A new year a renewed #introduction
I am Dude, associated with the movie but there the comparison ends.
An updated #Introduction for 2025:
I’m a dad, #cat whisperer, #computer nerd, occasional #gamer, and #movie lover. I’m a #quality minded #professional and I make my own #homebrew beer. #freebsd. Enthousiast I love #fitness #walking #programming in #python and #3Dprinting. Busy with #homeassistant and more.
Ik spreek voornamelijk Nederlands, Engels een beetje Duits.
If you attach Sonic 2 to the Sonic & Knuckles lock-on this unlocks "Knuckles the Echidna in Sonic the Hedgehog 2", wherein the player can play the game using Knuckles and his abilities. 
Using these special moves, Knuckles can explore areas inaccessible with Sonic or Tails, where secrets such as extra monitors have been added.

This will be a thread about Sonic & Knuckles for Sega Mega Drive/Genesis and its cartridge's Lock On feature.
There is much to say about the game's background and the possibilities of the Lock On feature in regard to other games, especially the console's Sonic titles.

Instead of an #introduction post, I'm just going to put a whole bunch of tags in here:
Always wanted to play this but could never find it in the arcades. Mine stopped at 2 and had the other pedal game that let you go full auto with a riot shield. Need to keep this in my sites, right next to Time Crisis 4 on PS3 and DJ Hero. #gamer #gaming #videogames #vidyagames #retrogaming #mastodongaming
For #CIBSunday I thought I’d showcase games that fit my mood for 2025. Not exactly cyberpunk but definitely future dystopian. Got it free digitally on PS3 but wanted it physically. Not enough gunplay for my taste but cool concept just the same. #gamer #gaming #videogames #vidyagames #mastodongaming

mookie's #introduction / #reintroduction
it's me, hi. i'm the mookie, it's me.
i'm a serial #fediverse instance creator (and destroyer) and have been doing this since 2018. many will already be familiar with my name or my avatar.
i'm the father of two awesome kids. i love watching and talking about #movies. i'm a #gamer. i eat to #run. i'm a giant #starwars and #startrek nerd. i'm a born and raised #engineer.
my home is at https://ultramookie.com where i should be spending more time writing.
I've played so many games that in case i'd see a human corpse in real life, my natural instinct would be to loot it.
