Fuck Nintendo

Its not a competition

Diy is a lifestyle

It’s garbage for learning a language but it’s phenomenal for memorizing and gameifying learning nouns and verbs. I’ve been going through the Japanese lessons one jump at a time and it’s been great to brush up on all the words I’ve forgotten.

I hook it up to TVs all the time! It looks great on my 1080p projector on a 95" screen and perfectly acceptable on my girlfriends ginormous 4K TV.

My Leaf can handle itself on the highway and it’s the perfect amount of self driving that I want. I also didn’t need to pay half the price of the leaf for the privilege.

this is an advertisement.

I have been enjoying the original console I designed and built myself running a raspberry pi 5 and a fully built and compiled retropie that can crank out some dolphin and redream with full 60fps. I have plenty 90s gaming I need to catch up on.

For everything moderately modern, I have a steam deck. If it doesn’t or cannot run on my retropie or my deck then I’ll wait till the next hardware refresh. If it takes half a decade, all the better.

Who do you think you are? No one cares. ACAB, and religion is bullshit.

The important thing is that you feel superior to everyone. that’s all that matters.

Triggered 🤡

You feel good typing all that schlock out?

Yikes! That’s just about the worst case scenario. It’s maddening the shortcuts companies play to save literally pennies. Sounds like you’ve at least solved the problem so hopefully the replacement and all that work is fruitful!

what the bootlicking shit is this?

Yeah but that’s FUTURE you’s problem, not current you, so it’s totally fine!

Sucks to be you then.

Linux booted on a machine from 1971.

Not a lot of updates in 2024 unfortunately. Is it dead?

QEMU is para-virtualization at near native speeds and supports GPU pass through for ya vidyagames.

I did a quick look and it doesn’t look like the switch is directly on the motherboard so most likely there’s a JST plug or something similar with wire leads that then hook into the switch and/or a daughter board. If it’s just two wires into a JST plug you can replace the switch with anything similar or if you wanna be ghetto about it just touch the two wires together to make a short.

You can probably get the exact switch if you look hard enough since almost everything but the exterior shell will be commodity components.

Good luck!
