I’ve never seen a YouTuber that actually meets that description though

People really trust it? Like it’s been so wrong on things for me, I automatically skip to search results past it. Why bother anymore

I really need to try to play it. My computer lab at school growing up was lacking. We had Oregon trail, chopper commando, etc.

I haven’t played a ton of old games besides doom, Age of empires, etc.

Although I played Warcraft and original counterstrike at a pc bong once.

My main experience with older pc games is like 2002-2007, when I finally was able to save and buy my own PC.

I don’t know, I got it for $2 at a thrift shop this weekend. It’s a compaq for sure. I got it to go with my early 90s IBM mouse. I got so excited I forgot to research it. I will definitely be doing that after work

It’s a case for a raspberry pi zero 2. It’s the retroflag GPI case.

It runs full Linux/retropie that you have to install and set up. You have to get the pi/sd card/batteries yourself. But i prefer it to the cheap TikTok ones. The support is really good and they’ve sent me spare parts

The new version can use a dock for your TV

So many sounds. Including you’ve got Mail

Yeah I already called them out a couple weeks ago. There is a rightwing disinformation campaign going on against sources the left trusts, including Wikipedia, especially since they’ve been in a fight with the administration.

Reading content. I’m more of a lurker compared to most users.

But why do we need interactive crap for everything. Comments and etc for articles are the worst. Not everybody needs to hear you, sometimes you’ve just gotta take in information and process it.

Like I literally Maintain my own fleet of apps that give me just the article body images, in a sorted feed. No ads. No links. Nothing. Even the links to other articles, etc in the middle of an article is too much. I hate that shit. Modern web page design is garbage and unreadable.

I don’t need to know stacy from North Dakota’s thoughts on an article because 99% of the time it’s toxic anyways. Or misinformed.

I think I wrote this. This is my philosophy for how the web should be. Social media shouldn’t be the main Highway of the web. And the internet should be more of a place to visit, not an always there presence.

We should pass that cost on to Israel

Speaking of which, I just did a fresh install of retropie for the first time since 2023 and am sad to see there are AI features in retroarch turned on by default. Wtf. I’m playing games on a pi zero. What do I need AI for?

Handhelds are so cool. I’d love to have a game gear one day

I don’t see the point of compressing the games. They’re so small (except my 300 gig psx collection) that I can fit every game from Atari- Gameboy advance on an 32 gb sd card + OS and a couple psx games. The internet thing kind of sucks, but I also don’t want to store all that data on my device like my pi.

There is a pattern to which teleport guy to talk to in the right order. I can never remember it and it’s always the most frustrating part.

Yeah I would never harm a beloved Gameboy. I also collect gameboys and their games. I restore them

Thank you for answering. I look forward to trying some challenges, but I’m kinda an easy difficulty gamer myself

Thanks for the explanation, I wasn’t completely sure how it worked because it seems magical. I tried my best with an explanation, but it’s all very new to me

Uhhh I’m not sure, this case is a kit that comes with everything but the pi, batteries, and sd card.

As far as software, I just roll a retropie image that I customize with Gameboy splash screens, etc.

I’m more experienced building retropies into a Nintendo cartridge. I used to make a ton of them during the pandemic. I eventually made my own retropie image that was all set up for mass producing.

Oh I’ll be doing that. What’s the craziest achievement you’ve seen or completed?
