One for me is Peter Jurasik as Londo from Babylon 5.

I remember on one of the commentary tracks hearing that to warm up for an episode shoot, Peter would pace around his trailer a few times bellowing "My dear Mister Garibaldi" and then that's it, it would all snap into place and he'd be Londo.

Oh no.
Anyway, how about that boycott, huh?

not the same situation but this reminded me of when @mcconnell.bsky.social pointed out the NEC in this article is the turbografx company

All other things aside, the boycotts out there are just no-brainers. And not really hard to participate in!

Is SNK really putting anything out there you need? Is Xbox Game Pass really that hard to live without?

These companies have made it pretty easy to stand in solidarity with other folks!

surely no army in military history has ever been laid low by disease, a famously uncommon problem among people living in enforced close quarters

Having a very "I wish everything on transphobes that they wish on us" kinda day today.

Once I saw this meme format I couldn't resist making a version about video editing 🤪

a two page spread from the March 2000 issue of Incite PC Gaming where Warren Spector is being interviewed about Deus Ex. Warren Spector is standing in some sort of parking garage at dusk wearing a long black jacket, sunglasses and is folding his arms. he is also wearing unironed jeans and what looks like some off-brand shoes

i love that there is only one kind of image of Warren Spector (college professor of gaming) except for the time incite pc gaming dressed him like an extra from the Matrix who is just trying to get his SAG card

I love how Netflix is straight up saying "This won't be worth watching"

"Silly Turfster, we are never getting a MGS3 movie"

Can't wait for the Snakes and Ladders movie

everyone knows that when you have an overbearing boss this is what happens. the answer is to not be a know-it-all knobhead who abuses power, and specifically in this case, a croniest knobhead who uses it for fascist purposes and to toady to america

"In the place of problem-solving technology, companies have jumped on successive bandwagons like NFTs, the metaverse, and large language models. What these all have in common is that they are not built to really solve a market problem. They are built to make VCs and companies rich"

Outer Heaven

It's easier than ever to be visible, and more difficult than ever to get noticed.

When Do We Start Giving A Shit? The Microsoft boycott in extrapolation, one year later.

I've been scratching away at this for a few days. Maybe it's better if I just get it off my chest. If anything, I used to be a lot more vocal than I am now, so a reminder is likely due

I wrote about the Microsoft boycott as I've been seeing it around me. That's it 🫡💜

Two photos of a crafted Hoi game character plushie. The second photo features Hoi with a bow.

When my wife and I had just married, she crafted this Hoi plushie for me. 😊💚

As we married uhm… a 'few' years ago, the condition of the plushie has declined, but I thought it's fun to post here.

My wife wants me to emphasize that it was a quick prototype, not a finalized creation. 🙂

“I used AI to combine the data from two excel lists and then send emails to people who were on one list but not another. Saved me so much time.”

My brother in academia, you just fucking discovered mail merge. Welcome to early nineties computing.

There's always a bigger fash.

The top of a Wikipedia page for "List of games that Buddha would not play". "The Buddhist games list is a list of games that Gautama Buddha is reputed to have said that he would not play and that his disciples should likewise not play, because he believed them to be a 'cause for negligence'.[1] This list dates from the 6th or 5th century BC and is the earliest known list of games.[2] There is some debate about the translation of some of the games mentioned, and the list given here is based on the translation by T. W. Rhys Davids of the Brahmajāla Sutta and is in the same order given in the original.[3] The list is duplicated in a number of other early Buddhist texts, including the Vinaya Pitaka.[2][4]"

Another screenshot of Wikipedia, outlining said list. Games on boards with 8 or 10 rows. This is thought to refer to ashtapada and dasapada respectively; however, later Sinhala commentaries refer to these boards also being used with games involving dice.[2] The same games played on imaginary boards. Akasam astapadam was an ashtapada variant played with no board, literally "astapadam played in the sky". A correspondent in the American Chess Bulletin identifies this as likely the earliest literary mention of a blindfold chess variant.[5] Games of marking diagrams on the floor such that the player can only walk on certain places. This is described in the Vinaya Pitaka as "having drawn a circle with various lines on the ground, there they play avoiding the line to be avoided". Rhys Davids suggests that it may refer to parihāra-patham, a form of hop-scotch. Games where players either remove pieces from a pile or add pieces to it, with the loser being the one who causes the heap to shake (similar to the modern game pick-up sticks). Games of throwing dice. Dipping the hand with the fingers stretched out in lac, or red dye, or flour-water, and striking the wet hand on the ground or on a wall, calling out "What shall it be?" and showing the form required—elephants, horses, etc.. Ball games. Blowing through a pat-kulal, a toy pipe made of leaves. Ploughing with a toy plough. Playing with toy windmills made from palm leaves. Playing with toy measures made from palm leaves. Playing with toy carts. Playing with toy bows. Guessing at letters traced with the finger in the air or on a friend's back. (letters in the Brahmi script) Guessing a friend's thoughts. Imitating deformities.
