Just a heads up most legal versions lack almost all the pop music the show originally had. There is said to be some unofficial sources that still have all the music.

It the old days when providers still branded the actual phone, we would use sugar cubes to take logos off without scratching underneath. Depending on the paint tho it may be a piece of pie or a mission from hell, but usually worked amazingly (in terms of leaving base unharmed).

I forgot the details but the 2005 Most Wanted has an unofficial update pack that brings widescreen and other creature comforts. It was well supported except I could never get lan-play to work on my Win10 hosts. I wish I had a link but everything I find is piecemeal and the patch I had years ago combined the popular ones to one patch.

Every one of the last 25 years has been the year of Linux, the Steam Deck is definitely moving the needle but not enough to actually overtake anything, at least at the moment.

E doesn’t even go north of 53rd st, not even reaching Central Park and thinking you’re uptown hurts to think about.

It is actually worse than that, all phones have an FM tuner built-in to receive emergency alerts from various nations. At one point, I forget who (possibly Sinclair?, iirc it was a large American broadcast company), attempted to pass legislation in the US to force the OEMs to allow access to the chips which somehow failed. I believe most androids that are rooted are able to access the FM radio irregardless, but I am unfamiliar of the minutia involved. I’d estimate 99% of iPhones in use have an FM radio chip, I believe only Sprint (a defunct American carrier) ever shipped with FM radio available.

No worries, I felt same, this is maybe Highlights for Kids (the comics at the doctor lol) tier hard, but especially with the song age (~25 years), I had trouble, I can only imagine after a whole shift.
