Yeah, that would be ideal

I just started using it again - the nostalgia really is something

Yes. And denim atrocities

Conversation and beer bottles

“If your ears don’t bleed, it ain’t music”

Its not original but “appnauseum” comes to mind…

Good old Mick (?). His talk about that era at the GDC was fascinating (and I’ve only fiddled a little with sound - even being way over my head it was great)

Aww man? Not again!

Well, people do die… Its pretty rare for things to go wrong in planes. In the context of this post it seems quite unrelated

They’ve put a whole lot of effort into making those things safe and you’re here trying to make them murder vehicles??

Dunno, I find it too hard to get out in the evenings. There could be fields of amps with 57s dangling like carrots and I’d never know

Wow, who are these people?

I guess throating a 58 is kind of a flex?

And not grabbing in dark mode

That’s bloody good, too

I loved the snarky way it would announce Cheater when they were typed in

You’ll certainly be getting boned, one way or another

Huh, TIL…

Thanks!

Gabbagabbahey was one of the cheat codes in descent - I forget what it did

I had a great home lab bench over 20 years ago - but that’s all it was!

A basic bench for displays and peripherals.

Beneath it was some free standing shelves that had some mini PCs (shuttle mini ATX based, I think).

But it was wires hanging free all up the back. People get all antsy about seeing wires but it’s a workspace, not a display stand. And needs change, so bespoking yourself into a corner is form-over-function (full disclosure: I’m obnoxiously in the “function first and the we’ll consider form, but NOT before” camp). I’ve spent too much of my career suffering in a form-over-function fustercluck that was irrelevant almost as son as it started being used that I’m highly allergic to them, if it’s not already painfully obvious…

That’s pretty good
