You can at least have the gaming!

IA has most games from that era archived and most consoles can be softmodded to play totally legally aquired backups that absolutely are not archived copies of games

Ok but recommend me some home brew so I can get sedentary.

I'm most familiar with PS1 Homebrew, its almost all available under the "Net Yaroze" name.

Without a Net Yaroze ps1, you'll need a TonyHAX/freePSXboot memory card to boot the games. TonyHAX unlocks the region by resetting the disc drive into an unlocked state after Boot. As a consequence, this also allows homebrew titles and less than legitimate copies of titles to boot. Don't use this for piracy, that would be iLleGaL.

Archive.org has 3 Net yaroze game jams available, one of which has 83 titles but they usually render black and white. There is also Fromage, a ps1 demake for Minecraft (barely functional, but neat to show friends)

This is cool and great!

Wasted on me because I've only got later Playstations 🙃. That does give me some drive to go hunting on my own.. hopefully find some treasure.

If you patch your homebrew ROMs with the 80minute cd patch you can load them in pcsx2. In this case I believe you'll have full color regardless of if the ROMs are made for PAL or NTSC

Edit: I actually don't think you have to do this since pcsx2 doesn't do anticipate checks, though you'll probably need access to a PAL bios, which is easy enough to install as a secondary bios in pcsx2

The minimalist design epidemic started in the 1930s and has gotten continuously worse since then

To an extent. memes allow you to go back to this since memes are user generated and cheap to make their isn't much stopping users from "going back" to a less minimalist time on those memes. I do have to say though that I think there a number of reasons as to why companies are more into minalism these days.

  1. Physical media is less prevalent, everything is happening online now, and so they might just be keeping in theme with modern web/app design.

  2. open source software is more prevalent and because of this, why would companies innovate at all if the interfaces are available to them for free.

  3. apple does it, and everyone has to follow apple. it's the trend in business.
