Ah, typo sorry, I was thinking nes when I wrote that, but my fingers must have had their own idea.

I didn’t even realise this was released for the snes! Fond memories of it on the spectrum. Might need to crank up the old emulator when I get the time.

I hadn’t used FB for quite some time, when I finally tried to log in again, they wanted me to confirm who I was first with real ID.

Not to make a new account, just to access my existing account, of which I know the password, security answers, and could confirm ownership via my registered email account.

And that was the final nail in the coffin.

Fuck. No.

He’s a greedy little shit who’d rather run the entire platform into the ground for a buck than do anything useful with his life.

He could’ve done great things. He could’ve gone down in history shoulder to shoulder with some of the big guys, instead, he’s been a snivelling backstabbing little fungus from day 1.

I loved it until I didn’t.

Don’t remember how far I got, maybe 2/3 of the biomes, then I burned out and got bored. That was a while back, and flattening the land was really glitchy. I’d have an area perfectly flattened and ready to commence building, save it all down, come back next day, and it’d all gone to shit again. I got sick of trying. It became more of a grind just to get back to my last save point than I wanted, and gave up on it.

Did it ever get a full release?

As a kid, I found Gargoyles Quest infuriatingly addictive. I wasn’t good enough to do well at it, it annoyed me, but I kept going back for more.

I totally agree, I just cba. I have too much going on in my life to start from scratch like that again, and windows is just easy now. I hate the whole drm model, but like most people, I’ll live with it unless Linux finally becomes an easy, viable alternative that’s supported to the same degree as windows and feels just as easy to use.

Sounds like you’ve already answered your own question.

It might die. If it does, it’s not a super big deal. You have backups. You don’t like creating unnecessary e-waste.

As gets have said, crystal disk info can help detect any existing problems, but it can’t predict the future if something happens suddenly. So it can be a good indicator, but don’t assume it’s 100%.

At the moment, yep, completely agree.

In the future, maybe not so much. Think cloud gaming. Think VR. Think 4k per eye atm, scaled up as tech improvements scale up to much higher resolutions than we currently have. Maybe multiple people streaming VR games at the same time in the same household.

Now put all of that together.

Bandwidth isn’t an issue right now, but this could potentially be a pretty sweet improvement as we move forward.

Video conferencing however… Not sure how that would benefit from this.

We’re looking to get our first TV in years, the current one is about 10-12 years old. We don’t watch normal ‘tv’, everything is streamed through another device.

What kind of adverts can I expect in a modern current-gen TV?
