I have one of the Power Frame Units from when I was a kid (Slide 7). Here is the main unit (motor) with an AA battery for scale. It also came with railroad tracks, and I remember the inner and outer radius rails for curves had different textures on top; one smooth and the other toothed.
I echo that. I prefer watching movies on my 120" screen with my old Sony vpl-hw45e 1080p projector even though I have 3 4k tvs of various sizes in the house. It is partly the size, but it is also the ambiance. Movies were made to be watched in a darkened theater where you can give it your full attention. For… Read more
This is a legitimate question - I promise I’m not trolling. Read more
Do these offer any level of transparency? I’ve been looking for something in-between my Shokz Airs and passive noise reduction for running outside. Read more
Apologies if this was answered elsewhere (and potentially excuse my ignorance), but I assume original Game Boy cartridges relied on an internal battery to preserve saved games, and I also assume these batteries have long since been depleted. What does this mean for playing original carts using the Pocket and saving… Read more

As good a reason as any to leave behind one of my favourite videos of all-time:
This is pretty amazing. I compiled all the animations of my grandpa and grandma who died long before I was born. Color me impressed:
Hey Andrew,
No. Apple TV 4K remote is absolute shit. Literally. Read more
I know it’s anti their new design language but I much prefer the 3rd gen remote. Easy to find because it’s not a tiny black slab and doesn’t have the sensitivity issues of the new one. I do prefer the current gen version for scrolling long lists but I just think it’s the overly designed and not that functional in… Read more
I have lost count of the number of times that I’ve fumbled around in the dark, grabbed my Apple TV remote, hit the Play/Pause button in the lower left hand corner of the remote, and accidentally exited the show I was watching because I was holding the remote upside down. It happens 2 or 3 times/day. Read more
Yeah, I agree with you. I don’t like the remote. Fast-forwarding is annoying on it. Read more
