    Bitcoin

    this fraction of a BTC was given to me by someone else last year (who worked at a BTC-related startup). as Levi supposed, i just transferred it out of my account. i haven't done any mining in some years now.

    Children's Books - A non-exhaustive listing of some good ones

    The Keyboard Thread

    this is the $28 ten-keyless mechanical i bought last year (with knock-off Cherry MX Blue switches): i can't say i have any complaints about it, aside from the fact that the keycap paint is kinda cheap feeling, but it hasn't worn off after 10 months of use. good key action, steel front plate...

    AtGames' Sega Genesis Flashback Console - Reviews

    you are likely thinking of the second Atari Flashback, which had the nice joysticks (the first one had the weird Atari 5200-like controllers). another draw of the second Atari Flashback was that it actually was based on the old hardware and was not an 'NES-on-a-chip' emulation. you could even...

    Puberty sucks? Parents suck! About hacking and adolescence...

    my semi-rural grade school had an actual computer lab with Apple ][e machines in the early 80s (this was in Minnesota, where MECC was based, so maybe that had something to do with it? they were also the publishers of, among many other titles, The Oregon Trail) - this was super vital towards...

    Release Atomiks

    i remember this from years back. not only is it tricky-tricky times but *also a time limit? (i'm personally glad to see that many modern games have done away with the concept of the timer altogether)

    Just bought a GP32

    another thing about SMC cards is they are easily corrupted/damaged. please take care when handling this media. i still have my first digital camera (Olympus Camedia c-3040 Zoom) and if i attempt to erase photos with the SMC card in an external reader, it will tend to get messed up and need to be...

    Just got an Atari Lynx

    my Lynx was misplaced some years back. i assume it's in my parents' basement somewhere... annoying. i got it in 1992, i had been wanting it since 1989 (*before it came out, due to pre-release hype in video game magazines). after i finally, at long last, acquired one, i was wondering why the...

    Removable battery - another reason why it's a good thing.

    i have many songs in various digital audio codecs and files, but i still prefer to put an actual CD (or tape, or record) in the player.

    i got mine, but i don't have an A/V TRRS cable that works for it. i got one off eBay that said it was Zune compatible, but it's clearly not, as the Ground is on Sleeve and not on Ring 2. (currently waiting for the eBay seller to make good on this, or requesting refund for 'product not as...

    Games that works like "Batman Arkham"

    those three franchises are all published by WB Games (although different studios for each), but WB hasn't released any more. i would suggest you check out Just Cause 3 (Avalanche Studios, same as Mad Max) - it's not exactly what you're looking for, but you may well enjoy it. also if you have a...
