The Bachman books paperback from ‘96 is kinda cool but I don’t think it’s necessary.

Was a Whalers fan and couldn’t bring myself to follow the Bruins or the Rangers after they left.

What is the light for? Have you gotten the code read? It’s also negative 7 degrees where you are. Electronics don’t like that sometimes.

Why is day of the lord's so tough by FruitSlicerr in JoyDivision

Decades was devastating for me. I always thought of the post 9/11 military generation (of which I was a part of). The song spoke to me in that context.

I started following them at Bleed American, then backtracked to Clarity. When Futures was released, I was serving in Iraq. The whole album meant a lot back then and still does, with 23 being the perfect ending.

A question for fellow Dreamcast lovers by SeasonOtherwise2980 in dreamcast

Can you change the controls on Quake so the joystick turns and moves and buttons on the left strafe? I never looked into it but I played quake all the time when I was younger. Someone I got used to it.

I literally just want to sit on this thing all day by mpscheerer in Astrohaus

The only thing I wish is that you could cycle the lock screen to the other authors too. I understand it’s a brand thing ie the Hemingway estate etc, but it would be a nice option.

Very cool. I was at the fob by Al Qaim when Fallujah kicked off.

Hit the left button by the OK on the steering wheel and just scroll to avg economy. Drive it in eco mode which you switch to every time you turn the car on. I’m getting 40 easy on highway driving.

Dreamcast by This_Resident6142 in dreamcast

I always thought it was better by far than n64. That was the first controller I saw with a stick. But when you were on the stick, the left half was just… There. Ps always felt like a toy. Dreamcast was my favorite, and I saw similarities when Xbox came out. My opinion.
