That's not what I read at all. He's upset about people who are still mad at RA despite them clearing it up. They heard the feedback, they're changing their policies, and they did it in a reasonable time frame.

Good work. I'd love a Keith Downie mirror, but he's North East specific.

If you're an indie developer, you should hang this screenshot on your wall and use it as inspiration to never give up

(zoomer who has never heard of newspaper comics, discovering Garfield for the first time) Oh, so it’s like a bunch of shitposts inside of the newspaper? They post a new meme of this cat every day?

POV You're on a date with Xenia

Point of view: Xenia the Linux fox is grabbing you by the hand, bringing you inside her room. She says "I lied, there's no Netflix. Instead I have a local Jellyfin server with twenty terabytes of pirated media."

[Nintendo Legal]

RTA in Japan (a speedrun charity event) was notified by Nintendo that they are utilizing Nintendo games without permission.

Due to this, RiJ Summer 2025 will not feature Nintendo games.

The organizers are in discussions with Nintendo regarding future events.

visa and mastercard deciding what games are allowed to be sold is an apocalyptic level threat to the games industry. phone calls are the highest impact way to help.

this is an all hands on deck situation. the enemy got results with 1000 phone calls.

we can beat them

Forget the statue at City Hall, this guy is the *real* Spirit of Detroit. 🫡

A review for a Little Caesar’s somewhere by Kevin S:

Stopped into this Little Caesars just trying to get a $6 pizza and ended up in a full on action movie. Just as I grabbed my order, this furious dude barges in yelling about how I cut him off in traffic earlier.
Before I can even respond, he throws a punch but then out of nowhere the guy behind the counter jumps over it like he's been waiting for this moment his whole life and just beats the living hell out of the guy. The guy ran off and the cashier just dusted himself off. I said "are you ok man" and he looked me dead in the eye and said "B*tch, this is Little Caesars. We always hot and ready."
Five stars. Will absolutely return.

I think as a team we've changed the way people in the fandom talk about these games, and I will never not be proud of that. I've also had the opportunity to watch some fantastic fan devs come into their own and grow in confidence.

The team is currently focused on the upcoming CD project, and I know they're going to blow you all out of the water with it. Meanwhile I'll be working on a personal passion project I've wanted to do for a while so stay tuned here for more information on that.

A while ago I decided to step down as a lead of Team Forever. I feel like I've taken our projects as far as I can take them, and I need to find new challenges that can pull me back into modding as a hobby. #sonic #rsdk #sonicforever #sonic2absolute

Wishing peace and love to the SHC bees. Hopefully a beekeeper will come and scoop em, and they can have a happy life.

Sonic Hacking Contest @shcontest.bsky.social · May 30

Update: it is going to take a while for the room to be rid of bees.

For this reason, the presentation is delayed to June 7th, 2025.

This will not affect the happening of the Sonic Hacking Contest or associated events.

Sonic Hacking Contest @shcontest.bsky.social · May 30

Due to a bee infestation in our video editor's room, progress on the SHC2025 presentation is temporarily halted, and is delayed to June 1st, 2025.

Further delays may be necessary. You will be informed appropriately.

They sound pretty confident

You know what? Maria Robotnik should look more like a Robotnik, with ginger hair and a big nose.

In fact, did Gerald and Maria being related to Eggman have any actual relevance to the plot?

Hey all! It’s been a while

A lot of restructuring has been happening behind the scenes, but we can confirm that our CD project is now in active development! There’s a lot of new faces on the team, and we hope to share more about the team and project in greater detail in the near future.
