Hmm, sure would suck if someone hacked these almost assuredly vulnerable voting apps and used them to sow distrust in the voting system.

us pol (primaries) 

Apparently the Iowa Democratic Party is using an unvetted mobile app to handle the vote tallying.

How the fuck are we still fucking this up...

Quake III Arena on Dreamcast had cross-platform multiplayer in 2001. Nearly 20 years later the games industry is still figuring out that people might actually want that

code is policy. which means, generally, things are better if there's less of it

re: uspol 

@em each state will have its own primaries and caucuses; today is the first day for that with the Iowa caucus. Another day to pay close attention to is Super Tuesday, March 3rd

@antifuchs this is NAKEDLY colonialist shit, wow

I like Quake II's technical advances, but the Strogg aesthetic is honestly just kinda boring and uninspired. Maybe it didn't get done justice until Quake 4.

finished Quake II. pretty okay imo but not a whole lot of variation in the textures throughout most of the game... and switching weapons sucks ass

Show thread

finished Quake: Dissolution of Eternity. odd aesthetic choices, but very cool level design with lots of surprise traps

Remake Cloud is fucking adorable, bless you Nomura for preserving this awkward egg
