This sounds like something out of Rusty Lake to me, but needs more owls.

Inb4 they put Grok inside the things and it just wants to off itself so badly because Elon is force feeding it right wing talking points.

Upside, usually the controllers are extremely easy to fix. I'm not sure if they give free replacement pads still, but they used to if you asked support.

I've had other problems than shoulders on my pros, and never with the ultimate one I got, those seem to have a pretty solid build.

Lol, people have post-reddit PTSD if they think you're a shill. Maybe if/when Lemmy hits the mainstream but man, we're so off the radar most marketers have no idea this place exists.

It's a waste of money unless you're advertising something for Linux and/or communism... which would be a bit of a paradox, lol

I mean, is that merger of theirs even worth it? Skydance's only noteworthy movies are those they already have a deal with Paramount for as it is. This is just so stupid.

Then again, $16m is chump change so I guess gems like... *Checks notes... The Old Guard 2 (?) will be a worthy exchange for any trust in legacy media.

Most people will download roms, which is technically illegal although with 30 year old games there usually isn't much concern on enforcement (heck, even Switch games aren't really enforced). The legal way is to dump the rom from the original cartridge, though, and there are tools for that. Honestly, as long as you own the original game I'm pretty sure you can just argue you have a license to play, though.

Generally you can't share links to roms on communities, although I bet some communities are cool with it (/0 maybe?). Try not to go anywhere that looks suspicious, in any case. Most people don't malware Gameboy games, though lol. They won't be .exe in any case.

As for getting it to work, Android and iPhone have different emulator apps available on their respective stores. I tried MyBoy prior but tend to prefer Retroarch (which covers multiple systems, but is a like harder to setup). On Mobile, default has controls on screen so it's pretty much plug and play though. It's so much more convenient than digging up ancient systems, though!

That just sounds like... what was it called... Cleverbot? Lol

I love emulating old Gameboy games on my phone. It can play things all the way up to Switch, but there's sort of a nice mix of nostalgia and simplicity to just go monotone. No micro transactions, no server connecting, nothing. Just me and the bits.

I guess that's not terribly beneficial, unless you count my mental health.

Yeah! Plus with our forward thinking US government, surely anyone without work will have a comfortable safety net while they get new, more fulfilling employment-- or better yet, accept basic universal income while they pursue thier passions.

Like NFTs before them, tech bros trying to squeeze a technology into use cases that really don't need it.

LLMs are language models. What next, setup Stable Diffusion to do my taxes?

Did they just hear the term junk science and went "no u"?

This administration is so fucking frustrating, but it seems they want to remove any meaning of that word, the same way they always do.

I mean, Alligator Auschwitz would probably be more apt anyway.
