This is my fun social media account, I will post a lot of video game stuff (mostly old or cloud gaming) and some work stuff.
If I post an image with no Alt text it is because the image is just there for decoration and doesn't provide any extra meaning to the toot.

@reefbuoy that was super cool wasn't it? I'm amazed we haven't had more controllers with screens since :)

The new title, ENCODYA looks beautiful.
@GottaLaff anything Musk touches is putrid. Are we surprised that the EV equivalent of the Volkswagen emissions scandal was perpetrated by Tesla?

X’d out?
“About a decade ago, #Tesla rigged the dashboard readouts in its electric cars to provide “rosy” projections of how far owners can drive before needing to recharge, a source told Reuters. The automaker last year became so inundated with driving-range complaints that it created a special team to cancel owners’ service appointments.”

@gpowerf what I really want is a handheld priced like the miyoo mini that can run gamecube games. I think they've fallen to like $150 in the last year, so we're getting close

Bunch of rowdy looking kids calling out to passers by and appear to be dispensing complements.
I am reliably informed that my T-shirt is “sick”.
Lovely stuff 😊
@wiredfire lol! That's a trend I can support.
My son’s Powkiddy RGB20S and my Miyoo Mini.
We live in great times! These affordable emulation handhelds are phenomenal.

@trinsec I'm at the point where I hear about heatwaves becoming the norm and I'm looking forward to it. This summer has not been great.

I always loved technology and it's exciting to see what potential applications LLMs like Chat-GPT have. Unfortunately... one application I really don't like is how the internet is being flooded by absolute dog shite quality "articles" and "blogs". I hate this so much 😭 it's contributing to how Google can't find good results anymore AND makes the internet worse #ai #gpt
@trinsec I never played Skyrim, but RDR2 isn't just the open world. The world and NPCs are highly believable compared to most of the games I've played.

3 games that blew my mind:
* Super Mario Bros 3 (NES): This game blew my mind at the time, it seemed much more complex than previous platformers, levels were more varied, sprites seemed more detailed, and the game had a serious depth that surprised me! Powerups, different suits for Mario, maps, etc... At the time it was incredible!
* Gran Turismo: This game at the time seemed vast! My impression is that it was a game but also a car encyclopedia. At the time I even thought the future of the motoring press would be virtual like this, I pictured a "magazine" becoming a virtual experience where you would test drive and compare various cars accurately modelled.
* Red Dead Redemption 2: Again this is a game that blew me away with scale and depth. When I discovered that NPCs had houses, jobs, families, etc I could never rob one! I did bad deeds in missions, because I had to progress, but I ended up never robbing anyone.
