United my ass

I like to think of it as a cancer that makes them money

Permanent storage. Like the Wayback massive and internet archive I hope will fully take advantage of these. As well as project Gutenberg. So much else. I’ve been waiting for something like this for a long time

100% respect that decision. I wouldn’t do it my own self but I do want you to fully appreciate that game in your lifetime.

Know that I support your effort!

In my possession is a c64 with an actual c64 monitor. Doing know if it even works. Needs a good home

No freecell?

Damn was that really 2004?! Thought it was older in my head

… But the new game+ is the best part. You should get a save state that lets you play new game+ just so that you can finish a playthrough

None of those reasons are the reasons that were stated for removing it from devices by the manufacturers.

Okay but I have a usbc slot, speakers, stylus, and an audio jack all on the bottom of my new phone. It’s bullshit that they needed the room as evidenced by this 2025 phone.

It can also use an sdcard. Greedy fucking corporations just wanting you to repurchase stuff you already have.

Just bought a new phone that has an audio jack. Some of us refuse to “come around”. They can fit a stylus and an audio jack in this thing. Why did they remove the audio jack again? Not enough room? Bullshit

There are many many good reasons for developing the technology. It’s so bleeding edge though only some people will try it. Billionaires who don’t need to ask anyone else are some of the most likely people to be doing this.

But there have already been incredible strides made with some of the projects that have had human trials.

Where I think we all need to really put them under the spotlight is what do they do for the people who got these when the companies shit the bed? Whomever gets this tech needs to be taken care of. This isn’t something they should be allowed to walk away from if they don’t like the direction the research takes or if they just decide they no longer want to develop it. And think that line of responsibility is exactly at human trials .

If they start, they shouldn’t be allowed to stop.

Okay everyone, I’m intensely drunk so keep that caveat in mind.

"They say my life styyyyyle, is bad for my heaaalth

I’m a lost cause…

I’m so damaged beyond repair.

You have shattered my hopes…my dreams"

Apologies if the formatting is fucked. I tried.

I’m a lost cause.

Baby do r waste your time on me

You aren’t reading the meme correctly. It’s not a connection, is a coincidence.

It just says a thing ,that uses 500 mb of ram per instance, had become an industry standard. That’s the happy face. Hey I created a thing for myself but it got used so much it became a standard.

The second face is like oh shit, I did not make this efficient with its memory usage but now it’s standard and ram prices are terrible so the thing that was sparking joy, is now kind of a problem because its flaws now actually matter

I was going in a different direction myself. More in the vane of offering the leopard a second meal

I wish I smoked weed when I was much younger. It’s helped me think thinky thoughts that i never would have on my own but I think I really could have used them much earlier in my life.

That being said i have never been a big partier and have zero interest in acquiring any addictions so I might be an outlier fire my own advice.

Be safe even if you are doing dumb shit.

You should probably start lieing about that and taint the brand as much as possible. Probably won’t do much but we should all just start saying everywhere that is a great thing because crucial sucked anyways.

No but I do hold onto old electronics because I grew up with my grandparents and they had WW2 wartime rationing mentality about saving everything. Also my grandfather also an incredibly cheap bastards at times too

Not sure that leopards will be having a glorious meal is the appropriate symbolism but feel free to give me a better one

I might upgrade to GabeCube from my current rig i7 6820k from 10 years ago, but still a year or 2 away from replacing this rig.

I also hope my RAM survives. Good luck friend! This rando from Lemmy wishes you the best (if I win a lottery I’ll buy you a new rig!)
