Perpetually tired mental health counselor, sometimes retro game streamer, comedian, Mensan, coffee connoisseur, bacon lover, chronic pain survivor, nefarious pirate, and generally all-round nice dude…
I mean the format, it’s a generic wiki formatting. Not referring to the actual content. The content they have is awesome.
Like reading about Eric Clapton…
Godly musician, absolute shit stain human being…
Acoustic Pussy is gonna be the name of my next band…
Wait are you talking cutting room? I had no idea they did that. Very weird for a site that’s just copying Wikipedia.
Such a shame…
Here’s Gideon Zhi’s response and a little explanation, from his side anyway, of what has actually happened.
If you’re not familiar, he runs Aeon Genesis, one of the longest, if not the longest, running translation groups.
One for me, but I’m off today and already enjoying a Mai Tai!

Who uses Adblock??? They’re a bullshit, sellout company.
You install Ublock Origin instead and add the annoyance and adblock-blocking lists…
There… Now you don’t need to watch ads to watch your ads. Your news and recipe sites no longer have an ad every other sentence. A couple pages still refuse to load because you have an ad blocker. You learn to live without them. Your Google searches have sponsored sites filtered out.
You tell your mother that you can’t read that article and it’s not being represented on any other news platform, and suggest it’s possibly not all that reputable. She tells you she got it from Facebook. You tell her to stop getting all her news from Facebook. You realize maybe social media is a symptom of a sick society too involved in each other’s daily doings. You delete your social media accounts and block the pages.
You decide you want to read that book from the Wikipedia page your friend recommended. You open up Libby to see if your local library has a copy of the book. They don’t, but they have digital copies of several other books by the same author. You make a note to check them out later, as they’re not about the topic you were looking for. You search Google for the book title followed by .epub download and find several sites that have the book your looking for. You put it on your tablet, then put on your shoes, and go out to the park to read your new book. While you’re walking, your coworker texts you to complain that your supervisor fired him for plagiarizing work off ChatGPT again. He doesn’t understand how they could tell.
You get to the park, sit, and enjoy your book for a while.
Heck yeah!
I still remember ruining our first copy of Impossible Mission by accidentally overwriting it! God was I in deep shit…
It totally is! Such a great movie!
30s? My steam account is about to turn 20! My first computer was a C64 and my first console was an Atari 2600… I remember the video game crash… hell, I still have my copy of ET!
What, did nobody keep the receipt to do a return?
“Nah, it’s only $3,600… Just throw it in the trash!”
Yo… Reuters, if you’re just throwing a month’s wages away, I’ve got some bills to pay…
Such a fun game… Maybe I’ll fire it up this weekend. Shame none of my friends will play it with me…
Still has some of the most beautiful water graphics I’ve ever seen in a game.
That’s a bummer, but also not entirely surprising when you consider Half-Life 3…
From what I understand, they basically have a very open work structure. People are free to work on what they want, when they want. They actually are against high workloads and do everything they can to prevent employee burnout.
I can’t say if that extends beyond the development teams to other departments like server management, but everything I’ve ever seen about them says they’re all just in it to have fun, make cool shit now and then, and of course make tons of money. The fact that their sales platform basically just prints money helps support that culture, obviously.
The whole cast is amazing. I had no idea they had so many people from TNG on there until my wife told me last night…
Let’s also not forget Keith David… That man could talk me to sleep any time…
Only $14 on Fanatical right now too. Totally worth it
