I have only managed to convince ONE person to watch Neon Genesis Evangelion, tragically, because it’s my favorite tv show of all time.

I feel like it’s hit-or-miss. A lot of people will zipper merge, but a lot of other people don’t care and mess things up.

I really don’t have a place or space to display them, so they sit in a bin on a small shelf w/ my other retro game stuff. I’ve never minded the lack of spine labels since I’ve always had them in bins, haha. There’s even some hidden gems on the platform!

Nintendo 64 games.
It was the first game console I really played much of growing up. I’d go to my dads on the weekends and he had it there, so it was this magical time, playing Ocarina of Time and Mario Kart 64. I’ve collected nearly all the games I grew up with, as well as some I never played as a kid. I like having it, knowing that at any time I can play them, in their original forms on hardware. Emulation is great but playing on hardware just hits different.

I know it’s maybe not a great replacement for everyone, but this crap is why I stopped using YouTube and just use Peertube now.

Kde defaults to a windows style layout, but it’s very configurable by design. You can freely add and customize panels with different widgets. Kde has different design philosophies than Gnome. Even with a similar dock + menu bar layout, features vary or are handled differently.

Sure. But eventually is better than now. Because as long as it isn’t in a landfill, and it’s not broken, it can still be experienced. Honestly, even when I’m not using my Nintendo 64 games, I like just looking at them.

If collecting brings you joy, do it. It keeps retro hardware out of the landfills.
