The original Medal of Honor for the Playstation 1 had an alternate control scheme that let you move in the modern dual stick manner.

Oh yeah, they handled it properly for sure.

Baldur’s Gate 3 gets pretty explicit

They already are just PCs and have been since the PS4/XBone. It’s all just slightly customized PC hardware inside.

Goodwill is particularly bad about this. You can almost never find cool stuff in the stores anymore. It’s all siphoned off for ShopGoodwill.

It was definitely one of my luckiest finds, but I think another part of it was that it was a pay by weight bin outlet. A St. Vincent De Paul in my case. Stuff isn’t individually priced and you weigh your items on a scale when you check out and pay by the pound. It’s usually very cheap because mine has a maximum of $5.00 per item so even heavy things like typewriters have been cheap.

I much prefer bin outlets because of this.

My daily driver laptop is the T410 I found at a thrift store for $5.

Exactly, 10% of a billion dollars is one hundred million. That’s more than enough to live a cushy stress free life without ever working again if you’re not an idiot blowing it all on dumb shit.

That puts you in the same net worth bracket as a lot of celebrity actors and musicians.

Battery technology will be improved. Look at how much better today’s lithium ion batteries are than the NiCad batteries of the 90s.

At some point, we’ll develop something that doesn’t wear out for tens of thousands of charge cycles.
