VRACH FRANKENSHTEYN? "Vrach" does sort of mean "doctor", but more explicitly a physician. Chris Carter, what are you doing?
FANGORIA@fangoria.bsky.social · 2d agoThe director's cut of THE X-FILES: I WANT TO BELIEVE – VRACH FRANKENSHTEYN is August's biggest new release so far and streaming services have packed their rosters with horror classics and films that go beyond the pale.
Today (August 4th, 2026) is the date mentioned in Ray Bradbury's "There Will Come Soft Rains" short story, but it was changed to New Year's in the famously grim Soviet animated adaptation: youtu.be/quyaaszg6jc

TIL the iomega Zip Drive 'click of death' is due to value engineering out an 85 cent long lead time piece of foam that helped prevent the read/write head from crashing into the disk. It was contagious because a damaged disk inserted into another drive could damage the head on the second drive

This is my favorite retro game con, they put out the good stuff, and it's in a funky air and space museum. I'll be there lecturing, projecting slides into a giant IMAX theater showing Nintendo's abandoned attempt NES as a home lottery system. Later I will sip beer and play Barbie Fashion Designer.
