Minisforum UM580 Another Video

Another YouTuber, Retro Game Corps, has a video on the same mini PC I ordered.  The Minisforum UM580.  Which will ship at the end of the month (September 2022).  So very much looking forward to getting my hands on it.  You can see the video > here or below.  The main use for the computer will be games.  Do have some on Steam, Epic and GoG.  Then there is the emulation side.  Which this can do really well.  Have a big stack of PS2 I would love to play again.  Will be back will more posts once I get it my hands.

Robin S – Show Me Love

Time once again for musical throwback Thursday.   The pick this week is Show Me Love by Robin S.  This was released in 1993 off the album of the same name, Show Me Love.  I was of those who were confused when a different Robyn put out a song with the same title a few years later.  While you can tell the song is from the 90’s it still sounds good.  You can give it a listen > here or below.

The Division Heartland

We first hear about Ubisoft’s The Division Heartland back in May (2021).  It is a, “free-to-play multiplayer survival-action shooter set in a fictional rural community in Middle America.”  Am a big fan of The Division games, so will be giving it a try when it out some time in the future.  At there Ubisoft Forward a event (Sept 10, 2022) the put out a little video talking about it.  You can see that > here or below.  You can sign up for a closed beta tests.  I did that back in 2021.  Did get lucky in the past beta tests from other Ubisoft games.

Aqua – Cartoon Heroes

That day of the week again, musical throwback Thursday.  The pick this time is Cartoon Heroes by Aqua.  It has been awhile since I picked one of their songs.  Know they are not everyone’s style. However they do have some good ones.  This being one.  It is off their 2000 album Aquarius. You can give it a listen > here o below.

State Of Play – September 2022

Sony put out a new PlayStation State of Play video out yesterday, (September 13, 2022).  Watched it when it went live.  But if you missed it or want to see it again you can do so > here or below.  Each game they showed off was a few minutes of video.  The only one that had me interested was Rise of the Ronin.

Minisforum UM580 Video

Blogged about the mini PC I ordered a, Minisforum UM580 a few times.  It hasn’t shipped yet.  That will not be until the end of the month (September 2022).  Talking about this again because the YouTuber ETA Prime put out a video on this very computer.  Which you can see > here or below.  While it is not going to run the newest AAA games.  There will be 1000’s of older ones.  All so planning on some emulation.

Hampton The Hampster – The HampsterDance Song

Once again it is musical throwback Thursday.  Going with something silly but still sticks in your head.  It is The HampsterDance Song by Hampton the Hampster.  This started off as an internet meme back in the late 90’s and ended up on a full album called Hampsterdance: The Album released in 2000.  Their is an official music video out there but the audio is not so great.  However you can hear a good version > here or below.

Fatboy Slim – Ya Mama

That day of the week again, musical throwback Thursday.  Has been a few years since I have picked a Fatboy Slim song.  This time going with Ya Mama.  which was released as a single and on the 2000 album Halfway Between the Gutter and the Stars.  It’s one of those songs that can get stuck in you head.  Give it a listen > here or below.
