I haven't brought this up in a while on here (felt like I should give other people the stage for a while), but I am still out of work, and running out of money to keep my bills/loans covered.

ko-fi.com/wildweasel - Donations highly appreciated. Pointers towards employment, even more so.

Canada made weird tv shows because it was all being done with government funded art grant money so they fell in this wacky middle ground between “shoestring budget” and “no expectation to generate shareholder value” which is really the best way to make art

The Ants have discovered my side table by my gaming chair, and seemingly _only one_ side table; leave a used drink cup or dessert dish on it and they're all over it in an hour, but leave it on the _other_ side table and it's completely fine.

wonder if ants just don't like climbing chair gas-lifts.

The East LA level in Tony Hawk's American Sk8land has an elaborate secret involving an invisible rail that clips you through geometry to an out-of-bounds section of the map, revealing a message telling you to hide in the bushes in the Beverly Hills map.

When you do so, the game plays a fart noise.

As a fun "lost media" update on this recent news, the person who has been uploading these has shared more episodes and now we're at the point where this long lost daytime game show, that until this month had only *three* existing episodes, is now at almost 30 existing. In just over a month!!
An episode of the long lost music game show "Musical Chairs" from October 21st, 1975 quietly popped up yesterday. Before this episode was discovered, only THREE others were known to exist. This show notably has the first ever African-American game show host, Adam Wade www.youtube.com/watch?v=_u_C...

Illinois Pin Ball, Part 0: (thanks @heyrocker.com for the reminder).

When pinball was laid off, employees were allowed to come back to the factory for a week or so to clean out their offices. We had decades of stuff that the company didn't want anymore, so we hauled it ALL off. (more)

Cool fact: The iconic deep, metallic gong noise you hear in Goldeneye's OST especially the Pause Menu track is actually a tambourine sound from the E-mu Proteus FX sound module pitched down

The Quake3 hit sound is a modified Windows 95 musica sound scheme noise at a different pitch and with a little more bass/punch to it. The metadata was preserved if you don't believe me.

this hit sound also made its way into action man destruction x for some reason
i was going through my X archives and found this by @superpodsaga.com, which I qrt'd at some point years ago

so, let me bring the question back: what is the most useless piece of video game knowledge you know?

In Morrow County, healthy adults were coming down with unexplained medical conditions, including diseases that usually afflicted the elderly.

In a survey of 30 homes, at least 25 miscarriages and a half dozen people living with one kidney were reported.

Okay, it's been a week since release. Reception has been AWESOME, much much more than I expected for such a niche thing! Thank you! ❤️ A few thoughts (thread).
This is Sektori! A twin-stick shooter I've been making (and documenting the journey) since April 2021. And it finally launched TODAY on Steam, PS5 and Xbox! Here's a fresh launch trailer, all shares highly appreciated. More game info in replies.
