Remember when CRTs were like completely worthless and you could easily get one for crazy cheap (or even free in some cases) if you wanted to play old games? Yeah now people try and get like $100-200 out of them because they're 'retro'. It's why I'm glad I still got two CRTs, one with that bonus...

That's because most of this is market manipulation through Wata Games and Heritage Auctions. Long ass video but like it's bad (what Wata and Heritage Auctions are doing, not this video) And Wata and Heritage Auctions are also currently outright being sued for market manipulation too btw...

56k modems weren't even a thing when Windows 3.11 came out. Or at least they weren't available for consumer products.

Meanwhile my childhood exposure to Thomas was series 1-5 with virtually no exposure to Shining Time Station (TATMR and my single STS VHS of Mr Conductor's Evil Twin are the extent of how much I grew up with that series). So I consider those seasons to be my childhood 'classic Thomas' even if I...

The only thing I dislike about Masterforce (and I'm using the term 'dislike' very loosely here since it is my fave JG1 series and my fave Transformers series overall) is that the whole setting of the series feels very incongruent with the previous shows. Like Headmasters was obviously very...

People say this a lot recently and I don't get it. I'm saying this as someone who exclusively uses free streaming services (I mean I do technically have a subscription to Peacock but that's only because it's included with my internet plan, I never actually signed up for it) but the simple facts...

I still can't believe Sony's vision for the PS3 was people would want to work more hours to get one and want it more than anything else tbh.

i am 26 years old, if i went to a school to bully the nerds, i'd get arrested. (also no one has earnestly been bullied for being a nerd for decades. that's why i can't take nerds seriously, nobody has been picked on for liking star wars, comic books, anime, etc. in forever)

bullying nerds should be the national pastime

I like how this entire board is barely alive because most of the userbase left after the site was down for like 3 months last year or whatever.

If you go back in time a bit (so not anything any of us could have witnessed), Alexander Graham Bell offered to sell the patent to the telephone to Western Union for $100,000. Western Union instead turned down buying the patent, then later tried to launch a rival telephony system and ultimately...

imagine paying for cable

i thought you died

If you just remember seeing black then it was regular Diesel (the one without the claw and not numbered).

I'm gonna be real: Diesel 10 scared the jive out of 4 year old me when I saw TATMR in theaters. I remember asking my dad to take me to the bathroom several times when he was on screen. I still maintain his original characterization is one of the best antagonists this franchise ever had (even if...

That's a figure I have mixed feelings on (when it comes to the design, I have no experience with the actual figure). Cause on the hand, it's combining two things I'm a fan of and that's neat. But on the other hand, it obviously doesn't look anything like Thomas the Tank Engine despite being...

The crust was pre-made (because I couldn't be assed to roll-out some dough) but I made a pepperoni and mushroom pizza tonight (along with some pasta salad as a side dish).

Aye, and having recently finished reading the entirety of the original book series makes me cringe even more at what the series has become.

Hello? Yes, hi. Been a big fan of Thomas & Friends since I was like 4 years old (not joking when I say my earliest memory is seeing Thomas and the Magic Railroad in theaters), but I grew out of the series around age 7-ish and a random nostalgia kick a couple years ago led to me being obsessed...
