I have Gigabit fiber at home. I have a suspicion it’s faster than reading from a DVD. (I have an external hard drive via USB that is a frequent bottleneck on downloads already.) So that saved download time isn’t even a thing for an increasing number of people...

So they finally figured out how to manage a port worse than the version for the Saturn.

I’m waiting for the eventual winner to post a casual pic of themselves playing Nintendo Powerfest ‘94 on this via a Sony PVM on /r/retrogaming. With a bed made of money.

selling a single-volume version of LotR with several chapters in the middle randomly ripped out.

These are mostly great, but Guile Duck is objectively best duck.

If not for having a bug that made the game literally impossible, Impossible Mission would have been one of the actually good games for the 7800.

As with all things on the 7800, its 320 resolutions were weird and half-fake.

Same thing that happened to the KGB when the Soviet Union dissolved.

We need a better word for racist, because lumping Lovecraft in with your racist uncle just doesn’t do justice to the magnitude of his racism.

Dude was a 1930's edgelord alt-right kind of guy. “I’m not racist because it’s science.”

I’ve always found the disconnect between him viewing non-WASPs as being distinctly inhuman and literally beastly, then making the entire foundation of his horror writings the fact that even the greatest triumphs of the White Man are less than insignificant before the true nature of the universe interesting.

“It’s so cool that they’re bringing in Palpatine’s boss(?) after never mentioning him in any movies. So neat that he was just off-screen the entire time!”

Failed to mention that Kylo’s training involves learning to suck the (life)force from people like a vampire. Which he then uses to kill the guy who taught it to him.

Street Fighter II was basically “Stereotype Fighter ‘91.”

Wii U sounds like a proclamation of frustration Mr. Poopy Butthole would make.

The Acer SB220Q supports FreeSync, and that’s a 21.5" 1080p monitor for only $89.99. And it doesn’t suck.

Did you already win 2020? Dammit.

The more debates he threatens to show up for, the less likely he is to show up for a single one.

When I get shit-faced, blackout levels of drunk apparently I cry that I’ll never be as good a dad as my own father and that I wonder if he’d be proud of me. I guess it’s a natural step from that to stabbing folks?

My dad had several medical events while driving in the last years of his life that he managed to hide from everybody. When I’d see him his car would have new dents and dings that he’d be unable (or unwilling) to explain.
