It’s hard to overstate the effect that Daytona USA had when it landed like a dinosaur killing meteorite in arcades in 1993. Its liquid smooth textured graphics, powered by hardware known as Model 2, set a new standard for video game visuals, but what you might not realise is that, eventually, Sega shared that technology with other companies.

So in 1996 we got the lesser known Super GT 24h made by Jaleco on the same hardware foundation.

Once limited to policing the nation’s boundaries, the Border Patrol has built a surveillance system stretching into the country’s interior that can monitor ordinary Americans’ daily actions and connections for anomalies instead of simply targeting wanted suspects. Started about a decade ago to fight illegal border-related activities and the trafficking of both drugs and people, it has expanded over the past five years.

It's time to revisit the battery damaged Apple Lisa from a couple weeks ago. I had a chance to test a couple of my boards in a working Lisa so I could rule out potential issues with these two boards.

Heyho, recently asked for the silliest reasons, but as someone who has suggested linux to many people, I often encounter people having valid reasons for staying with Windows or switching back.

The most boring but valid one is "I have to use Windows for work. It is a requirement (of some software I have to use)". But there are also other answers that fit. My sister for example tried Linux, but while installing software constantly encountered issues that I helped her solve and eventually switched back because she felt like she had less control than over windows. While I am aware that this is fundamentally wrong, it is valid that some amateur users do not want to invest enough time to get over the initial hurdles of relearning how to install software.

What are the best reasons people have given you for not wanting to try Linux?
