On this day in 1981, the production of the Delorean DMC-12 began.
The Delorean was a shit car. Other than futuristic doors, it was uninteresting. It was not a sports car. It was poorly designed, too heavy, and under powered with crap suspension.
If it weren't for Back to the Future and cocaine trafficking, the Delorean DC-12 would be like the Pacer. People might talk about it, if they see one rusted out on the side of the road, or in an old magazine, but no one is scrambling around for a mint condition Pacer.
Why am I talking about cars?

Got a new controller. Noooow just to figure out how to get it working with Linux. It does come with a USB dongle, and while the controller and dongle pair, the computer still doesn't register anything as being connected. My current Xbox controller still connects just fine (well, sorta, when it's not being difficult x3).
For reference, it is a RetroFighters battlerGC Wireless Gamepad, and I am using Linux Mint 21 Cinnamon.
