Currently playing RoboCop: Rogue City for PC from GOG - and currently, I'm loving it so far. Some 7 hours in or so.

I have this one too, the shooting is a lot of fun.

The end of an era.

I've greatly enjoyed our shared history together and have been sad to see it slowly - and then quickly - erode over the years. I have a lot of great memories of conversations and events over the five (!!) different message boards some of us occupied together and I still think about many of you periodically.

I appreciate the invite to join Discord; however, I'm unlikely to follow. I've just never been very fond of live group chats. It's why I never bothered with IRC when that started up. I prefer the asynchronous, topical, threaded format of message boards and platforms like Reddit.

This doesn't have to mean goodbye forever, though. K-man should have my email address; feel free to reach out to check in from time to time. I don't really care about videogames anymore, but I can talk cars, tech, security, travel, culture, geopolitics, family matters, bourbon, beer... whatever.

End of an era indeed. So long all, and thanks for all the fish.

Well 2026 sure didn't waste any time getting fucking started, did it.

I'm not doing especially great with all this. Kind of funny that we're talking about sunsetting the site, which undoubtedly has some posts from a billion years ago when I considered myself rather on the other side of the aisle. Which feels incomprehensible to me, but given how I was raised, I was fairly conservative for 2/3 or so of my life. Now I'm just about as far in the other direction as you can fucking get. Regardless, this admin has taken a huge toll on my sanity and financial resources. Nothing like actively watching billionaires destroy all your support systems and ruin your economy until you can't get work or afford health insurance.

Yeah, I agree it's probably time. This place has served us well for a long time but even I don't really check it regularly anymore since we've got the Discord. I've considered a variety of options given the state of the world, including using a self-hosted FOSS option either for forums or a Discord-like server, since those exist, but we've got a year to see how everyone feels about stuff and if anyone's got suggestions.
