Re: [Trisquel-users] i'm going to buy a Nintendo 64 lads.

Wiktionary suggests that the meaning I interpreted is one meaning of "lads"  
found in Ireland, Northern England, and Geordie:

(Note: this just applies "lads", not "lad". It looks like "lad" always refers  
to a boy or young man. A bit weird, but hey, language is weird sometimes.)
