<'s tempted to play LoZ Twilight Princess and Wind Waker on <'s PC as < has the Dolphin emulator set up with custom hi-res textures, though <'s also kind of tempted to wait and see if they release them for Switch (which < heard was a promising possibility).
< thinks <'ll end up paying Wind Waker on PC either way, as < had already started a playthrough but stopped playing for no good reason.

That sounds pretty scary! <'s curious as to how effective a hot CPU would be as a cooking implement. Come to think of it <'s never actually monitored the temperature of anything in <'s computer, maybe < should give it more attention...

If ^ is right about Windwaker HD and Twilight Princess HD being ported to Switch, then < hopes they'll put them both in a compilation pack, maybe even include Ocarina of Time and Majoras Mask 3D with upscaled resolution.

If ^ hasn't heard, <'s basing <'s hopes on this news. Basically Nintendo have released a few games on the Nvidia Shield exclusively for China, but the Shield uses the same processor as the Switch and the games run on an emulator made for said processor which apparently runs even better than Dolphin. Each game is $10 which makes the prospect of a compilation pack somewhat promising, but considering how Nintendo isn't as big in China < thinks they'd probably ramp up the price and sell them as VC titles on the Switch.

< doesn't think it would be any good for cooking, at least in this case, since it is incapable of efficiently transferring heat out of the chip package. And as for the scariness, well, thanks to auto throttling, it hasn't fried itself yet! But this throttling must be having some impact on performance.

< had lots of laughs with them during the playthrough.

< could've said all this last night but <'s father sent < to bed way too friggin' early.

<‘s finally getting <‘s head around electricity, which has always stumped <, by using gravity as an analogy and thinking about the actual electrons. < thinks the water pipes analogy is just confusing...

Inverse square laws and potentials and all that? Excellent analogy!
< has been reading some of the preview of "The Road to Reality" on Google Books. < might borrow it from the university library next week.
