16GB RAM max prevented me from an immediate purchase. Next year, when I can at least have 32GB and be somewhat future-proofed. That they are still selling new computers for $1000+ in 2020 with 8GB RAM as the default and 16GB of RAM max is a

I've been working on a very simple (but extremely useful) WatchOS project I'd like to keep under wraps for the time being, as I think it could certainly sell. Apple's WatchOS documentation, however; is sparse at best, barely

That looks neat - but I don't think it fits the PS1/N64 era very well at all. It seems more like that pixel art/Minecraft kinda feeling. I would also absolutely love a very simple N64/Saturn/PS1 era 3D modelling &#x

Might be a less extreme example, but look at retro gaming fans, e.g. a few of the Sega Saturn nuts I know in the homebrew community will actually pay $400-800 for a single game that was originally $70-80: (I'm seeing $1175.47 here for

How, specifically, is the hardware dying? iPods are extremely easy these days to mod, fix, and even upgrade storage space on - /r/iPods is often full of these fantastic projects. There is also /r/iPodhacks. It's fai

Came here to say this. As soon as it popped up, I was like; oh, shit, yup - there it is. WinAmp and it's fantastically on-point UI-mockup and functionality was also a super nice touch. tbh I still use Windows XP SP3 in my VM on my Mac

Why on earth is this flagged? This is such an important discussion. I'm also shocked by the folks here who feel they're too special to respect other people with language. I expected better of this community.

They are not using any serious video effects on this. They've also created something very cool. This is certainly a real product. It's a little misleading in the sense that it needs to be connected to something. Which honestly mak
