I wonder why Nintendo is always the prime target for hacking. Their devices are always hacked, and very quickly.
You would hope that Nintendo would have very tight security barriers in place, but everyday I wake up, I hear more console hacking news.

I wonder where you're getting that news because 'cuase hackers still haven't got non flawed switches to be hacked and have declared the OLED models to be unhackable like post FAT model PS3s before the breakthrough that let it happen on all models.

Places like Logic-Sunrise, YouTube, and maybe PSXTools.

So in theory it could run Doom?
Doom now runs on the Alarmo, for real this time.

Be kinda funny if custom themes for Sony games were put on here.

But no, I just want a Metroid theme. Happy with the Zelda and Mario ones, but I need a good, creepy Metroid Fusion theme.

They managed to get Sonic to show on the Alarmo. I always wondered what will happen when you get up.

    @IC_, alright
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    I'm glad
  • IC_ @ IC_:
    Are you doing alright?
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @IC_, that was a response to what you said
  • IC_ @ IC_:
    I know, but I wanted to ask you as well.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @IC_, Yeah I guess
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    Mediocre at worst
  • IC_ @ IC_:
    I guess that's still not the worst.
    For a long time it used to be, that whenever anyone asked me how I'm doing, I could only ever give negative answers.

    @IC_, btw I made a bluesky account a while ago but i'm not yet used to it bc most of the content I get is not of my interest
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @IC_, thats why i'm staying in Twitter
  • IC_ @ IC_:
    I haven't ever used either of them, besides viewing specific content while logged-out.
  • IC_ @ IC_:
    I am not sure what to think of Bluesky. Some people are overly positive about it, some are overly negative. It popped out of nowhere when seemingly everyone who dumped Twitter had already moved to Mastodon or similar federated services.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @IC_, not liking/doing what everyone else likes/does sort of makes me feel bad
  • IC_ @ IC_:
    I still don't get what the deal with Bluesky is, I heard it was supposed to be federated and possible to self-host like Mastodon as well, but somehow I haven't seen or heard anyone doing that. Yet people complain about community and moderation issues on the official Bluesky instance. I really don't get what's going on and how it's supposed to work.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @IC_, Yeah most of the posts I get are either about polítics or selfies and all that

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @IC_, although I just asked on the official subreddit if there is any feed(s) with the content I like
  • IC_ @ IC_:
    Myself, I have no interest in using (having an account on) such a social media website. People are often surprised that I don't have any social media and none of the most popular IM services, especially in real life. But I continue to stand against it, even when so many people have complained about it. Even if it makes my life a bit harder.

    I don't bother with social media.

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @anotherthing, being online is one of my few ways of entertainment since I will be murdered/kidnapped if I go outside while alone

  • IC_ @ IC_:
    At some point I should probably create my own blog website, so my blogs can reach more people outside of GBAtemp. Long-form blogs are much nicer in my opinion compared to this modern "microblogging".
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @IC_, I ran out of ideas for blog entries and thus I just make profile posts
  • IC_ @ IC_:
    I still have lots of ideas, but it unfortunately does take a lot more effort to write a good blog entry with photos than to write a simple post.
  • IC_ @ IC_:
    Once I finish this project I've been working on for months, I'll hopefully do a blog entry about it.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @IC_, I have been starting making a game, I will record a gameplay of the battle system once it's relatively done

    Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty: @IC_, hint: it's like this game...
