Aurora Borealis!? At this time of year, at this time of day, at this part of the country, localized entirely within maybe as far south as Alabama to northern California?

        Could be a neutrino strike.

        (Or it could be an N64 memory expansion pack being flaky because damn they were flaky. It doesn’t matter that your game isn’t actually using the extended memory, it’s still shitting all over the RAMBUS).

              The parents are likely retired with a good pension and little debt, and so can support the kid indefinitely

      Despite the common assumption that most of these types of people are living at home with Mommy and Daddy I’ve known several programmers or coders who work from home and basically live like this.

      They only really leave the house for groceries or shit like that. Honestly outside of the hygiene aspects I’d kill to rarely need to leave my home.

          It’s also a cartoon. Vitamins, supplements, treadmills, stationary bikes, weights, and rowing machines exist.

      It’s almost certainly due to faulty hardware

        I know. I’ve watched that video. It’s extra funny that the TASer(?) bought the N64 from the speedrunner just to investigate it

    Alabama is so much farther south than northern California. How far south is it? Does Kansas fit in the range?
