I want one because it’s got a proper HDMI-CEC implementation for a living room TV device, it will run silently, and it’s tiny. I also have a Steam Deck, so I expect to use them together quite often.

I am aware I can get a different PC right now. I don’t want one bad enough to do it though. I also may not buy a Steam Machine depending upon how the price shakes out. I was thinking maybe $600ish when they announced it, but it’s not worth $1k to me given its modest capabilities.

I’m going to wait for it to exit beta first, but I am excited about being able to run vanilla Klipper on the CC1!

Same for me

That really sucks. I have a little brother who did similar things.

A PS Vita is backwards compatible with PSP games and is also easily jailbroken. I got one direct from a Japanese seller on eBay for under $100 (several years ago though).

PPSSPP is truly a work of art.

What other games did you have?

I bought a PSP with the 1.5 firmware so that I could jailbreak it right away. I owned a few original games, but battery life was always way better without a spinning UMD

Outrun 2006 was always my favorite.

I owe you a ten-second laugh

I see we have at least a couple shared interests!

What’s massive is the need for clicks

This is my story too. I hate what tech became, so I tried to pivot careers. I did a few other things, but due to a long list of reasons, I’m back doing tech work. I’m no longer help desk or working directly for an IT department. More of an in-house advisor and consultant with light sysadmin work.

I used to brew my beer and now I build and use 3D printers. The physical world is more interesting to me than all those extra numbers today’s processors can crunch.

A plastic razor blade scraper may help keep you from scratching your stove top. They’re easy to find on Amazon and other online stores. I’m not sure about physical store availability though

So… KY? Astroglide?
