It's on my eMac, my Acer Aspire One and my random HP laptop. Might as well be on EVERY machine. 😆

Oh, and Debian probably. :debian:

Switching up because I feel more comfortable using a Linux distro. Everything I use that doesn't have a native version runs flawlessly under Wine.
I've been unemployed for a few years, but things in our household are getting much tighter so it's time to find a way to help out more.

I'm going to rid my main computer of Windows 11 today, then apply for work.

Here's a video of the animation, complete with all the coffee shop sounds. ☕

Here are some photos from our day trip to Pescadero, CA. One of our stops was a coffee shop called Downtown Local which has all kinds of fun retro things on display.
The main feature is an Apple IIe that plays an animation of the fighter from Karateka doing MC Hammer's Hammertime dance.

Good to hear that the 2600 games still hold up! I've played some Atari Lynx games, but that is about as far back as it goes for me. Added those titles to my RetroArch favorites so I can remember to play them sometime.

My top 3 retro games? Right now it is:
Bubble Bobble (NES)
Been playing this since I was a little one and I never stopped. Simple and nostalgic.
Donkey Kong Country (SNES)
Gotta make sure I can still fly through Mine Cart Carnage! Timing is everything.
Secret of Shinobi (Genesis)
One of those one-hit-your-dead games. Challenging but still very fun and I try to get as far as I can.
You got a few favorites yourself? 😃
