Steam News invokes a
little Morpheus as they announce the release of
Hacknet for
Windows, a new hax0r simulation that carries a 20% launch discount for the
coming week. Here's word:
Hacknet is an immersive, terminal-based hacking
simulator for PC. Dive down a rabbit hoIe as you follow the instructions of a
recently deceased hacker, whose death may not have been the accident the media
reports. Using old school command prompts and real hacking processes, you’ll
solve the mystery with minimal hand-holding and a rich world full of secrets to
explore.
Krome Studios announces
TY the Tasmanian Tiger 4, saying this is coming
to Windows PCs
via Steam
on September 18th. This is a bit unexpected in a couple of regards, as this had
previously been a console only series, and the previous installment was released
back in 2005. Here's word:
We’re so happy to get this fourth TY game on
to Steam for a world-wide release – out in just over a month!
It’s taken a bit of time to get things together for this but now many of you
will finally be able to continue the adventures of TY with this ripper
full-fledged TY story that continues on from the events of Night of the Quinkan.
We hope you enjoy the game when it’s released next month and that TY4 is just
the first of the series to make its way to Steam! Hopefully the support we’ll
get from the community from the release of TY4 will help us achieve this!

Was toasting some bread last night and when I returned to the kitchen after a
short absence, I found it filling with smoke. It seems the timer gave out on the
toaster oven, and it didn't shut off upon reaching zero. It was pretty shocking
how quickly this escalated, as I wasn't out of the kitchen for more than a
minute before discovering the problem, though the bread was clearly already
overcooking when I departed. Anyway, I got it all taken care of before it became
a real disaster, and the toaster oven is out with the trash. The good news is
the smell of burnt bread is kind of pleasant, so the bit of odor that still
lingers is not a big problem. I'm just thankful, as under other circumstances
this could have resulted in a house fire. Scary.
