I write code for a living, love games/movies/tv, and pursue various creative hobbies. Often contribute tweets to @mixnmojo and @grimfannetwork.

I quietly uninstalled Twitter some months ago because… well, no thanks.

I am now primarily on Mastodon and to a lesser extent Threads, We will see about Blue Sky once I receive an invite or it opens up!

I was previously I bit worried about the co-op focus, but after reading about #RedFall in more detail I think this may be a serious sleeper hit.

Arkane hasn’t let me down yet anyway with the FANTASTIC #Dishonored, #Prey, and #Deathloop. Play those games!

@PlaytonicDean You’ll love this one at my old workplace then.

I’m not sure if it’s my age, being a dad, or just being sad that I’m so excited about this little baby-resistant container that lets me keep some magazines and books in the bathroom without them getting bent or damp.

Inspired by a conversation at work, I decided to see if #ChatGPT can help you become a software developer.

@MAMentoring @bambang48283459 @keith_fit @ShakeAlarm @Sandford_Police We all go through looking a bit silly because we believed satire or a hoax. It’s part of the learning experience.

You’ll be more careful next time — question if it sounds off, and if in doubt check the source.

If someone can’t learn to do that then there’s no helping them. 😀

@valid8me @fasc1nate Ask your tail bone.

@bambang48283459 @MAMentoring @keith_fit @ShakeAlarm @Sandford_Police You look at the profile. It says it’s a parody, as does the pinned tweet. 🤪

@mixnmojo Fantastic news. Those who are SO VERY PRINCIPLED about not buying from Steam need hold out no longer.

The middle part of Donkey Kong Country 2’s Forest Interlude still hits just right. 🤌

@dimensional_hum @Independent It’s what a complete lack of respect for your readers and ultimately customers looks like. 😔

[Thrik @thrik]

The wonderful experience of reading @Independent on a modern phone. Yes the page crashed at the end.

With a new #MonkeyIsland game having just come out, 'The Art of Point & Click Adventure Games' is an excellent choice for some autumnal reading.

This is one of the thickest #books we stock and an absolute must for fans of the #AdventureGame genre.

@et_andersson @DrLilo1 @craigderrick @mixnmojo @grumpygamer @phrenopolis Is there much precedent for new releases of old Amiga, Atari, etc games?

How would it work? Presumably not rips of old disks distributed in a non-working form. So bundled with an Amiga emulator or something like ScummVM?

For me, PC EGA/VGA/CD would be essential. Others a bonus.
