I own all of Analogue's restomod consoles. They are truly the Singer of vintage gaming, and I was lucky to get an early taste of the company's eagerly anticipated remained Nintendo 64. Unfortunately for the Analogue 3D, it's the games that let the experience down.

Analogue 3D review: Modern processing can't fix vintage flaws
Your Nintendo 64 games never looked so good, but Analogue's greatest system yet can't fix some of the N64's inherent flaws.

For perspective, the drop from standard pressure at sea level to where Hurricane Melissa is now is a bigger drop than the span from the highest atmospheric pressure ever recorded in Iowa to the lowest. It's incredible.

behold the "HTML bomb"

It's a counterattack for AI companies that persistently scrape and rescrape your web site, even when you tell them not to

when a scraper grabs it, it becomes a 10-gig HTML page and 💣 goes the scraper

There are just some things that shouldn’t be sold in bags. Sauerkraut is one, milk is another. Shelf-stable precooked pasta? Actually, that one just shouldn’t exist.
