Valve partnering with AMD to develop hybrid APUs certainly helped, but Ryzen's success also stands on it's own. And despite Nvidia finally starting to cooperate with open video drivers, their user support, both for Linux users and in general, has been abysmal for too long for me to ever go back.

The xbox layout is an abomination, and any controller that puts the dpad above the parallel analog sticks is okay in my book. Touch pads and gyro are better than analog sticks, but not as good as M+K. I'd play adventure games like Subnautica with them, but certainly not precision shooters.

Hate it when people spread the misconception that autistics are lacking in emotional intelligence. We just don't put much stock in it like normies.

Spyrius, Space Police, Ice Planet and Aquanauts. And Technic, of course. I never got into Rock Raiders.
Now, it's almost all licensed properties. No originality.
8094 Control Center was my absolute favorite set.

I prefer this one. The mysterious old man who gave him the seeds being in the crowd at the end was a nice touch by the illustrator.

To hell with the games. I'll never forgive them for abandoning the Mobius Freedom Fighter-verse.

I remember when my niece was 2 or 3, I was drunkenly websurfing, came across an article about how people were trying to ban Anne Frank's diary yet again, and immediately went on Amazon and sent about $300 worth of books in her name to make damn sure she appreciates books as young as possible.
