Late 90s PC gaming. Even the simple in-game chat systems back in the days in games such as Unreal Tournament, Counter-Strike, Team Fortress and many others helped people meet, socialize, and form communities.

Here’s a mostly forgotten one: Phantom 2040 for SNES

Not truly a metroidvania, but an interesting platformer shooter with branching paths and many different endings.

The Resident Evil 2: Remake no-hit attempt was my favorite run of the event. Carcy brought mad energy and mad skills.

All the other runs mentioned here were great too

As someone who still drives a Tesla vehicle I bought years ago, well before Musk totally went off the rails, can he please just leave?

Tesla’s lofty stock price is to some extent based on hype, and Musk being credited (far too much imo) for the company’s success. If he did leave the stock price would come down to something more sensible, which at least short-term would make shareholders unhappy. But yeah leaving him in charge after what he did to Twitter must also be causing sleepless nights.

Ayaneo has a pretty good track record making portable gaming devices, mostly running Windows. I’m guessing “subscriptions” here is a mistranslation for pre-orders.

What a pillock. Guess what Peter, we actively dislike you too.

This rapscallion would be suspended for sure

Probably Rust in Peace

Trump was caught attempting to blackmail a foreign leader for political gain, with dramatic geopolitical implications. Hunter Biden’s minor misdeeds are a total nothingburger in comparison. I agree with the other comment, this smells of desperation.

The hell is wrong with this country. Shoplifting is not violent crime. If they flee put out an arrest warrant and they’ll turn up later, in a lot more trouble.

Cops are well aware standing in front of a car gives them a free pass killing someone who attempts to escape. It’s totally unnecessary pointless murder.
