Next up: Skyrim. “Hey, you. You’re finally awake.”

GeForce 256 on my first Windows computer when I went to college. Before that, I was using motherboard graphics on a series of Macs growing up.

Such an upgrade over the previous two. Three whole cities to explore, plus the countryside. They managed to stream the world data from the disc as you moved about, so no more loading screens between islands like III and VC had. This was the first GTA where you could swim, so water was no longer a death trap, and the first to introduce skills, so you could swim further and faster as you got better.

Interesting use of terms. In Discworld Dwarven society, being lowborn would be a good thing and while being high born is only one step below surface dweller. The dwarves are ruled by the Low King (or Queen). The lower you are, the deeper you are in the mine, and the more rich and important you must be.

The lines for the two controller ports are duplicated on the NES’s expansion port, so this device is able to send inputs into the NES as if it were a real set of controllers. I’d call it a neat hack, but it doesn’t require any hardware modification to the system other than removing the expansion port cover, so it feels much too clean to call a hack.

It fits, English and JavaScript are both three languages in a trench coat.

Is that DJ GabeN dropping beats on the Deck’s screen?

No one’s said pineapple yet? Hawaiian is a staple pizza variety.

It didn’t matter what the question was, Trump kept turning it back to immigration. He’s only got one talking point, and it’s based on fear of the other.

The 90’s Star Wars arcade game would be nice, but it’d require a licensing deal with Disney, so it’s probably never going to happen as a Yakuza minigame.

Have you tried Mini Airways? There’s a free demo on Steam.

This thread reminds me I need to get over to Funspot. They’ve got a great collection of classic arcade and pinball machines. Web site claimed 600 games, but some of that is newer stuff, or mechanical games like Skiball and Wack-a-mole, which aren’t video games. Probably 300 vintage units, though. Haven’t made a pilgrimage this calendar year, though, so it doesn’t count.

There’s always good old Discord, you just need WiFi.

Barbecue sauce

I don’t think it’s going to happen that way. Body cams are needed if you want to record people working in the field, such as police officers, but for people working at a fixed location, an office or factory or what have you, CCTV cameras are cheaper, less intrusive, and harder for a bad actor to screw with by “accidentally” covering their lens or forgetting to turn their unit on.

All we Americans get is the logo in the Special Star Road.

How do they get 40 years? The first Ninja Turtles game was released on the NES on May 12, 1989. That’s only 35 years by my reckoning.

I am so sad this was Kevin Conroy’s final time voicing Batman. The man deserved to go out on a high note.

8bitdo is having an 11th anniversary sale right now, too.

Setting the release schedule around vacations and holidays. Sounds like the devs have a respectable work / life balance.
