Yep, knew it as soon as I saw the name, but I clicked the link for the American Gladiator Hamster ball

Like 20 years ago some pizza chain gave out a very cheap but very well made local multiplayer game similar to Mario Party for Xbox (like, maybe legit just Xbox, the very first one)

Everything was janky, but in a consistently janky way.

So if you picked it up for the first time, it didn’t make sense. Especially because it was just a hodgepodge of random minigames with the only consistent thing what color your avatar was. But it didn’t take long to learn the game logic, and the games were fun and had replay value. The most memorable thing is they put you in those hamster balls from American Gladiators, and that’s what was in the disc label.

I’d be really surprised if there was a ROM of it today, or if anyone even remembers it. But for like the year they were giving them out, everyone had it.

Have you tried turning it off and on again?

You have zero idea what happened apparently…

I just wish he’d have gotten into politics.

But I cant blame him after the hit job Al Franken got for being a progressive outsider.

Do they always?

I think when they kept jumping between that one woman and her daughter it got real blurry on what time it was.

But I also have a bad habit of listening to TV more than watching it so it’s entirely possible I was just missing them.

The show was/is great, but I hate when shows jump between periods in time without making it clear. Just throw the date down at the bottom of the show, especially when half the characters don’t show signs of aging over that long for various reasons and technology is stagnant

All that said, the TV show is doing an amazing job of filling in Asimov’s writing defincies. His character work was always shit, but I’m invested in the people from the show.

What?

I remember this game, and this wasn’t anything compared to the time I rented Battletoads for a weekend.

That game taught kids failure

Honestly, servers are about the only use for HDDs these days.

It’s better to have huge files on a HDD than small ones on an SSD. So get a SSD for operating system and programs. Then a large HDD for media.

You don’t need anything fancy, and you don’t need to deal with multiple drives.

Nah.

People outside of tech maybe and that’s because non-tech media treat venture capitalists like they want to be treated. Which is that they’re “tech geniuses”.

Really they’re just the money that pays workers and take all the credit for their oversized egos.

If he’d have stuck to buying startups like lottery tickets and kept his mouth shut, 100 years from now people would talk about like how Edison gets talked about to school kids today: no problems mentioned and gets credit for everything

Think of all the shitty historical figures that are celebrated today because a century later no one remembers what they were actually like

You set up a table for each.

If you’re adding one thing that needs a color value, you just add a color to each table rather than a single color…

It’s honestly not complicated or time consuming. Especially when two versions already exist…

If “X” can’t handle a light mode and a dark mode, then that’s not a very good sign…

You’re acting like they need to code a whole new app rather than a single if/then statements with different color values.

Do you have any idea what you’re talking about?

For some it’s just personal preference, for some with vision issues it’s unreadable

What’s the benefit to removing one and forcing everyone to use the other?
