As part of Nintendo's push for online services on the Wii, one of the many applications they made was the now-offline "Wii-Woo", which would contact emergency services immediately upon startup. Nintendo stated to only use it in a real "Wii-mergency".
NHS cancelling surgeries for adults even after they’ve already paid for travel + accommodation and waited years to get there. Some were about to be wheeled into theatre! Every manager responsible for this decision must be sacked and every patient paid compensation.
🚨🆕 @wearequeeraf.com and @whatthetrans.com can reveal that the NHS has cancelled all gender-affirming surgeries for adult patients of the Welsh Gender Service Some trans patients received the news just days or even hours before they were due to take place 👇 www.wearequeeraf.com/nhs-cancels-...
Also remember: even the smallest stances against a fascist figure make a difference I've told Wisconsin congressman Glenn Grothman to shut the fuck up and to eat my entire ass at so many public events that he now avoids eye contact. Make them uncomfortable Labor Day parades this weekend y'all
DOOM '98 Imagined what if id Software released an additional entry in the Doom series in 1998, using a technological mix between id Tech 2 and GoldSrc engine. Going for the blend of fantastical and grounded, which would be in vein of Half-Life and System Shock 2.
I am becoming incredibly exhausted of this pattern: many people: "AI sucks!" Very Smart Person: ah but have you considered (distinct application of ML or statistical modeling that has no real relationship to what the tech industry is marketing as, and people broadly perceive as, "AI")
apropos of nothing, here's a terrific feature about a meaningful, life-saving use of artificial intelligence, which I have been thinking about for over a year. it's just extremely stupid to say that AI has zero benefits even if you don't think it should be used in writing (which I don't)!
Having fun reading people’s wishlist in the quotes. The business man in me would probably buy SSX, rope in community mods for a HD version with kick-arse indie music, but a cheap Road Rash emulator digital release with a performance patch also sounds low effort.
Since it's been announced that EA's new owners are planning to auction off EA IP assets (something I thought would take at least a year before they got to that point), I want to point something out: a lot of stuff is going to go for a lot less money than you think.
I've never seen such an effort to censor a document as I have the Amnesty International report on gender critical groups because of JK Rowling. They removed the report from the Wayback Machine and now I got a DMCA strike on my Google Drive for having it. It was deleted and removed from my account.
everybody clearly wants Al which is why if anybody is able to tell a business used it their customers will leave
Claude users are canceling their subscriptions, citing Anthropic’s new AI watermark
One developer said they feared Anthropic's watermark could lead clients to flag their work as AI-generated and raise questions about authorship.

This is what LGR said in the Patreon comment section in an 8-bit guy post. I told Murray that “the demo BASIC program that says Epstein didn’t kill himself isn’t funny”, to which he replied “Both Republicans and Democrats I know liked this joke”, to which Basinger said “You can’t please everyone”.
Because I can't make everyone happy with every video. Stopped trying to do that long ago.
THIS. Ever since Gordon Brown's 'bigoted woman' it has been a totally untouchable axiom that concerns about immigration are well founded and unchallengeable. If we had a media and/ or political climate where we were able to challenge these views we might be in a better place.
I do not understand how there is such little pushback against a worldview that has radicalised white English men to riot in the streets and the state to commit institutional violence against all migrants, so little condemnation of an attitude fundamentally at odds with basic human decency
Deportivo A Coruña (yes, they've had a slight name change) are back in La Liga this season. They've spent as many years (4) in the third tier as they have in the Segunda since they were last in La Liga. What other narratives will we be looking out for this season? theanalyst.com/articles/la-...
I realised that I never posted the answer to this. It was a Grandstand Pong clone!
Friend sends in a photo of a C64 in a thrift shop, and all I'm interested in is what looks like a wedge computer in the corner of the picture. Anyone know what this could be?
plex scanned a file of the 2010 world cup final i had on my computer from ages ago and the cover it found is the greatest thing i've ever seen

In Dec 2024, Mazraoui refused to use a Man Utd jacket with support to the LGBT cause because it was against his religion. Today, Man Utd has announced a partnership with a betting company & yes, he was seen wearing a shirt with the sponsor on it So just a raging homophobe hiding behind religion
Mazraoui recusou-se e jogadores do United não usaram casaco de apoio à causa LGBT

Oops, if Croc 2 is about to be reissued, it means we'll have to remove our download links soon. It would be a real SHAME to get it for free while it's there. 😇🐊
Croc 2 - Abandonware France
Trois années se sont déroulées entre les deux jeux : On avait laissé Croc victorieux du Baron Dante, et des Dantinis qui concédaient la défaite face à un peuple aussi inoffensif que vulnérable...
