    I used to donate blood, but sadly a medication I take prevents me from doing so anymore. One time I even donated two units since they were particularly low on that type. You have my respect.
    I also help do compatibility testing for an emulator, though life has kept me from doing that recently.



  • Jak & Daxter: The Precursor Legacy for the PS2 had a roughly 1.5’ x 2’ fold out poster that had a map of the playable world with small bits of lore. It even had a short message from your uncle telling you good luck on your journey. The other side had an image of Jak & Daxter on the A-grav zoomer. This was way back in 2001.
    I remember as a kid pulling it out and reading it so many times that the corner folds started to wear out.

    Similarly, Ratchet & Clank also had a poster with all the weapons & gadgets you’d use with small bits of info for each item. The reverse side also had R&C, however I can’t remember if Ratchet was just holding the Devastator or if they were on a grind rail.
    I miss getting those with the games. It made them so much more special and unique.


  • That’s the other thing, too. It’s rare to be in a situation where you could inhale it. The only example I can think, which is also a rare situation, is if a vehicle that uses it is involved in some kind of accident and breaks the piece of carbon fiber. That could release it into the air causing you to breathe it in.
