Part of me also wants to never empty another room in this house.

Part of me never wants to attach anything to the wall with screws ever again.

A wall with lots of little spackle marks.

Biggest purchase at the hardware store - adhesive carpet squares. The carpet in the Console Room is pretty much trash, it wasn't new when we moved in 10 years ago.

This is Zebby. He finally managed to catch his tail. Super proud of the accomplishment and would like to pretend no one saw the part right after. 12/10 (IG: zebbythegolden)

The Home Depot website appears to be really poorly optimized for mobile users. Specifically the staggered loading seems to like to add in more results right when I try to click, and thus I wind up on a product page rather than more results.

Yeah, clearly we need to organize it better. So much neat stuff.

LynnInDenver @lynnindenver.bsky.social · 1d

We're at the point that we're definitely seeing the long to-do list preceding reassembly of what we call "The Console Room". Spackle, prime, prime, paint, paint, remove carpet, install carpet.

It's been a while since this one room was anywhere near this empty. The rest of the house is in a bit of a state. Hoping to get some paint up by the weekend.

A mostly empty room, still with some shelves and racing arcade chairs.

Most of these were brought in by @systemreactor.bsky.social, I think you'd need to ask her.

Uh, someone here in Colorado basically DID download a car. I had to sit in it when it was at a 3d printing show because I figured it was my one chance to sit in a Lamborghini.

Yeah, I figured we didn't have them all out for testing. Dug out two more. I know a couple of these have problems.

It wouldn't power with batteries, nor with the wall wart. Literally it would only power with the benchtop power supply clipped to the external battery pack, and then it just went "oop, I died" when I was verifying that oddity.

LynnInDenver @lynnindenver.bsky.social · 3d

Ugh. Turns out that the Atari Lynx we tested yesterday was actually marginal, and now it won't power on by any method. Labeled, in the box of "consoles in need of repair."

With the model that it is, I've already told @systemreactor.bsky.social that I want to pay someone else to repair it.

A classic DANGER warning sign. It has a red oval above against a black background with DANGER inside it in thick white text. Below in bold black text on the remaining white background it states "THIS MACHINE KNOWS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN METAL AND FLESH. IT CHOOSES FLESH."

BUT HEY!

THAT'S JUST A Segway to remind you that the FNAF creator/this movie's screenwriter, Scott Cawthon, donates the money he makes from FNAF stuff to far right politicians, many of whom are currently trying to make things worse for everyone, specifically trans people. Don't support this film.

Show me a game that came out when you were 12:

The ability to play as Godzilla (with the serial numbers file off) was pretty key to the power of this game for me.
