Never been a huge fan of Fast and Furious myself but I'm a huge fan of dead formats, especially dead formats that almost sorta kinda made it, until it turned out they didn't.

An old mate of mine is trying to collect everything ever released for HD-DVD, and apart from the porn titles, I think he's managed it. Next time I'm over at his place I'll have to get some photos.

I would love to get ahold of some Flexplay discs just because it's one of the stupidest concepts for physical media ever, even though I'm sure that even the sealed ones are unplayable now.

They cost around $4.99 and could be played in a standard DVD player, but would "self destruct" and turn solid black a couple of days after being opened and exposed to air.

Technology Connections did a video on this. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ccneE_gkSAs) He opened and tried to play a still sealed Flexplay disc. It didn't work, even though the disc wasn't darkened when he opened it.

I have a pill bottle filled with spare screws extracted from broken mice, in my parts drawer filled with salvaged broken mouse parts. I can probably still build seven or eight complete mice from raw materials at the moment.

I do like so that he is aware his new setup looks kind of lovely. Ben Heck in the comments mentioned the backdrop is too dark and the table too light, which sounds right

He definitely made some... questionable decisions with all the color scheming. But yeah just changing the countertop would probably be enough to make it look reasonable.

I'm unsure if 8-Bit Guy is just comfortable with how much a dweeb he is or completely oblivious to how much of a dweeb he is. I remember some jerk once writing him a letter asking him to do a Kermit the frog impression and he actually did it.

He open-carries guns explicitly to scare and intimidate people so he's probably very aware of it.

edit: as in I don't give a poo poo if people like guns or whatever, but what he does is the thing I'd expect someone who had a complex about getting ridiculed to do

Also had pop-up menus from the go and, iirc, better audio.

I was pretty bummed that they rushed a bunch of low-spec players to the market and that Blu won.
