When life gets tough, just remember that you've faced worse... like trying to beat Karate Kid without losing a single life. #retrogaming #throwback #nostalgia #nes

Do you know what #gaming really needs? #Valve to make #controllers again, there's a whole bunch of gamers now enjoying the #SteamDeck's wonderful controls and utilising #steaminput to great effect and we don't have an official Valve controller to enjoy Steam Input on a PC to the fullest.

These don't need to be like the old Steam Controller, they should be more like the Steam Deck.

In other news when people lease cars they tend to buy less new cars.

There's a long line of little runabouts for Europe all the way from 1932's Ford Model Y to the 2023 Ford Fiesta. Many of them with a rich motorsports history too with little Fords being common rally cars as well as drag racing cars in the UK and Europe overall, there was even a trend in the US of importing small European market Fords for drag racing because technically they were "domestic" cars as they were Fords. (these cars were rather lethal for that use BTW and eventually, wheelbase regulations came in to stop their use).

This is coming to an end soon with Ford ramping down all production of small cars for Europe and concentrating on SUVs, trucks, and EVs.

I won't shed many tears for the cars themselves but the lost jobs are a real shame. And I hope all those people can find employment elsewhere quickly.

Ford is not forgetting consumers at the lower end of the market altogether though, the Maverick XL at under $23k is the current vehicle for the masses. When you consider that the Maverick has more than two and a half times the power as the base Fiesta, it is almost as efficient and can carry an almost immeasurably larger amount of stuff whilst also being more profitable for Ford and cheaper for the consumer you begin to wonder why Ford didn't stop making little hatchbacks for the Euro market long ago. #WeirdCarMastodon

This was my best #HaloInfinite game last night. This is the one modern game I’m playing right now that I’m sure I’m going to be playing into 2024… if it doesn’t die out #gaming #xbox
