This is something worth repeating! When you do a bad thing as a joke, you're still doing a bad thing!

I strongly recommend running Google searches through udm14.com, which sidesteps the machine learning garbage they've saddled their searches with

I set up stuff I want to sell for testing, and now I’m having second thoughts about letting this TurboCD/TV combo go, because it looks so good here in the kitchen. Maybe EVERY room needs a tiny TV/console setup??

I'm 2 and a half years into owning this M1 MacBook Pro, and the only reason it doesn't always demonstrate the same level of performance and battery efficiency as on day one is because I started throwing 4K video production at it a few months back. Incredible machine.

The latest Segaiden will probably go overlooked because of the long weekend holiday/funeral for democracy, but it shouldn't. Fantasy Zone: The Maze turned out to be another great Master System surprise: An excellent game with secret SG-1000 roots!

Also, there's Parlour Games.

Nintendo gave you an opportunity to date a celebrity with Nakayama Miho no Tokimeki High School and made a game whose influence is still felt today.

This was supposed to go live yesterday, but Patreon's janky backend didn't publish when it was scheduled too. Neat! Anyway, I'm done chronicling the PV-1000 console now. It was an interesting diversion, but I'm happy to be moving along to other tasks in the future: www.patreon.com/posts/june-b...
