I wanna do a sleeper build with an early 2000s Pentium 4 Dell case. My current desktop may just fit inside one, aside from the bigass GTX 1050ti I'm currently rocking. That'll likely take some mods to fit.

I watched part of a pirated stream of it when I was visiting a friend the other day. It was alright, but I feel like I would've liked it a lot better if I had seen the other 20 or so MCU films. I don't get how Captain America got to use Thor's hammer. Isn't Thor supposed to be the only person ( …

DOSBox doesn't really work that way. The cycle count in DOSBox doesn't really correlate to the speed of any real CPU; all instructions in DOSBox take only one cycle, whereas on a real CPU instructions may take multiple cycles.

I don't know about zombies, but -german forces robots. I might have to resort to that. Seems kinda lame though. Why not track down "Destruction Derby" or something instead? I was thinking that I could show him the Burnout games on a PS2 emulator, but they don't offer the type of freedom Carmageddon …
