  1. Yo, I am a tired Owlbear, fam. I've been up since like 0330 when the wind made the house sound like there was an intruder. There wasn't (like I said - the wind) but I was wide awake, so whatever.

    Trixie? Nah, slept right through it. She's up in her lair, reading the Deadman Wonderland manga, which is a bit off brand for her. I mean, it's not a comedy. Should I be concerned?

    Anyway, I'm a little too tired to put effort into game recommendations tonight, so… #BlackMesa? It's Half Life remade, expanded, and improved. If you never played the original Half Life, this is the way to do it now, IMHO.

    Anyway, even Trixie is encouraging me to get to bed, so imma just pass out now. Take care of each other. Be kind, spread love, play games.

    Goodnight.

  3. I seriously don't remember the assassins/black ops troops in later stages of Half-Life being THIS difficult... seems I'm not alone. :guilded_notsureif:

  4. #Hydropower Developer No-Show Leaves #Navajos with More Questions than Answers

    Chapter officials table hydropower resolution, ask for more community info sessions as FERC seeks to end a policy blocking permits on Tribal land absent Tribal support

    via #CensoredNews, Nov. 21, 2025

    Excerpts: #KayentaAZ— "On a cloudy, rainy Wednesday afternoon, the Kayenta Chapter held its monthly meeting where a resolution by #NatureAndPeopleFirst was first on the agenda. Impacted community members from the coal-lease area on Black Mesa (#DziłYíjiin) filled the chapter house to voice concern about the resolution. But before discussions could begin, Chapter officials tabled the resolution because the developers didn’t show up.

    "Nature and People First (#NPF) are developers who are pushing #PumpedStorageHydropower (#PSH) on the #NavajoNation, particularly in the #BlackMesa region. Pumped storage pumps water uphill during low electricity prices and then releases it back downhill through generators when electricity prices are high, producing electricity and revenue. Pumped storage #hydropower, which requires huge amounts of water, is different than hydrogen, which other developers wanted piped across the Nation."

    [...]

    "#TóNizhóníÁní (#TNA) e-filed comments objecting to #FERC’s proposed policy reversal along with the #CenterForBiologicalDiversity, #AmericanRivers and more than a dozen #tribes across the US. 'For decades, #CoalMining on #BlackMesa has not only extracted coal but also billions of gallons of #groundwater to support the #mining operation,' wrote #AdrianHerder with Tó Nizhóní Ání. 'Energy projects that propose to use large amounts of water for #EnergyProduction should be vetted diligently.' Water access and reliability is crucial for our communities on Black Mesa and the southwest region of the United States.

    "Tribal communities understand the resources and impacts by industry. Any project that proposes to use groundwater when it has been heavily impacted and in a state of recovery should not be considered for continued industry use."

  9. a really cool detail in black mesa is the radio chatter during the hecu-heavy chapters (surface tension etc), it really helps sell the feeling that the incident has completely spiraled out of control

    I should play the BM remake of opposing force sometime

  10. #games #gaming #pc #nvidia #geforcenow #streaming #blackmesa #halflife #valve #steam #steamdeck

    The game Half-Life was one of the first real 3D ego-shooters, and back in the day, it was absolutely mind-blowing.

    Black Mesa is Half-Life, but with way better graphics and some other enhancements like gamepad support.

    It still is an absolute masterpiece, and it remains one of the best games you should have played. It is a one-of-a-kind experience.

    Give it a try ...

  12. Fuck it, I'll fix it myself.

    github.com/IAmTheNerdNextDoor/

    Introducing 'Segfault Cascade'.

    "The worst patcher you've ever seen for patching segfaults that occur when killing Eli and Kleiner in Black Mesa."

    It's on #GitHub and works on #Linux, might work on #Windows.

    Please #Boost this post, it took hours to figure out how to "patch" this.

  14. So, there is this annoying fucking #Bug in #BlackMesa that causes a segfault upon killing Kleiner or Eli on #Windows and #Linux.

    This has been a bug for around 4 years that has went unfixed despite multiple reports.

    Killing an NPC should NOT cause a segfault. Every other NPC is fine, but Kleiner and Eli segfault?

    #CrowbarCollective, please fix.

  15. Reimplemented the #BlackMesa sliding mechanic partially into my #SourceSDK 2013 MP #Game today. Still has a bug to fix regarding gaining speed on the floor through strafe sliding not working, but overall it’s quite accurate to the original. Also, you walk at 320 units per second like in Black Mesa whether you like it or not.

    Not ready to share the idea or plans for this game I’m making just yet but thought I should share this.

  20. Dine' tell Navajo Council 'NO COAL!'

    The Monster has returned, and it is even more grotesque than the one before. Dine' remember forced relocation, the loss of water and medicine plants, and the loss of loved ones. Navajos say 'No!; to Trump and Navajo President Nygren's push for coal.

    By #BrendaNorrell, @bsnorrell.blogspot.com June 1, 2025

    #ForestLake, #NavajoNation -- "Dine' told the #NavajoNationCouncil that the #CoalIndustry has cost them their aquifer water, and their health. Combined with #UraniumMining, they have lost their loved ones to widespread #cancer and #BlackLungDisease killing their people.

    "Dine' remembered #ForcedRelocation and the stripping of the #forest by #PeabodyCoal, during a hearing on Friday. The Navajo Council was told to stand up for #FutureGenerations, or step aside.

    " 'The Navajo Nation has provided coal to the big cities for decades, while the people of #BlackMesa have nothing to show for it," Dine' from Black Mesa told the Council.

    " 'We are supposed to be the Protectors of the Earth.'

    "#LouiseBenally [#KleeBenally's aunt] of Big Mountain told the hearing that you can't trust what #Trump is telling you because he'll change whatever he says in the next sentence. Louise said he has no concept of what being a human is.

    " 'Keep your prayers and your language, those are the things that really matter for us #IndigenousPeople,' said Louise. She and her family spent their lives resisting forced relocation brought by Peabody Coal's mining on Black Mesa.

    " 'Everyone was opposed to another #CoalMining, it's not good for anything, and it is causing #GreenhouseGases to continue to rise,' Louise told Censored News.

    " 'Doctor Nygren doesn't know that. He needs a hogan level of education.'

    "On Friday, May 30, 2025, the Office of the Speaker held a public hearing on coal at the Forest Lake Chapter House in Forest Lake (Tsiiyi’ Be’ak’id), Arizona. This open forum allowed participants to share their input and comments regarding the Federal Executive Order 14241, “Reinvigorating America’s Beautiful Clean Coal Industry,” aimed at amending federal policies to boost the #CoalIndustry. This public hearing came after community opposition and frustration to Navajo Nation President #BuuNygren ’s support of President #Trump’s executive orders to prop up coal. The public hearing generated over 50 public comments, more than 169 people in attendance.

    "Tó Nizhóní Ání executive director #NicoleHorseherder was one of the first to provide comments in opposition of coal siting the decades-long impacts on the land and water. “The bottom line is coal mining has had adverse impacts to the aquifers and that’s Navajo water. What is Navajo going to do about it?' said Nicole as she provided a brief overview of the coal mining and reclamation issues at the #KayentaMine.

    "The federal agencies responsible for overseeing reclamation and cleanup acknowledged, verbally, that their duties are to the shallow #aquifers impacted by coal but mentioned the deep aquifers are the responsibility of the Department of Interior. These are just one of many issues impacting the #BlackMesa region, which played host to the coal industry for over 50 years."

    #NavajoNation Targeted Again for Sacrifice Zone: '#Energy Companies Preying on the People'

    #Diné ask: Why is the Navajo Nation allowing energy companies to prey on communities and individuals?

    By Brenda Norrell, Censored News, May 23, 2024

    "Dine' on the Navajo Nation are now targeted with a push to revitalize dirty coal energy, and a hydropower project that would pump precious water from their aquifer. Dine' question why the Navajo Nation government is allowing energy companies to prey on the communities and individuals.

    "#LouiseBenally of #BigMountain [#KleeBenally's aunt] said the bottom line is greed. 'They want to eat up everything but, don't know that even their lives depend on it too. Poisoning the natural cycle will come back and destroy them too.'

    "The new stampede of parasitic energy companies to the Navajo Nation comes at the same time that #radioactive #uranium trucks, covered only with tarps, are traveling across the Navajo Nation, from the #GrandCanyon uranium mine to the mill in the #WhiteMesaUte community in Utah.

    "At the same time, more than 500 #UraniumMines, and scattered radioactive debris, remain on the Navajo Nation, and was never cleaned up by the U.S. government. Dirty coal mines and power plants left the legacy of death and #ForcedRelocation.

    Navajo Council Plans Meeting on Revitalizing Coal Industry

    "Citing #Trump's push for new #CoalMining, the #NavajoNationCouncil plans to hold a public hearing on
    revitalizing the coal industry.

    "The Navajo Nation Council announced the public hearing, stating that on April 8 President Donald Trump issued an Executive Order entitled, 'Reinvigorating America’s #BeautifulCleanCoal Industry
    and Amending Executive Order 14241' aimed at reversing past federal policies, to boost the coal industry and to strengthen the country’s national energy security, according to the White House.

    "The public hearing is scheduled in Forest Lake Chapter on Friday, May 30. Louise Benally and her family spent their lives battling #PeabodyCoal and resisting forced relocation at Big Mountain on #BlackMesa. She said what Trump is doing is another chapter in the assault on the land and people.

    " 'Pl 93-531 is a law created by #BarryGoldwater to target our rights to water and land base to be taken away. He developed that law so, with what Trump is trying to do is no different.'

    " 'They want to eat up everything but, don't know that even their lives depend on it too. Poisoning the natural cycle will come back and destroy them too.'

    " 'The American political system is not our government as traditional people which is where all our modern day problems come from in the form of an endless greed to keep eating up the earth and the natural resources.'

    "Louise questioned Navajo Nation President #BuuNygren's support of Trump and coal mining in Washington, and Nygren's agreement for uranium trucks to cross the Navajo Nation. 'The Navajo Nation government is at a crossroads. Buu has been taken by Trump, and the people he is supposed to be responsible for are in question.'

    " 'He has been taken into the bag of greed -- uranium and coal yet, there is no water. We want accountability.' "

    90% off - Or about $1.99 USD - Can't recommend enough, if you've ever wanted to play Half Life, this is IMO the way to play the first game. It basically remasters and remakes the game, taking what worked and polishing, and fixing what didn't.

    #gamedeals #gaming #HalfLife #steam #steamdeck #BlackMesa

  37. ICYAI Black Mesa Definitive Edition, the fanmade Half Life remake that very justifiably earned a commercial release approval by Valve, is currently 90% off on Steam, which makes it around 1,95€, until the 19th of May.
