Final Fantasy IV, completely worth it and I still have it. My parents were mad that it was $40 used.

I didn’t sell many games back, but for some reason, I sold that same game store Mega Man V for Game Boy complete-in-box, probably for a pittance.

…but where am I supposed to find another cart in this 50 million dollar hospital?

Old news… If you are using a VPN, it’s “foreign communications” and subject to spying; and if you aren’t using a VPN, they route the data through a room that’s considered a foreign enclave (like an embassy), turning it into “foreign communications” and subject to spying.

Fuck that tabloid, the Daily Mail… but there was the guy who was attempting to mod his robovac so he could control it with a PlayStation controller. The AI he was using to help ended up giving him keys that let him remotely access thousands of robovacs, including their cameras and mics.

Dark Ritual into Hypnotic Specter will win more games, probably at the cost of friendships. You can Animate Dead their best creatures they randomly discard. 💀

I know Le Tigre but did not know that. Thanks!

Well, it is from Urza’s Saga originally, so that follows. It’s a 1/1 for three mana, that’s its drawback. Compare to one of the original game’s cards, Royal Assassin.

Yeah, they don’t bring their stuff around for help anymore. They’re probably afraid I’ll wipe it and install Debian. 🤣 It’s been a long time; I’m an Arch fiend by now.

I was asked by a friend of the family why I had to “mod” everything, “You make it all so it doesn’t work right!”

…because “working right” in this day and age is a privacy nightmare, a security disaster, and relinquishing your rights, duh! Then I asked her how much the lawyer cost to understand what she’s agreeing to in all the EULAs of services she’s signed up for just to make things “work right”.

Makes sense. Let’s say you are standing with a tower directly in front of you. If you want to look at the top of the tower, you would tilt head back and step back to get a less acute angle. If you want to look at the base, you would step forward.

GOD WILL _LIARS JUDGE YOU!

0.5.20 looked to have many features added but broke multiple games on multiple machines here. 0.5.21 existed but was quickly replaced with 22?

It didn’t tell me Lutris was going to break. Now I see they have their third point-release in less than a week!

Sato is a cat-shaped rare Mag in Phantasy Star Online, and now I remember its name was an homage.

RIP, legend.

Fuck Logitech, too.

When very drunk, I’ve seen the flicker of normally-functioning fluorescent lights and was theorizing whether my “nervous system was desynchronizing” or if it was nystagmus-related, or if there was even a difference between those two.

One can still shutdown, but it requires going into the spooky, scary terminal.

Reverse piracy; “Design and store your copyrightable and patentable ideas in our AI incubators!”

But is it Mike-eel or Mickey-all?

These already exist. I’ve also seen some that technically work but have pop-ups complaining about being offline.
