@GreenCrush Since the retro boom, many retro stuff got more expensive, not only the Saturn. Also the Saturn didn't sell as well as Sony, therefore it is more rare.

@holo_nexus I wonder what they were thinking. They probably fired someone randomly, for justice. Higher ups in the meeting room: "But this random dude doing cable management did not stop us!"; Another voice: "Then fire him."; Modern problems require modern solution...

Someone here in this thread has two extra accounts, who don't post anything ever and just downvotes others here. Their names are: NodusCursorious, erkerkerk. They mostly downvoted in pair. You can see this if you click at more/activities. Is this cheating the system?

Or alternative "Kbinaries".

@goryramsy I like "Lemmies", as it reminds me Lemmings.

@ricecooker Because I am a non native English speaker, the character name "Crono" always tripped me, as the game has an "h" in "Chrono".

@SCmSTR No we never did Lan parties at home unfortunately. :-( But we played a lot of fighting games back then and the repeating songs got old. So we often just turned down the music and played something from hard drive. :-) So in a sense like LAN parties without LAN. Can we call it WLAN Party? :D

And in the past I experienced the worst thing that could have happened to anyone: Losing all personal data on HDDs! My younger self didn't know that backups was important.

Here is an alternative version with thumbsticks. Anyone is free to use these icons for whatever purpose they want to.

@SCmSTR Dang! You are right, if I think about it. Learned about OC Remix in early 2000s. Wow. Forgot how old I am... Literally remember how I bring mp3 files to my friends home to show off how crazy songs there are.

@wagesj45 Great idea! I know and listen to OC Remixes since over a decade I think, when it was relatively small. Its my favorite non commercial music platform ever. They respect the original songs and artists, it's really a place from fans for fans.

They even have Torrents to download ton of stuff: https://ocremix.org/torrents Here direct link to the two major Torrent links:

You can even use the music on videos in example, but have to give credit. More about that here: Frequently_Asked_Questions Can_I_use_OC_ReMixes_in_my...

@Gorejelly Yes! That was one of my main critiques on Reddit, which Kbin solves. Here people can write a body text to each link they post. I encourage everyone to write a small summarize like you did or any other comment about the content.

@falsem I remember. But at that time, Steam OS 2 was already based on Debian and not Ubuntu anymore. Steam OS 1 was based on Ubuntu if I remember correctly. Therefore what Ubuntu does wouldn't affect Valve anyway. So I don't know how much this played a role in switching to Arch. So the timing might be just coincidence.
