Nintendo should do a game with Smash's roster* but it's a dating game

*plus Waluigi

then again not that many games use physx extensively to begin with, I know about Borderlands 2 and Mirror's Edge (though ME really shines with it)

I wonder how expensive it'd be to have an extra nvidia card just for physx, it shouldn't need that much performance, especially if the actual graphics stuff isn't running on the same card

This is the computer that matches this CRT! It's currently a dualboot Windows Me/XP and it's powered by a 1.4GHz Athlon, 1GB of RAM (upgraded from 128MB) and a GeForce 2 MX. The CD burner is aftermarket. The power button is a little globe, but it's really hard to see in person so I can't really get a picture of it

Mirror's Edge is such a good game, sadly it doesn't have a 4:3 mode

It's interesting how this screen is fine to run ME or even XP but put Windows 10 on it and it starts feeling cramped. I guess UI got bigger over time, huh

hm, setting this CRT to 1600*1200 (its maximum) and Windows to 125% scaling might actually be the way to go

since this computer doesn't have any wifi hardware I'm just tethering my phone via USB, and it's working suprisingly well

neat, I got a Windows UAC popup while I was typing so I automatically rejected it by pressing space

good UX

I hate it when people say GNU/Linux when they mean Linux. It's totally possible to use Linux without any GNU tools. GCC isn't the only compiler
