Been there. Done that. Even attended the “spawn till you die” festival in ‘98 but all I got was a stupid t-shirt.

Reader beware. Article is from 2022 and stuff has probably changed a lot. OpenBSD is currently in version 7.9, article talks about 6.6.

Also the PC Engines APU2 the author speaks about is EOL and no longer in production.

I do like how the article is clearly dated at the top. I believe all internet articles should be dated - it provides a huge amount of context imo.

> Later revisions of the PPU did offer RGB output options but most NES and Famicom systems had the single pin output.

Anyone have any insight on this? The article does not elaborate.

I have a “New-style” NES. Do I have the “upgraded” PPU?

Excellent, memorable scene.

Genuine question: how did you conduct your job search? What steps did you take during those two years? Do you have a degree?

Completely anecdotal, and mostly unrelated, but my NES from 1990 is still going strong. Two PS3’s that I have owned simply broke.

CRTs from 1994 and 2002 still going strong. LCD tvs from 2012 and 2022 just went kaput for no reason.

Old hardware rocks.
