Love these articles so much and I just love learning about all these systems that obsessed me as a child.

IBM also made Microsoft pay for the Xenon in the Xbox 360.

And they had Nintendo paying 'em in that generation (and the one before) too.

Saturn emulation is very solid at this point. But yeah, for a long time it was quite poor.
breadmaster · 2 years ago
Yes, it's really quite good right now, and very accessible under programs like OpenEmu. I have a Saturn hooked up to a CRT still, but the emu doesn't feel very different these days.

I finally saw this a few days ago knowing that there was some controversy but not what it was about. When I googled "TLJ Controversy" the first thing I found was not the controversies, but articles criticizing the people who found the film controversial. Very odd.

Anyway, after finding out that the main concern for fans was the amount of women in the film and the attempts at making Luke Skywalker interesting, I was pretty surprised. Those are some of the better decisions in the film.

The film was fine. It's too bad people are tripping over themselves to hate on the film, other viewers, the cast, etc etc. Just so much mean spiritedness being thrown around in all directions over what was a perfectly enjoyable film.

Internet continues to suck.

I was confused when I saw this. I believe there is a bit of a name conflict with Coda[0] by Panic.

Nevertheless, this Coda looks quite interesting.

Replying for no greater reason than to shill for Panic. Coda is an amazing tool.

I looked up youtube videos on how to fix door screw holes (you use glue and wood chips)

As an aside for anyone else that wants to try this next time they strip a screw hole, I find it easier to cram a bunch of toothpicks in the hole, with wood glue, then snap the toothpicks off flush with the surface.

I use wooden dowels that I get for free from Ikea. Drill a hole large enough in the stripped area or the dowel, use a bit of wood glue and then hammer the dowel in.

It's perfect.

I wonder if there'll ever be another Steve Jobs or RMS. I wonder if we've destroyed all the places where brilliant weirdos can thrive and closed off all the paths to success other than a handful of narrowly prescribed routes. I wonder how many of the greatest minds of our generation are flipping burgers or making coffee.

Probably has a lot to do with the fact that you have 30 years of music queues you can draw from now. Instead of having a 35 piece orchestra score each episode, they can just re-use.

Where can i get the new version of Metal slug?
breadmaster · 9 years ago
There is an official emulated version available on the PS3 PSN store. It was developed by a supremely talented small Japanese company called M2. In the game, they included an option to overclock the CPU and it makes a big difference. My favourite way to play the game.

M2 was also responsible for the 3D Sega classics on 3DS which are incredible.
