@vampiress I love this kind of this, like how Day of the Tentacle had the full game of Maniac Mansion playable on a computer in a bedroom. I also think there was one Infocom game where you could play all of Zork inside another game?
@mark @aparrish Now I need to make one that says something like, “I can’t tell of you are honking or not, I’m listening to City Life by Steve Reich”
Hoping to be promoted to businessman so I can have a machine like this
This winter is going to be amazing
While I understand that it has become a bit of #StarTrek trivia that if you look closely, you can see that Scotty is missing the middle finger on his right hand in a few brief shots, as James Doohan lost his right middle finger in WWII, there is no need to digitally remove Martin Quinn's right middle finger when he plays Scotty (like in #StarTrekSNW's "Hegemony"↖️). In "Wolf in the Fold"↗️ and "Relics"↘️, in longer close-ups of Scotty's right hand, he is not missing his middle finger, as a hand double was used. Also, in all of #StarTrekTAS ("One of Our Planets is Missing"↙️), he has all 10 fingers.
There is no need to write an episode in which Scotty loses a finger because he still has all of his fingers, as seen in these screenshots. The fact that James Doohan was missing a finger was cleverly hidden on the show and there is no need to feature this fact because, as I said, he still has all 10 fingers as seen in the screenshots.

Atari 2600 Myst Demake -- finished

I'm declaring this complete. You can get all 4 endings, solve two puzzles, walk around Myst island, and complete the speedrun route. All on a 16k cartridge

Here's a longplay recorded on real hardware

I wasn’t sure if I should take this selfie during my run today, I was afraid it’d be too corny 😂
