What kind of programs would benefit most from being ported to retro consoles?

Obviously Doom.

For the ADHD crowd this is often literally how it works.

No stimulants? My restless leg will shake this whole building down. With stimulants? I can sit there at my desk, happy as a clam.

This complex will be world’s first large-scale “green steel” project, according to H2 Green Steel, the Swedish company behind the multi-billion-dollar mill.

Electric Arc Furnaces everywhere - "am I a joke to you?"

Sarcasm aside, I know EAF has its challenges, but this article really acts like coal-fired plants are the only alternative to hydrogen.

The boycott makes a innocent sufferer of the bus company. Had the company defiled city and state laws its franchise would have been canceled. The quarrel of the Negroes is with the law. It is wrong to hold the company hostage.

The white man's economic artillery is far superior, better emplaced, and commanded by more experienced gunners.

Second, the white man holds all the offices of government machinery. There will be white rule for as far as the eye can see.

Are these not the facts of life?

Let us be specific, concrete. What is the cost is the bus boycott to the Negro community? Does any Negro leader doubt that the resistance to the registration of Negro voting has been increased? Is economic punishment of the bus company - an innocent hostage to the laws and customs of Alabama - worth the price of a block to the orderly registration of Negro voters?

What I'm trying to say here is, fuck off Washington Post with your "why don't you protest the way I want, quietly in the corner" bullshit.

Just want to add, not only is it a ridiculous number because of sales, there's also free games that wreck the numbers.

Glancing at my unplayed library, sure there's a bunch of leftovers from Humble Bundles I got ages ago for what amounted to a fraction of retail, but there's also things like BioShock 1&2 Remastered - games that were given out FOR FREE to owners of the original. I've PLAYED the originals, but I assume the powers that be would tell you I have $60 worth of unplayed games sitting there since I haven't opened the remasters.

My God if I have to listen to my mother in law brag about how good of a "deal" her $10 (made up "retail", $26) Tommy Bahama hand towels from TJ Max were one more time....

How about Arabic? Or Chinese, simplified Chinese is read by like a billion people, so clearly easily readable, it even has simplified in the name!

Yeah but it's a lot harder to paint climate activists as the bad guys when you say things like "they souped our glass and powdered our rocks", so better to just lie, right?

I find it hard to imagine wanting to have kids just so your dictator has more meat to feed into his meat grinder. Perhaps the only good news is Putin hopefully doesn't have 18 more years in him, so the kids won't have to deal with him directly, but who knows who will sit in the throne next...
