Hey. Is it April already?
(Later: To put this in context. On April 1st I had a special theme on the site that flipped the logo and titles around so that they were backwards, as well as a bunch of other stuff on the site.)
Programming Language for Games
Game developer Jon Blow is making a programming language just for games. Why is he doing this, and what will it mean for game development?
The No Politics Rule
Here are 6 reasons why I forbid political discussions on this site. #4 will amaze you. Or not.
The Disappointment Engine
No Man's Sky is a game seemingly engineered to create a cycle of anticipation and disappointment.
Good to be the King?
Which would you rather be: A king in the middle ages, or a lower-income laborer in the 21st century?
This is Why We Can’t Have Short Criticism
Here's how this site grew from short essays to novel-length quasi-analytical retrospectives.
No. It’s still March. Your computer’s clock got screwed up by Daylight Savings Time.
Lol. At least the comments page is set up right. God. Too many jokes today.
Y’know, I saw an article once on how to make this happen to people who were sponging off of your wi-fi network. I didn’t understand how to do most of the instructions, however, so I never had a chance to test it. Very clever.
Wikipedia’s front page is pretty humorous today. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page
Did you know?
… that Richard de Southchurch, Sheriff of Essex, planned to attack London with burning cocks?
…that Serge Voronoff’s surgical technique of grafting monkey testicle tissue onto human males has some modern supporters?
You’re right. That’s pretty awesome.
Heh, hadn’t even noticed before now.
Love what you did with the site. Hehe
Wha? It’s April 2nd here. You crazy behind-the-times Americans…
There’s a large ambiguously-gendered odd-eyed slightly-intimidating animal-like thing that is quietly creeping up your sweaty mostly-meaty shoulder-blades to insert its’ green-coloured poison-dripping bad-smelling fang-like teeth into your extremely-scared skin.
Happy April Fools!
My two turnips,
Lol, unencyclopedia and wikipedia switched front pages. Happy April Fools day!
For some reason, this day was entirely uneventful to me.
Ugh. When I’m ruler of the world April will have 29 days, starting from the 2nd!
I don’t acknowledge April Fools day.

Lots of April Foolery online today. :) Check out Google’s new wireless broadband service:

Ah. Google Paper. That would’ve been awesome. Heheh. Meanwhile, in a sad unrelated to April Fool’s day incident, I’m stranded in the location of my vacation. What fun!
I don’t know if any of you use xFire, but yesterday they decided to “change” the names of a bunch of the games everyone plays. For example: The most played game of the week was VirtualKnitter (World of Warcraft).
Of course you realise that your title-flipping code had a minor bug and reversed the markup too? So for a while there your titles were displaying such things as ;tg& and >/rb
… and the rest of my comment got cut off because apparently these comments have active HTML. Bah. So:
… such this as ;tg& and >/rb< :)
(I nitpick, therefore I am.)
