The most recent commercial game using the modified 2.5D Doom engine, was released in May 2024 on Steam. It is called Selaco.

US Civil war vets who lived to be 90 married little girls at the end of their life. Usually it was an arrangement. The little girls would then be eligible for the pension and it transferred to them when the veteran died. Some of these girls themselves lived to their 90s, hence you had state governments still pay civil war annuities in the era of TikTok.

I guess the world burning was worth sticking it to Kamala for Gaza.

SiS 6326 with 8MB.

It was 1999 but I had a very limited budget, around $400, for the entire system. This was my first AGP card.

The Wikipedia article says that this was not supported well by Linux but that's just not the case. It was the first card for Linux and FreeBSD that I had which let me view more than 256 colors. I ran KDE 1.x and then XFce.

Something happened between then and 2001 where I got a GeForce 2 MX 400 which ran fine with FreeBSD for many years.

This has been the story of Linux since the 1990s.

BSD does the same thing. They famously stuck at the gcc 4.2 series about a decade too long because of licenses.

Nothing new under the sun.

It's an incredibly fun and popular sport and the World Series just ended.

Articles like this are good at highlighting that nothing sacred is safe from climate change.

If a couple dozen people read the article from a baseball fan's perspective and suddenly it clicks for them, it's a win.

No. Space Force chief wants more money, of course there's another disaster coming.

If they were serious about space tech, the first step would be to end all contracts with compromised Elon Musk.

Also, ArsTechnica is kind of a dumpster fire on reporting anything PRC and allowing ethnic slurs in the comment section so take it with a grain of salt.

Fun interview, I didn't realize he was educated as an actual medical doctor.

In my state, getting at least 2% of the vote for either Governor or President in a general election keeps the Party on the ballot for the next election.

Without hitting that 2% threshold, the party loses its official status and has to go back to petitioning status, which means resources are tied up both canvassing for tens of thousands of signatures and fighting in courts to get reinstated. So it's a perpetual ground game and prevents the party from taking off.

The Libertarian Party has remained above that threshold for about a decade now, the only third party to do so consistently, and that's pretty scary.

Two brothers in town for their sisters' wedding were killed while riding bikes last night. One is an NHL hockey star. Fuck cars. Also, sorry for linking TMZ, it's more detailed than the SI article.
