Iran has killed all connections to the outside. But in the early morning the regular internet works briefly. In that time, @hackimi.bsky.social sent me a letter about what it's like being a developer without the internet as the government tries to squash everyone:

A Game Developer Without Internet
Iran has been without internet for 9 days. Arash sent a letter as a developer without the internet, in the few moments when the great firewall faltered.

I’ve spent this morning morbidly watching the MTV channels close down and the final songs played were:
MTV Music - Video Killed the Radio Star (Buggles)
Club MTV - Don’t Stop the Music (Rihanna)
MTV 90s - Goodbye (Spice Girls)
MTV 80s - Together in Electric Dreams (Oakey and Moroder)

Required KPISS plug. Go listen to new music that makes you uncomfortable.

Well this is just delightful.
Merry Christmas! If you'd like to spend 45 minutes celebrating video game history with me, we're about to debut The Untold Story of the Nintendo Entertainment System. I worked on his ALL YEAR, and I genuinely think it will reshape how we all think about the system. www.youtube.com/watch?v=uJvp...

Ever seen a Platypus skeleton?
I hadn't.
This will always be the weirdest animal alive.
Did you know they're born with teeth?
But lose them all by the time they're grown enough to swim.
They hunt underwater using electroreceptors in their bill, while their eyes, ears, and nostrils are sealed shut.

Redlining this book, and waiting for the updates might be my game the year.
It's finally here!

The errata of The Ultimate History of Video Games by Steven Kent. Took me a few years (cough) but its many errors are now compiled for your perusal.

I will update this, so let me know of any errors you spot.
