[Silly Thought Exercise] What over-the-top absurd person would you choose to replace Biden who you think could actually body Trump, and why?
  • Taylor Swift. Not that I think she's absurd. I just think she'd have absolutely zero time for Trump's bullshit, and would probably write some very cutting lyrics about it.

  • Shortest license agreement ever.
  • You wouldn't believe the amount of legal ink that has been spilled trying to work out what the fuck the Do What The Fuck You Want To licence actually means, legally.

  • Favorite Sega Saturn games and accessories?
  • The Panzer Dragoon series. Just such a unique and compelling world and aesthetic, and Panzer Dragoon Saga remains one of the best RPGs ever made, even if the visuals have aged badly in some areas.

  • What Atari system do you like the most?
  • I'm one of those people who actually rather liked the Jaguar controller. I have massive hands and it was actually pretty ergonomic for me.

  • What are your favorite third party controllers?
  • Agreed. The 2.4Ghz version of the M30 and the Neo Geo CD pad in particular are excellent.

  • Are Americans more prone to conspiracy theories than people in other countries?
  • Nah. There are just a lot of them, and most of them have access to the Internet.

  • If you could play one game for the first time all over again, what would it be?
  • I think this is a tie between Bloodborne and Panzer Dragoon Saga. Absolute masterpieces, both. I replay both of them at least once a year, but it would be wonderful to go back in fresh.

  • Looking for some Google Workspace alternatives
  • It involves spending money, but I wonder whether a Synology NAS might suit you rather well? Synology Drive, Synology Photos et al make a pretty respectable replacement for the Googles.

  • Soldering Iron options
  • I use a TS100 USB-powered iron. It's fine for the relatively light soldering jobs I generally do.

  • My ISP has taken total control of my network
  • By comparison, I live in a small town in rural south east England. I could choose from any one of at least 12 different ISPs, all of whom offer gigabit fibre. And we're relatively backward compared to mainland Europe.

  • My ISP has taken total control of my network
  • Good grief. How depressing.

  • My ISP has taken total control of my network
  • Never ceases to amaze me just how awful US ISPs are. Why do they get to behave like this? Are they local monopolies or something?

  • Anybody else love Soul Reaver 2?
  • Ah! That would be that then.

  • Anybody else love Soul Reaver 2?
  • I remember it being very, very pretty. Think I played it a bit on PSX, but a whole bunch more on Dreamcast.

  • 8BitDo Reveals New NEOGEO Wireless Controller
  • Holy crapola, I need this.

  • 1Password vs BitWarden
  • I've been using (and paying for) Bitwarden for a few years now. There are slicker solutions but it does the job for me and I don't really see any need to change.

  • Favourite RSS reader?
  • Small shout for FreshRSS.
