This is an outrageous story. A farmer donated 87 acres to a small Texas city on the condition it be used as a public park. Years later, the farmer has passed away, the city sold the land to a developer, and now it will be the site of a 135,000 square foot data center

A Farmer Donated Land to Turn into a Park. The City Is Building a Massive Data Center Instead

In 1999, a farmer gave away 87 acres of land to a small Texas city to use as a park. The city sold to a data center developer for $10 million.

Recently opened up the campaign editor in StarCraft and boy, I miss the simplicity, but the amount of creativity I saw in people’s games made me want to create things too. Pico-8 has been filling that void

One of my new favorite hobbies is to find clipart and old photos from 90s era CDs on the @internetarchive
. There is something so peaceful and melancholic about these photos buried deep in some random ISO file.

Somehow I finished my #ldjam game early. I'm not complaining. Its a story about two things I deeply love: Westerns and network troubleshooting.

This joins the Pentium 4 Windows 98 build from last year as another fun overkill PC in my collection. Period accuracy is overrated, give me power!

My good friend is releasing his first game on steam! It's a pinball rage game, so if you enjoy pinball and being angry, check it out! The public demo will be available soon. #indiedev #indiegame #gaming https://store.steampowered.com/app/4592720/Flipping_Out/

Flipping Out on Steam

Flipping Out is a pinball rage game. Think: "Getting Over It" meets pinball. Control the flippers on a giant pinball field, flinging the ball higher and higher. Be careful though - one wrong flip can send you cascading to the ground.
