I will not shut up about the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. I talk about them all the time and work them into every conversation I have. I built a shrine in my room for the yellow one who died because sadly no one noticed because she died around 9/11. Wanna see it?

smh if you think china is the innovator or instigator or whatever

its a mutual give&take. US capitalists do this, chinese capitalists do that, capitalists elsewhere do a third thing, but they all work together. there are no borders in capitalism.

we all get hosed in the end

oh nice, 2017's exceedingly cyberpunk Hauer-em-up Observer is getting a bit more tlc with a redux.

https://www.alphabetagamer.com/observer-system-error-beta-demo/

the original was the epitome of overly-ambitious euro-jank but it oozed style and atmosphere, so I hope this sands off some the rough edges.

Beta demo: https://store.steampowered.com/app/1386900/Observer_System_Redux/

edit: oh nice the preorder (never preorder games) is 80% off until September 16.

lol I posted some SSS in the pics thread but I'd forgotten just how proto-cyberpunk the video for 21st Century Boy was - released the same year as Neuromancer to give it context. I bet the Cyberpunk rpg guys saw this a lot when they were considering the Rockerboy archetype.

as a youth in the 80s I found myself in a record store with $20 in my pocket and a choice: get SSS's debut LP or PIL's "Album", since i'd already picked out The Suburbs' double album. I chose Sputnik. :c00l:

My user name comes from the liner notes of the SSS Flaunt It reissue from about 99/2000ish

Also I was one step away from live audition with Tony as keys for the SSS touring unit about that time, until he found out I didn't use Mac.

So I ordered this book on Aug 10th and amazon totally said it was in stock. I checked the following day and amazon is like "lol we ain't got none" so ok I have to wait. The order says it will email. Ok cool. I check periodically and last weekend amazon was showing the book was back in stock but my order still showed that it hasn't been shipped! No email. I got mad. Eventually I just canceled the order and then bought it again.
