What is something you didn't have before, and now do have, but you don't know what to do with it?

Anything goes.

As a child, I always wanted "free" access to the Internet, now that I have it anytime, anyday... I'm realising it's kinda useless... except for downloading any kind of music I want. Grew up with MTV, Walkman and Gameboy ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

Slightly off topic... right now I wish I had a Kaleidoscope though. Had some as a child, but don't know what happened.

I got recently got a "not working" Xbox 360. Turns out it works perfectly fine, the hdmi cable was just dead. I have it, I got read dead redemption for it, but I don't know what to do with it as I would need to grab a controller and memory card to sue it and I am not sure it is worth the hassle.

I have an Amiga 500 Plus that I bought ages ago. Really wanted to have a CompactFlash or HDD installed, but the vast majority of options are pretty expensive, especially with hardware upgrades in general.
For the 500+ (and 500), isn't there that mod from recent years that connects a raspberry pi to the CPU socket, to act as an accelerated CPU emulator and also hard drive connection? It was meant to work out much cheaper than getting vintage hardware upgrades.

Yes. It's called the PiStorm.

Having a screen on your controller is cool as fuck but also useless most of the time

There are some uses for it however, like playing Mario Maker in an enhanced way, Game & Wario and streaming games from your PC

It's a shame that Pokémon Snap 2 never used this concept, they still could've made an option where you connect two Switches to replicate the feature

Game consoles and a gaming PC. I have lots of hardware and lots of games I want to play but not enough time to play them so I just stick with the Switch. I didn't bother picking up the PS5 just because I'll never have time for it. I'd love to someday play the Demon's Souls remake.

Before, I didn’t have a strong emotional connection with my friends, but when one of them got sick, everything changed. It made me realize how important it is to cherish those relationships. Thankfully, with the help of medicine from Canada Drugs, he’s on the road to recovery. This experience has taught me to prioritize my health and the well-being of those around me. Protecting our health is vital, not just for ourselves but also for the people we care about!
