Long ago, I lived in an apartment, and they once sent out notices informing tenants of an annual suite inspection.

Except it said 'Annul Suite inspection Notice' one time, and it continued on as a meme for years after. 'That's why the rent is so low', etc.

I started making a 'Mega-X-Vania' framework for Click Team Fusion 2.5. Started with me working to get dashing and wall jumping working, then it just kept going. That's where I've been. Anyway, I'll retreat back into hobbyist developer land again.

I'm still here, but back on Twitter so i can needlessly argue with people Alpha17x over there as well.

I want Sega to do FPGA re-releases of their old consoles. That would be amazing. Hell even a new run of some of the games.

I think back to how interesting the Original Xbox was, how amazing the 360 was. I suppose change has to start somewhere and I hope to see them get back on a track that makes everyone excited about them again. I can't think of a single person my social sphere that's talked about their xbox in 10yrs

The ROG XBox is more exciting than the Switch 2. Unfortunately from my perspective both companies have kind of taken a dump on the good will of their customer bases. Nintendo for charging people for the same product repeatedly, and Microsoft for just letting things rot.

Maybe down the line truly 'made-for' games will prove it's worth, but for now it's not even distinguishable from it's predecessor.

Mario Kart World would look the same if not for a few missable things that used the new GPU just for the sake of being and to claim it does and the 'Enhanced' games are like charging people to use what would be 'Optimal' on a PC.

Having seen it in person now. I'd say the Switch 2 is more like Switch 1.3. A modded Switch with higher clocks can hit much of it's performance outside of higher resolution, which is barely relevant due to most games' aesthetics. So much of the boost we're seeing now can be obtained via software.

The switch2 is available in massive abundance in my area. The nearest Walmart has 8 units of each bundle in the display case, Bestbuy had some. Even a drugstore we have; London Drugs which has an electronics section, had some.

Don't know how that bodes for anything. In the end it's a Switch Pro.

It takes a bit of adjustment time but it's completely viable now.

Proton has made a vast majority of the gaming argument void. And windowsb does a lot of useless (to the user) backend shit that is not present so you get a massive performance boost there.

I've been using Linux for about a week now. The last time I tried to daily drive it was about 6 years ago.

The experience is massively improved. A lot of the time if you need a windows only app there's a guide or an install script to just do it for you.

I'll always think that if the Virtual Boy had been designed to use a head strap along with, or instead of the stand, and perhaps featured filters to change the color of the light. It would not have failed. I remember using it at a demo kiosk and thinking it was amazing, but also very uncomfortable.

PCB design is both less complicated but also just as complicated as I always thought it was. I made a proximity alarm in highschool, and then never touched it again, now I'm testing carrier boards.

Guaranteed? No. But entirely within the realm of possibility and realization.

Combine that with the fact that an SNES game development suite is under active development by someone with a proven track record, there's some real potential for some awesome actual Super CD games in the next year or so.

There's at least one all-in-one reproduction system in development as an experiment to see if it can be done, but the potential for an actual CD addon that connects via the expansion port is realizable dream.

The modding community has reached a point of understanding with how the SNES CD (Nintendo PlayStation / Nintendo Super CD) worked, and the loader rom has been found. So a functioning device is a very real possibility.

A lot of people left Twitter for this place for political reasons, which is fine, I didn't care and found it ready enough to get whole topics muted in a few seconds. I left because the feed was completely messed up. Like showing me week old tweets as if new, or not showing things from my follows.

And the Mega SG barely existed before they seemingly stopped on that one forever.

Meld Studio has basic elements that make a good amount of the stream layout stuff I used to do pointless. I like it, a lot of that stuff I'd make, wondering why it wasn't natively a part of OBS.

IG stories are annoying when you first start using them.

Also; Why can you do 3D depth maps on Facebook but not IG when IG is supposed to be the fancy image platform.

A 32 inch monitor stacked above a 22 inch pen input display for digital illustration and sculpting. Both screens are affixed to a dual-screen gas spring monitor arm.  They are affixed via grommet to a basic computer desk with a keyboard and mouse resting on a felt pad.

Here's my astonishing set-up. The rest of the room is bare and empty because I use it for VR art and yes, games too. I'd make a pretty office but that's just more shit to get knocked over, ripped out, etc.

From a person who has never and will never break dance. I can't really say if she's 'amazing' but she's definitely more impressive than what the Olympics required of her.

TLDR: She basically minmaxed the Olympics and looked dumb as fuck, like an MMO char in mixed gear.

Because the way the Olmypics evaluates performance is both necessary and dumb as fuck at the same time. She could have done some shit people thought would look cool, there's video evidence that she can, but what was shown was targeted at the judges.

So I saw a video of that 'Raygun' lady from the Olympics, but break dancing outside of the Olympics. And she seems to actually be able to really do it. Reading past all the people making fun of her, her 'performance' was points targeted. Like someone making random squeals during Rockband.
