@noyoushutthefuckupdad This is why I only use the fediverse on my computer and absolutely refuse to use this on my phone. I think social media isn't as addictive when you take smartphones (or even dumb phones via SMS-posts) out of the equation.

@coolboymew What ever happened to top loading disc trays? They were much more reliable.

Debian packaging sucks. Aptly should make it easier; and it does once you figure out all the command, but the documentation is okay but not great and the error messages are absolute fucking garbage.

@thestrongest This has been the discussion of every person in the emulation scene for at least the past decade. We've already lost PSP/Vita/Wii/Xbox, and the 3DS will meet the same fate soon.

Archive, reverse-enginerer, and steal as much server-side code as you can. It's the only way history will be preserved.

@ArdanianRight We don't need any hand holding when walkthroughs exist.

@coolboymew Literally the one time when I actually have actual cheese curds, I'm out of fries and had to use tater tots instead.

@hideki Blank DVDs are pretty cheap these days. Almost nobody uses them except for giving/selling recordings at events. As for modern DVD drives reading them, it depends on if it can read standard CDs as a VCD is basically an ordinary CD with an MPEG-1 file burnt onto it. I think most of them do given that the external DVD drive I bought recently can read them. It can even read CD-i discs.

@hideki Why are you using VCD? That's like the worst digital video format ever.

@thestrongest They have "base" sprites which are basically templates to work off of. It shouldn't be too bad unless you are 100% asset flipping.
