That's a tough ask.
That's a tough ask.
I'm just bouncing ideas off and not sure if it works like that, but maybe you can try creating a teen account and link it to your main one.
Recently I noticed there's an option to let me link teen accounts(and other adults) under a family that lets them order but pay with the primary account.
Assuming teens won't be able to buy alcohol, perhaps those recommendations would go away too?
When it was my birthday she bought me a slice of cake which was nice though and gave me a little note.
Sounds like a small gift + a card/note might be a good idea then.
I would suggest something simple like a coffee card, but if you want to be mindful of caffeine intake for pregnant women then maybe an alternative like a box of caffeine-free tea that's soothing and calming? Or perhaps aromatherapy in the same vein if she's not allergic to scents?
Moms with small children are stressful enough on a good day let alone going through rough times, something soothing can hopefully make her day more endurable.
Plus a get well card(or something appropriate for the event) with a short hand-written note can go a long way.
Let's just say... that ship has sailed.
Don't worry, old millennials like us are probably quite familiar with l33t speak
There was this PC FMV game back in the early 90's where there's this woman doing all kinds of things that gets herself killed and all you do is flip the right switches at the right time and enter 3 digit codes.
One of the earlier games I had on a CD-ROM. Back then it wasn't a disc tray. You eject an entire disc jewelcase-like thing and put your cd inside the case and shove it back in like a floppy disk.
Buster wolf!
Wow thank you for reminding me this site exists!
dhmy has been around for quite some time. Probably been around longer than a good chunk of the folks here even. I have some stuff downloaded from them dating back to like 2003, albeit dmhy.net at the time.
While I cannot vouch for the validity of the contents hosted there now since I haven't been to the site for over a decade, if I have to look for something in this niche area I would definitely be willing to use the site. If anything I don't think the domains have changed hands since.
Maybe if you use the widely circulated ones.
I can imagine plenty of people will start(have been) dumping rental carts from ie. the library.
If those dumps loaded onto the mig are indistinguishable from the original and Nintendo starts banning those, they risk banning a lot of other legitimate players who also rented and played on those carts.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but it didn't use to be an issue to Nintendo because you had to install the xci and that was detectable. Now you can run the game off the cart directly.

You used Spirit Speak. You establish a connection to the netherworld.
On topic, when browsing deals subs and forums, seeing ATL will always make me think of Atlanta Airport.
My first thought is Black Mage
Huh. Interesting.
I lurk primarily on RFD and r/bapcsalescanada and they both use ATL regularly. I guess it's just not a very widely accepted acronym then.
If you nuke the entire thing, you can blame technical difficulties, dropping support for "legacy" products and whatnot.
Whereas if you only delete the offending content, it could mean:
When found out, it could be used against you for consciousness of guilt and trying to conceal it. Even if it doesn't amount to charges it could be a bad look for the company down the road; whereas you could just tank the hit right now for being a heartless CEO and it only goes to the pile of things Reddit is doing for IPO.
But let's say there's no crazy conspiracy behind and they're just trying to clean house. You can never be sure how wide spread it is, or if you can indeed remove everything. Most importantly, why would you even devote extra resources to finding and reviewing for something that adds little to no face value to the main product(s)? Might as well just nuke the whole thing and be done with.
I think you're right about SEO cluttering up searches with flash cart and also probably search engines becoming crappier in general. Everything I encountered so far has been telling me "no" and I had to look really hard to start finding traces of updating through game carts as far back as around 2019.
That said, the general consensus nowadays is still "no" since I guess they stopped doing it for newer firmwares as you suggested.
In any case we'll find out in due time as people start getting their hands on the flash cart and see how the cat and mouse plays out.
You could get creative with a premium account "A" where you can designate another person/account "B"(can be free account) with emergency access after a waiting period.
When B requests access it'll send an email where A can approve/deny access immediately; or if you're completely locked out, B will be granted access after the waiting period that you can set passes.
B can either be another person you trust, or it could just be a written backup that can be locked somewhere safe but not accessed on a daily basis.
If you want, after designation you can cancel premium and the emergency access will still be active, you just cannot add/edit who has access.
Ah okay so I guess the mig can't spoof ids. Then in any case it's probably only a matter of time the console gets banned if it ever reaches the internet, which is worse than modding because now you have no way of updating the firmware for future games.
Fair point. To be also fair I'd consider that anyone who is considering still mainlining a Switch in 202X and would be any interested in a flashcart, it would be because their system is already modded.
Interesting point. Although quite the contrary, I'd think the flashcart mostly interests switch owners who didn't mod their console for whatever reason. Eg. OLED owners, cost of modchip install, lack of access to reputable installers, risk of physical damages, voiding warranty, hassle of juggling cfw updates, etc.
I'm not sure what you mean by mainlining a switch means, but I'm a fairly new switch owner myself(late 2022). I bought the OLED at a discount not knowing the high costs associated with modding specifically the OLED model. (At the time it was upwards of $300CAD for modchip and install, and there were plenty of horror stories of how finicky it was) Had a flashcart been available at the time, I'd buy that in a heartbeat instead.
For people who didn't mod and already own a library of games, a flashcart would've still been a cheap and good opportunity for people to discover new games they otherwise have missed or wouldn't have bought either way.
I might be remembering wrong but I've found formware upgrades in carts such as FE3H and New Pokémon Snap. It's not like they're that heavy, so they can easily be added as payload to the cart.
I haven't been able to find any resources online that suggest firmware is embedded onto the game carts at all. What you may have confused with is GAME UPDATES, which can be present on carts. The issue with your suggestion is two-fold:
By injecting a payload to the cart, you have to modify the game rom(xci) and thus invalidate the NCA signature. It is my educated guess(with no proof admittedly) that this is the reason that the switch failed to launch games when they tried to add updates and DLC onto the MIG. (OP's video mentioned this in an update).
Even if point one wasn't the case, the console does not know what to do with the firmware because there's no mechanism to update from an offline source to the best of my knowledge. Even the Switch's own maintenance mode requires internet connection to download a new firmware.
All time low, indicating the item is at its lowest price point it's ever been.
How would you install the firmware that you obtained from the Archives tho? Remember that the console for all intents and purposes is unmodded so Daybreak is not an option.
Unlike previous handheld generations, system firmwares are no longer embedded into the game carts either so while a game can require a newer firmware, it does not come with an option to update offline afaik
I was just thinking about this. The issue may be more complicated than it looks.
Currently Jerboa handles the links of only a handful of instances. As Lemmy as a whole grows and more and more instances pop up, it's just unrealistic to have the app handle 50 million server hosts.
Can opening links be something handled internally, at least initially, like maybe checking against the home instance's list of federated servers?
Good guess! I looked up some screenshots but they didn't look quite like how I remember though.
I'm no Lemmy scientist, but judging by how the post ended up at c/RedditMigration , I think we're very much at the oops stage
