Today was a special day. I scored 1,016,221 points in classic NES Tetris, the first time I broke the 999,999 maxout barrier.
With that maxout, I became the oldest person to get their first ever maxout at 46 years 319 days.
After I scored that, I learned that today would have been 7-time Tetris world champion Jonas Neubauer's 43rd birthday.
I am FILLED with incredible emotion tonight.

Does anyone else sing the chorus to "Cherish" by Kool & The Gang to themselves whenever they play or watch streams of Balatro? Or is that just me?

I'm fact that's what Lingo needs: a "phone" block. The clue is an incorrect autocorrected form of the answer. π

It's like my phone knows I've been playing Lingo. I typed in "exited" and my phone was all:

A comparison of the classic Tetris and Descent communities. Not a post I write lightly, either.

Aptiz played #Pentis again. In the beginning you can see roncli asking in the chat for the right version. About an hour later, he broke the #PentisRankings record with 60K ! Congratulations roncli π π https://www. twitch.tv/videos/2052528360?sr =a&t=11267s

Yeah, it's season 11. But the OTL Season 6 highlight reel is up, this time Fireball has taken the reins! Check out this video jam packed full of kills, deaths, silliness, and Sirius puns. https://www. youtube.com/watch?v=SXstLVjnaG o

Over on #thatbirdhellsite , someone retweeted sympathy for the people being laid off today...
...and then said that Amazon Games was hiring. You know, the one that just had layoffs in NOVEMBER.
Honestly? Tech sucks right now.

This eslint/stylistic breakup is going to give me a headache. Don't developers have something better to do than give other developers busywork?

Bing is so bad. https:// otl.gg is being blocked in their search results, and Bing webmaster tools are absolutely useless, not telling me why it's being blocked.
Does anyone know of some way to get a human to look at this and see what's wrong with it? #bing #microsoft

it's not actually common for real hackers to use two keyboards at once; that's just a stereo type.

Me and my wife, despite buying a house of nice size, always seem to get in each other's way, be it in the kitchen, on the stairs, it doesn't matter. She's all up in my two square feet.
I often joke that all I want for Christmas is my two square feet.

I got the honor and privilege of calling the NES Tetris NTSC world record today while running Classic Tetris Wars on my Twitch channel for the very first time. It was thrilling. Congratulations to Blue Scuti for his 6,609,220 level 153 performance. https:// clips.twitch.tv/DiligentDeadGo ldfishDoritosChip-cx_vDMWAjKaZUK6N

No airport hell this morning, but you know that lady that talks about security at literally every airport? I just realized, she sounds old AF.

If this security line posted signs "5 minutes from this point", "10 minutes...", etc., They'd have to post them every foot. #airporthell

@shanselman Speaking of Overload, here's something you may be interested in... recently, some community members released "Overload First Strike", a single player Overload campaign that is a complete remake of the original Descent First Strike campaign.
https:// overloadmaps.com/overload-firs t-strike
It can work with just the original game, but it works best with "olmod" as it takes advantage of some of the features it provides: https:// olmod.overloadmaps.com
