I had a 7800 with custom bios and ram cart and would play a kaboom hack that started at max difficulty and ramped from there
a lot of early 2000s 2600 homebrews would probably make my list but Thrust+ is the GOAT

I recently got into the apple ecosystem and am loving it.
I know this is a linux community and apple is literally the devil but I haven’t had a bad experience with it yet.
I think I destroyed a USB stick back in the day doing this shit. be careful they don’t lock the stick and if they do make sure you use the program to wipe the stick ASAP before you forget what program you used to make it.
I have a ventoy stick for this exact reason, just copy iso to stick, no need to burn a new one every time.
Depends where it is.
3rd party reviews? Those should be removed. Company website? Knowing they use DHL is very useful to set expectations low.
entirely reasonable for a customer to be upset with poor customer service
my main PC hosts nothing, everything else is always on
sometimes I remember I’m self hosting things
Sorry the Vader doesn’t do it for me.
Give me a 6 switch wood grain any day.
Vimeo is explicitly not competing with youtube
my scsi controller needs to be entered during boot to manage raid. it also has an external battery that needed replacing (which cost more new than just buying a new card … with the exact same battery) so if you’re not in verbose boot mode figure that out and see if the controller is telling you which function key it needs.
figuring out this old stuff is most of the fun in running it, I would sell it as scrap before actually hosting anything on it.
I have a HP Proliant DL380G7, basically the last server with a front side bus, and all the comments about it where about power per watt.
and they’re not wrong.
I just don’t think this is the community for old servers like this, self hosting is very much a practical consideration and the money spent on electricity running anything useful on these old things is better spent on a raspberry pi or stand alone NAS or something.
I use Wayland instead
if you’re running a single instance of a game it’s already there. (I multibox so fuck me I guess)
if you’re waiting for native support it’s a chicken and egg scenario, your best bet is to switch asap and show developers there’s a market.
they don’t bother me
probably because they would have to back down of pretending they require specific hardware I’m not going to buy.
so I can read full colour comics on an e-ink e-reader then?
I have a few 2015 laptops, the last time the apple logo lights up like it damn well should, (and their operating systems are still getting updates almost a decade later) ipods and an iphone 6 I’ve fixed, apple TV because it was cheap enough. all told I’m in it for less than the cost of a new macbook and apple hasn’t got a cent yet. I have an imac from 2008 I found on the side of the road that actually needs linux but a computer of that vintage in 2008 would be a paperweight at best, the fact it’s still useful as a computer at all is astonishing to me.
