  1. Just got a Red Dragon keyboard + mouse combo, with a mechanical feel. Not as good as a regular mechanical keyboard, but worlds better than most other standard membrane keyboards.

  2. WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT

      It either has to do with having the most post or the most likes. I'm still not sure.

  3. I can't stand it when people celebrate someone getting banned from here like rjchamp3 when Albert said congrations.   I makes me sad.  I politcal and reglious discussions don't bother me execpt flamewars.    Not much bothers me anyone after all the pain and suffering I have been through my whole life.  I am scared I might get banned someday.  

  4. Is it it me or is AA traffic down quite a bit these past few days?

      It's just you. There are almost 150 users online at the moment, with hundreds of new posts a day occurring in dozens of different subforums. Just because the discussions aren't occurring in the ones you frequent doesn't mean they're not happening.

  5. I wonder if anyone here is fluent/knowledgeable in Ancient Greek? (E. G. Attic, Ionic, Doric/Spartan, Aeolian, Phrygian, and Aegean.)

    1. Sauron

      Sauron

      I'm not, but I would like to be. I just started studying Koine Greek, although I've barely gotten through the alphabet. I imagine it will take me a long time (if ever) to become anywhere near fluent.

  7. After taunting me on the shelf for 25+ years I finally got around to reading 
    "Dune." Very good, but quite a dense read. I suspect I missed a lot the first time around.

      It's one of the best and most influential sci fi novels of all time. It can be a heavy read at times, but it's well worth it. Stop putting it off and get to reading!

  8. Liked "Picard" a lot. Much less ADHD camera movement than in Discovery. And the potential for storylines based on loose ends from STNG looks fantastic!

      Sauron

      It seems better than Discovery so far, but it still reeks of Alex Kurtzman's stank.

  9. Having tacos tonight... but didn't have any sour cream.  I mean, is it even worth it?

    1. Sauron

      Sauron

      Having some good hot sauce should make up for the lack of sour cream.

      Do you need some time on you own? Do you need some time all alone?

  12. This millennial (27) I work with sucks on his vape device all day completely addicted to nicotine. The kid claims he's never smoked a real cigarette in his life.

    1. Sauron

      Sauron

      Vaping is a hell of a lot better than smoking real cigs. I quit smoking real cigs several years ago thanks to a "heat not burn" device.

  13. Well, it looks like I may have time to rejoin my favorite hobby, unfortunately. I no longer have any parents to take care of. Strangely enough, it seemed like a chore at first, and now that I no longer have that responsibility, I miss it, and I feel empty. Hello AtariAge friends. (I know everybody goes through this, but I feel like complete shit)

      Sorry to hear about your loss. But you still have a family here at AA.

      Sauron

      Typical leftists proving that demand for hate crimes heavily outstrips supply, so they have to manufacture it.

  15. I'll say it: Sonic Spinball is the only Sonic game worth playing on the Genesis.

      You know what they say about opinions. And yours stinks worse than mine.

  16. Robert Plant divorced Maureen in 1983 and entered a relationship with her sister Shirley, with whom he had another child in 1991.

    1. Sauron

      Sauron

      His wife is named Maureen, but it's a totally different chick. Otherwise, Plant's got some explaining to do.

  17. Is there any 3D animation software that is affordable at the consumer level anymore? 3D Studio Max and Maya are super pricey these days...

    1. Sauron

      Sauron

      You could always go back to 3DS Max's roots and use Cyber Studio for the Atari ST.

  18. Looking to play through an Ultima game - other than Akalabeth on iOS and 5-10 minutes each of Ultima III & IV, I've never played them. Reocmmendations? I'm inclined to start with an earlier one because it won't be as big a time commitment.

    1. Sauron

      Sauron

      Ultima IV is easily the best starting point, although Ultima VII is probably the easiest to come to grips with.

  19. I got an odd russian Death and Return of Superman for the genesis, early 2000's comic box art, superman returns poster for the cart art, 32x cartridge shell and completely russian text, pretty awesome right?

  20. Atari VCS and Atari SA are unstoppable. Not the community, not the taco thread, can stop it. The pre-orders keep rolling in!

    1. Sauron

      Sauron

      Glad to see the paranoid schizophrenic Atari community hasn't had the least bit of an impact on its momentum. Here's to hoping that Atari can make something of this hardware.

  21. Can we just talk about how ALF is the greatest television show ever made? About how this amazing TV program about an alien visitor made you a better person just by watching it?
