third, cancelled in 2020, came back in 2021, cancelled in 2022 to “rethink” the event, then cancelled again. i forgot there wasnt one last year which shows how little it seems to matter now

I was specifically thinking of like 2011 or so. And yet, as intellectuals say, “lol.”

we’ll just have to go back to CES, e3 was always the lesser trade show anyway because it never had steven seagal hack into the CIA at the NEC booth there

Do I have to like reformat this computer to upgrade to 10, as I don’t have eternal storage to match what I have saved onto this which is a problem.

(Also someone else I know warned me against updating based on the age of my PC, said they’ve seen all sorts of issues trying it on ones of this age be it to 8, 10 or 11. Without the ability to effectively back up its contents that worries me greatly.)

…Maybe there is a pirate Steam version that will live beyond January.

Anyways I’m trying to convince myself to glass half full this and go “you can try Game Pass now if you want, and will be able to run all those various games you couldn’t before with an actual currentish video card”. Heck there are a few itch games that randomly crash my current card despite seemingly otherwise being able to run on a toaster, I’d basically get a 5 year window to hopefully just run games without having to really worry about it.

Oh yeah, two interesting enough games on the New Release today.

One is a Wayforward published (not developed) cinematic platformer that looks like it was made by people very into Out of This World and Flashback.

The other is a NES action platformer I’m linking the vid for just because I think the player character has a very jaunty run cycle.

If you are worried about losing the current system I recommend using something like Drive Snapshot which can keep of version of your system as is. You can even imprint an older system onto a newer one and try an inline update.

The Adamant IT video on updating to Windows 10 is pretty demystifying. I recommend checking it out.

I mean, I got like 1.9 of my 2 TB HD used up so I don’t have the ability to make a full backup sadly.
