This is my fun social media account, I will post a lot of video game stuff (mostly old or cloud gaming) and some work stuff.
If I post an image with no Alt text it is because the image is just there for decoration and doesn't provide any extra meaning to the toot.

@davedarko If rich is a net worth of let's say over $2,000,000 yeah probably. Even if you don't know they are rich.
1) Halo Infinite
2) Atomic Heart. I will play it after I finish Hogwarts.
@SirTapTap OK :) I was about to mention that emulation can ve very good too, but now that I know you don't like messing with retroarch I won't :D hehe
@SirTapTap for most systems if there is an official Everdrive go for that. https://krikzz.com is the official site.
Be careful though. There are many clones, Krikzz is a very small company and it’s nice for them to get the profits from their hard work rather than the cloners.
For 2600 specifically there is the Uno Cartridge by The Brew Academy. This cartridge is really good! https://thebrewingacademy.com/products/uno-2600-cartridge

Please, please, stop using "foo" and "bar” in code documentation. Give us real examples that mean something. Not "if (foo > bar)," but “if (height > limit)." Not “foo++” but “counter++”. Give us a logical hook to hang our hat on, not nonsense words.
@jonn_blanchard trends come and go. Retro gaming was huge for a few years, which new clone consoles being released seemingly every month. But that's gone now, fashions change and people are more interested in the old computers.
@wiredfire I got used to iPhone with work phones, the SE brought me to Apple with my own devices. Whilst I will spend £1500 easily on a laptop or PC there's no way I am spending similar money on a tiny pocket computer that's mostly used for calls and messages. NO WAY!
The super nice cameras are good though, much smaller than my DSLR and have amazing picture quality. I guess that would be the only way of justifying the massive price.
This was tough, and I may change my opinion, but today I feel like this is a good list:
#2600 - Basketball
#NES - Duck Tales
#MasterSystem - Sonic
#SNES - Street Fighter II
#MegaDrive - Bare Knuckle III
#PSX - Gran Turismo II
#Saturn - Panzer Dragoon Saga
#N64 - Mario 64
#Xbox - Halo CE
#GBA - Minish Cap
#Wii - Endless Ocean
#Switch - Super Mario Odyssey
#XboxSeries - Halo Infinite
I've ommited systems where I couldn't easily make a call... Sorry PS2, Game Cube, and DS....

#GIMP 2.10.34 Released with More Features Backported from the Upcoming GIMP 3.0 Release https://9to5linux.com/gimp-2-10-34-released-with-more-features-backported-from-the-upcoming-gimp-3-0
@darth it is interesting to see that as videogame distribution has gone to the cloud the gap between countries has increased. Way back when if a console wasn't officially distributed in a country you'd generally be able to buy it easily via an importer. But nowadays with online services, cloud distribution, and cloud gaming things got harder.
I want to see more #Chomebooks that are able to run #Proton and games in a performant fashion. I want to see more powerful GPUs and CPUs becoming normal on Chromebooks for both #gaming and intensive #Linux tasks. #Chromebook #GamingOnLinux
@wiredfire as an SE user I agree. Killing the SE would take me away from Apple at upgrade time.
