Gamedev Unsung Heroes

I'd like to announce I have a new(ish) Podcast! It's called GameDev Unsung Heroes, and it's basically interviewing all the names in games you don't know about what they do, their career path, a few stories along the way. All free.

Here's the link gamedevunsungheroes.com

I could use re-posting :)

I Am An AI Hater I am an AI hater. This is considered rude, but I do not care, because I am a hater.

My oldest to me, β€œand dad, if you eat the large dot you can eat the ghosts. Did you know that?”

Me: β€œYes, yes I do. I was there when the large dot was created….β€œ

If he wasn't a vampire why did he die when I drove my wooden stake through his heart?

Got to see Transvision Vamp play last night here in New Zealand. In 2026!
Never thought I'd see the day and they were amazing.
Wendy James is still kicking arse.

I don’t get to gigs as much as I’d like. But going to Transvision Vamp (of all bands to come to NZ!) tonight.

I’m normally way behind. Somehow yesterday FB showed me a recommended post from someone I don’t follow for the oz gigs.
I’d go see them if they were in wgtn but I’ve seen Maiden & can’t justify the expense for mustaine.

It made me very happy to post a link to Dayglo Abortions' song Hide the Hamster in context. πŸ˜‚

But now it's 06.48am and I'm blasting Dayglo Abortions.

Which might be the wrong speed to put me in the mood for seeing Transvision Vamp tonight.

Maybe my brain isn't working properly this early in the morning, but when I saw ASSISTS, I thought, is that fine connoisseurs of ass?

Now I see it without tracks and that red colour, it kinda reminds me of Tetsuo's bike in Akira. πŸ˜† I'm now curious to see what it looks like with rubber on those rims. haha
(very nice work btw)

That would be horrible if true, but I can't see any source or evidence. Just an internet post.

The movie had a lot to live up to when I finally saw it and it was a complete disappointment compared to the soundtrack.

ah well I was on there, but my amiga was crashing so often yesterday that I switched to irssi.
But I guess I had too many disconnections and got banned.
So I'm also on ##amiga on liberachat.
Trying to find more #irc channels.

what are some good #retrocomputing #irc channels/servers?
I'm on #amiga @ ircnet but it's quiet atm.

24.02.2026 08:20 πŸ‘ 2 πŸ” 0 πŸ’¬ 1 πŸ“Œ 0

started using #irc again on the #amiga.
been a few decades since I used it properly, but I go back every now and then.
Tried AmIRC and WookieChat and liked WC, but the Amiga keeps crashing (when I'm coding or messing around with other s/w) ... so gone back my old fave irssi on a modern machine.
