Had to look that one up: cur·mudg·eon /kərˈməjən/ Learn to pronounce noun a bad-tempered person, especially an old one.

Well apparently there were 23 survivors pulled out of 9/11 WTC buildings. All from below the 22nd floor. Possibly even more survived the initial collapse but didn’t get medical treatment before they were pulled out of the rubble. I hope the lack of all the additional upper floors like the WTC means less rubble to crush people in this tragedy

I have given so many hours of my teenage life to this game. Thinking back to it, I actually have a negative feelings towards it because it has taken so much of my time that I should have been spending outside. It was only really fun when there were bugs and hacks

Just curious, besides the tax authorities who were after him for tax evasion, who were his enemies?

Terrible news. I hope they can rescue any survivors. I can’t imagine that the whole collapsed section was empty

Originally we were saying $10,000,000,000... missed a zero

Pro tip: just buy the Euro version of Bomberman Quest for way cheaper

What you can’t access with the $1B is the control/feeling of the hand you gave up to get the money. Cant shake a friends hand or get around with quite the same level of mobility. Can’t feel a cats/dogs fur as your petting it or get satisfaction out of picking your nose

Personally I thought Jeff Epstein was a murdered. He had too much dirt on too many people. But Mcafee... I don’t know. So far they are saying it looks like a suicide. He did already tweet that if he dies Epstein style then you should know that it was not him who killed himself. But he also did seem like a troubled guy from the many clips I’ve listened to him in. He was a big libertarian maybe even anarchist and I can’t help but wonder if he could have performed a false flag attack against himself just as a final F-U to the government. You know, to add to the anti-government sentiment. When I think about this I wonder if it were actually a murder, what did he have that would cause others to want to get rid of him? I really don’t know. He certainly didn’t have much to lose. His health was already failing him and the prison he was headed to in the US would probably be worse than the one he was already in. Religiously speaking, I don’t think he was a believer in a heaven/hell paradigm.

John Mcafee has died. Apparently he was in a prison in Spain for some time now. A court just ruled to extradite him to the US and hours later he was found dead by hanging in his cell.. I realize this may be a sensitive issue as a man has died. But he’s also a public figure and a very politically charged personality so I thought it may possibly be appropriate to discuss the circumstances of his death and theorize on possible causes. https://www.google.com/amp/s/nypost.com/2021/06/23/john-mcafee-dies-by-suicide-inside-prison-in-barcelona/amp/

While I did want to get this one, I always thought it was strange how they didn’t make the dimensions of the steelbook proportional to an actual Gameboy cart.. it just looks weird

What if the horse and the owner are both lefties?

Does this extend over to unopened packs of trading cards? What if the customer opens a vintage pack of Pokémon cards doesn’t find anything special and wants to return it?

Don’t take your health/wellness for granted. Let’s say a billionaire lost one hand in an accident. He approaches you and proposed to give you $10 billion to have one of your hands surgically removed one so he can transplant it to himself. Would you take the offer? If not, then realize and appreciate the fortune that you already have. Young people would work so hard sacrificing their health chasing money. Older people would give up all of their money they worked so hard for just trying to get back the good health they once had.

As opposed a specific type of Castlevania game, I think of the term Metroidvania more broadly represents games that are similar to Super Metroid and Castlevania Symphony of the Night. These games both did something extremely well. What exactly that something is, I can’t define. But they both did it, and so many games over the years have attempted to replicate it with varying degrees of success

Metroid 1, 2, 3 and to a lesser extent, Fusion, ZM and Samus Returns are what Metroid fans want. The problem is that the genre of Metroid games was significantly changed after Super Metroid. People have a hard time recognizing this, because while they can recognize that they really like Super Metroid, they have a difficult time defining precisely what the genre of this game is. I believe this is why fans have coined the term “Metroidvania.” Koji Igarashi recognized that Metroidvania stands as its own unique genre. Fans realize there are some key ingredients that they really appreciate about the genre, but they are integrated into the experience so seamlessly, that it’s really hard for people to pinpoint exactly what those ingredients are. Likely even Nintendo doesn’t know precisely what it is that made Super Metroid so great, and this may be why we haven’t seen another 2D Metroid in such a long time. The producer of the series was Gunpei Yokoi and he died after Super Metroid was completed before any Metroid sequels were made. Making Metroid without him is like making Megaman without Keiji Inafune. It can be done as we’ve seen with Megaman 11, but it took a long break and there was a lot brainstorming that had to be done to figure out what made the series great. There is definitely still a market for this type of game as we are seeing a resurgence in this Metroidvania genre through the indie developer market.
