I’m a bit confused by your argument. Home computers from Commodore, Coleco, Apple, and Atari all had controller ports and many were compatible with those that came with their console offerings. Coleco even had an Adam add-on for the ColecoVision. That doesn’t even begin to touch on what Sharp was up to in Japan or the MSX line.
Also, you are a bit off in your pricing, and forgetting that PlayStations didn’t include TVs in the box:
I think the part that people miss when they make this argument is that consoles have always been cut down PCs. The NES and the Apple II both used MOS 6502 processors for instance. The main difference is how improved hardware capabilities have lended to software generalization across hardware platforms, which hasn’t been unique to the console market.
How have these things not encountered out-of-service stop lights before? This seems like the kind of thing you test before you let them around people.
Newegg is still a thing, you just need to check the “Sold by Newegg” filter.
I keep my storage hard drive assigned to B so the optical drive is still D.
Caldera had a GUI installer in 1998…
My guess is the cameras use it to make sure the color plates are aligned properly. A lot of packaging printing still uses a 4 step printing with one plate for each color in CMYK.
lol, in this case ‘update’ would require physically replacing the ROM chip on the motherboard. Sometimes they were nice enough to make it a socketed chip.
I have a 486 with a mouse driven BIOS…
Edit: Here is a screenshot I found online that looks like the one I have (note the 1994 copyright at the top):
C is primarily used in embedded programming these days. For instance the RPi Pico has a C/C++ SDK. I would start there.
I agree that it shouldn’t be allowed. But for what it’s worth, a lot of non-profits that have a product do this. Mozilla for instance.
As always every person’s workflow will be their own. I’m honestly not sure what you are arguing.
While that is an important distinction. It still needs to be said that Krita is a drawing program like Inkscape and Illustrator not a photo editing program like GIMP or Photoshop.
Krita is an Illustrator replacement not a Photoshop replacement.
You can absolutely play Call of Duty on Linux… and Call of Duty 2!!!
Culture doesn’t have anything to do with intelligence. Also, no, driving 3 hours in the US will definitely get you to a different culture, likely a different accent even. It takes 3.5 hours to get from NYC to Boston…
The company that provided service finally had a DSL option at their location. Though 2mbps/.5mbps wasn’t much of an upgrade over duplexed 56k in modern Internet terms especially since they were the furthest house from the node.
There is a whole cottage industry of replacement iPod parts now. I have seen some pretty cool ones with flash storage and clear cases.
Unfortunately the Minis and Nanos are a pain in the ass to open.
My grandparents still had dial-up in 2016.
The number of times I have received an un-proofread two sentence email is too damn high.
