I used to run Counter-strike & Natural Selection servers back in the day and know a thing or two about admin abuse and developed a strong dislike of the behavior.
Seeing r/Art on reddit called out for their recent admin abuse has been utterly joyful to witness. They had to shut the whole sub down 😂

Absolutely thrilled Valve has not given up on VR. As an early adopter, I still feel it is the future of entertainment, even if the tech is still in its infancy.
And with the end of Win10, the Steam Machine and accompanying Steam OS couldn't come at a better time.

Lovely cover of "In This Twilight" by Raven Numan -- her brilliant vocals really fit the mood and atmosphere of the song's dramatic setting. And fantastic sound design by Mr. Fenton.

Unfortunately Future Ruins will not move forward this year. The reality is, due to a number of logistical challenges & complications, we feel we cannot provide the experience that’s defined what this event was always intended to be. Rather than compromise, we’re choosing to re-think and re-evaluate.

When people think about national parks, they often think about the most famous ones, but there is much more to the nation’s park system than just the 63 places formally designated as national parks. (via @us.theconversation.com) https://to.pbs.org/46qXwmU
Wonders of the National Park System are in every state. Here's where to find one near you
These sites of national significance hold surprising treasures no less wondrous than the big-name destinations, potentially right around the corner from your home.

This is a clear design flaw of #Nintendo #Switch2 that is only going to get worse over time unless they solve the card speed and size issue.
Games are only going to get larger and require faster transfer rates to run properly.

I was just outside and I did what I always do: I looked up. Vega caught my eye, and after a moment I had this odd feeling that the only thing separating me and that powerful, brilliant star is our atmosphere. Get past that and it's a straight line through 250 trillion km of literally nothing.

How does lava sound when it comes to the surface of the Earth? Listen to a lava flow oozing out of its effusive vent high on the southwestern side of #Etna, 28 August 2025. That day no visits by tourists were allowed on the site, which permitted this (relatively) clean recording

AOL is finally pulling the plug on its dial-up Internet service.
America Online's signature beeps, static sounds and screeches were the iconic way many people first accessed the internet in the 1990s.
The company says the service will officially be discontinued Sept. 30.
