I’ve got a 2016 dual-core MacBook Pro to replace and while I was all in on going with a Mac Mini now I’m just kinda wondering if this wouldn’t suffice.

If you haven’t tried Linux yet, there’s never been a better time.
Some motherfucker in the Trump administration is eyeballing this and thinking “shit, I can make some money off of this one.”
Our boy woke me up out of a dead sleep on the couch mid-vomit last night. Kinda glad in a way, as I was able to clean it up immediately.
Unfortunately their mats are way too fucking big for my desk but if I were able to, I’d be getting a Katamari or Stray-themed mat from FanGamer: www.fangamer.com/collections/...

“Metroid Prime 5: Can We Get a Do-Over?”
Holy shit that was NEW stock of the Xbox One X? Had it not sold out I probably would have bought one.
Ah…guess I’m passing on this then.
Sure, I’ll get in on that.
I live for disparate box art across regions, especially in the mid-to-late 90s.
North American publishers were terrified of the anime aesthetic for so, so long.
Kirby’s Adventure
I was in my junior year of high school when this dropped and it felt like a real event, like manga finally “made it” in the US.
Artwork you can hear.

You could have told me Newt Gingrich passed away from COVID in 2021 and I would have believed you.
This is despite having married a librarian, somehow.
