Re: Trump Leaving Office Poll (Part 2)
I'd take it with a grain of salt given that the source for that is Trump's lawyers, but we'll see. AIUI the reason he went with Chubb on the last bond was they were the only org he could find that would accept real estate as collateral. (Disclosure: I worked for Chubb for 6 weeks in 2011, or at leas...

Re: Trump Leaving Office Poll (Part 2)
Judge McAfee rules that Willis can continue with the Georgia prosecution provided Wade doesn't. The case is appealable, by either side. Notably, McAfee's decision leaves the possibility open that if the appellate court decides to disqualify Willis, that doesn't necessarily disqualify the line prosec...

Re: Hot game deals
I do love the over-the-top silliness of Yakuza. And own five games in that series that I haven't played. But OTOH it's not like $10 is a whole lot to ask. I think I got SR2 on GOG or something at some point but I never played it; I hear the Windows version is kind of a mess and doesn't work on moder...

Re: Hot game deals
Steam sale's on. Looks like a lot of games on sale that frequently go on sale anyway. If you're in a Toriyama kind of mood, various Dragon Quests are on sale, and Chrono Trigger's $7.50. I think I might go ahead and snag that one; it got panned pretty badly on release but from what I've read they fi...

Re: Hey [%target] Whatcha Playin'?
Llamasoft: The Jeff Minter Story is out, and I'm just going to gush one more time that Digital Eclipse's interactive documentaries are one of the most exciting developments in video game history in years. Minter's something of a blind spot for me. I've heard of Tempest 2000, of course, but had never...

Re: The Democrats Will Also Shit Themselves.
Not for nothin', the latest round of "Biden is senile" talk in the media was a result of Robert Hur's summary of Biden's deposition, which, now that we've got the transcript, doesn't really make him look as addled as Hur suggested. I'm not sure I agree with the liberal pundit consensus tha...

So is this... a good thing? like are we supposed to celebrate this? has this defanged the law to where to basically counts as not existing at all? i honestly don't know, i'm not being sardonic.

Re: GOP Will Shit Itself
+1 Dem in Congress also helps out with current obstructionist bullshit. I mean, obviously it doesn't tip the scales, but cuts the GOP's majority even slimmer. GOP Rep.

I haven't sunk nearly as many hours into Shredder's Revenge as Turtles in Time, but it's got a wonderful, varied set of stages, it's stuffed to the brim with fan service but in, like, a way that makes for clever and creative design choices rather than just Memberberries. Like, one stage is a mall an...
