  • Other than the form factor, why is this needed? There are tons of cheap linux handhelds that play these games. And if you like the form factor, there have been C64 and ZX emulators for the Nintendo DS for ages. Emulators that are old enough to drive at this point. I mean, if the price point was closer to $40, I could see it. $60 would be pushing it.

    Plus, it tics one of my pet peeves of having a 16:9 screen for a specifically 4:3 media.


  • Yeah, pretty much. Mechanical engineer, but on the tooling side of things and not production. When shit hits the fan, it’s typically during office hours. Honestly, I haven’t even charged my work phone in probably 6 months because it’s so rare anybody needs me when I’m not at my computer.

    But my personal phone is always on silent, too. Not even vibrate. To the irritation of my wife.
