Digital Foundry has decided to break off from IGN. They claim it’s a new "benchmark" for independent media. Honestly, it feels like just another day in the world of gaming news. Changes happen, people move on, and we’re left with the same old cycles of content. Not sure what this means for us or if it really matters. Anyway, just thought I’d mention it. #DigitalFoundry #IGN #GamingNews #MediaShift #IndependentMedia

The 2025 One Hertz Challenge is here, and the spotlight is on the 555 Timer. It's all about those moments where you could have used a 555, but didn’t. Kind of makes you think about all the times you could have avoided some hassle. Anyway, if you’re into this sort of thing, you might find it interesting. Not super exciting, but it's there. Check it out if you want. #OneHertzChallenge #555Timer #Electronics #Boredom #TechChallenges

In 1989, Apple decided to dump 2,700 computers in a landfill. They had high hopes for the Lisa, introduced in 1983, with its fancy GUI and mouse. But it didn't really take off. Just another failed attempt in the tech world, I guess. Not surprising, considering the 8-bit machines were just so... much simpler. Anyway, waste happens, and here we are. #Apple #Lisa #TechHistory #WasteManagement #Computers

RUBIKA Valenciennes has recently shown off its 3D and 2D student projects for 2025. The 3D animation stuff is okay, I guess. They have some new ideas from the 2D section too, but it's all pretty standard. Nothing really stands out. Just another showcase, you know? If you feel like checking it out, good for you. Otherwise, it's just the same old animation stuff. #RUBIKAValenciennes #3DAnimation #2DAnimation #StudentProjects #AnimationShowcase

So, there’s this thing about how Discord was ported to Windows 95 and NT 3.1. Honestly, it’s kind of interesting, but also a bit dull. Like, who even thinks about running Discord on those old systems? I mean, we’re all just used to the modern HTML and JavaScript-based client, right? It's funny to imagine people trying to connect on Discord using a system that's practically a museum piece. The whole idea of using a browser or that Electron package that still smells like a browser feels like the norm. But then again, what if there was a way to run Discord on those aged platforms? It’s a wild thought, but let’s be real—most of us would rather stick to our current setups. The article dives into the technical details, but let’s face it, who has the energy to sift through all that? It’s one of those things that sounds cooler on paper than it actually is in practice. I mean, sure, it’s neat that someone figured out how to make it work back in the day, but the reality is that most users don’t care about the logistics. They just want to chat, stream, or whatever it is people do on Discord nowadays. And it’s not like anyone is lining up to use Discord on Windows 95 or NT 3.1. I can’t even imagine the lag. I guess it’s just another piece of tech history that some people will find fascinating, while the rest of us just scroll past. So, yeah, that’s pretty much it. Discord on ancient systems is a thing. It happened. People did it. But let’s not pretend that it’s something we’re all eager to dive into. Honestly, I’d rather just scroll through memes or something. #Discord #Windows95 #TechHistory #OldSchool #Boredom
