  1. There are 14 SNES cores in Retroarch but no Apple or proper Amiga one. Disappointing :/

      Not about complexity or keyboards. Apple, Amiga and other more obscure ones are running fine on Retropie. This is why I just don't get it.

      @carlsson: I'm a City/Arsenal fan and stopped watching early this year. If I saw this I'd have a heart attack. It really is ruining football.

  3. You know you have been playing too much Fallout when you see a garbage can in public and you wonder if there is something good in it

      Glad I'm not the only one who likes to hoard burnt books and rusted tin cans. Seriously though, making all this stuff useful was one of the groundbreaking things about FO4

  4. OK I'm getting freakin pissed at Firefox! It seems to have disabled my adblocker, Webroot (filtering extensions), and Yahoo Homepage (though it still works) claiming they "Could not be verified for use".

      a) FIREFOX IS EVIL !!!11!

  8. For Years eBay said PayPal PayPal PayPal!! Tonight, I go to buy something and it's This seller isn't set up for PayPal, use a credit card or G Pay whatever the #^#% that is. Nope! Went elsewhere.

      I guess the other crap is even worse, but Paypal gets no love from me either, what with their rates, fees and data scrapping. I recently switched to Transferwise for transfers, you can also pay for some stuff if you get the borderless account and a card.

  9. Anyone posting Avengers: Endgame spoilers will be sent pipe bombs full of sloppy horse poo. Don't be a shit and you won't be picking it out of your teeth.

  10. Another Rob Zombie movie forthcoming about the Firefly family (House of 1,000 Corpses, Devil's Rejects).. Uh.. thanks?

  12. It's almost ironic, the nicer the display the worse the VCS looks.

    1. youxia

      youxia

      VCS and other early consoles are not so bad on LCD because their gfx looks more like blocks than pixels. But anything later on, you really, really ought to use at least OSSC or shaders, if not CRT.

      It's ok. You're far too intelligent to ride this "it's only ads" excuse forever. You'll come around one day, I believe in you :P

  16. I'm listening to old time radio. It's amazing how many commercials are outright lies. For example, Camel cigarettes are less irritating to your nose and throat. Drinking Pepsi helps with digestion problems.

  18. Reptoline from google is supposed to speed Windows 10 back up. To me it sounds like lube juice for my Gecko!

  19. I was watching a 3 Stooges episode from the 1940's -- one of the later ones. They are hitchhiking alongside a nice modern concrete road, and a 1940's Buick or Oldsmobile splatters water from a puddle onto them. Curly says "modern people these days are so rude. I long for the old days!" People from all eras long for the "old days" -- the theoretically better old days. Swap the 1940's car for a new Toyota Camry, and it'd be the same situation today. And the...

      The flipside of this phenomena is the "everything is so much better now" angle - equally mythical.

      Every time a company latches on a tragedy to gain free publicity it's a PR stunt and disgusting by default. Otherwise they could've just donated the money anonymously. In this case it is indeed offset by several mitigating factors, but I said as much at the beginning.
