Try to find a job. Like any job. I'll clean or do manual labor, no shame in that. I'd also try and look for government programs for re-education so I can learn whatever skills are in demand and the moment.

Dreamcast did have copy protection but its easily circumvented. Like even at the time it was fairly easy

Interested here as well, especially because the movie doesn't cover the Japanese perspective at all. Like 0 percent.

Mine was the T-Mobile G1. Slide out keyboard and track ball. I remember being underwhelmed by Android at the time so I switched to the Nokia N900 for a while which comparitively was more mature than android and iOS at the time.

Probably just nostalgia talking but the 90s was such a good time for console gaming. Sega and Nintendo were pumping out hits and then later Sony came in. I still remember standing in line at Target to get an N64. They ran out by the time my number came up so I got the 1st unit on the next shipment a week later. What an excruciating week, but firing up Mario 64 for the first time felt like stepping into the future to a kid like me

Yeah it was definitely aurora because there weren't many clouds, it was a pretty clear night, just windy

Jellyfin is so good. I'm travelling internationally right now and it makes me smile that I can stream stuff from my home at any time. I'm gonna miss Netflix DVD because I would get Blu-rays and rip them to my media library

Why do the British call it "redundancies". Seems like a weird way of saying we're laying people off

Didn't mean to get you so riled up, was just expressing an opinion. If you like your Garmin that's awesome I'm happy for you! Most of the cool features you talk about i can get from my smart phone so I don't need that in a watch, but it sounds like we live very different lives and what I need in a wrist watch is not what you need

i personally don't find smart watches interesting or really that useful (to me). I tried out a samsung watch for a while and had fun making my own watch faces but that's about it. Charging it every few days was a pain. I ended up going back to my trusty Casio F-91W. Super thin, 8-10 year battery life, alarm and stopwatch built in. Not much more I need from a device on my wrist.

So the question, there must be some sort of cut off age at which video games are no longer an acceptable pastime. Is it absolute age based (nothing after 35) or is it something to do with the progression of games into popular culture and people born after, say, 1986 will not see it as unacceptable?

Why do you care what other people/society thinks? Play/watch/read/do whatever you want. As long as you're not hurting anybody and you're enjoying yourself why would it matter
