POS systems all live up to their acronyms. Intel Atom (or the lowest end chinesium) CPUs, barely enough RAM to function, an out of date build of Windows (or Android), and software that feels like it was designed in 1993 and never grew out of that era. Often requiring a screen resolution of 800x600 for PC on VGA touch displays that feel like they’re 25 years old, and force disable all ipv6 because we don’t want to risk the network working better than the recommended static ipv4 setup from hell.

There is a functional difference, though. Roguelikes start you from Zero everytime. Roguelites give you meta progression that you can bring into your next run.

PayPal Pay In 4, Paypal 12 months (sometimes), Amazon Affirm, all no interest. Unless you miss the payment. Then bend over for it. Interests rates vary from 8 percent to 32 percent retroactive, depending on who you get it through. I’ve used BNPL several times, but always made sure I can afford the payment in the monthly budget, and only when it is zero interest.

Mine’s 5th gen, so it’s bigger than the one he’s got.
Mine’s also stick. 5th gen (2017-2023) is the last gen with the manual. Other than the WRX and the BRZ, all the new ones are auto only.
Also, 155k, still on the OG 5 speed. Had to put new center diff (limited slip component was not limiting slip properly), but otherwise still good. Yes it has gearwhine, it’s had it for 100k miles now.
