I've spent my Labor Day weekend taking this messy Tower of Power™ and designing a case for it all to look like a mini media center PC/game console type thing. The wires at the top will be for the MiSTer's LED buttons, when they get here.

I'm very excited for tomorrow's Direct!
Hope Nintendo is not like: "The Legend of Zelda - Ocarina of Time Remaster... with Farming sim and 1st person mode!"
"And look! Your weapons breaks! 🫨🫨🫨"
"Cure Ganon with the power of friendship!"
"Play as Link with pink hair! 🫨🫨🫨"

Well... That didn't last long. I guess I can't just really adapt to Linux after all...

Sure it sucks at times, but it's easier to fix than Linux.

yeah and you do not need to build from scratch each little bit of tool you need. was upong a time when even a notepad needed a lot of commands to get it working.

I can never get Windows to "just work" and use Linux (openSUSE Leap, Qubes OS) as main OS. Many people have the opposite experience.

OS debates are moot. Use whatever works best for you and have fun!
i wonder why nintendo never really returned to wii era type music

I feel like Switch was devoid of music due to how quick it was to load into each of the applets, making it so you would likely spend less time in them.

Sure, that leaves no excuse for things like Mii Maker/eShop/Album that would do very well with music, considering you're definitely meant to take your time there, but a lot of the time, I'd imagine applets would be some 5 seconds of music abruptly stopped by some totally different music.

Still, I would love to experience an alternate universe where Switch (2) had Internet Settings music. :sad:

It had soul, something Nintendo lost in 2015
Very much recommend this if you enjoy writing:

Current competition is closing today, but the next one is pretty soon in November. Only £10 to enter and a chunk of that supports wildlife conservation, so it's a solid cause.

It's a pun on the Blue-Footed Booby, and the fact that a consolation prize is commonly known as a booby prize :teach:
Hello, not a good conversation starter but uh...
Anyone like Mega Man?
no more ED ads, this place is almost unrecognizable now
Got myself a joystick. Absolutely loved this color, works with phones, PC and switch and there was an option to come with this phone clip. Loving it.

In the years, I've opened up devices up, first time something like this happened.
