I'd rejoice, but I'll believe it when I see it happening consistently. I want smaller, denser, and richer worlds. Not giant, sprawling, and barren. It doesn't add anything to a game for me if I have to walk or drive 10 minutes to get to my next location and it's just empty in between.

I want to understand this as well. It's the same type of people that are susceptible to other types of scams I think. Like thinking you're dating a celebrity and you're the only person they can turn to for financial help. So I sent my retirement funds to Pamela Anderson. We'll move in together soon, she promised a bunch of times. She just needs a little more money and she'll pay it all back plus the investments she's been doing for me. So I guess people that want to believe so badly that there's a super easy way to get unlimited money that all critical thinking just gets tossed out.

I have left some older systems on for extended periods a few times because I was either somewhere I couldn't save and didn't want to lose a bunch of progress, or games that didn't have save capabilities and I had to stop playing for some reason. Other than that, they always were and still do get turned off.

I watched his video doing a walkthrough of the damage yesterday. It's really sad. Not just his collection of all this stuff that he is so passionate about, but his whole house. So much damage caused by nature. I hope he's able to get things back to semi-normal soon.

I'm ready to find out what real money is. This fake money is too hard to get.

That's a really good point. Software emulation is fine for most people, but Analogue stuff is going to be as close to the original as possible plus having all those modern things that we expect now. I haven't emulated N64 stuff very much so maybe there's more complications than I was thinking.

I believe it's probably slightly more for a used N64 in good condition, but your point is valid. I actually bought an Analogue Pocket. It's a quality product, no question about it. I guess the appeal for that one for me is that you can get adapter to play whatever handheld cartridges in one system and the screen is way better quality than the original systems. An N64 though, I'm not as certain. These typically have an SD card slot so that you can run roms on them, but if you just want an emulation machine, there are far more cost effective options. I'd probably argue that the N64 model makes the least sense because the console was pretty reliable and didn't have the read issues like the standard front loader NES.

I don't believe Silent Hill 1 has endings based on number of saves or anything like that. It's about items found and actions taken. So I wouldn't worry about it. It's not a particularly long game if you end up with a bad ending on your first playthrough. I know Silent Hill 2 has endings that are affected by like when you heal and maybe how you fight in the game.

Is the Sovcit movement founded on grifting? That's something that is been thinking about recently. Because there are websites that sell fake plates and different things that these people buy. I've seen some videos where people are on the phone with advisors during traffic stops. Is this actually a business at this point?

In my experience, it's a lot of music that I already know I like. I don't feel like I get much given to me that I wasn't already aware of. With Pandora, you create stations that are based off of a specific band or song. If you are listening to a Rage Against the Machine station, you're going to definitely hear Rage Against the Machine and then stuff that is similar. What I do is put it on shuffle for a group of selected stations and that gives me what I want.

I'm in the 23% on the American side of the chart that uses Pandora. I don't see any reason to switch. I've been working on it knowing my preferences for like 20 years now.

Now I really want to start a business selling this stuff. I wonder if there are disclaimers on the site just in case someone tries to sue for it not working. Or are these people so convinced that it's all on the government that sueing someone selling this stuff wouldn't cross their minds?
