Meanwhile I don’t like the software that saves a rolling three minutes of gameplay so I can instantly save anything cool that happens because I don’t want my SSDs constantly being written, so I just have it load the temp file into drive emulated by RAM instead. Don’t touch my SSDs!

Listen to his music, too! It’s amazing! I’ve seen him a few times and one time the equipment at the festival didn’t work so he just improvised his whole set. He was insanely good at it. So much vocoder, it was delightful!
I agree that 2k+ is far too much money for what it is, but if you think it won’t be completely sold out instantly in Canada…
90s Civic or Miata has been my dream forever, I’m with ya.
Two pieces of modern tech, though: security and sound.
90s Civics were notoriously easy to steal, so I’d definitely want something to prevent that.
When I was younger, I’d always dreamed of having a nice sound system in my car, but could never afford to do it. Now that I have a car with a super nice sound system and a sub, I can never go back. No “infotainment” BS tho, just gimme a standard deck. USB support is nice, but an aux jack is all I really need.
My oldest SDD is still at like 85% health and it’s almost 15 years old O:
Shoot, my VR machine is about 13 years old with original CPU, RAM, and HDD! It has my old SSD now and a newer video card (2070) so it can play rhythm games at 90-120FPS.
My oldest working (working for tasks I’d actually use a computer for, not retro fun) computer is 15 years old! MacBook Pro. I need to get Linux installed on it. That’s a project for.. eventually.
I really love WinRAR but I’ve switched to 7zip. I would totally pay for WinRAR but I have a LOT of computers and I’m constantly reinstalling things on many of them.
I just use ninite for everything like that. It’s been my homie since the early 2010s.
Heck yeah! It was super easy to set up with AIM Toolkit.
I think 16GB of RAM would be sufficient for most any game computer to do it this way—I’d allocate like .75 to 1GB on my 16GB machines.
My main game computer has 32, so I allocated 2GB since I never come close to touching it!
I was looking at the RAM drive’s properties in Wandows and was giggling after clicking on the “ReadyBoost” tab. Gotta use that RAM drive as a buffer between RAM and SSDs!
