Currently on vacation in Mexico using their wi-Fi. (I have a pi-hole setup at home. ). Using mobile with iOS. Tried Firefox as well as Firefox Focus. Neither blocked the annoying bits.

Any other links available? Unable to read most of the article due to annoying popups and blocker blockers.

My mister plays 100+ different arcade boards/games. There is also a yet to be released MARS FPGA system which will play Dreamcast + systems.

Think of all the arcade boards!!!

Thank you for the thing I learned today.

Retro gaming brings a feeling of nostalgia for most that are into it. My video game life started off on an Atari 2600, so playing old games from my childhood is fun and a reminder of easier times. That being said NES provides a bunch of pick up and play fun games. Here is a short list of fun games to play.

Mega Man series- Mega Man 2 has the most banger soundtrack.
R-Type

RC Pro Am
Ironman Ivan Stewart’s Off-road
Super sprint
Double Dragon

These should provide a bunch of different play types and genres to figure out what types of games scratch your itch.

Model 3 Highland “Ludicrous” variant found in the Tesla car configurator code, performance specs leaked Iqtidar AliMarch 11, 2024 Tesla (TSLA) held the launch of the top-end “Performance” variant of the new Model 3 Highland globally when it introduced it last year. Still, to date, only the base RWD and Long Range AWD versions are available for sale.

However, some evidence has surfaced online that shows that the Model 3 Highland Ludicrous is just around the corner. By looking at the source code of the Tesla Model 3 online car configurator, we can find the Ludicrous variant mentioned in it.

Tesla enthusiast Justin (@hoonigan37) tracked the Ludicrous Model 3 in the configurator first. When I saw his tweet, I checked it myself — and yes, it was there. I dug a bit deeper into the code (thanks to my Web Dev background), and I found a few more details.

Another step in the right direction! It’s also hidden in the European configurator, just checked it. pic.twitter.com/14BBnbJsIB — Geitenijs (@geitenijs) March 10, 2024 – Advertisement – Screenshot: The source code lines that detail the Tesla Model 3 Ludicrous variant and its performance specifications.

The more interesting aspect of this reveal is that the online configurator source code also contains the range and vital performance figures of the new Tesla Model 3 Highland Ludicrous variant. According to this leaked information, the Ludicrous Model 3 has the following specs (final specs at launch might differ):

Range: 310 miles (499 km) Top Speed: 162 mph (261 km/h) Acceleration (0-60 mph): 3.2 seconds The Performance variant of a Tesla vehicle has a lower range compared to the mid-tier Long Range variant. This is primarily because both vehicles have the same battery pack capacity installed. To provide optimum performance, acceleration, and speed, the owners will have to compromise on the range a bit.

While the Long Range AWD Model 3 Highland goes 341 miles on a single charge (EPA est.), Model 3 Ludicrous will provide 310 miles. The degradation of 31 miles is a bargain for the bumped-up performance specs.

– Advertisement – The Ludicrous version of the new Model 3 Highland is currently appearing in the backend code of both the US and European Tesla car configurations. This suggests that this version might be simultaneously launched in Europe along with the US.

The improved performance figures of the Model 3 Highland Ludicrous are also due to the better aerodynamics as well. Tesla modified the front bumper design of the Tesla Model 3 Ludicrous and added new wheels as seen in the recent sighting in Spain.

A camouflaged Tesla Model 3 Performance was also sighted in the US last week. Interestingly, it was getting transported along with the Cybertrucks. Tesla was probably shipping it from Giga Texas to the Engineering HQ in Palo Alto, California for further testing purposes (pice below).

Not sure how you feel about emulation, but take a look at FPGA systems like the MiSTer or Analog Pocket. These use hardware/chip simulation to recreate a 1:1 real hardware experience. You can also use original controllers via adapters with 0 lag, so the games feel the same too. With one of these systems you will be able to play all of those systems plus a bunch more. It’s a cool system, highly recommended.

If you care to spend the money they do make optical drive emulators. These will trade an optical drive for an sd card. Kind of like adding an everdrive to a cart systems.

Check your local supermarket or Whole Foods. I live on the East coast of US and can get PG tips in my local grocery store.

I love the Saturn controllers by 8-bit do M30 6 buttons on the face plus 2 shoulder buttons. It fits all my retro game needs. Any of the 8 bitdo controllers will work and are high quality.
