A guy who kept a bunch of rare Game Boy games in his attic found the plastic was all destroyed. I was going to switch to plastic totes for storing cartridges instead of cardboard boxes, but now I'm thinking no...

I am getting a free Encyclopedia Brittanica full set (15th ed, 1991 pub plus yearbooks) tomorrow.  Excited to have these on my bookshelf and become a learned scholar. 

Did you know only the rooster gets the best piece of chicken!

I keep getting timed out on this site.  It says my browser is fine and that there is a host error.  All other sites I visited worked just fine.

is it out of the question for me to ask for help when developing for retro hardware? I'm not the type that likes to code for long hours. Perhaps i could give a layout and others do the programming?

Just curious

I have been testing out this app for managing my retro game collections.  Unfortunately, as I use a de-Googled device, I am only able to freely use a single console (Atari 2600.)  It has some short-comings, like no provision for label variations, but otherwise seems pretty good.

Do you use something like this?  If so, what do you use?

At the art dealer I learned that people into Baroque were out of Monet.

Why does Google Translate leave numbers 1, 2, 3, 7, 8 as digits when translating from Japanese to English, but write out Four and Five when the original source also gave those as digits?

One benefit of this whole last year or so is that I no longer feel the need to get / pay for haircuts!  I've really improved around the "cutting my own hair" arena.  
I mean, my hair cutting skill hasn't improved at all.. 
But my acceptance of my own bad haircuts has really improved quite a bit!!!!

Archaeologists have discovered the first ever what they are calling motion video/graphics. It dates from ancient Greece and is sort of like the Antikythera Mechanism. It is a complex geared device with a space for these sort of key like things that are separate from the device itself. The device is connected to a large abacus like thing with hundreds of beads connected to the device via levers. They put one of the key things into the device (fit precisely) and cranked it, and the abacus thing showed an animal running. This is the first storage media we know of. One of the other key cylinders produced a graphic of a well endowed woman with obvious breasts bouncing up and down. This is being called potentially the first ever porn movie in existence. Most baffling is the phrase "Please be kind, Rewind" that is written in ancient Greek on each of the cylinders.

What's the better console?

XEGS or 7800?

This morning, Firefox was updated to the latest UI. So far today, I've mistakenly clicked on "close tab" 5-6 times when I intended to open a new tab instead, because there no longer is a visible + and the X looks like one.

I always get nervous when an ebay seller doesn't leave feedback for the buyer. It's almost like they're not confident in their product and waiting to see what feedback they receive from the buyer... I hope my friggen item is what i wanted and in working order. Too much money to be stuffed around.

finished my taxes, absolutely tiny refunds from both state and fed, mission accomplished, I minimized the excess income withheld in taxes.

The holidays flew by this year.  Or rather the last part of last year and the first day of this year.

I feel so utterly disconnected from modern pop culture.  I don't really watch current TV, Movies, watch sports or listen to current music.  People are talking about the Mandalorian online and i'm just like "huh?" 

Enduro is the best racing game ever made for any system. There. I said it. 

Up yours, Photobucket. You and your "pay us to allow 3rd party pictures" is utter bull. What's a better picture/video uploading website?
