A new bit of cool Japan-exclusive PlayStation 1/2 controller coolness has come our way, just in time to feature in an article about some of our more unusual pads: The Cyber Connect Rensha Controller 2.
This is one the poshest controllers of its time I've ever held.

To all my American friends. I know this year has been rough for many of you. But I hope you still have many things and people to be thankful for this year. Let’s look forward to next year with the belief that things will improve. Happy Thanksgiving!

Piracy is the free market at work—capitalists just don't really believe in the free market. People pay for what they value and don't pay for what they don't.
(FWIW though, get a library card. They'll have everything—digitally too—and it's a meaningful act)

piracy discourse is so exhausting and passe, but i will observe that every truly great collector of physical media I know has a big harddrive of pirated books and movies. you literally cannot have one without the other

I honestly don't think that Valve will back down even in the face of negative press across the industry, because that will require them to actually address issues. That will require meetings, and discussions, and maybe publishing their content policies where anyone can see them.
Valve hate effort.

with Black Friday being this Friday the 28th, this is the time to maximize the impact we can have via call campaigns
If you plan to participate in this call campaign, imo you should heavily prioritize calling Visa/MC as heavily as possible between the 27th and the 1st of dec

Spoke to my source familiar with internal workings at Mastercard. The holiday call campaign re payment processor censorship is working, there is a lot of pressure being felt from your calls. This is resulting in increased response times at a core moment for Mastercard due to the holiday season

there were a couple weeks where i tried Perplexity to see if AI search engines were any good.
They aren't.
If you disagree let me make something clear: I am better at searching than you.

one of the coolest things about ChatGPT is how you can actually just never use it. you can fill your whole entire life with simply not once using it. it's incredible.

The mascots at Namco’s Wonder Eggs theme park were named after the four Forms of Play in Roger Caillois’ “Man, Play and Games,” which inspired Toru Iwatani (Gee Bee, Pac-Man, Libble Rabble) to join Namco and which he hand-distributed to every Namco employee
i was going through my X archives and found this by @superpodsaga.com, which I qrt'd at some point years ago
so, let me bring the question back: what is the most useless piece of video game knowledge you know?

You're told it'll sabotage your career if you're a vocally politically opinionated, queer, woman. But things sabotaging my career are systemic xenophobia, sexism, and horrible job market. Which are a direct consequences of people not being vocally opinionated in the first place.

Reminder that removing planned obsolescence and creating modular, open, standards-based tech that is repairable and made to last is one of the goals of "degrowth".
People wont be poorer with good, efficient tech. You just wont be get the bloated growth figures of continually expanding consumption.

there has been no meaningful improvement in the devices or their functionality in 10 years in any way that affects what any normal person uses them to do, people only switch when forced updates cause a device which worked fine yesterday to lag so bad you can't type at full speed until you replace it

It cannot be said enough, nearly every Democrat who listens to Carville loses, and nearly every Democrat who does what he's against wins. We just had an overwhelming demonstration of that a couple weeks ago. Put this zombie out to pasture already. He's useless.
The article is called "Out With Woke". He specifically calls for sacrificing all marginalized communities upon the altar of the revered white male. Is that how desperate liberals have gotten for any sort of hollow "win"?

We did something different with the credits for Demonschool. We used this format: name, title, lengthy description of what they did. Often you see credits in games where you don't know what the credited developer was actually responsible for. We wanted to give people proper, actual credit.
