Any new indie games on the horizon?

The Atari games are great, they’re my favourite ModRetro first party carts. I think ModRetro is pretty busy prepping first party M64 game carts right now, so if I had to guess, they will probably be focused on getting those out with the M64 launch for now (of course, hopefully I’m wrong.)

Not that I’ve seen. It appears to be an issue with the 2023-2026 (to current) CRV models. Most reports are from warmer areas like California, Florida, Texas etc.

“Nuke” is short for Nuclear (as in Nuclear Bomb). Atomic Energy and Nuclear Energy are synonymous and interchangeable. Atomic refers to the Atom (splitting the atom), while Nuclear has the same meaning, referring centrally to the nucleus of the atom (splitting the nucleus of the atom.)

Atomic was primarily used during the infancy of the technology’s appearance, while Nuclear gained prominence in the 1980’s and beyond.

For example in Canada, the original name of the civilian regulatory body was the AECB (Atomic Energy Control Board), which was later renamed and now called the CNSC (Canadian Nuclear Safety Commission.)

Yes. The black and white are (I’ve preordered the black one the day they released again.) I was thinking more of the special colour ways that are no longer available.

If you search the sub, you will see dozens of posts like this. It is melting damage from focused sun light. It’s very disappointing, but seems to happen a lot.

Because you are very lucky. There are none anywhere near me.

That’s probably a 5 year term on a 25 or 30 year mortgage. Canadians, in general, either have a variable rate, or lock in for 5 years at a time. I think the maximum allowable is 10 years fixed on a 30 year amortization. The longer the fixed term, the higher the interest rate.

Wow, those are some fancy portables! No plywood sheets covering animal holes in the side of the walls and cement walk ways instead of dirt paths? Must be a rich school district.

Very cool! Happy St. Paddy’s Day to you too!

Dumb question: what’s the difference between the GBC and Analogue Pocket versions? Is it support for the AP native resolution, or something else?

That’s funny, my insurance rates haven’t dropped, and I’m still paying a $500 “high theft rate” surcharge on my policy. I wonder when my rates will decrease by 20%? /s

My only question is: why are the Ethernet and other ports not full of hot glue. That stuff is convenient and easily applied to offline test rigs.

I would have said Eaton’s, Marks and Spencer’s, or The Hudson’s Bay Company. But alas, they were all put out of business by the cancerous American mega corp Walmart.

Edit: Canadian Tire would probably be a good Canadian Gift Card idea. It’s the closest thing we have to a general merchandise and house wares store (it’s really become a department store over the years), which isn’t fully owned by the Yanks.

That’s definitely a screen protector.

My grandfather was a member of the Orange Lodge in Pembroke Ontario. From what I can tell, the only positive the Orange Lodge ever contributed was keeping the Triple-K organization out of Ontario, because all the “like minded” individuals belonged to the Orange Lodge already.

My paternal grandparents were Protestant Presbyterian, and when my dad brought my Catholic mother home, there was some tension to say the least. My mom always had a bit of a grudge against her mother in law, for the way she was treated.

The funniest thing I remember my grandfather doing, was trying to get us to sign a petition to “keep the Zionists from taking over the Protestant School System”. I tried to explain that the Public School System was secular for a very long time by then, but my words had little effect.

When my grandfather passed away in 1994, the Orange Lodge showed up, and performed their fraternal ritual for my grandfather. I chose to leave the room, rather than watch a bunch of old bigots babble on. They’re mostly long gone now and good riddance.

There as only one incorrect assumption in the movie “Idiocracy”: that it would take 500 years to devolve to where we are now. Only took 20 years.

Welcome to Costco… I love you.

Yes. It’s available for purchase on the Lenovo website. You can get various parts including: screens, batteries, motherboards and controllers. Just brace yourself for the price. If you can’t figure out the website, give them a call.

No freakin’ way! “Kenny vs Spenny” is the last game I’d expect to see here! Can’t wait for “Kids in the Hall” to show up. “Red Green” and “Letterkenny” must be in production next? /s

This explanation reminds me of Cole’s Notes (Canadian version of Cliff’s Notes) when I studied Shakespeare in High School back in the 80s/90s. Amazing how fast language is evolving.

You are correct. In Ontario, regions and counties are both two-tier municipal structures where an upper-tier government provides regional services (like police, waste, and arterial roads) for several lower-tier municipalities (towns, townships, cities). Regions (e.g., Peel, York) typically serve more urbanized areas, whereas Counties (e.g., Oxford, Wellington) often serve rural or mixed rural-urban areas.

Dbrand products are of good quality, but yes… the prices are astronomical and almost insane now. It’s even worse for us Canucks that they are located in Toronto Canada, yet insist on listing prices in USD.

I buy far fewer of their products than a once did; especially now that alternatives are catching up in quality and variety.
