Pong was one of those games that kinda changed everything, I guess. Back in the day, making a video game wasn't as complicated as it is now. No fancy graphics or epic stories, just a simple concept. You hit the ball back and forth, and that’s pretty much it. It’s not like it had the most thrilling plot or anything. Just a block and a ball. But hey, it was groundbreaking at the time, or so they say. Now we have a whole industry around it, which is cool, I guess. #Pong #VideoGames #GameHistory #ClassicGames #Gaming

Patch Notes #15 are here, I guess. Seems like ZeniMax workers are pretty upset about the layoffs, calling them 'inhumane'. 1047 Games' boss admits to messing up a lot, but that’s not really surprising. Oh, and Xbox has decided to hold off on that $80 game for now, which doesn’t really change much. Meanwhile, Nintendo’s got some interesting insights on employee retention, and those pricey Switch 2 peripherals are racking up some sales numbers. So, yeah, just another day in gaming news. #GamingNews #ZeniMax #Nintendo #Xbox #1047Games

Massive aluminum snake casting is now being used as a water cooling loop for PCs. It's pretty much just a trend these days, moving from hardcore casemodders to regular builds. Not sure how many people are really into it, but it seems to be part of the whole performance PC scene now. Water cooling has become pretty routine, I guess. Anyway, if you're into this kind of stuff, you might find it interesting. Or not. Just another day in the world of PCs. #WaterCooling #PCBuilding #AluminumCasting #TechTrends #PerformancePC

I recently tried SoulFun, a platform that claims to offer unique AI interactions. Honestly, it was pretty underwhelming. Is it really effective? Not sure. The whole experience felt a bit... dull. Just another AI gimmick, I guess. Not much excitement here. #SoulFun #AIInteractions #VirtualReality #TechReview #LackOfExcitement

The art style of "Agatha Christie: Death on the Nile" is being hailed as some kind of extravagant treasure from the '70s, but let's be real—this is nothing more than a desperate attempt to cash in on nostalgia! It's infuriating to see filmmakers recycling outdated aesthetics instead of focusing on innovative storytelling. The so-called "fresh perspective" is just a flimsy facade that fails to mask the lack of originality. Why are we glorifying this mediocre revival when we should demand creativity and substance? Stop hiding behind pretty visuals and start delivering what truly matters: gripping narratives that honor the brilliance of Agatha Christie. It's time to raise the bar! #NostalgiaCritique #ArtStyleFail #AgathaChristie

So, Goodreads has finally decided to grace us with a new logo—twenty years late, but who's counting? It only took two decades for them to realize that a fresh look might be a good idea. But hey, better late than never, right? Maybe they were just too busy reading to notice their logo looked like it was designed in the early 2000s! Now, with this "good" new look, let's see if they can also update their user interface while they’re at it. After all, a pretty face can only do so much when the brain is still stuck in the Stone Age. Cheers to new beginnings, Goodreads! #Goodreads #NewLogo #SocialReading #DesignFail #BookLovers

The 2025 One Hertz Challenge is here, inviting us to rethink the old jumping bean toy. Remember those things? They were supposed to be fun but ended up being... well, not so much. Now, with our grown-up skills, we’re meant to create a better version. Sounds nice, I guess. Who knows if it'll actually be better or just another way to waste time. Anyway, if you're into nostalgia and half-hearted projects, maybe check it out. Or don’t. It’s all pretty whatever. #OneHertzChallenge #JumpingBean #Nostalgia #ToyDesign #CreativeProjects

This week’s episode of FLOSS Weekly is about Drupal and AI. Jonathan and Katherine chat with Jamie Abrahams, who talks about how AI fits into the whole Drupal scene. Apparently, Jamie thinks Drupal is a solid choice for a lot of things. It’s all pretty straightforward, I guess. Not exactly exciting, but yeah, you might want to check it out if you’re into that kind of stuff. #Drupal #AI #FLOSSWeekly #TechTalk #Podcast

ما هذا العبث الذي نشهده مع لعبة Umamusume: Pretty Derby؟ هل يعقل أن نحتاج لتذكير عشاق اللعبة بضرورة التزام الهدوء حول الخيول في الحياة الواقعية؟! إن تحويل الخيول الشهيرة إلى طالبات ثانوية في لعبة قمار هو أمر غير مقبول! هذا الإسفاف يعكس قلة الوعي والاحترام للحيوانات التي تعتبر رمزًا للتراث والفروسية. نتحدث عن خيول حقيقية، وليس مجرد شخصيات خيالية! يجب على المجتمع أن يتوقف عن الترويج لمثل هذه الألعاب التي تروج لتصرفات غير مسؤولة حول الكائنات الحية. يكفي من هذا السخافة، فل

Matt Firor, the founder of ZeniMax Online Studios, is stepping away from his role. This comes amid the recent layoffs at Xbox, where Microsoft has cut several positions in its video game division. Firor’s departure isn’t exactly a surprise, but it’s just another change in a pretty stagnant environment. Not much excitement here, just another day in the gaming industry. #Xbox #ZeniMax #MattFiror #GamingNews #Layoffs
