Yeah! Give that corporation a large portion of your income in exchange for goods, and then destroy those goods! That'll show that completely separate person with zero ties to the corporation!

I love how it still looks chunky and low-poly. They could have made it super high res and fancy, but nah, they're preserving the retro aesthetic.

Each fiscal quarter, companies want to make more and more profit. If they aren't making more profit, they see it as a failure.
Eventually, a point is reached where you can't raise the price of your product or service any more without people leaving. You're draining your customers for everything they have, but you're still just barely beating out last quarter's profits.
So in desparation, you need to do whatever you can to see profits this quarter. Drop that feature, fire this team, and you've just barely beat last quarter. Phew.
But now we have this quarter to worry about, and we've burned a bit of goodwill with our consumers by removing that feature, and we're short-staffed because we laid off all these people.
And the cycle repeats, trading in long term longevity for short-term profits.

Well, Spez did say he admired what Musk did with Twitter...
The old Minecraft Wiki was so great. I was pissed when I heard they got bought by Fandom...
Eh, I -like- the clear, chunky pixels. No filters, integer scaling.
You say that like it's a bad thing. 😏
It's a classic Turkish move for undercover police to offer membership into the Pen 15 Club, then arrest them when they accept.

Nice to see you putting in the same amount of effort in your rebuttals that Musk does with his.
The PlayStation 2 had three GTAs.
GTAV had three PlayStations.

So it only comes with one controller, it isn't actual hardware, it comes with ten games (pretty sure all the Atari Flash back games had more), and I'm pretty sure even people nostalgic for Atari games will admit they're too basic and archaic to bother with these days.
Eh.
To me, GameCube and PS2 are retro. Wii is getting there, and god, I feel old. Had to convince myself to put down "GameCube" instead of "N64".
Pros: Your Virtual Boy can be safely carried without risking damaging it or losing parts.
Cons: You own a Virtual Boy.
I'm kidding, this is neat. c: Always love seeing people taking care of their older systems.
If anyone is looking at this and wishing there was something even smaller, have a look at the Thumby, the true handheld for ants.
What in the goddamn...?

I'm brand new to Lemmy (guess why, lol) and federated systems in general. How do I block all things Meta? And what does that even mean for Lemmy, where it's an entirely different site from Facebook?
Hell yeah! The cheapest thing you could do while waiting for parts, I think, is clean it up, like removing and de-gunking that sticker.
Oh, and definitely make sure the battery contacts aren't corroded/had leaky batteries, though if you're gonna swap it for a rechargeable one, it may not matter?
Wrong. I regularly use "site:" all the time.

It also depends on the system it's using, as well as what you're buying.
If you're buying anything thay requires ID, or requires being brought in from the back (a fridge, for example), or if you just have a ton of stuff, yeah, don't bother with self-checkout. But if you're just going in to buy a phone cord or a soda, yeah, sure.
And there are some god-awful self-checkout OSes that scream at you to PLEASE PLACE ITEM IN THE BAGGING AREA, or HAVE YOU SCANNED YOUR FREQUENT SHOPPER CARD? and those can piss off and die. But there's some that don't do that, and are set up to actually be user-friendly!
The Home Depot near me somewhat recently changed out their self-checkout machines with UI and UX in mind, and holy shit, it makes so much of a difference. The screen is very uncluttered, high contrast colors are nice for drawing attention to the usual buttons to push, and the buttons per screen (scanning > payment type) change the side of the screen the buttons are on so if you just spam-tap, you won't accidentally hit the wrong button.
Facts. The baby stays in the warm womb longer, thus darkening the skin. It's where the term "bun in the oven" came from.
Let me grab a shovel for you so you can dig yourself deeper.
My RP2+ is...dying. 😭 Paint is dinged and chipped, sticks drift, and the R1 button just...stopped working. I'm not dying to upgrade to a 3+, so this is right up my alley. Better analog stick placement, and hull sensor analog sticks fix my two main complaints I had with the 2+.

Tetris & Dr. Mario does not save high scores. No battery save, so when you power off the console, high scores are wiped.
But there's a hack you can apply (to the PAL rom) to make it save high scores!
Ah, hm. Well, I don't have a Pixel, soooo...shit, lmao.

From the very start, ever subreddit should have challenged Reddit and called their bluff. Go ahead, replace the mods for thousands of subreddits. If a few dozen are changed, that's no problem. Whatever. But thousands? Good luck.
The whole protest seemed so half-hearted from the start. You don't go on strike with a set end-date in mind. You go on strike indefinitely until demands are met or a satisfactory compromise is made.
