A major newspaper publishing guide to help people identify the munitions their government is using against them is a real "Late Republic America" timepeice that future historians will comment on.
Here's how to identify some crowd control munitions, canisters of which federal agents have left on the ground after deploying them against people in Minnesota. bit.ly/3YWp1jE

I asked Megumi about this, and her best guess is that it's so unclear who would even own the rights to Virtual Lab anymore, that there's no established entity that Nintendo could negotiate with for it -- if they even wanted to include the game on the service in the first place. A shame for sure.
Saddened that the Virtual Boy collection does not include Virtual Lab, a puzzle game made by a trans woman who, in no uncertain terms, designed the on-screen character to have big breasts because she too wanted boobs, but couldn't afford top surgery.
I hope she's having a good day today.

For the impending snow storm over the weekend I am LOCKING IN and playing thru all Donkey Kong Country and Land games in release order with the eventual goal of giving Donkey Kong 64 a reappraisal with my now withered and dry 30 year old eyes

ICE Officers, who give nothing of value to society, are out there arresting people who have real jobs.

the line in here about various essential bits of software just fully not working because they require internet access in a country cutting itself off is fascinating and frustrating. give this a read
Iran has killed all connections to the outside. But in the early morning the regular internet works briefly. In that time, @hackimi.bsky.social sent me a letter about what it's like being a developer without the internet as the government tries to squash everyone:

A Game Developer Without Internet
Iran has been without internet for 9 days. Arash sent a letter as a developer without the internet, in the few moments when the great firewall faltered.

I also need to highlight someone else’s contribution to the Magfest museum this year: a slew of Japanese keitai with games on them! These were staples of Japanese gaming pre-smartphone, and it’s rad to see them presented here on their original hardware.
