The ease of access has made my two girls love the series, but neither have learnt to miss the scenery because they don’t get penalised by the game. Their driving skills haven’t improved much due to the same reason. In our family “To do a Forza” means crashing into scenery.

Don't let anyone talk you out of spending $15 on a new hobby.  That $50 will be the best $400 you ever spent.

This is not wrong.

I have a soft spot for console Doom, especially the PlayStation and GBA versions. A FX2 version would have been cool. Now I’ve seen people get theirs I kinda want it.

It’s only took me 5+ months to try the SD2IEC+ & Fastload from TFW8B but It is sweet. Great to see the SD download image pretty much encompasses pretty every product they sell regardless of platform, it includes games/demos/apps too. First time playing C64 Chuckie Egg, a little easy but decent.

I couldn’t be bothered to setup the crt, but was fine on the Retroscaler 2x and Oled Alienware monitor.

I play this so infrequently but it scratches an itch of me playing it back in the day. Such fun.

Looks like a SNES and an Atari ST decided to make a Donkey Kong game. Looks fun.

I used them two weeks ago in Palma airport and it was fine (UK passport), the issue is how it scales with greater passenger numbers. I think on first time use, they were taking additional data like finger prints, and copying data to EU data centres, this should be mitigated for regular travellers.

My issue with the word “AI” is it encompasses LLM’s along with other more reliable forms like machine learning. LLM’s are trained on good and garbage data, are coded to output something rather than nothing if it doesn’t get a tangible result, and coded to please the user rather than be neutral.

The young now use “AI” as a alternative word for fake. The people who I know love AI, trust it’s accurate and don’t check its output like they should, and squirt sensitive data in with zero thoughts. I’m sided with the Yoof.

Life shouldn't be a competition, it should be a community activity.

The people who treat it as a competition are the ones terrified of being picked off in old age by the young, like they did to their elders, that's why they burn the bridges and fight to take away people's rights and healthcare.

I had the 650mhz SlotA Athlon after upgrading from my PII300/450. The 1Ghz was a little out of my range at the time. I still have fond memories of the slot processor era. The speed increases alongside the GPU improvements were a dynamic time for gaming/computing.

You’re a Vic20 dev, we’d let you off even if you was the MS CEO.

I’d run W2000 beta back in the day, jumped through hoops to get my MCSE, pushed out AD everywhere, sold edu licenses to all my schools but they lost me at co-pilot, W11 and 365.

I moved across to a M1 MacBook ages ago to support the iPads in schools, once I realised it had a 16 hour battery life and I could do 97% of my job on it I won’t go back. I’m getting a M4 MacBook next week and handing the M1 to one of my engineers. 25+ years of MS but no longer on my mobile device.

My first leave since the end of December. I’m not lying when I say these were smashed in the Majorcan sun, after a 11km coastal walk.

They drive me nuts, I make sure all my schools are licensed and they don’t even send me keys anymore. Then I get grilled why I need MAK and KMS keys for a school with 200+ PCs and Servers.

It will turn out Authenticator is on one of their phones back on earth 🌍 or it’s complaining that it cannot find a valid license.

Blimey that sounds like my Romanian rescue. Scared of everything, hates files and protects our house laid down in bed, woofing.
