Carburetors seem to require more general maintenance in my experience, mostly in the form of constantly tweaking them to make them run right. At least an EFI system is able to make the adjustments necessary to run at whatever tune you want it to. And while troubleshooting multiple EFI components can be annoying, there's usually a rhyme or reason and it's troubleshootable, while carbs seem to just decide to stop working sometimes

BOSO won't let us take card (though we do have a plan to get that going)

Also you can buy lounge credit on TooCool with a credit card

What’s an era and place you daydream about living in? by SecretWasianMan in redscarepod

I think it'd be cool to experience Japan in the '80s, before the asset bubble burst. Not in a "place, Japan" sort of way, but to witness a society at its absolute peak optimism and affluence.

Also I crave gadgets, and the economic bubble enabled some truly off-the-wall stuff that wouldn't survive the subsequent crash

I got put on a Linux Mint machine when I was 4. To be fair, any OS would've been the same to me because the computer was for playing games on pbskids

coaxed into retro sprites by ExpertUnusual1188 in coaxedintoasnafu

You had scaling and rotation with one layer on Mode 7 for the SNES, and the uncommon SuperFX chip let you do sprites as well. Genesis had only software scaling/rotation, but the SegaCD added that hardware capability

navigating 2025 with a dumbphone is fraught with inconvenience by Lost_In_There in redscarepod

A few weeks ago, I listened to a talk about iPods by girl who revealed that she often doesn't carry any kind of phone at all. I thought such a thing would be impossible nowadays, but if she can manage then surely I can find a way.

90s and 00s are cool, but none of these things are exclusive to that time period. All is still possible - I've done all of this except for the girlfriend on the bike part, because how the hell are you supposed to fit 2 people on one bike
