"Is that another Borg time sphere?"

"Captain, I believe the borg may be attempting to alter the past - to prevent themselves from ever encountering Dr. Cochran's music."

Seems optimistic.

I spent my movie going money on a RAM stick to share with my neighbor.

These things are tragically under-advertized, and tend to be a pretty solid deal just for the built in games (for fans of that publisher, of course).

In my opinion, they don't emphasize enough that this thing also plays the entire Evercade line of cartridges, too.

Everybody please go buy these, so that my local game shops might start stocking Evercade carts for easier impulse buys. Okay? Thanks.

And also writing the some of the best Marvel Comics titles, now!

Will Riker is. Thomas is the original.

There's not an ounce of Cyan in Riker's body, but this thing still refuses to materialize without a new cartridge!

That happened to my great-great-grandson. I'm not sure if he ever found his way back.

That is a great games list! That is who is who of great Atari games.

My Super Pocket is my favorite way to play my Evercade carts.

Even though I already have one, this is still tempting.

I was going to push back on your point here, but then I couldn't think of a game that makes a good counterpoint.

Before they enshitified all the sports games, I would have pushed back a bit and comparer running Windows for a specific game to emulating an Atari for nostalgia.

But actually, the last good version of many of those sports games probably runs in Wine now anyway.

One pushback - there's still community on some of those very shitty games. I understand people not wanting to leave their gamer group behind.

Of course, my gamer group all moved to SteamDeck.

Ouch!

The good news is you'll get invited to Cobol/AS400/Mainframe conventions if eventually you're the only ones left on Windows.

Those folks have similar challenges, but are great to party with after a day of conference talks.

It's a network issue.

It's not always a network issue!

EditIt was a network issue.

Installed some wall hooks (startrek.website)

I updated the closet under my stairs again today.

It's too small to be terribly useful, and my house is old enough to need frequent repairs.

So the under stairs closet is for tool storage.

Today I added wall hooks to keep my tool bags off the floor.

I'm trying to convince myself this will magically make me turn the corner and keep this closet responsibly organized. I'm failing.

But not having to bend down too far to pick up my tool bag should be nice.
