Kickstarted my #PS3 collection with some cheap games from CeX — average price, £2! #ShareYourGames

Happy birthday @britt! Thanks for everything you do for our community. I hope you have a wonderful day. :ablobcatheart: :heart_bi:

Hey everyone, hope you’re doing well! I’ve had a long, busy and stressful week but trying to relax now and catch up on what you’ve been up to. Playing anything good? #ShareYourGames

Anyone seen this error before? Happening in both @ivory and @IceCubesApp, so I’m assuming it’s not client-specific.

It’s happening when I’m trying to post two videos to a reply that has images, both with alt text (I’ve tried without alt text and also a new post [ie not a reply] and get the same issue.)

The actual error is confusing because I’m not adding video to a post that already contains images.

This isn’t a known server-specific problem @britt @craftykraken @Sven, I’m assuming?

I remember growing up being told, “your school days are the best days of your life, enjoy them while you can!” I had a miserable time at school and this was harmful and incredibly unhelpful.

If you had a great time at school, good for you, but don’t project it onto others who may not have found out about themselves yet. If you tell someone they are having the best years of their lives when they are depressed and isolated, what does that say about the rest of their lives?

I posted these on the other site years and years ago, but I'm pretty proud of them so whether you're alone or together this #ValentinesDay whether by choice or not, I hope these raise a smile.

Smug #Valentine

Roses are red
Violets are blue
Daisies are white and yellow
I'm great at this

My wife bought me the Taito Edition Super Pocket for my birthday and it’s a lovely little handheld. It has 17 pre-installed games and takes Evercade cartridges.

It literally fits in my pocket and will be great for travelling when I don’t have room for a giant modern handheld! #ShareYourGames

The same console as the previous image. It is at the game select menu and Puzzle Bobble is selected.
The rear of the console. It is entirely turquoise with black shoulder and volume buttons. It has a Blaze blanking plate where the Evercade carts go and SUPER POCKET is embossed below.

So Chappelle and Gervais are pretty gross, we know this by now — it might be the final death knell for my Netflix account. I have to be so careful with comedy these days as I am pretty sensitive to fatphobia, transphobia and racism.

What are your favourite stand ups that don’t trade on shock value and edginess (aka barely concealed bigotry)? Bonus points if they have sets online I can watch! Mine are Stewart Lee, Richard Herring, Kate McKinnon and Aamer Rahman.

A pretty good colour match considering the GameCube has probably faded over time.

Oh cool, my physical copy of Tunic from Fangamers is finally on its way. I see it’s currently in checks notes California. Not far to go then. 🫣

Every time some company emails me about their new AI tools I unsubscribe and delete their app/service. I’m going to end up with nothing left, aren’t I?

Very pleased with this. Only £18!

Happy to just finish considering my training was obliterated by illness and injury.

A close-up of my chest, you can see a Telford 10k finisher medal, featuring a red waterwheel, and below it a race bib with “Telford 10km, 2023” and the number 554.

I managed to find a deal for the Zelda TotK Switch OLED (£264) so I couldn’t resist. I’ll demote my Super Mario Odyssey Switch to docked only and get the joy-cons’ (very slight) drift fixed.

Finally finished BioShock tonight after 17 years and two previous failed attempts!

Finally clicked as I played it more like an immersive sim than a straight FPS, and while it has some flaws (endless pipe mania, basically a corridor shooter and slightly awkward combat), the visual design, plasmids and tonics elevated it into something more than the sum of its parts. #ShareYourGames

I’m not going to lie, this is a struggle already. Three days in. Tell me it’s going to get easier (even if it’s a lie) 😭

Treated myself to a Nitro Deck for Xmas. It’s transformed the #NintendoSwitch handheld experience for me! #ShareYourGames

The Nitro Deck with my Switch OLED inserted and switched on. The screen is showing Ezio from Assassin’s Creed II, in Venice. A black carry case is above.

I’ve created a music-focused alt: @matteblack — feel free to follow me there. I’ll post about metal but also a lot of other adjacent and semi-adjacent genres too (entirely likely anything tbh).

I’ll probably start sharing some of my own music too but don’t let that put you off! #Music #Metal #Guitars

I am absolutely thrilled with this haul! I had a black #GameCube when they were current, but was always envious of those with the indigo version. Got a high quality RGB SCART cable on its way too. Can’t wait to try it out!

How my wife closes the curtains v how I close the curtains. Please tell me I am doing it right. The alternative upsets me so much!

Closed curtains above a purple sofa with teal cushions. They are tucked behind the radiator, straight and there are no gaps.

I have finished the main game of Monster Hunter: World. What is better value, Iceborne at £13 or Monster Hunter: Rise at £10?

matt, 8 days ago to random

Finished What Remains of Edith Finch on the Steam Deck over the last couple of nights. A short walking sim/light puzzle game where the protagonist attempts to unravel a mystery about why everyone in her extended family has died.

Quite poignant and eerie, I enjoyed it a lot! #ShareYourGames
