  Man, if I could download the experience of having eaten a pizza without actually having to digest it… I might.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨GOG seemingly shares that they are considering physical PC 'big box' games. Maybe?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Not to take away form your point at all, but optical media degrades, too. Usually much slower, though. In the long run, regular transferal between backups is the only option. ~In the long-long run, we will succeed in preserving nothing and all traces of our existence will be obscured!~

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨End of an era?⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah, it’s popular to mod systems like PSX and Saturn with a disc read emulator so you can load ISO files from solid state media like SD cards.

  Well, not everyone posting here is human.

  You will be coerced to tolerate it!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Answer that, ye handsome homos!!1!!!1!!!⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I think it’s more like “unashamed.”

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Foragers⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m not sure what that means, but I will forever keep you in my prayers!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Foragers⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  If you don’t cook them, yes.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Conservative values⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I want your /srv/stash folder

  god doesn’t exist, fundie 🙄

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Hasan Piker, Cenk Uygur Denied Entry to UK Over Palestine Support⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I understand and feel your frustration. I don’t think he’s a bad guy, though. And highlighting stories like this is only good, don’t you think?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I love the 3DS 3D effect. I had that shit on 100% of the time, and have missed it dearly.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I love retro gaming so much, and there are enough games out there from decades past to last a lifetime. (This, of course, depends on continued availability to this library via unofficial channels.)

  There also are a vast quantity of newer indie games which don’t require high end hardware. I’d love to see a renewed interest in smaller scale projects.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨YouTube now⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I’d always wondered how that worked.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨StarFox (N64 Remake) Gameplay Reveal⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

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

  Yes we are! >:(

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I can now save my game in Pokemon Yellow again after 25 years.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ 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 ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ 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 ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ 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!)⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ 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.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why is us rail travel so expensive?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Sacramento to California City!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Spicy spicy⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨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 ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Big enough for baseless “shill” accusations, lol

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨When people recommend Brave browser.⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨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 ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

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

  The only real magic is friendship.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Beyond fucked up⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨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?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨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?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨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.
