Anyone do anything cool with your frisbie collection? in c/[email protected]

I understand you don’t and that’s fair enough

Yup, shot your opinion down hard didn't I? More like I said I understand you don't agree, but maybe tone down your vitriol. I'm not sure how I could have been more accommodating of your opinion without, well, joining your echo chamber.

Try not to pull an emergency stop with that decoration, yeah.

Also, I didn't create this to argue with people who do like their vinyl; I just wanted to promote some form of discussion in the new community. I'm glad you're enjoying the discs you've got.

Who shit in your chips? I'm sure there's people who don't like sleeves, posters, or books unused on walls either - but people do, y'know, like personal items on display. I understand you don't and that's fair enough, but simmer down a bit; it's not like I melted them down into an anatomically incorrect Katy Perry doll.

I totally get that, and if I had the space I'd do the same. That said, I've done almost the same; listening to the albums loud whilst looking through the new booklets...just no spinning vinyl part. It's always cool when the physical packaging is something more than just media, but CDs used to be just as good there too (albeit smaller I guess). I think most CDs that came out 1995-2010ish had effort put into the packaging. Hell, even DVDs like 'And All That Could Have Been' came with that see-through plastic message from Trent which was cool. I get that the subtle crackle of vinyl might elevate the vibe and listening experience though. ...maybe one day... (if the vinyl doesn't warp due to sunlight...)

Experiencing a new album physically is something painfully missing from the ease of just buying digital music though.

It's a shame these discs are never going to get spun, but since Reznor started crapping out remasters on vinyl I wanted to create a display of the three albums that defined my love for NiN. Quake was actually my gateway drug into NiN; I really hope that if there is a Quake reimagining in the pipeline that somehow Reznor/Ross are onboard...

At least they came with high-def FLACs that I can pump through my studio speakers...well, all but Quake, which I'm still annoyed at...!

Anyone do anything with their frisbies? Or maybe with the physical components of the recent trilogy, old t-shirts, etc.?

(And yes, the Quake album and Downward disc look 'odd' 'cos I blurred out people in the photo!)

I had it on the ZX Spectrum, where it was still absolutely vicious but not all that colourful! Seven year old me never completed it, even after I got it on Amiga, but I might just give it another go on seeing this. ...I can still hear the theme tune...!

Anyone else crazy enough to build their own retro-gaming machine? (lemmy.world)
 

(figured I'd 'do my part' and make my first Lemmy post...!)

I love this thing too much to part with, but I'm gonna have to be honest: I barely use it. More often or not I retro-game on my Steam Deck...slightly more portable!

Has anyone else built their own units for retro-gaming though?

I admit I'm the same, mostly through habit, but that'll come to a stop once Sync stops working.
