Do we? Who’s we?

Have a look at what came before Symbian : Psion series 5

In the end, when the Series 5 finally shipped, it was like being transported into the future, only through a very murky tunnel.

Gretton’s hardware clocked in at a meagre-sounding 18Mhz — but performed like a desktop Intel PC from just two years previously — and it could still maintain 30 hours use on two AA batteries. Once the circuitry was complete, the Series 5 performed the same tasks as its Windows CE rivals but used only a quarter of the power.

I still have two working Psion 5MX palmtops and love them to death.

I thought long hair was a requisite for metal, especially headbanging.

I was very happy with The Print Shop. You could print huge signs and banners by stitching smaller pages together. Fun times.

It’s not a new phenomena, but it seems to be growing.

I remember when perfectly functional scanners and printers were ditched because the new Windows version would not support them and the vendor would not provide OEM drivers either.

Nowadays they unplug some servers and you are left with an expensive doorstop. That’s progress, I guess.

It perfectly describes their contribution to this reality. Thank you.

Depending on the aquifer the water temperature at the spring can be really cold, even in the warmest days.

You never actually drank from a natural spring, have you?

To me it is the inverse of socializing. It’s an escape to a world where I don’t have to deal with people.

Faraway 1, 2 and 3.

Really chill first person puzzle game.

There was the Homebrew Channel back then, but it seemed to have gone offline. I assumed people just lost interest and moved on.

Based on what you said I did a quick search and found that there’s still an active community around the console, so thank you!

I’m updating my Homebrew Browser to see what’s new.

Any platform that restricts how and what I can run in it has inherently less value to me. This is why I mostrly avoided consoles all my life.

The only console I bought was the original Wii. The games were extremely expensive, and they disabled all the services that made the console useful after a few years (weather channel, news channel, store).

Fortunately I added a few SNES, PCEngine, Genesis/Megadrive and Gamecube emulators otherwise I would now have a very pretty white doorstop.

You probably need them just to deal with the stress induced by teenagers.

I really admire teachers, in my country they don’t make much money and are subject to be placed hundreds of km away from their families for years.

That may be the reason. I play the GoG version on Linux and it’s great.

I have never encountered the bugs you describe. Maybe you got a bad version?

This is one of the games that I always keep installed. Just chilling, gliding around, trying to climb higher and higher. Love it.

I jumped to Tidal many years ago because Spotify could not be bothered to provide high quality output. Yes, you can ear the difference, even on shitty gear.

For the stuff I could not get on either platform I started buying CDs on Discogs and ripping them to FLAC.

Edit: ear, not eat.

Sorry, I don’t have VR gear.

I’m sorry to disagree. I’ve been using Microsoft crap since the days where you had to free up memory in config.sys to load Novell Netware drivers, and never has Microsoft been the cool kid in town. It was always the fat bastard bully kid that would beat and extort the other kids.

Oh, you Americans and your silly made-up units.
