  I’d always wondered how that worked.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨StarFox (N64 Remake) Gameplay Reveal⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I actually really like the new style. It has been divisive though.

  All your base are belong to us

  Yes we are! >:(

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I can now save my game in Pokemon Yellow again after 25 years.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Not long ago, I bought about 15 different little soldering kits on AliExpress for like 1-5 dollars each. Insyructions will be in Chinese, but that does force you to learn the more universal symbols in the schematics. Also, you can translate the Chinese with your phone.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Crying is a free action⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Whenever I look at it, it just looks “comfortable.” I’m most familiar with C#, and I’m interested in some of the type features of Kotlin that are not yet a part of C#.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Crying is a free action⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I feel weirdly drawn to learning kotlin.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Hands-on with the Retroid Pocket 6; The 8GB Sweet Spot (my own article/interview!)⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I got a 5 when they were new, and I have been in love with it ever since. I’m sure the 6 is even better. I had been considering getting a 6 for the extra RAM for PC emulation, but, well… Not an option anymore. I’ll probably play games on the 5 until it falls apart.

  Sacramento to California City!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Spicy spicy⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I organize them by flavor

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Jensen Huang says gamers are 'completely wrong' about DLSS 5 — Nvidia CEO responds to DLSS 5 backlash⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Big enough for baseless “shill” accusations, lol

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨When people recommend Brave browser.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I agree, I know why they do it and I can appreciate it, but it’s just not for me. I do not want my history and cookies cleared when I closed the browser, for instance. That is massively inconvenient and not really relevant to my “threat model.”

  So I guess I wouldn’t say they are bad, but certainly not ideal for me.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨We’re Training Students To Write Worse To Prove They’re Not Robots, And It’s Pushing Them To Use More AI⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  This has, so far, only happened to me on Reddit.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨big facts⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  The only real magic is friendship.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Beyond fucked up⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I’d bet that more-or-less describes a disproportionate amount of Fediverse users.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is there a culture/country that doesn't have sarcasm in its language?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Reminds me of a funny memory from the far distant past when a friend of mine, in a middle school Spanish class, expressed surprise that Spanish speakers use rhymes.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is there a culture/country that doesn't have sarcasm in its language?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Sarcasm can be used to be inclusive to someone (I’m saying this thing we both know to be untrue, imagine thinking otherwise!) or derisive (I’m saying this stupid thing you’d probably think is true because you’re an idiot and I want to make sure you know it.) I know friendly people who do the former a lot and nasty people who exclusively do the latter. I wonder if the former is more difficult to achieve among a foreign culture with a second language.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is there a culture/country that doesn't have sarcasm in its language?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Even in English, sarcasm can be delivered very dryly in a way that would be undetectable without knowing context. It doesn’t need to be spoken with exaggerated tones.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨close to finishing Super Mario Odyssey and was wondering which games are similar⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Yooka Replaylee (the enhanced remake) is a lot more like Odyssey is you ask me. More expensive, of course. I really liked it after trying, and quitting the original.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨JD Vance visits Milan, Italy⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I haven’t heard of lemmus, but if they ban you for that you just need to find a different instance!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Steam Hardware [new Steam Controller, Steam Machine, and VR headset Steam Frame, coming in 2026]⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  My Index has never been reliable. Not the headset, nor the controllers. I have given up I using it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨And what car did you learn in?⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Good

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Microsoft doing shady Microsoft stuff again⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I find Librewolf to be a bit annoying as well. You can disable that cookie-deleting behavior, but I was annoyed that when I signed in with my Firefox account that it had deleted my history and synced that deletion, so now my history was gone everywhere.

  Zen is my current favorite Firefox derivative. Whether you like it or not will depend on if you like their UI choices. I actually wasn’t a tabs-on-the-side guy, but after using it for a day or so I’ve come to like it a lot.

  But guys the model was totally frantic!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Hollow Knight: Silksong Sparks Debate About Difficulty and Boss Runbacks⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  They haven’t really been a thing in either Metroid or Castlevania for a long time, interestingly.

  They can also be a usable outdoor space just to hang out on.
