An Interstate 76 sequel/remake with modern graphics, physics, controls, etc.
The vehicle combat in Cyberpunk 2077 2.0 gave me a bit of a glimpse of that.

There's some small issues with the alt key behaviour in some applications (and workarounds for that), but other than that it works really well for my OS X configured brain.
I have Tyrian 2000 on GOG as well and was feeling nostalgic. I could replicate the issues and here's what I did to fix it.
- Installed the game with Heroic and added it (automatically) to Steam.
- Applied a community control layout named "Tyrian" to fix the mapping issue.
- Launched the game from Steam and used the onscreen keyboard to press 3 to go to "Game DOS settings". I had to run it twice before the controls worked for some reason. Change the music device to "FM Sound" (I think the default was "Midi 330h") and saved.
- Returned to the launch menu and pressed 1 to launch Tyrian 2000.
I usually like running DOS games in EmuDeck/Retroarch though.
Not sure this is real but it's the closest I could find to the origin of the image dated April 2nd, 2021.
in much more interesting news, today at work I got to explore an abandoned 500-year-old castle, seized by the state because of the owner's massive tax evasion
So yes the place is 500yo, but it has been renovated 40 years ago, after being half destroyed during WWII. So it's got ugly 80s decor vibes. And yes it's called a château
"At the conclusion of the party, Mrs. Paxson took her daughters home while Mr. Paxson stayed to help clean up after the party. After Mr. Paxson assisted in the party cleanup, he drove his Jeep Gladiator towards his home in Hickory."
Philip Paxson wasn't familiar with the area and didn't know the bridge was collapsed, the lawsuit said. "Google Maps directed Mr. Paxson to travel home over the Snow Creek Bridge. Unbeknownst to Mr. Paxson, a very large section of the Snow Creek Bridge had collapsed in 2013 and was never repaired," the lawsuit said.
There was no artificial lighting, "and the area was pitch black at 11:00 p.m.,"
Seems pretty simple to me. I have put complete faith in Google maps in poor lighting before and it's literally never occurred to me that it may direct me over a bridge that doesn't exist.
Reading this story I decided to boycott everything related to Elon Musk.
Additional veterinary reports show the condition of a female monkey called “Animal 15” during the months leading up to her death in March 2019. Days after her implant surgery, she began to press her head against the floor for no apparent reason; a symptom of pain or infection, the records say. Staff observed that though she was uncomfortable, picking and pulling at her implant until it bled, she would often lie at the foot of her cage and spend time holding hands with her roommate.
Animal 15 began to lose coordination, and staff observed that she would shake uncontrollably when she saw lab workers. Her condition deteriorated for months until the staff finally euthanized her. A necropsy report indicates that she had bleeding in her brain and that the Neuralink implants left parts of her cerebral cortex “focally tattered.”

He does. It’s an old Disney scam where they slightly rename a series to reset contract terms back to first season. Needs to be addressed by all the guilds/unions and crushed!

First game was Safari Race on a Sega SC-3000. After that mainly played PC games when they were a thing and had a 1st gen Gameboy.
I gave up on games and tried to adult through my 20s... but after a bad breakup I bought an Xbox-360 and Skyrim and it's been a hobby ever since.
TIL that aeroplane is commonwealth english.
