    Comment by 'PityOnU' in 'Had an idea for a rhythm game keyboard, would it even work?'

    I had a couple of colleagues create USB keyboard emulators like this during undergrad. It's pretty straightforward. You can do it!

    Comment by 'PityOnU' in 'don't skate at church'

    Grinding on curbs ends up leaving a lot of residue and making them look not too great. And while skateboarding in a parking lot isn't really a big deal, I think they are well within their rights to want to not have anyone hanging out near their unattended vehicles for a long time for no reason...

    Comment by 'PityOnU' in 'Mario 3D World is meh at best'

    3D World is an awesome party game, but it lacks the substance of a mainstream Mario single-player game. Because of that, it definitely feels phoned-in, especially when you compare it to 3D Land, which was released on 3DS around the same time.

    Eh, honestly, the gen 2 originals were peak Pokemon. They added a ton of features in that gen (including time of day, breeding, hidden stats, shinies, 100 new Pokemon, berries, 2 new types). Even had the entire region from the previous game as a post-game unlock! Since then, each new game has...

    So much salt here, lol Listen, my children: Pokemon is a cute, simple, small game. That's its appeal. It is meant, first and foremost, to be accessible to children. The main character is canonically 10 years old. Gamefreak, as a company, has also repeatedly demonstrated that it is not a...

    Comment by 'PityOnU' in 'A female colleague has called me doll and asked me how I was doing (on Whatsapp)'

    Yeah, kinda weird to think about, but being fat is pretty much the most unattractive thing possible. When it comes to looks, statistically speaking, most everyone is sitting at or around average. So just don't be fat and, boom, you've got it made in the romance department (assuming you are...

    Comment by 'PityOnU' in 'Attention all ROM dumpers: Stop naming your ROMs like this.'

    If you are using the names from the generally accepted ROM naming databases and still having issues, then the issue is not with the filenames, but with your scraper/frontend. I ended up giving up on all the frontends out there (included the paid one - LaunchBox) because they are all shit in...

    Comment by 'PityOnU' in 'Attention all ROM dumpers: Stop naming your ROMs like this.'

    Lots of arguing ITT, but the "correct" way to name (as well as verify ROMs) is to use a database such from No-Intro or Redump with a tool such as RomCenter. The databases contain all of the "correct" names for the ROM files (at least, what is agreed upon by "the scene" and most probably any...

    Comment by 'PityOnU' in 'Don't regret for the rest of you life!'

    Seems like you have a good idea of where you and your family stand in the grand scheme of things. Just try to stay confident and keep making the decisions you know need to be made. It'll suck in the meantime, but if you just keep slowly plugging away, things really will work out eventually...

    Don't go looking for romantic partners when others can influence who you pick :)

    Eh, not really. As you get older, you realize life is full of nuance that bullet points don't necessarily capture. Made it as short as I could!

    Comment by 'PityOnU' in 'Don't regret for the rest of you life!'

    @Silent_Gunner That's a difficult situation to be in. Sorry you're having to deal with that. In my younger years, while also still being reliant on/living with my parents, I dated someone they didn't approve of. It got to the point that I had to pretend I had broken up with them, while...

    Comment by 'PityOnU' in 'Don't regret for the rest of you life!'

    Neat post - glad the video inspired you to take action in your life! I agree with the sentiment as well. Not sure how old you are (or anyone else in the thread, for that matter), but I can certainly remember my younger years when I spent far too long silently obsessing over crushes. The reality...

    Comment by 'PityOnU' in 'This has got to be the most un-Linux thing I've seen in a VERY long time...'

    @Henx All good points, and I agree with you on the majority of them. As I said in my edit, I'm not blanket endorsing the privacy policies of any company. But! As you imply, all things are relative, and IMHO freaking out about Microsoft Windows telemetry is (for your average user) equivalent to...

    @Henx Lol, nice, you gottem'. Not sure where you are getting the idea that Windows is free, but it does indeed collect telemetry, which is all disclosed in those various lists you linked, and can also be disabled using tools that come with Windows. That third-party tool you listed only serves...

    Comment by 'PityOnU' in 'This has got to be the most un-Linux thing I've seen in a VERY long time...'

    So to summarize some of the complaints against Microsoft on this page: The Raspberry Pi Foundation has included a Microsoft-managed repo in their release of Raspbian, which is distributed free of cost. The repo in question is for VSCode, which is free and open source. I'm not sure the anger...

    Comment by 'PityOnU' in 'Say hello to your new MediCat seedbox...'

    The amount of processing power in these things nowadays is pretty nuts. I was very surprised to see that the RPi 4 can actually function as a Plex server - i.e. it can handle real-time HD transcoding without hardware acceleration. Nuts. How much did it end up costing you at the end of the day...
