You’ll pry my RS-232 and PS/2 ports from my cold dead hands!

Linux 2.6 released in December 2003. Gnome 2.6 released in March of 2004. At that point Linux was truly ready for the desktop and we’ve just spent the last twenty years waiting for the rest of the world to catch up.

Yes, but Windows is normal and therefore all of its myriad problems are just part-and-parcel with using a computer and can be ignored. Linux is not normal, though, so the slightest roadbump is an instant deal-breaker.

So WipEout, then?

It’s a feature.

There were three Game Boy Castlevanias.

Where is it? I don’t see anything.

honorable mention goes to the Daewoo CPG-120 which I only just learned about today. it’s a consolized MSX2 that looks like a cross between the Enterprise and a Roomba. i can’t decide if it looks magnificent or awful and it’s arguably not a console to begin with but hey

Dude, spoilers.

Probably a sequel to Virtua Fighter Kids. Or maybe to that visual novel on the Game Gear.

It’ll probably be 2025, when adoption hits 5% a few months before Windows 10 support ends. The 5% will make people take Linux more seriously when looking for alternatives to Windows 10, which will increase adoption even more, which will cause hardware and software providers to offer better Linux support, which will just cause the whole thing to snowball.

You maniacs!

Do you like fight scenes on moving cars?

Finally we can put all the controversy around systemd to rest.

ed is the standard text editor.

Looks neat. I’m curious about how they’re going to handle the Mode 7 effects later on in the game.

Chris Genius is a madman.

Mastodon has RSS built-in. Just add “.rss” to the URL to get the RSS feed.

I’m curious about what they’re going to do with Angel of Darkness. From what I understand (haven’t actually played it) that game was a buggy mess on PS2. The remaster might be a chance to bring it closer to the original intent.

Yeah, I wanted some old-man-with-a-banjo action and ended up with a space shooter.

In A.D. 1984
Toaplan was beginning.
