People are like:
"Oh, so you've got huskies *and* chickens? How do they get along? Aren't they scared of the dogs and don't the dogs try to eat them?"

I type faster than it takes me to speak clearly for the computer to understand (*and* proofread the result), at least last time I tried. And I guess my family might think I'm going crazy if I start shouting around character dialogs or code all day long. 😉

Also instantly back in my head:

Amazon still has my preorder from 2017 and I can't cancel it due to some "promo". German My Nintendo Store feels extra confusing with the physical version at the same price as the digital ones for some odd reason. Gives me a bad feeling about the cartridge being a key card only.

Quick test… run… yep, seems to work great so far. Too bad the player sometimes overlaps cars while passing, but guess that's what one has to pay for no real z order rendering.😉

Somewhat reminds me of Signor Rossi.

Not sure about Apple, but I'm a huge fan of the claymation aesthetics of Teams.

I'd still love to have both Lego NES and Game Boy but they're just so expensive dust catchers.

Also I'll just leave this image here:

Sounds familiar…

Didn't expect that, but okay… 85%, 84%, 84%, 84% 🥸

Imagined Expedition 33 being good, but a bit overhyped. So started it today, four hours in and… definitely my Game of the Year top contender so far.

Completely missed that! The payment date might be a bit off, though. 😉

In my head canon now: "Tibo notices a bug in the final release build."

With that being said… I always tend to just turn off whenever I see "hackers" in movies or on TV who'd make antennas or wall sockets explode etc. but X-Files always managed to just make me want to stick. They had that special "spin" on things. Kill Switch (5x11) is still one of my favorite episodes.

I remember seeing it first time even before knowing too much about programming and it felt awkward, but it was an interesting spin. The episode still has so many (for me) iconic scenes in it, like Scully asking who'd even enjoy stuff like this or when she's finally "going in".😉

Now makes me think… I'd still love to see a rerelease of Secret of Evermore…

The lantern is there, but apparently no gas mask after all (the "filter" bit is their chest". 😮

Random childhood thing that suddenly popped up again watching @monstermazeyt.bsky.social … As a kid I always had the impression the ghosts in #Zelda #ALttP would actually carry lanterns and wear a gas mask. I still kind of can't unsee that.

Finally… Really hated always seeing the GIFs, going "oooh!", then remembering the campaign hasn't started yet. 😉

Although have to confess, I'm not a fan of game manuals being a kind of bonus tier reward. Or are we talking about an actual guide? Art books and the like are a different thing, though.

Surprised? They had it coming a long way. Don't believe me? Let me help you… Looks more familiar now?

There's that typical #programmermeme about programming languages like C/C++ translated to German. I always told people I used WordBasic, which I remembered as fully translated. Finally went back, ~28 years later: No, it wasn't! 🤯 It was way worse: a weird mix of German and English! What the hell? 😵‍💫
