"It might be much easier to start a new country than it is to fix an existing one."

@jedlickavit talks micronation-building on our final podcast of 2023...

Wrist games NEED to make a comeback. There should be a wrist form-factor handheld console solely dedicated to these types of games. They don't need to be full-fledged games. Just have them be simple minigames as companions to full console or PC games, something like the Dreamcast VMU or the Japan-only Sony PocketStation and have it interact with a console or PC via Bluetooth, USB, or micro-SD cards.

Just please don't add any botnet features like GPS or cellular communication.

Nintendo Switch and Nintendo 3DS cartridges use NAND flash for storage , not mask ROMs. Like all Flash memory, they "leak" charge over time and eventually lose data.

The Switch and 3DS card reader tells game cards to "refresh" themselves periodically. gbatemp.net/threads/nintendo-s

But, some users are reporting cartridges already dying, especially ones they haven't used for years. I wonder which of mine already don't work.

Just a reminder that you don't own any data you can't back up. Buying physical cartridges and game cards isn't enough if they're using technology that inevitably deteriorates over time.

Honestly, I would love to add pre-rendered cutscenes to the game. It would be a great way to experience the alternate universe where the Nintendo 64 actually had a CD drive.

I still can't believe that this is running on the same engine as the N64 game. It almost feels like an early Xbox 360 game in some areas.

I wish all misanthropes would just practice what they preach and kill themselves.

BREAKING FEDIVERSE NEWS: FireFish is KILL after furry Kainoa/ThatOneCalculator in typical furry fashion, all but abandoned the project. Frustrated developers are starting a new project called "Catodon" due to stagnation and a dissatisfaction with Kainoa as a project leader.

Essentially you'll have to upgrade your jank FireFish instance to Catodon if you want something newer.

Why wasn't I aware of this until now? OOT PC Port now supports 3DS models and you can toggle between the two at any time.

Tucker Carlson Ep. 60 "Is the lesson of the Covid disaster that we should give its architects more power? Bret Weinstein on the WHO’s plans for you."

Clear and well spoken concerns about big pharma, the WHO and the oligarchy in general working against the bulk of humanity.

Apparently the same thing also happened with Steven Hawking. He seemed to have actually died back in the 80s and was replaced with an actor until his "official death".

Microsoft may as well buy this project out they've already done all the work https://wubuntu.org/

What happened to the REAL Joe Biden? The person claiming to be Joe Biden is clearly an actor. Just look at the fucking earlobes. It's not the same person who was vice-president during the Obama administration.

Makes me wonder if there are any other doubles we should know about.

I HATE that hobbyniggas (tabletop RPG niggas for example) use discord servers instead of a forum to host information, homebrew work, and resources. I hate it so much. Even using a subreddit wouldn't be as bad because that at least is viewable and searchable without having to make an account.

The world used to have no cities. City-states then started appearing. City-states led to countries. Now there is a global government. Hopefully, countries will break into small villages again when everything collapses.

Iceland is not a free country, but maybe small places are more likely of having peace if everyone has similar values and backgrounds and everybody knows each other.
