Protagonist of the NES game “Star Tropics” (and its equally-underrated sequel “Star Tropics: Zoda’s Revenge”.) The picture above is displayed at the end of the credits after beating the (first) game.

I’m disappointed they don’t have Mike Jones taking bananas out of his ears:

Just a suggestion, but you might want to update the lemm.ee community’s sidebar to say the community has moved and link to the new one. The “!Nerdcore@lemmy.zip” syntax should work just fine in the sidebar as well.

It’s just a cigarette and it cannot be that bad.

(Edited to link the song. I figured some folks would get the reference.)

(I was joking. I don’t think they’d actually ban you for not using “rule” in the title. I think the first 196 community, wherever it was, probably did actually take action for missing “rule” in the title, but I don’t know that that’s the case for this specific 196 community.)

No “rule” in title = b&

I’m not sure I’ve ever worn a pair of pants that didn’t do that. That’s just something pants do. To the point that nobody is going to see that and think you’ve got a boner. (Unless you do, of course, but even then probably only if you’re in a position that wouldn’t ordinarily produce that wrinkle/bulge or your boner is visible in a different spot than that wrinkle/bulge or something.) I wouldn’t worry about it. Even if you do some fancy tailoring to address it, I think what you’ll end up with will look worse than it would if you did nothing.

Looks like if Banner half-assed a Donald Trump trap. Only thing it’s missing is a “hamburders here” sign.

As he stands unresponsive you close your trunk and pull away. The tatters of his mind don’t even wonder if it was real or imagined. It matters not.

He seeks solice in drink and shortly thereafter narcotics, but no anesthetic suffices. Even unconsciousness provides no escape from the grip of that of which he should never have known.

Perhaps not even death will.

I’m in the middle of my first playthrough of Morrowind right now. Maybe I should go find a mod that makes the graphics worse. Maybe one that limits the resolution to 480p and makes everything monochrome wireframe with a viewing distance of just two or three meters.

I… wait… really?

No, really

Well oooookay then.

I mean, I guess this dating sim isn’t any more weird than their TTRPG, “Feast of Legends”.

Yeah, I don’t think this needs an NSFW at all.

Not OP, but I’ve done this to my Switch.

• Only works if you have a first-run Switch that is susceptible to Fusee-Gelee. Or if there’s a modchip involved, but a) adding a modchip is really fiddly and b) I don’t know how much of the following applies if you have a modchip.
• There are ways that don’t require modifying a Joycon. There are “jigs” that you can buy or even 3d print if you’ve got access to a printer. Those slide down into the Joycon rail to connect a couple of pins necessary to do the whole homebrew thing. There are also paperclip and tinfoil methods that… aren’t 100% safe.
• No, the Joycons don’t need to be jailbroken or anything. The modification OP is referring to, if you go that direction, is strictly a hardware mod to connect (electrically) a couple of pins inside the Joycon that connect to pins on the Switch (at the bottom of the “rail”).
• I’m not sure what’s running on what OP has in the photo there but it looks like either Linux or Android. Either way, it probably isn’t an x86_64 emulator. But one thing you can do with homebrew is to run a (slightly-tweaked) “copy” of the factory-installed Switch OS from the SD card. If you’re doing that, then everything retains full functionality. The dock works fine and the Joycons work exactly the same with one minor caveat: when switching between the main/system and “copy”/“EmuEMMC” OS’s, you’ll need to re-pair.
• No idea whether x86_64 emulation is an option and if so what kind of performance you could expect.
• Performance and experience for Switch games is perfect!
• One risk is bricking (obviously) which is a pretty negligible if you back everything up the way the guides tell you to ahead of time. (In fact, it’s very arguable that homebrewing your Switch actually makes your Switch more resistant to bricking because you have more options with regard to fixing it yourself.)
• Another risk is getting banned from the e-shop and all online interaction. Basically if Nintendo detects you’re running homebrew (for instance, if your Switch is online and communicating with Nintendo and reports to Nintendo that you have something installed that isn’t officially-lisenced Nintendo software/games) they’ll ban you from all online things. The Switch itself will still work fine for all offline interactions and any games on the device will continue to work as will physical game cartridges. But, as long as you only make modifications to the “copy”/“EmuEMMC” and set up some of the DNS blocking options that prevent your Switch from communicating with Nintendo’s servers (or just never connect to the internet from the EmuEMMC OS), you should be golden.
• Also, if you have a first-run Switch (that doesn’t require a modchip) there’s very little chance of voiding your warranty. If you need to send your Switch in for service, as long as you don’t send them a modded Joycon, jig, or SD card loaded with homebrew stuff, and as long as you don’t make any mods to the main OS, there’s no way for them to detect that you’ve modded it. The only downside is that if you send in a first-run Switch for service, it’s almost guaranteed they’ll replace the motherboard with one that isn’t hackable without a modchip.
• Oh, I guess one more risk I should mention. It’s possible your EmuEMMC will get corrupted randomly (at least that happened to me) and you won’t be able to boot into it again without setting it back up from scratch (from a (new or old) backup of the system OS). That will lose you any saved game data on your EmuEMMC. Though that can be mitigated by backing up your save games to the SD card on a regular basis. (I’ve learned my lesson.) That isn’t so much a risk for any games you play on the system OS (which you can boot into at any time trivially.)
• I don’t have any experience with the Steam Deck, so couldn’t speak to that. I love being able to mod Switch games, back up my saves, install emulators, etc on my Switch.

If you want to get homebrew on your Switch set up, you can start here. But of course, it only works for the earliest-released Switch runs. And you’ll need a computer or something to send a “payload” to your Switch to get booted into a homebrew environment.

Good luck!

That’s incredibly on-brand for Trump in so many ways.

I’m a sucker for an OP protagonist. I love Solo Leveling. Reincarnated as a Slime has some good moments. And of course DBZ is great.

Dissociate me, Mommy.

You know, OP, you’re right. Pikachu does rule.

You’re not wrong, but…

The arabic numererals we use in our primary base-10 system are very arbitrary. There’s no connection between the around-a-tree-around-a-tree numeral “3” we use to represent the number after the candy-cane-with-a-shoe numeral “2” and the concept of the number 3.

But it doesn’t have to be that way. What if the numerals in our base-60 system themselves followed a pattern.

One of the simpler and more straightforward ways of doing that (that might not work well in practice, at least not for hand-written numerals) would be just to make each numeral in our base-60 system be a vertical line of 6 marks, each either a dot or a dash. We could use that then to encode a single digit in our base-60 system using base-2 digits.

For instance:

 . .
 . .
 . _
 . .
 _ _
 . .

Would be (1*2^1)*60^1+(1*2^3+1*2^1)*60^0 = 2*60^1+10*60^0 = 120+10 = 130.

Viola! Base-60 with (handwave, mutter, qualify) only 2 numerals!

There are downsides to this as well. For instance, you’d have to not consider certain patterns valid. Six base-2 digits can encode numbers up to 63, so you’d just have to throw away the last four and say you’re not allowed to put a 60, 61, 62, or 63 in a single digit. (Also, we’d need language to differentiate between the base-2 digits and the base-60 digits in the same exact number system.)

Not the only way it could be approached, but it’s an option.
