I'm a tech that's interested in 8 and 16 bit retro and neo-retro computers 🖥️ and retro-gaming 🎮. I dabble in electronics. I program in Java , C/C++ and Z80 and 6502 assembly.

I love dogs 🐕

I'm interested in world news and US politics.
The UK uses mail in voting and has almost zero fraud.

1994 was the best year:

Friends & The X Files aired

PlayStation and Sega Saturn were released

Commodore was bought with intent to continue production

SGI Indy Indigo 2 Extreme were released

Apple moved to PowerPC

The Shawshank Redemption and Pulp Ficiton released

Netscape Navigator came out

I am, but on and off. Not because I'm bored of the tech, I've just been having housing renovations this year and it's been very distracting.

The only thing I can infer is that there's an objection to the metal source, but I don't know if the objection is because it's from an aggressor or defender - and what perspective for each, or if it's just due to that fact it's from instruments of war.

Or if it's because it's emulation or cost.

I have no idea who they are - can anyone fill me in on the controversy please!?

I can think of two:

"Morality Needs No Priest"

Or

"Jesus was a socialist"

So I'm posting my theory, just on the off chance I answered the all the big questions, while having had one too many Jack Daniels 😂

AI then told me my theory answers most of the current open questions in physics and proved it to me using math.

Further confession: one of my most favourite Final Fantasy memories is playing Final Fantasy Legend II on the original GameBoy, and that's not even a real Final Fantasy game, it's a SaGa game.

Oh please do! There was a guy on Twitter that posted a photo of a stack of them...

...and he threw them away! I'd love a full set to relive my youth. I'm going to try install them on the 486DX4-100 I'm building.

Yes, physical media. All the ISO's are available in one place or another, but you can't beat a stack of CD's :-P

In situations like this, I've head people buy new machines, then return their broken ones saying it didn't work when arrived.

Of course, I'd never do that. It would be immoral to deprive a billion-dollar corporation that pays their staff less than a living wage of a sale 😜
