Find a positive and healthy activity in your life. A few years ago I did this with Tai Chi and only have positive things to say about this ongoing learning experience. The whole world is dogshit, do something positive to combat it.

Deep Blue is 30 years old and was capable of defeating chess grand champions. It could be housed in a single cabinet.
ChatGPT spans untold data centers devouring massive amounts of electricity and it got its ass whipped by an 8 bit gaming console from the 1970s.

I will be damned if I allow a bunch of Confederate-waving January 6th apologists give the American people a lecture on flag waving.
There is ZERO reason to enter an argument about patriotism with people who still worship traitors to America 150+ years later.
They. Are. Breaking. The. Law.

This world has me really freaked out lately and I am struggling to make sense of anything. I'm trying to distract myself by making silly programs in BASIC and for a brief time that helps.
I programmed this for me, but hopefully you like it too. #Atari #AtariST
Be safe everyone.

I really hope that the coming price hikes due to the idiotic tariffs of an orange shit monster really make the people who voted for it think about their life choices.

For the rest of my life I will never understand how MAGA is so furious about Dr. Fauci, who saved many lives, being pardoned by President Biden, but they're thrilled about January 6th thugs, who beat cops with flagpoles, being pardoned by trump.

I keep track of the video games I finish each year and this year some interesting trends came up:
1. I play very few AAA games
2. I play mostly indie games
3. The retro games I play are getting weirder and weirder
4. This was a good year for fan translations and more obscure systems
