  • Oldest by release is my NES which I got recently as a sort of gift sort of “Well I’m not using it” from a family member.

    Oldest in terms of owned by me the longest is my SNES which I got for Christmas when I was about 8-10 along with a CRT, I remember that Christmas quite fondly.

    I don’t find myself often going through the effort to play my retro consoles anymore with projects taking up a lot of my time. If I had the time, however, I’d happily use the consoles over emulating, which I do frequently.













  • It’s so easy to think that it can’t happen to you. Then it happens. Happened to me, happened to cyber security majors at my college. I’m so glad he got the channel back. I love Son of a Glitch and seeing now that YouTube casually didn’t recommend his videos for months just means I’ve got more to binge I guess!

    There’s a project I could have written in Rust. Maybe some of the headache wouldn’t have ever happened using Rust.

    I also didn’t know Rust at the time and it was a large project with unkind deadlines. I think the right tool for the job can also depend on available resources. So while the more unsafe, older tool I used caused a few small issues that Rust would not have; the project wouldn’t have been finished if I’d used Rust.
