New ride? Is that what she's calling him?

Lol. Where do you see yourself in five years?

In the mountains, at high altitude.

of which 2,966 items are priced at least twice as much as they're honestly worth?

Seriously. Common boxed Apple II games are not worth $100+

link? or you mean all the things that come up on a search for apple II?

Searched "Apple II" all categories. As of now it's 2866.

It's not a big-ass bulk lot or anything like that.

Wow, amazing that lots like this still come up from time to time.

Look at his other auctions . He has ones with Jungle Hunt and Galaxian

Wow, Atari really did make lots of extra copies of those Apple ][ Atarisoft games, didn't they?!

I'd imagine someone might try to sell them off piecemeal, but I can't imagine it would be worth the effort.

Does it have HDR? High Dynamic Range is the most important aspect of a 4K TV. We have a non-HDR 4k set -- an LG 55". I think it was $500 on sale.

DOn't believe so. I don't think HDR made down that low just yet. Another couple of months.

HDR is overrated.

I have that link and others on these pages:

Interesting. Seems mostly tied to mobile gaming and mmorpgs. Another good reason to retro game!

I went with 6700HQ

Why HQ?

I like concerts, but it's really hard to stand for 3 hours. Kills my back. That said, I still love live music.

Local ampitheatre has cover bands -- Beatles, Eagles, Chicago. They probably sound better than the original bands, since they're 30 years younger. Plus admission is only $8 and not a bad seat in the place. You can sit down and watch.

Maybe the Who or the Rolling Groans?

Haha, or Nibiru!

You're lucky to get snow instead of ice. Neighbor's pine tree branches broke off all over the place.

We've had that happen before... ice gets so heavy, it literally sheers large branches right off the tree, leaving major bald spots. :-(

But wiping it clean keeps Benghazi away.

How load and save programs, how to transfer stuff around, popular and useful utilities, resources on the web and how to use them, recommended hardware configurations, how to fix specific problems. How to clean them. cables and necessary hookups. Discussion of legacy and modern displays and i/o options.. Probably more.. FAQ highligts and discussions. Modern tools on the PC and how they interact with classic computers and how they can be useful.

A lot of this us veterans already know. But noobs? They're bouncing off the walls while we cringe and see 100 times better ways of doing things.

Sounds good to me! I think it would be fun to teach that stuff! I'd gladly cover a lot of that in my own university computer science classes, if I could justify doing so.

BillyHW: The problem with being someone who cares about the details is there need to be enough of you to get a manufacturer's attention.

I think the new HDR displays do a good job of having enough contrast for Asteroids' blooming effects.

The bigger problem with manufacturers is getting them to spend the necessary R&D money, and the stocking the necessary parts, spending time to change the software. That's a LOT of work.

I'm pretty much over YouTube in general -- especially the talking head "hot takes." SIGH

I still go there for scientific lectures and science news in general. Stuff you won't get on public radio.

Classic!

Did you just say ColecoVision!? Uh oh, here comes a flock of sue-gulls.

Jess LOL

A hoarder hoarder would hoard as many hoarders as a hoarder hoarder could.

.. hoard hoarders

yeah, but a herder hoarder hoarder is harder.....

I bought this up because that black hole photo came out of 5+ Petabytes of data. They transported nearly 2000 pounds of hard drives via jet cross-country.

@x=usr(1536) I head the original phrase used tape cartridges instead of hard drives. I suppose whatever storage device is popular in your time period will work. And the statement will hold true.

Never underestimate the band width of 5 fat guys who play rock and roll.

I think you should start by unplugging it. However, removing it from your head will probably require professional help.

When I photon hits a brick wall, what happens to it? When a photon hits a black hole, what happens to it?

So how do we know photons even exist?

And how is there an end to the universe?

sounds like xmas

Something like that. Whenever there's "VCS" around, good things happen. Real hardware or virtual hardware & emulation. It's all fine!

Just don't shoot your eye out!

Luckily she can use her horn to alert everyone to moooove.

OMG! I missed the MOOmentum part the first time haha...*not joking* Somehow it's really funny seeing it a second time and seeing I'd missed the pun. Udderly Hilarious. LOL!

I live in Wisconsin, what you say is not a joke here, it's a fact of life.
