I've had Yahoo as my browser homepage for the last 25 years. Just now, it prevented me from using the site because I'm using an ad/script blocker. Thus, I finally changed my homepage.
I would hope this would serve as a lesson, but I'm sure it won't be.

Wow, just how petty are Google about this Gmail thing? If you disable the AI scraping, they even turn off automatic spell check when you post YouTube comments on their app.

And now I can say it! Announcing: BONUS STAGE REMASTERED! A project that re-releases episodes in HD with minor art fixes and source audio, as well as early episode revamps with new audio, improved backgrounds, additional poses, and some new jokes as well! (note, last shot BG needs to be replaced)

It's done. They have one month.

I'm going to pay for one more month tomorrow, then cancel my sub. That'll give them until the end of November to say something. I'd say that's more than fair.
Seriously considering cancelling my WoW subscription if Microsoft/Xbox doesn't issue a statement soon about that Halo BS.

I'm giving them one week. If RA continues to stick to their guns by then, I'm nuking my account.

Retroachievements using the "we're just neutral It's not political!" about allowing a romhack with pokemon named
"KuKlux" that's a ghost in a hood with the ability "Justified"
don't get me started on the "terrorist" pokemon
platforming hate isn't neutral

Wow...that Spirit Crucible dungeon in Xenoblade 2 was some BS. Two mandatory elite monsters I had to run or sneak past, and Dark Souls poison swamps, to boot.

Against my better judgement, I verified my age for this app. A small temporary charge on my credit card was a lot more reasonable than taking a photo of my ID.

At a local classic gaming convention. Got some autographs from Rareware devs, and made the high score on the Gyruss arcade game. Not as much to buy this year. Just going to mill around in my Double Dare costume to figure out what to do next.

So, I didn't know about what they were doing with the new Spider-Man set in MTG Arena until today, and I think it may have killed my drive to play the game. (Just picked it up a month or two ago.)
Guess that's what happens when Final Fantasy is the reason you were interested in the first place.

In all seriousness, I hope she only appears in a completely optional and ignorable questline like the Blue Dragonflight or Baine. I don't want my character to have anything to do with her.

Boy, I know I'm getting old when I'm playing F-Zero GX on the Switch 2, and I only just 15 minutes ago realized "Oh wait, that's right! You can make save states on GAMECUBE games now!"

Figured I'd uber myself over to my local tabletop gaming store to try to get used to doing it. May need to rely on it a lot more in the coming years.

Well, time to run the new Fantasy Life game on my PC and see if the anti-cheat program that comes with it is as devastating and invasive as the doomsayers says it is.

I'm playing Yoshi's Island again for the Retro Achievements, and experiencing it again makes me certain that I never would have 100% cleared this game as a kid if I didn't get the Nintendo Power guide.
