  28 and I got 1 point. I’ve never sent a postcard.

  Its a holdover from the time before liquor started being sold in metric quantities. It’s not consistent at all, a pint is 375ml, a half pint is 200ml. A 5th, for fifth of a gallon, is 750ml. The names are used because the visually resemble the old containers

  Rare was basically a second party developer back in those days. They were given access to internal tools from Nintendo, a direct hotline for help, hell they even developed Nintendo IPs, which was unheard of for a western developer and is still rare even today

  Presto era Opera was fantastic. At the time Firefox was kinda stagnating and Opera was just innovating.

  I’d be curious as to the quality of the Sega Saturn looking N64 controller.
