HOLY SHIT. They found the genes for fibromyalgia - and it's *not* autoimmune, it's the central nervous system. It's very cool to see some progress made on the thing that's ruined my life since late teenage years!
Medical Republic: 'Fibromyalgia finally gets a genetic fingerprint'

'Additionally, certain risk loci overlapped with long covid (BPTF) and ME/CFS (OLFM4, RABGAP1L/GPR52), two poorly characterised disorders, albeit with different lead variants.'

LRP: and sure enough 'plan 9 from mission hill' was one of his credits! rewatching that one it really did stick with me all these years.

wow I've been in the middle of a sporadic binge-watch of this one thanks to a youtube video that thankfully the copyright cops haven't gotten to yet, I loved this show back in the day! so sad to hear this news.
Bill Oakley shared this sad news on Twitter, hadn’t seen it here yet: Dan McGrath has passed away.

A fantastic writer for SNL, Simpsons, Mission Hill (he wrote many fan’s favorite episode), King of the Hill, The PJs, and Gravity Falls. Any comedy nerd of the last 40 years knows so much of his work

WTAF?! IDK if I have any TX area moots in the retrogaming realm but definitely be looking out!
I’m hoping we have a tight enough scene that if someone spots this stuff for sale we can catch these shitheads
KIRO 7 ran an article and two TV pieces on the theft of a box truck full of arcade PCBs, artwork, and machines from my workplace yesterday. If anyone in the Seattle area sees someone offloading a ton of CPS2/NAOMI/Neo Geo PCBs, stuff of that nature, please reach out.

A couple of decades ago I created a 'font engine' that allows anyone to create text images using 179 (and counting) fonts from arcade (and etc) games.

imagine my shock when I found out that sandworm that kills you a minute into the game?! NOT in the IIGS version at all! one I might have to track down, if I can find it for a good price on Genesis, I've always wanted to figure it out. also I love the artwork in this one!

OLR Did You Know:

If you add up every existing episode (including specials) of OLRs record run it's 2,742 hrs 14 mins and 44 secs worth of content (thanks to the OLR Achieve).

If you were to listen to every episode nonstop it would take you 114 days 6 hours and 15 mins.

one of my all time favorites! also confirming a fan theory I had always wondered about. I know folks are tired of reboots but I would not be mad if this came back in some form!!

not a series I ever got around to (denTetsu on the other hand, I acquired randomly on PS2) but seems interesting enough, especially with these upgrades!
There's some mixed feelings out there about the tendency of game companies to take a game that's only a few years old, polish up the graphics, and then re-release it at full price. Momotarou Densetsu Turbo on the PC Engine demonstrates that this goes back a long time...
