I used to have all three at my desk, but now the water is flavored sometimes and pulling double duty.

Sungazer is amazing! I need more Adam Neely in my life. High quality picks there.

Thank You Scientist! More rock bands need horns.

My subreddit voted to participate in the Reddit API blackouts in June 2023. When Spez doubled down on enshittifying Reddit, we voted to go dark until the situation improves, but Reddit never got better. Moving to Lemmy was not a popular option at the time, but I didn’t want to stop posting, so I went to Kbin. [email protected] has been viewable on Lemmy and PieFed ever since.

This is for [email protected] . You install this in a retro PC where a physical drive would go. Your retro PC thinks your disk images are actual disks, and everything else works like it used to. It’s a nice quality-of-life improvement.

Retro game consoles have been doing this for a while. The Sega Dreamcast’s GD-ROM drive is prone to failure, so modders replace it with hardware that loads disk images. I haven’t heard of this for retro PCs before, but it makes sense.

Amazon’s cloud computing services, the authors wrote, “have become vital to ICE’s crackdown on immigrants, with their data storage being used for mass surveillance and deportation.”

AT&T, which received $382 million in Department of Homeland Security contracts between 2022-24, “serves as the digital backbone for Trump’s deportation machine.”

Home Depot “has appeared to be collaborating with Trump’s ICE mass immigration sweeps on their property, putting thousands of customers and employees’ safety at risk.”

Microsoft—which gave the Trump Inaugural Committee $750,000 in 2024—has received at least $45 million in homeland security-related contracts in recent years.

Palantir has partnered with ICE to use the company’s artificial intelligence system to identify, track, and deport suspected undocumented immigrants—and is reportedly helping the government build a database of Americans’ private information in likely violation of multiple laws.

The only one of these I still use at all is Microsoft. I realize now that I have a moral imperative to stop giving them money.

OK, I like that one. At first, I thought we had to underpromote to rook and then castle somehow, but this isn’t [email protected] .

…on state television, an Islamic Revolutionary Guard official warned parents to keep their children away from protests, saying, “If… a bullet hits you, don’t complain.”

Bad move, Tehran. Now another country might give these protesters guns. My country has just the kind of idiot in charge who would arm then.

Generally, I use RetroArch with the cores Recalbox uses on all of my emulation rigs. Most of the heavy lifting is done by the RetroArch cores for Final Burn Neo, Beetle, FCEUMM, Gambatte, SNES9x, Genesis Plus GX, PCSX Rearmed, ParaLLEl N64, mGBA, Flycast, and PPSSPP. Most of my devices run Emulation Station, using ES-DE on Windows when not playing online matches with Fightcade.

If you haven’t played Threes!, do yourself a favor and try it. 2048 is a soulless clone.

Me too. I would say Pac-Man or Galaga, but Super Mario Bros. 1 is the oldest one where I’ll sit down and dig into it for a while. 40 years later, the character’s weight and momentum make it feel better than plenty of modern games.

How about the music from the Splatoon games? They’re squids and octopi, but they sound suitably fishy.

Oh dang! I also came in here to say Bad Religion, and I would have been wrong. Thank you for bringing sources.

Found it on Getty Images. Oh no, that’s Dr. Oz standing over the guy, too. I keep forgetting that snake oil salesman has a job in the White House.

My thought was to make a plumbing system that pipes water up and down, and someone’s superpower removes the effect of gravity on the upward flowing section only. Gravity accelerates water going down, but doesn’t decelerate it coming back up. But, I don’t know anyone who actually has control over gravity in a defined area other than myself in my dreams.

Never mind what this orange idiot says. The real damage is that no other country will ever take a US President’s statements seriously again. He’s flushed us down the toilet and there’s no coming back.

Good point, yeah. I wonder if I should be saying Trump is the only government official in the US ever to be impeached twice. It includes every president, vice president, federal official, state governor, or state judicial official that there’s ever been in the US. That’s probably more accurate.
