I have a room dedicated to these dark arts.
@PodunkPotato @ApocalyptoLatte1488 @ShowMeYourLibrary I used to have a stack of blank cdrs on my desk
I loved burning CD’s!!!

@koropokkur @ApocalyptoLatte1488 @PodunkPotato @ShowMeYourLibrary a usb drive that fits in your pocket today holds way more information than cdrs did they're obsolete mediums now.
That's why I've got blu-ray rw capacity...
@koropokkur @ApocalyptoLatte1488 @PodunkPotato @ShowMeYourLibrary although it was fun when everyone had a giant album book full of cds to have car music and drive around
But can I pay Dragon's Layer or Space Ace on a usb drive?
i love giving out cds and dvds of music and anime.
thumb drive doesnt have the same flavor.

Actually LaserDisc if I recall.
also, i dont give away too many usb drives
@Humpleupagus @mancat19 @ApocalyptoLatte1488 @PodunkPotato @ShowMeYourLibrary @koropokkur Love LaserDisc anybody that countersignals it is a israeli DVD shill
Never pick up a used USB you found on the street.
lol... rando usb left in the school puter lab is foolin no one.
@PodunkPotato @ApocalyptoLatte1488 @ShowMeYourLibrary @koropokkur just plug it in. it's probably not malware at all. just raw dog your computer.
What if it has a piece of tape attached with anime written on it?
such a good medium when thy first started making em.
the lasers were really good quality and could read thru any surface scratches that did happen. until bluray, the lasers and cd quality were so poor a lightly scratched cd was unreadable.

@koropokkur @Humpleupagus @mancat19 @ApocalyptoLatte1488 @PodunkPotato @ShowMeYourLibrary metal layer oxidation (disc rot) kinda killed that and other mediums ngl
Bring back magnetic tapes.
My 486dx2/66 had a tape drive.
@Humpleupagus @mancat19 @ApocalyptoLatte1488 @PodunkPotato @ShowMeYourLibrary @koropokkur One of the biggest local radio stations still runs off a 486 btw. Had to do a recovery there like 10 years ago. Crazy, the software works as the day it was distributed complete with the HD radio shit (track titles, station names, etc)
I thought I was such hot shit back then. I still remember the night I installed the Windows Chicago Beta (win95 test release). I was like... you other fuckers are living in the stone age. Then I played doom just like before I installed it.
yeah space ace and dragons layer were both laserdisc games. i love don bluth's style. he even kept that style in titan ae
@koropokkur @Humpleupagus @mancat19 @ApocalyptoLatte1488 @PodunkPotato @ShowMeYourLibrary I just want to roll out this take: 3do was great. Full motion video games was a great idea, a cool gimmick and I wish it stuck around. The astronomical licensing fees for 3do and the like 2500$ in today's money price tag (it was like 799 back in the 90s iirc) killed it. I was in awe at that console, man

you could daisy chain the controllers too which was something unheard of, even today

i never played on one.
i was playing pc games from mid 90s until 2010.
ps3 was the first console i bought and i got it for streaming and the bluray player but broke down and bought a few games.

speaking of panasonic, do you member that gamecube colab they did? that one was stupid expensive as well.
@koropokkur @Humpleupagus @ApocalyptoLatte1488 @PodunkPotato @ShowMeYourLibrary @graf SNES is the earliest game system I've played aside from arcade/pinball type machines
@koropokkur @ApocalyptoLatte1488 @Humpleupagus @PodunkPotato @ShowMeYourLibrary @graf well ok I guess what counts as technology on second thought because everyone's played blackjack and that's older "game technology" than SNES
@mancat19 @Humpleupagus @ApocalyptoLatte1488 @PodunkPotato @ShowMeYourLibrary @koropokkur I had Commodore 128/Atari 2600 -> NES -> SNES -> N64 and then IBM's Canadian Discount BrandTM Ambra desktop with a Cyrix mediaGX 133mhz processor in it. First time I ever played Fallout I was 12 years old (I think mid 1998, my brother downloaded it from a BBS)
My first computer was an at&t 8088. It had a 10mb hdd.
@Humpleupagus @mancat19 @ApocalyptoLatte1488 @PodunkPotato @ShowMeYourLibrary @koropokkur My brother got a TRS-80 I was super jealous of. My parents bought the Commodore because it came with like 3000 floppies of games, software all kinds of shit. Used to play the FUCK out of California Games
Commodore 64 that you could hook up to a tv with external floppy drive or tape drive, and available modem that went a whole 300 BAUD! WOW!
My first computer. 1983.

@graf @Humpleupagus @ApocalyptoLatte1488 @PodunkPotato @ShowMeYourLibrary @koropokkur I don't have any better "cal" files than this
You're up past your bedtime, grandpa. Did you sneak past the night nurse to get back to the PC?
@Hoss @Humpleupagus @mancat19 @ApocalyptoLatte1488 @PodunkPotato @ShowMeYourLibrary @koropokkur Now that you mention it, it's always talking about his "long hair" and his "amazonian wife" and he's always dealing in something shady as fuck, are we sure its not this guy?
Beamrider. 🤌
@graf @Humpleupagus @mancat19 @ApocalyptoLatte1488 @PodunkPotato @ShowMeYourLibrary @koropokkur Nigga stole my bike
Skunkle: Kazoogie Spluffer >Nero rises
Me too! Smells of onions and garlic!
Still have them, but for all the movies I bought over the years.
I was JUST about to post something Titan A.E. after seeing this gif. Strong Cale vibes
Also, didn't realize LEGO movie stole from Titan AE 😏

@koropokkur @Humpleupagus @mancat19 @ApocalyptoLatte1488 @PodunkPotato @ShowMeYourLibrary @graf yes you can actually, the emulator is called Daphne and the ROMs include the video track ripped from the laserdisc encoded as MPEG-2 video
younger cousin only knows the burn of the std!
