Good shout. Been at least a decade since I tried emulating Dreamcast. Just need to make sure I buy a USB adapter for the controller, for the complete experience.
I grew up playing the 3D version of Centipede on the Sega Dreamcast. The game was a fundamental part of my childhood.
For whatever reason, I've never spoken to even a single other person who has ever played it (aside from my brother).
The level design was crazy. Tons of replayability, a low barrier to entry, but so difficult in the later worlds I never got close to finishing it. Soundtrack and sound effects I never got tired of hearing. Yet, no one seems to have heard of it.
One thing that they are confirmed to do is when someone you interact with a lot searches for something, that person may be interpreted as a family member and results from their searches may show up in your ads. Devious af.
I'm planning on getting the iPhone 15, now that they're switching to USB C. My last iPhone was an iPhone 4.
To be honest, some of the cultish gimmicks have swayed me. The "in group" mentality of having the right color of text messages. The ability to send videos that aren't garbage quality. The ease of having shared photo albums with people in my family who also have iPhones. I know these are mostly underhanded tactics from Apple to make their product a status symbol, but I've grown tired of being on the outside. Still, I'm keeping my Android as a second line for various reasons.
There are a few hardware components that made me consider spending the money on an iPhone. The biggest one is the Lidar sensor. I don't know of any other phone that gives you the ability to combine Lidar and camera technology to create full color 3D models of your surroundings. I can't wait to 3D print my cat.
Doesn't bother me nearly as much as the ads with annoyingly smug-faced people saying things like, "I make ten thousand dollars a month playing solitaire," because everyone knows playing solitaire while watching ads is super lucrative. I wish there were consequences for people who false advertise to such an astronomical degree, but there never will be.
As someone who watches episodes week to week, no you don't.
