the reason you can't let me speak into a microphone without supervision is because I start saying things like "I'm a hater for wonder"

thanks to the OSG folks for having me on and letting me get away with this (for now)

started the PS1 version of PO'ed last night (yes, I know about the nightdive remaster) and having more fun than I expected BUT the game has no soundtrack?

I put on the ps1 doom soundtrack to start but curious if folks have other favorite 90s FPS OSTs (the weirder and more ambient the better!)

cover art for the PS1 long box of PO'ed, a very weird FPS

guy needed to connect his tablet to the wifi to finalize the contract and send it over

had to tell him my house wifi network is the one labeled "slenderman is watching"

is it time to finally change that

It's May 2, 2000. 2am.

You fire up your USENET reader and check out what's happening on alt.fan.bgcrisis.

The top thread is about whether or not Priss would hate the Communists because it would make a really good story for someone's Duke Nukem 3D total conversion.

Time to go back to sleep.

A screenshot from the USENET newsgroup alt.fan.bgcrisis from May 2, 2000, speculating on whether or not a character from the 1980s anime series Bubblegum Crisis, Priss, would hate quote the communists unquote.

I'll be doing a run of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine - The Fallen over on GDQ Hotfix in about 30 minutes!

DS9 The Fallen is a 2000 PC-exclusive action game using a modified UT engine and it's got (most of) the voices from the show reprising their roles

I'm going through the console in chronological order, so I've got a bit until Parasite Eve, but I can almost guarantee it'll be a 5/5, I've been playing the game every year for Christmas for years now

Yeah, there's an internet rumor out there that the PS1/Saturn NA release uses this image because of an accident where an advertisement was used as the cover and that's why later versions (e.g, the N64) don't use it

I couldn't find any confirmation of that rumor tho
