More pictures of my Windows 98/95/3.1/DOS gaming handheld in action. Trying to spread my joy a little in a sad time. Games shown: The 7th Guest (DOS), Under a Killing Moon (DOS), Wipeout (DOS), Star Trek: Borg (Windows 95)
I'd say that portable Windows 98/95/3.1/DOS machine project is coming along nicely. There are some definite drawbacks to using the GPD Win 2 for this, but I'm still having fun.
In happier news, I am building a handheld Windows 98/95/3.1/DOS gaming PC out of a GPD Win 2 and a 2TB m.2242 drive. So. You know. I've got that going on for me.
Also, is it just me or does Mavado from Mortal Kombat 1 look a LOT like Damian from Smosh??
And I played it all on my homemade Steam console, the PantsStation 1, seen here on the right side of my entertainment center. What a great game, a lot of fun. And I'm given to understand that more awaits me in other modes and the Khaos Reigns expansion.
Playing Mortal Kombat 1. I know it's not everyone's cup of tea, but I'm enjoying it. Looking at you, @ogreyolk.bsky.social - sorry, buddy. I'm having a ball.
May I introduce to you the PantsStation One? It has a cutdown version of the PS5 APU, with 16GB of GDDR6 RAM split between the OS and the GPU, plays damn near anything from Steam, GOG, or Epic in 1080p and handles PS3 emulation so well I spent the past week beating Dragon Age: Origins on it.
Spent the last three weeks building my own Steam Machine console out of a used crypto-mining blade, a 3D-printed case, a flex power supply, 3 90-degree USB adapters, a USB hub, and a power switch. This is a more advanced build than I usually go for, but this was one of my favorite projects ever.
Just another day, chilling, hacking my PS4, you know how it is.
Whenever I think I can't love @erikaishii.bsky.social more than I already do, she shows up to play the Pixie in the latest episode of Good Time on the Clocktower in a MAGNIFICENT outfit.

Love getting fresh 2nd Edition copies and then immediately selling some. 💙
Finished Clair Obscur: Expedition 33. It's a truly haunting, beautiful game about grief, phenomenally well-acted, and a stunning reinvigoration of the turn-based RPG.
If you haven't read Rekha and the Inevitability of Life yet, why do you hate great stories with no threesomes? To be fair, I am a little sorry about the lack of threesomes. I'll try to do better in future books. #booksky
I am so very miserable. I hate my job. Love my company, hate my job. Please buy my books. I would give a LOT to be able to quit. Thane is a mystery/thriller in paper/ebook/full-cast audiobook. Rekha and the Inevitability of Life is a fantasy/adventure sequel in paper/ebook.
18 months ago, I wrote and published Thane, a mystery/thriller, and I'm extremely proud of it. 4 months ago, I wrote and published a sequel, Rekha and the Inevitability of Life, a fantasy adventure, and I'm extremely proud of it. I'm writing the third in the trilogy, a murder mystery. #booksky
What's up Buffalo area readers? I'm going to be reading part of Thane at the Spring Writer's Night at Lock City Books! Come get a signed copy! 💙 #booksky
Got the best, most beautiful review of my novel today. Genuinely teared up reading it.
Movie you’ve watched more than six times using gifs. (“Hard mode” no Star Wars, Star Trek, or LOTR)
The great comments from readers of Rekha and the Inevitability of Life keep coming in!
