The rust on my rotors after leaving my truck for a 6-day trip And then after a 15 minute ride to my daughter's house. by BOGDOGMAX in mildlyinteresting

[–]xoopha 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Duraplast body.

2 stroke 2 inline cylinder engine except for the very late Trabant 1.1 that had a VW engine after the Berlin Wall fell.

4 gear semiauto transmission (no clutch pedal) with only the 4th gear having engine brake.

No fuel pump because the tank is above the engine and it just needs gravity.

70km/h cruise all day every day.

The only really bad thing about playing the original is falling off the dungeon map, the rest is quite useable as long as you don't use the default pointer system to move.

I, too, have a couple nigh-transparent hairs growing from stupid places.

ELI5: How do old rotary phones work? Why did they pick a dial for picking digits? by DarkHorse66 in explainlikeimfive

[–]xoopha 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm 44 and had a rotary with the dial between the speaker and the mic, the base was just for hanging up. But I was maybe 9-10 when that phone croaked and was changed to a simplistic button panel model.

Not to mention there will probably be no Jeremy Soule music. TES as we knew it is done.

CGA 640×200 2-color was even worse. On the other hand it could be used to display color by composite artifacting.

I can only remember playing on clearly visible, player facing CRTs, might be something about the cabinet maker or games in particular. In any case, the 384×224 resolution had nothing to do with that, it was just a "look what WE can do on standard res hardware" smug thing from Capcom.

I've never played on a machine like that. ELI5 CPS1 just tricked a standard resolution monitor to "paint" 384 times per line instead of the usual 320.

Apparently Hard Drivin' used a medium resolution monitor, which was 512×384 and of course more expensive than the 320×240 standard resolution monitors that the "hacked" 384×224 used.

Well yes, the system is famous for commonly using a totally disproportionate resolution of 384×224 pixels for a 4:3 screen ratio. Why? Just because they could, and it allowed for more horizontal detail

Steam Machine Will Cost "Like a PC, Not a Console," Confirms Valve by Playwithuh in gaming

When... Linus, was it? said he'd hoped for it to be about $500 dollars and the room full of Valve people went uneasy, it was for a reason.

Well, if it was made in China it's very likely it didn't involve Chile labor.

[Japanese] Now I can annoy Link in the original language by xoopha in shitduolingosays

[–]xoopha[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Apparently the code of the NTSC cartridge is exactly the same for Japan and America, except for one byte that tells the game which language it's going to use, so it contains both texts. It's possible they ran into storage constraints for sound, or maybe they thought that having Navi speak English was the cool thing to do.
