Not sure if it is considered particularly obscure, but mine would be Rock n’ Roll Racing on SNES. The game was like an improved RC Pro Am from the NES with vehicular combat and a great metal/rock soundtrack (hence the name).

It clearly takes a lot of work to hack the planet :)

To be even more leet, check out the included screensaver “Gibson”. You can hack the Gibson to find the garbage file like a one of the true Hackers ™.

Thanks!

Excellent post, but the quoted text is especially great. I don’t know if you came up with that or saw it elsewhere, but I think it so succinctly describes some people’s behavior that I’ll be borrowing that phrase going forward.

I’d also like to know what model tablet OP is using, or what anyone else has been having success with.

Asus makes a slim 8x external DVD burner that rips CDs very well in Linux, comes with usb-c and usb-a (double connectors.)

That’s a great way to describe the show. I can’t believe so many people desire to go back and watch it. Fun fact, I only know what was missing because my little brother bought me the original collection for Xmas when it came out, but he forgot to give it to me until the following Xmas so that he could watch them all.

The official release was missing all or most of the music video segments, which constituted a large part of the show. They also tended to be the most entertaining part IMO.

This is a tough one, because to me “ricing” or “riced out” carries additional negative undertones (racism aside). I have always heard it used in a way implying that it was referencing enhancements done in a cheap or gaudy/classless way. Think of the most Razer-like LED adorned gaming PC setup, that could have easily been described as being “riced up”.

I think the phrase “decked out” works OK, and seems to also lack the negative connotation, which may or not be in line with the goal here.

Also, seeing your example ideas you shot down, I am not sure you full understand “souping up” phrase. The term “souped up” has been in use for over a century and I still hear people use it pretty frequently. It is generally meant to imply something has been made faster or more powerful, frequently with cars, and probably why some people argue it is a shortened version of supercharged. I agree that it probably isn’t a good fit here, but not being of how it sounds.

I can confirm that Can Can Wonderland is pretty great and seems to be doing well every time I’ve been there.

You’d certainly know if you did. As a kid whose many-times-stupid parent actually washed their mouth out with soap for cursing, I know for a fact that it tastes like soap to me.

It makes total sense as all the right leaning people already hated Biden, and he disillusioned many on the left. Trump never lost support of his mouth frothing racist morons.

Oh god, that leveling system is abysmal isn’t it?

I found that to be successful I had to primarily focus my main skills in silly shit I could easily level.

All hail the master of jumping and unarmed combat, defeater of dremora lords!

In my experience Wow! is less scummy that Comcast, but also less reliable. Overall it is probably a wash.

$300 isn’t too bad of a price for a 47" 4K where they aren’t getting extra money from your data and ads. I went for the 1080p model because at the distance we sit at it was impossible to tell the difference based on the 4K Roku TV is replaced.

Question: Are we being thrown in to the game as one of the other existing characters?

If so, then it really matter which character.

If I am Linus I try to get a shave and maybe a checkup at a free clinic. It’s a long road ahead.

If I am Abigail, I play some Chrono Trigger and do some sword practice.

If I am the Mayor, I GET MY GOD DAMNED UNDERWEAR BACK! :)

The only consistent think about Skype is the way it continues to break in new unfun ways.

You mean it doesn’t have any of this yet :)

I say this as someone with two LG TVs. Sure you can just not connect them to the internet, but a lot of people rely on the “Smart” part of the TV to view all their content.

I got their 1080p 43" “dumb” model for $150 not too long ago. I wouldn’t choose it for my main living room TV, but it is perfectly fine for what I needed it for and they can’t retroactively make it worse like the Roku tv it replaced.
