Thought I'd do a quick post about what (re)posts to expect from me:
- video games, mainly older ones
- reverse engineering, programming
- computers, mostly retro-related
- general anime, manga and vtubers
- "cute anime girls(/boys/others; mostly girls)"
- real life rambles, occasional politics

When I wrote last month that translators have been the guinea pigs for a decade in companies' attempts to diminish the work of experts and reduce them to supervising computers, I wasn't exaggerating in the least. They're just ready to spill more blood elsewhere now. dateemups.com/machine-tran...

Looks like UT2004 is gonna get the OldUnreal treatment - Epic-endorsed community patching and a free installer. The OldUnreal versions of Unreal Gold and UT99 are very good, so this is great news! old.reddit.com/r/unrealtour...

A mascot character made to sell you unhealthy, sugary softdrinks shouldn't have such a banger theme song.
... plus, I don't even like Pepsi! Except for Pepsi Twist -- which has apparently been discontinued here!

this is peak transit
This composition had eluded me for nearly a decade, but yesterday I was finally able to capture it. A train rolled through just as the Duquesne Incline was crossing over the tracks in #Pittsburgh, creating a picture perfect winter scene. It was worth the hours and hours I've waited over the years.

The fascists are counting on you finding erotica and porn too distasteful to support. Because they always start here. And even if they ended here, sexuality and erotism are integral components of queer expression. You can't support queer creators without supporting 'nsfw' content.

In their official histories, Sega will often mention the SEGA 1000 Jukebox. The first domestically manufactured jukebox, it helped them overcome the three-way tie with taito and v&v to become the dominant jukebox distributor in japan. But is it even real? (a thread)

For any of you artists out there who are at a loss with the way things are going right now, just remember Mr. Rogers' words of wisdom.
I think, more than ever, these words from Mr. Rogers hold as true as the day he spoke them.

It's not about if Horses is good or if you like it, it's about the world we're in where a few companies have control over who gets to make money and which artists get to continue working.
Stores can stock whatever they want, but if you don't understand the broader picture you shouldn't speak.

Fuck misinformation spreaders. Fuck people trying to shut daring art down. Fuck everyone who equates nudity with sex. All of it. Let art be out there. Let art be art. But to do that, people have to be allowed to say "I can't handle this right now" and not be thrown to the wolves for it.

Adult art calls for adult responses, and tbh that includes an awareness that some personal discomfort/wariness for challenging pieces may stem from irl experience with traumas explored in the material, not pearl-clutching prudishness.
(Of course this discomfort should never mutate into censorship)

Cannot stress how bad shit is about to get if you want to build any kind of PC.
Crucial is shutting down — because Micron wants to sell its RAM and SSDs to AI companies instead. It’s already getting hard to build an affordable PC, and the exit of the longstanding provider of consumer memory is going to make that even more challenging www.theverge.com/news/837594/...

The AI apocalypse continues. The amount of collateral damage from AI is truly staggering. This is not likely to end well.

My first RPG translation is 1: Of an unreleased game, 2: in one of my favorite franchises, and 3: with a rom hacker that partially inspired me getting into translation in the first place. Super proud to have helped bring this out in *checks notes* just over a month!
