I bought a copy of Ultima II that had this paperwork for Sierra's "Hi-Res Learning" educational series. These bits of paper seem pretty rare!

The government is in full shutdown and the Republicans are refusing to call the House back into session.
Want to know why?
Because we have secured the final vote on releasing the Epstein Files and they don’t want it out.
Call GOP and tell them to swear in @adelitaforcongress.bsky.social.

The day started with tragedy with political violence in MN and instead of being scared, neighbors SHOWED UP to stand together at No Kings Twin Cities. We packed the Capitol Mall all the way to the Cathedral. Estimate 80,000+ right now. So proud of our state. #nokings #indivisible

We've added a newly uncovered #PC #DOS-era prototype today called ShelShock from Finlay Munro. Possibly a pitch for a game or just its engine. Think Damocles, but with mouse interaction and a village to explore. Now preserved at Games That Werent:

It's true and we should say it.
Describe good virtues as American. Call bad things Un-American. Not reinforcing it is how we let them get redefined.

"DEI" is not a bad word. Diversity, equity, and inclusion are fundamentally American – a reflection of who we actually are.
After centuries of erasure, we've seen progress in representation in recent years, and I don’t want to go back.

@ufdtech.bsky.social Hey man, I love your morning tech news show! What I don't love so much is the bass drop at the end of the outro tune. It's a morning show, and my wife is still sleeping, and I have a subwoofer. If I don't stop the show in time, it will wake her up. Could you help me out?

If you're rightfully pissed about tariffs raising prices and impacting the game industry (and soooo much more), here's a reminder that there's national peaceful protests happening this Saturday. Look up details in your area. 👍
Statement from Nintendo: Statement from Nintendo: Pre-orders for Nintendo Switch 2 in the U.S. will not start April 9, 2025 in order to assess the potential impact of tariffs and evolving market conditions. Nintendo will update timing at a later date. The launch date of June 5, 2025 is unchanged.

This is what revisionist history looks like, in real time. And this also is why it might appear that archaeologists and historians have to dig deep to discover the existence of powerful women and marginalized groups -- because their legacies are so often erased.
NASA workers were told to "drop everything" and spend their time scrubbing mentions of women in leadership, indigenous people, and environmental justice from the web: www.404media.co/nasa-dei-dro...

It's hard to express how much is going on here and what a big deal it is. We've been building toward this for over 8 years now, and we genuinely built a video game history research tool that is usable by anyone. We're democratizing game research through a free, no-bullshit, human-curated resource.
The Video Game History Foundation Library is now in early access. For free. For everyone. Wherever you are.
