Arvind regularly makes it clear in meetings that he doesn’t give a flying flip what the employees think or feel and that he knows best. So this is not shocking. He’s made similar bootlicker comments before. I’m sort of surprised more of his terrible takes aren’t made public.

I played the hell out of this game. The sensation of speed was addicting.

Used them since the company started but stopped this year due to the cost going up. Never had an issue.

I use the Switzerland server if it or another site does this.

From my experience arcade ports and titles released for both are usually noticeably better on the Master System in both looks and sound. Rampage is one example. It also has less issues with the cartridge port. One caveat is the controller ports are prone to bent pins. Otherwise NES all the way.

Smaller subreddits usually supported by a few power users are dying off. I remember it taking me a couple hours to read through the top posts at end of day. Now you’re lucky to see a week’s worth of genuine top posts.

Posts getting roasted in the comments for being too boomery, capitalist bootlicking or hive-mindish happens less and less.

I bought a keyboard kit recently and to my horror discovered all the “documentation” to build it is on Discord. The creator’s last message was that he was working on other things after losing interest, and was not monitoring it anymore. So all the channels are full of messages asking where he is, what the status is, is he coming back, etc. I had to scroll back through dozens of pages just to find the docs.

Maybe put up a wiki on GitHub or something? Especially if you don’t want to run a forum or plan on dipping. It’s not that hard.

Some of my favorite platformers from the 16-bit era: RangerX, Dynamite Headdy, Rocket Knight Adventures, Vector Man, Gunstar Heroes, Metal Slug.

The snes controller was fine as it was but the regular Genesis controller was incredibly balky. So the turbo was a step up until I got the 6-button. Definitely took a lot of time to get used to.

This is probably my favorite controller ever. Vendors today still copy it. The d-pad is perfect for fighters.

The Turbo Touch was ahead of its time. Had one for my Genesis. No more blisters.

I remember the adverts. They were pretty funny.

One of the few things I use Siri for is set timers when cooking. I have a very basic iWatch and it’s just a fumble fest for my clumsy ass trying to do anything with my giant hands. So I yell at it instead. Works oddly well. But yeah, would be nice if it wasn’t so clunky and obviously this isn’t always feasible in a loud kitchen.

Played the crap out of this game and the original with my neighbor as a kid. The co-op made them stupidly fun.

Because the people that flock to these platforms first are usually technically adept nerds and free thinkers.
