The first Pinball game on a computer that I remember playing was Night Mission Pinball (1983) by Bruce Artwick. The combination of CGA and PC speaker looks (and sounds) truly awful now but playing it back then was a blast. Real pinball machines would cost money - and generally... show more

Does anyone know this game? I never played it in the arcade, but I had a lot of fun playing it on a PC DOS computer. All you had to do was beat your rival, but they would chase you so closely that the tension was incredible. When you win a race, you can use the prize money to upgrade your car, and with the variety of tracks, it never gets boring. I also have great memories of sitting with my friends, three of us sharing one keyboard and playing together. 😆

Hunter Dickinson on his one season playing for Kansas men's basketball "I had expectations coming in of what it was going to be like. And, you know, it was even better than I expected to be able to play for Coach Self, to be able to play with these guys and just be able to play and Allen Fieldhouse...you can kind of almost dream of, you know, when you're growing up playing basketball to be able to play on the stage for this program. You know, obviously it didn't go the way we wanted to, But, you know, I had a lot of fun this year and, you know, I wouldn't trade it for the world."

I grew up with the C64 (early 80s) as so many of you here. My very first game ever, the one that my brother and I played to death, was Falcon Patrol (1983) designed by Steve Lee. If there is one sound I will remember until my final days, it will be the refueling sound of the jet. What was your first computer and the very first game you played on it? (Not a game that you played at your friend's place or at the arcades - but the first game on your very own first computer)

Dear 2016 Wilbert Ross, You probably didn't know it then, but that first step onto the national stage would be the beginning of a journey that would take you places you could only dream of. You didn't win that competition, but you left something behind. An impression. Years later, you would find yourself back on that same stage, not as a contestant, but as a member of Hashtag. There would be so many more stages after that. So many roles, risks, challenges, dreams, and moments that would shape the person you would become. And through all of it, you would keep going. And now, the boy who once stood on that stage hoping for his chance is finally standing on one that is entirely his. Not because the journey was easy, but because you kept walking despite the bumpy roads. So, thank you for not giving up. Please know that it was all worth it. You will make it. 🧡 WRTEN BY WILBERT ROSS #WilbertRoss | #WilBea #WRMultimediaWonder

I was 10 when I first saw and played Karateka. "Little me" thought it was awesome. Did I mind the 4-color CGA graphics? Nope. And neither was I bothered by the rather dreadful PC speaker sound. What hooked me instantly was how fluid the animations looked, how the game was paced, and the story told. You truly felt being the hero. You also truly felt the kick in the nuts the very first time when running towards the princess. What's maybe difficult to see from today's perspective is how Karateka (1984 by Jordan Mechner) moved the goalposts so far that it’s difficult to put into words. Genre-defining would be the most fitting attribute. Up until that point a game of this caliber simply didn't exist. And if that wasn't enough to make it legendary, then consider that it was Mechner's first game. He was 20 when it was released, meaning he started working on it and programming it solo as a teenager. What a way to say "hello world!"

"At school or university, the thing is to be brilliant and to get the answer right first time. And there are brilliant people who can do that, but for the rest of us, we're not brilliant. And to get there, we have to strive and we have to go through failure. And we realize that you don't get it right first time, you don't get it right second time. In my case, and I counted it, it's 5,127 times. One of the things I always want to say is that sounds like a struggle. It was a struggle, but actually it was a hugely enjoyable struggle. The debt was mounting and I had three children, a wife and a home, and then a mortgage to pay, like everybody else. But I had a real point in life, I had a real aim and I had to get there. And the failures were interesting because I'd learned from every single one of them."

What's a game that was annoyingly hard (borderline impossible) but you went back to it and tried over and over again? My arch-nemesis was Ghosts 'n Goblins. I can't tell you how many hours I poured into it in the 80s. We played the absolute crap out of it, and it was so incredibly unforgiving. Yet we kept playing… again and again. What was your love/hate-relationship game?

Two years ago, I wouldn’t have been caught dead at a Trump rally. I was a liberal, I thought Trump was awful. Tonight was a beautiful moment to remember just how far I’ve come in 2 years. Yes, I’m frustrated with a lot, but I’m reminded just how INSANELY GOOD we have it. Do you remember what it used to be like? Do you remember how bad it was? I remember screaming on X for the Biden administration to help Western North Carolina for MONTHS. All I got was silence. I was mocked by Biden’s FEMA and they called me a liar for showing what was OUTSIDE MY OWN FRONT DOOR. Do you remember that? I do. Do you remember when they called illegal immigration unsolvable? I do. Before Trump got into office, I had no idea it was even a big problem, I had no idea our country was completely invaded by illegals until I got on X, and saw the truth. We are so quick to forget how dark it was before Trump came into office. I’m guilty of it just as much as anyone. But the beauty of the Trump rally, was that he reminded me of all the things he’s accomplished, and how much crap I’ve taken for granted, forgotten about, and then gotten upset about the problems he hasn’t solved yet. And I’m worried that a lot of people have or will be so caught up in the bad, that they forget the good. And there’s so much good On a personal note… I live in a very liberal city, and it was such a uniquely beautiful experience to be surrounded by people who didn’t hate me or want me dead. There’s so many good amazing people that love America and want her to succeed. That alone made the trip with it.

After reading through the tweets, it is important that I state this: I am deeply grateful to every Nigerian, and I will forever remain grateful. It may interest you to know that my elder brother and the presidential candidate of the African Action Congress (AAC), Omoyele Sowore, Omoyele Sowore was one of the first people I had to meet and appreciate on the very night I was released from DSS custody. I may not be able to mention everyone’s name, but please understand that I truly appreciate Nigerians, and my love and passion for a better Nigeria has only doubled. As for the repost of a comment made by someone else, that was an error. For now, I want us to focus on demanding a good and working Nigeria that we can all be proud of. Justice can never be cracked

The Tkachuk brothers and Connor Hellebuyck on the importance of representing Team USA... Hellebuyck: “Yeah, you know, it's one of those things, the more you say it, the more it shocks me [the U.S. had not won since 1980]. I know, as a kid, I always dreamed of watching those guys, and my big dream was to be like them one day and now, I'm in those shoes, and the next generation is looking up at us, and I want to be that role model. I want to be as good as I can on and off the ice for those kids, and I want them to know their dreams can come true. I was that young kid chasing a dream and you never know what tomorrow brings, and, you know, it can happen. Hard work, and smart work, and doing the right things. It does pay off. Matthew Tkachuk: “My dad was lucky enough to finish in four Olympics. The best he finished was a silver in Salt Lake. And he, you know, wouldn't have traded any of those experiences for that experience, he just had in Italy for us. Like, he — to him, to my mom, to my sister, to, you know, our wives, families, everything, like it was the most incredible time, probably anybody has ever had in the sport of hockey. So, we're so lucky for the support. We're so lucky for the support from our dad. I still talk to him daily about everything hockey, life-related, and I'm shocked he actually didn't cry to be honest with you, but he was very, very proud. Brady Tkachuk: “Yeah, I think that's the best part about our job is being able to be those role models, like Helle was saying, like the 1980 team, influenced so many players, then that 1996 World Cup team influenced our generation, and we — we even talked about it, that we had an opportunity in front of us that we could really impact the next generation of, you know, kids in the U.S., and, you know, a kid watching that game that never thought he would be playing hockey and ends up picking up a hockey stick and ends up being the next superstar in the NHL. So, we’re very fortunate and blessed to be in this position and to be a role model for kids.”

Kyle Shanahan recalls how he felt when Brock Purdy entered the game for an injured Jimmy Garoppolo against the Dolphins on December 4th 2022: “I just remember how good he was. The game that he came into, the duress that he was under, the style of defense they were playing at the time. The amount of blitzes that we had seen was probably the most we had seen in the six years I’d been here. At the time, he was our third quarterback to come in that year, so it wasn’t looking very good. But he didn’t hesitate, and right away, he was making plays. It was an awesome game; we were so pumped about it, but everyone was down a little bit after the game because we knew we had a good team and it was so unfortunate to lose Jimmy, which we knew would be for the year at the time. I’ll always remember going to bed that night and I was so upset about losing Jimmy. And I finally relaxed and started thinking, 'Holy cow, this guy played unbelievable, we might be all right'.” via: 49ers on NBCS

#Bengals QB Joe Flacco was asked why he’s still playing at age 40 — after making so much money, winning a Super Bowl, and having a young family — and his answer was perfect: “You only get a chance to play in the NFL once. I feel like I’ve worked really hard to be a guy that gets to play in the NFL, and I don’t want to take that for granted. I still feel like I can play the game at a high level, and I want to be able to look at myself in the mirror when I’m 50 years old and say that I gave it everything I had.”

One of the best early 80s games ever is Choplifter, from 1982, developed by Dan Gorlin and published by Broderbund. It also became one of the best selling games ever for the Apple II. I first saw and played this at a friend's house. We had a handrittwen "Highscore" list that we updated over several months, signed by all players present when we played it. One simple rule was that highscores only counted when at least one other person was present and signed it off. I wished that list didn't get lost in time. Early 80s gaming included so many things that don't exist anymore today... handwritten high score lists, drawn dungeon maps, and level codes.

Detransitioner, Soren, tells Clay Travis how she was groomed online: "As I was talking to some of those girls on the art forum, I discovered transgender identity, as a manifestation almost of the role-playing we were doing, this idea that I could adopt a new name and new appearance and almost be like the characters that we would create."

Back in the late 1980s, a friend gave me a single floppy disk as a birthday present. He told me it was something you could put games on and actually play, and I remember staring at it all day, wondering if something that magical could really be possible. I followed him to a computer academy, and that was the first time I had ever seen a computer in my life. As a reward for bringing me in, he even got a whole box of floppy disks. That was the moment I first stepped into a completely new world. And when I saw, just like in the video, games being copied onto a disk, inserted into a computer, and actually running… the shock I felt easily ranks in my top five moments of my life.

Glenn Beck just honored Charlie Kirk in the most powerful way yet...by placing Rush Limbaugh’s golden microphone on the Charlie Kirk Show desk. The mic was a gift from Rush’s widow to Glenn Beck. And now, it sits in front of Charlie’s microphone. Beck then shared a story he had never told before...one he deeply regrets not telling Charlie in person. “I want to share a story…that I’ve never shared before and I so regret that we ran out of time.” “It’s a story that I had hoped to tell Charlie myself in the next couple of months.” “When I first met Charlie…and this is the kind of guy he was…he was so gracious, when I first met him, he was young.” “And I said, so, what do you want to do? What is it you want? What? What do you want to do?” “So gracious, he said, I want to be you. I want to do what you do.” “Let me translate: I want to be Rush Limbaugh. He didn’t want to be me. He wanted to be Rush Limbaugh. He wanted to be one of the, as Rush said, radio’s greatest of all time.” “And I remember thinking, well, kid, maybe someday because I think you have it.” “I brought something with me today that I thought was appropriate while I did the show, that I would sit in front of Charlie’s microphone. It was given to me after the death of Rush Limbaugh by his wife.” “It is Rush’s golden microphone.” “I think it’s appropriate that it sits in front of Charlie’s microphone.” “What I would have said to Charlie was, you were thinking too small.” “I want to be Rush Limbaugh someday.” “I’m a broadcaster. Rush was a broadcaster, but Charlie was a broadcaster and a narrowcaster.” “Charlie was a pastor and a priest.” “And listening to the way he could argue and think differently, he was a rabbi as well, and one of the best.” “He was a political organizer.” “He was a political think tank himself.” “He was a compassionate friend.” “He surpassed Rush Limbaugh…by miles.”
