YouTube is not always a good reflection of retro gaming – especially with videos that are more than 10 years old.

But even now, YouTube doesn’t always reflect a game’s intended framerate.

Even worse, some of these YouTubers use really terrible shaders that do not represent a game’s original graphics.

I say this because too many people see the games I review, look at them on YouTube, and then pronounce an opinion on them. Yet, watching a game does not replace playing it.

Nobody should have to agree to a commercial entity's terms of service to access state services or participate in democracy
The fact that they decided to publish Hillary Clinton’s emails in 2016 to support Donald Trump, and decided not to publish Donald Trump’s emails in 2024 to support Donald Trump, shows exactly what is terribly wrong with our political mainstream media.

If we abolish the police, who will protect us from being murdered by the police?

Officer faces murder charge in shooting of pregnant Black woman who was accused of shoplifting

An Ohio police officer was indicted Tuesday on charges including murder in the shooting of Ta’Kiya Young. The Black mother was 21 and pregnant when she was killed by police in a grocery store parking lot last August. A Franklin County grand jury indicted Blendon Township police officer Connor Grubb on charges of murder, involuntary manslaughter and felonious assault. Young was suspected of shoplifting when another officer ordered her out of her car. Instead, she rolled toward Grubb, who fired a single bullet through her windshield into her chest. The daughter she was expecting three months later also died. A police union leader calls the indictment deeply disappointing.
