"Games are too expensive now!"

Really? Take a look at this Maxis Product Price List from their 1993 product catalogue, and compare it to the adjusted prices for today's dollar.
The maxis product price list with 11 titles on various platforms. The prices for games available on D.O.S. range from $49.95 to $69.95. Spreadsheet comparing the prices of the same games against their inflation adjusted prices. $1 in 1993 is worth $2.24 in 2025 According to the US Bureau of Labor Statistics. The prices of the games range from $111 to $156.

No AI was used in the making of this game. We pay artists for all our assets and marketing images/ videos, translation teams, devs, etc. We are proud to be a 100% human-made game.

Took a peek inside my #Zune HD today and found that it's dedicated to "our Princess" on the inside of the back cover.

Turns out that Princess is an admin assistant on the team who passed away. A nice tribute, hidden inside a failed product.

A Microsoft Zune HD sits atop its box. A hand holds a the rear metal cover of the Zune HD showing its backside (the side normally not seen unless taken apart). There's a number of manufacturing marks but also there's "For our Princess" silkscreened on in a handwritten-style font.

the UI design of the employee ordering software at fast food joints is such an interesting look into nearly the opposite of the spectrum of modern-day UI design.
screenshot of the software mcdonalds uses for employees to ring up an order. it's a grid of icons of varying colours and shapes, some with pictures of food others with numbers, but it's all laid out very methodically and intentionally.

a car this big genuinely should not be legal for regular personal use.
