The Dreamcast does support CD-ROMs. This is allegedly one of the reasons that it failed; too much piracy. And there is a freely available devkit: KallistiOS
In most languages, it falls on a compiler to provide for tail-recursion optimization and not all compilers will do that in all their optimization modes. As I understand Scheme, a Scheme system is not compliant with the language specification *unless* it optimizes tail-recursion.
Piracy, for consumers, IS A GOOD THING. The more consumers pirate, the more media companies will be FORCED to innovate and adapt. If the media companies were entirely in control, we'd probby be forced to listen to only the 10 most-popular songs on Clearchannel, watch reality tv with 1/2 the time being commercials, and call an 800 number to ask permission for every time we use the media.
-fobjc-gc
Enable garbage collection (GC) for Objective-C objects. The
resulting binary can only be used on Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard) and
later systems, due to additional functionality needed in the (NeXT)
Objective-C runtime.
When the -fobjc-gc switch is specified, the compiler will replace
assignments to instance variables (ivars) and to certain kinds of
pointers to Objective-C object instances with calls to interceptor
functions provided by the runtime garbage collector. Two type
qualifiers, "__strong" and "__weak", also become available. The
"__strong" qualifier may be used to indicate that assignments to
variables of this type should generate a GC interceptor call, e.g.:
__strong void *p;// assignments to 'p' will have interceptor calls
int *q;// assignments to 'q' ordinarly will not ...
(__strong int *)q = 0;// this assignment will call an interceptor
Conversely, the "__weak" type qualifier may be used to suppress
interceptor call generation:
__weak id q;// assignments to 'q' will not have interceptor calls
id p;// assignments to 'p' will have interceptor calls ...
(__weak id)p = 0;// suppress interceptor call for this assignment
I've been meaning to pick up a TV/video-in device, and looks like it's a good time to get one before the manufacturers have to cripple them to sell them here. Anybody got a suggestion for a brand or model?

I've still got iTunes 4.9, and the 10.4.3 update left it alone.
That's not exactly anonymous. The anonycat server knows your IP address and what page you're browsing. The whole point of the TOR, I2P, etc. anonymizing network systems is that no other entity on the network can determine both your IP address and what content on the network you're using.

Today in P2P

I've tried it. The i2p network is small, so the anonymity set is only around 150 people or so, and bittorrent over i2p is slow. Faster than freenet, since I've never gotten freenet to work right, but *far* slower than over plain old internet.
It's just not ready for use yet. Looks promising, but it's not there yet.

It's too late. Oddworld: Munch's Oddysee had Sobe machines that you could buy energy drinks from to restore your health. Made no damn sense.
I'm pretty sure it would be a 900 number.
Confirmed, that's in the manpage on 10.4.3:
// assignments to 'p' will have interceptor calls // assignments to 'q' ordinarly will not
... // this assignment will call an interceptor
// assignments to 'q' will not have interceptor calls // assignments to 'p' will have interceptor calls
... // suppress interceptor call for this assignment

No need to worry about stealth iTunes update.
