Seeing the Sega-CD with a retail price of $49.99 hurt my soul.

I bought mine on release day and specifically remember selling my entire pewter figure collection and just barely having the $311.99 (after taxes) for my Sega-CD at "Best"... Not "Best Buy"... Just "Best".

Still don't regret it.

Nope.

I launched it once on July first and then deleted it. No reason it keep a non-functional app installed.

Had a lot of fun with RIF, but all good things must come to and end.

I hope KIF comes out someday.

I feel ya.

This weekend I'm going to quit all my mod duties, and delete my 10+ year account with 350k karma.

Almost brings me to tears when I think anout all the time and energy I put into keeping shit cleaned up over there.

/Kbin is my new home, and I hope to make just as many friends here as I did there.

You either like Dune, or you don't.

I wouldn't disparage anyone that didn't.

But damn... The books are amazing. Once you read them, seeing the different takes on the story from the 80's movie, to the miniseries, to the latest interpretation.

It's amazing.

That series tried to be so true to the books, but just didn't have the acting muscle behind it to really shine.

I do love it though.

It's the first non-marvel move other than Oppenheimer that I'm truly geeked for.

Like, I'm a huge Ant-Man fan, (we do exist) but even for Quantumania, I was.... Rightfully cautious..

But I don't feel that way about Dune and... Christopher Nolan movies.

It's a nice change of pace to not have the trepidation.

Sometimes I feel like that...

But then I watch an hour long video about a man trying to improve his refrigerator, and I decide it's not worth worrying about.

It meat that has gone through a hull implosion.

It could be human, it could be half a can of Spam... Would be hard to tell the difference without a DNA test.

He talked about it publicly on the Howard Stern show...

We all knew he would say worse behind closed doors.

Honestly... My friend bought Diablo 4 and I like playing video games with them.

I would have passed on it otherwise.
