Are you still allowed to buy the $1 tier and later pay the BTA price you locked in like in the good old days? I've got a tab with the BTA at $6.52.  What was the starting BTA price?  I missed the start by a few minutes.

So you think a single quote of him saying "I invented wet-on-wet" means he suddenly thinks he invented the technique? After years of stating in public that it was an old technique? Did you even bother clicking on the link I provided? And of course Ross is pally-wally with Alexander while he's...

He's not claiming he invented the technique -- his company's web site clearly states he used a "centuries old method of oil painting called wet-on-wet", but he did develop the specific formula for Magic White. Ross ripped off Magic White and renamed it "Liquid White", which his company now...

I grew up watching William Alexander on my local PBS station. The guy was able to set up a little cottage industry for himself, but he never made it big. Then one of his proteges rips him off and refuses to acknowledge him while becoming a widely-acclaimed celebrity that no one ever speaks ill...

Ross was a copycat and a fraud and an asshole. He's Edison to Alexander's Tesla. (It's not a perfect analogy, but it's the closest one I can think of at the moment.) https://www.nytimes.com/1991/12/22/arts/television-bob-ross-the-frugal-gourmet-of-painting.html

Obligatory "Bob Ross ripped off Bill Alexander" post. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ExmWbC2I_Qg And Patton Oswalt was completely wrong about Bill. But it was still a damn funny bit.

Just did it on my old laptop, because Lenovo can't apply thermal paste worth a damn. The CPU was throttling when encoding video.

Actually got one. Thanks!

Not gonna happen. Time to lower your expectations! We'll all be extra fortunate when Valve releases the remastered version of Bad Rats. As a MOBA.

Crash Bandicoot's coming to Steam July 10.  You know you want it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vz33IDiUqIU

Which is precisely why I bought it during the Winter Steam sale. So much for that logic.

It may end up in the $1 tier of a weekly bundle, so unless you're in a rush to play it, you may want to hold off for a while. Insomniac's description is on the spot -- it's Ace Attorney with birds. Since I don't have any consoles/handhelds that have Ace Attorney games, this is the next best...

I bought Aviary Attorney in the Winter Steam sale. You're welcome, monthly subscribers.  Fortunately, I'm not one of them, thanks to the regular rebundling of monthly games into the two-week bundles, but I specifically bought it with the belief that it was too obscure a game to end up in any...

Yet another Remute bundle up for preorder. https://groupees.com/remute23 9 games to start + 1 bonus for $2, 4 of them on Steam, only one rebundle, no Interplay games this time. Remute: "one of the steam games is a bit like zelda" -- apparently it's Shotgun Legend. "some action-adventure...

Almost everyone. Don't judge me.

Yeah, so I now consider them to be the key seller equivalent of Hanlon's Razor - somewhat incompetent but not malicious.

Let me tell you, I have the best... nah, I'm sick of the Trump shtick. I'll leave that to the cat. And thanks for the key. Voidu's response to their key screwup: So, free Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade on Steam, I guess. Now I have my own "y u no bai" story. Meanwhile, the price of...

So I just bought Lego Indiana Jones: The Original Adventures from Voidu -- first time I've ever bought something from them, but they're listed on ITAD, so I figured I'd give them a shot.  Transaction went through, and I got a Steam key. Except the key was for Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade...

Glad I didn't BTA on the Hunie Sekai bundle.  One additional game is a new low for Humble Bumble. The only reason I keep supporting them is because I move the charity slider all the way to the right.
