  • As far as we know, Gordon Freeman’s character traits include.. long, awkward silences and the ability to climb ladders using only your feet. I love Idris Elba, but I think almost anyone could play Gordon.

  • PSP emulation is solid! I just played through Crisis Core on my modded switch at 2x resolution.

  • This brings me back to plugging my PSP into my TV with the big component cable adapter to play that game. This thread is making me so nostalgic.

  • I have so many fond memories of playing my modded PSP. Everything from NES ROMs, to PS1 native emulation or Crisis Core, I even used it as an MP3 player with an aux cable in my car before there were better solutions, or watching Futurama on my breaks at work. Back in the day there was no single device that could do all of this. Even now it’s so comfortable and the buttons feel so great compared to newer handhelds, so I just replaced the battery and started replaying Puzzle Quest.

  • Soo they didn’t get sucked in, they were drawn in and couldn’t resist, and rather than becoming monsters the shape of their bodies was deformed. It really hits Junji Ito’s delicate balance of too silly to be taken seriously, while deeply unsettling at the same time.

  • Of the language models you can run locally, I’ve found them to be awkward to use and not perform too well. If anyone knows of any newer ones that do a better job I’d love to know.

  • Right now I use 1337x and eztv, but it’s not perfect

  • While I think it would have been easier to get into FF7 at the time of release, I did try at that time, and actually never finished it until maybe 6 years ago. I had played 4-6 and subsequently 8 multiple times, but 7 never grabbed me the same way. I know it’s a bit of a “you had to be there at the time” game, but I don’t think being there at the time guarantees enjoying it either.

  • Yep! I use Sonarr and Radarr, connect to their web servers from my phone to get torrents going and they automatically organize the files on my NAS. Then Infuse picks up from the Apple TV and populates meta data.

    It’s a beautiful solution. A couple of taps on my phone in the couch and I’ll have a clean, organized and beautifully presented addition to my library a couple of minutes later.

    I’m still learning this stuff so I have two plans - try Usenet, and also run it all through cloudflare so I can get downloads going while I’m away.

  • That really ruins the fun of hunting down a good deal. I sure miss the days when someone at a flea market had a box of NES games for $3 each, and you could sift through and find stuff you don’t have yet. Those days are long, long gone.
