It makes sense that Bilbo would run a homeserver.

Just do what I do and consistently forget to set up DDNS and also be bad at noticing when your ISP juggles your IP address.

Wasn’t he constantly being hospitalized due to overwork?

Oh I read it as the singular, as in “a real developer’s ___”

Only older ones at this point, I hear.

It’s privately owned but okay

Van Gogh died penniless, right? He’d probably be cheering. “Oh no, rich people will be slightly less able to profit off of my work?”

I just got a Dreamcast as a gift and I am super excited about it.
There was also a successful Kickstarter for a modern-day tech drop-in replacement for the VMU (the memory card with a screen and buttons that some games would load minigames onto, similar to tamagotchis and Pokéwalkers).
People are still regularly releasing games for the Game Boy and the Commodore 64 and I welcome new games for the lot of them.
Lots of cool hardware tech that flopped or got dropped, and they’re fun and interesting to revisit.

Cool sidenote: the Dreamcast controllers had two slots. I wonder if they had cool interactions, like the MSX, the SuFami Turbo, and the relatively more modern but more distantly related Metal Gear Solid where Psycho Mantis comments on what other games you’ve been playing based on the saves on your memory card.

Sorry. They put the whole bin out in a yard sale for five bucks (I talked them down to 2).

But the Wavebird came out after the original GameCube controller so it seems like a regression. I imagine there was some legitimate reason for it, like the battery was already dying too fast.

Extra points if you edit it so that the letters alternate between bold and not.
Edit: it’s beautiful

Did the wavebird really not have rumble? Huh.

Switch modes, when I’m having trouble it’s usually on X when it should be D or vice versa

No, I’m agreeing with you.

Load from the Side. Sideload. It’s always meant that to me.

Sideload, to me, means pushing it onto the phone and installing it from a second, local device. Loaded from the side. Easy enough to do if you have the tools.

Downloading an APK through a browser and installing it from a file browser, all from the single device itself, wouldn’t count as sideloading given my personal definition of the term.

…does…
…does b-boy stand for basketboy

Step one: use Dendrite instead.
Step two: come back and help me set up my Dendrite instance, it’s definitely not easier.

Super Famicom yeah, I thought that too, but the screen border is definitely from the DMG

That looks so good, I’m always surprised by what people can squeeze out of old hardware

Ooh, thank you.
