of both pages is dense ad copy.

Thinking about it, Idk if saying this is completely accurate, I’ve heard Strange New Worlds is better than Discovery, however most of Discovery was hot garbo, so that isn’t saying much

The First Look at 'Star Trek: Strange New Worlds' Season 4 Gets Enterprise Lost In Space

'Strange New Worlds' has seemingly heard your complaints that the show has been missing some strange new worlds lately.

I made a little script to send me notifications whenever one of my SteamVR devices stops charging. That should hopefully fix the problem of the powerbank in my pocket running out and the Quest suddenly losing charge without me noticing. Maybe it also helps someone else.

i think most reviewers these days add disclaimers about "hey i was given this for free but the company has no oversight on the script or video" which is good... but keeping free hardware is still a form of payment, and thus an influence on bias, which should be responsibly disclosed

i think youtubers that do reviews of hardware should make it clear if they have to *return* the hardware or not
