    Isn't that thing like $900usd or something?
    There's another master race handheld that's China only iirc, it has a really odd name I can't recall atm. I think that one is AMD powered.

    Well looks like Alvro collection is down and files have been deleted. Sad day for emulation. It had a lot of isos and roms. Though its possible it could be back up, only time will tell.

    Alvro was a guy who had a huge collection of roms and isos.

    I guess that didn't go as planned. Might've been better off paying for a seedbox

    Yeah it sucks. The collection was huge. Who knows if someone else has it mirrored or whatnot.

    That's why Archive.org is such and important website.

    Stuff gets removed from archive.org too though, I've gone to pages myself and can't download something that was previously available. But then I guess someone else shares it there, and over and over again

    Another thing I've seen on there is the torrents are sometimes really messed up, like you load it up and a bunch of useless (not archives,roms or PDF) files are included on a massive list that you have to go through and untick And no, they aren't always just the couple of padding files you may randomly see sometimes. These are other files like various document formats that are dupes of PDF, spreadsheet files and just general crap I don't need if I'm downloading a rom set, or a set of manuals for a particular platform.
    I get some people might want a set of documents in another format besides PDF, but why the fuck just throw everything into a torrent without folders to split shit up? Same with roms.
    Disorganised piracy really bugs me

    I ask Chinese sellers questions all the time, for reasons I'm sure most people are aware of.
    I'd say more than 50% of the time I don't get a response now.

    In the past (like maybe a year ago and longer) nearly all of them would be falling over themselves answering questions and making offers, not now though. US relations have soured (well, probably turned to alcohol now) plus the fact that my own government has tended to be a loud noise in recent times because they're fucking retarded. Guess what? China doesn't want to buy as much of our resources, wine etc now (and that's going to hurt the economy). Canberra wants to have cry to whoever internationally but nobody can do anything about it you fucking morons

    Anyway, I well and truly digress. I blame the heat (it was close to 40c today).

    I asked this Chinese seller a question about something as the pictures are a bit confusing, I mean 2 different versions pictured but no options for purchasing? Eh?

    So I get this response:
    Dear friend,I will check it with my partner and record it for you. I will do my best to solve it for u after checking it. It’s really my honor to serve you. Best regards

    I haven't seen a message like that for a year.
    Is it a sign that things could improve now that McDonald Trumpet choked on his own cock?

    He's still in office for 9 days, plenty of time to fuck things up more.

    It's a sign things could improve when he manages to STFU.

    This heat is driving me crazy

    Hopefully it should cool down on Friday for a few days at least.
