it occurs to me that the &knuckles cartridge was functionally a licensed game genie that you couldn't change the codes in

someone on here was talking about dialup over voip a while ago and I still find that funny

sometimes I wonder why a middle-aged italian-american plumber is the world's most loved video game character but then again, working-class representation is good

hebrew is such a neat language

it's the only language ever to be undead (i.e. it was a dead langauge for ages and now it's not and there are people who speak it natively again)

just saw someone say "never tried ribs" and my first thought was "you must have an interesting skeletal structure"

if you think about it the modern equivalent of a centaur is a motorcycle-taur, since the single-person ride-on transportation of today is now motorcycles (or other forms of bike), not horses

I know someone else needs to hear this:

gender roles are bullshit
you look fucking amazing
it's okay to cut ties with toxic people
your past doesn't make you a bad person
you -can- do better for yourself
It's okay to ask for help
you don't deserve the way they treat you
vulnerability is so effin hard
you are not your mental illness

I'm here for you ♥️

Sometimes when on stackexchange I wonder just where the break in understanding is. I just saw a question asking if it'll work if someone just plugs a 12V DC brushless fan into a controller designed for a 110V AC motor and I don't understand how anyone could _not_ see that as a terrible idea from the start.

While I'm at it, have a link to a playlist of the complete soundtrack. It's worth a listen. Watch out for spoilers in the comments!

It's not that hard a game to get ahold of today, probably because no one seems to know it existed. There was a remake in 2015 for the PS4, xbox one, and PC, but it's by all accounts an awful port; go for the DS version.

This particular piece seems to take the form of a theme and variations on a motif that is common between all the build themes in some form or another. Having not played the game in years, I hesitate to call it a leitmotif, but I think it may be a leitmotif for either the idea of building, or for the Archineers who do that building.

This game has quite a few motifs in its music, and I feel like many of them are leitmotifs, even if I'm not sure for what.

Build Theme 1
Lock's Quest

Probably one of the best games you've never heard of. Unfortunately, it's been so long since we've played it that we can't remember much of the story, but the gameplay is solid, and the music is outstanding.

This theme, called just Build Theme 1 as far as I can tell, plays during the pre-battle stage of the early levels as Lock constructs fortifications in the face of the oncoming enemy horde.

we absolutely cannot handle ginger beer, it's way too sharp a flavor for us, but this particularly strong ginger ale is good
