What obscure about:config settings would you recommend changing?
  • Setting full-screen-api.warning.timeout to 0 removes the notification at the top of the screen that tells you how to exit fullscreen mode.

  • Using retro inspired controllers when playing emulated games
  • It's actually kind of a drawback sometimes. Super Metroid for instance is pretty awkward to play since it's hard to hold B and press Y at the same time 😅

  • Using retro inspired controllers when playing emulated games
  • I have a decade old Buffalo famicom-style controller with ABXY just like in your photo, although mine is wired. I've opened it and adjusted the Dpad by partially covering the contacts with tape, and I swear it's the best Dpad I've ever used. I've also got an 8bitdo FC30 Pro but I rarely use it nowadays.

  • What's your uptime record?
  • I think my first raspberry pi got to 500-ish days before we had a power outage

  • Fairphone 3 gets seven years of updates, besting every other Android OEM
  • Just to clarify, this is about the 2019 model Fairphone 3, which does have a headphone jack.

  • anyone here fancy themself some GameCube?
  • I haven't played my GameCube since it was current, but recently I installed the picoboot mod which lets me load games off of a microSD card. Haven't actually sat down to play anything yet but I've booted Baten Kaitos and Tales of Symphonia just to confirm that it works 😎

  • What is your favorite Coffee drink?
  • Probably cold brew. It's a very forgiving brewing method and seems to come out great everytime.

  • Just wanted to say thanks for showing me Preserving Worlds. It's so, so good and I'm in the same seat as you now, considering buying the second season.

  • Do you organize or catalogue your playthroughs/collection/backlog?

    For years I've been using HowLongToBeat which has good tools for tracking playtime, collections, backlog et.c\.. However the site is pretty laggy on my phone, so I'm exploring other options. What is you guys' approach?

  • God, I love the bizarre atmosphere in these long-dead virtual worlds. I'll definitely check out more of his videos.

  • People who don't charge their phone at night... Why?
  • Keeping Lithium-ion batteries at 100% charge will reduce their lifespan. They want to live in the 40-80% range. I use an app that notifies me when my phone has charged to 80%, so that I can unplug it. It may be overkill, but I plan to use this phone for 9 more years or so.

  • What games do your friend groups tend to play with one another?
  • How is Omega Strikers? I've had my eyes on it but it's not really my friends' type of game. I might play it on my own because I think it looks really cool.

  • What games do your friend groups tend to play with one another?
  • Team Fortress 2! We queue Casual and just laugh at funny ragdolls, cosmetics, and the bizarre fever dream interactions that can only happen in TF2 😅

  • The Jim Power NES Demake is insane! Does this look like an 8bit game to you?
  • The graphics blow Kirby’s Adventure out of the water!

    And it doesn't seem to have much (if any) slowdown. Impressive!

  • What is yalls favorite retro game?
  • Mother 1 is my favorite, it's got such a unique atmosphere. Some of my more recent favorites include the Valis series (bishoujo action platformers), and Monster World IV (action platformer with light RPG elements). I'm big on aesthetics and those games really appealed to me!

  • Wow! Grandia emotionally hit me hard.
  • That sounds super cozy! I've always been a portable gamer main, so when the Grandia HD Collection was announced for the Switch, I literally cried tears of joy 😭

  • Triangle Strategy version 1.1.0 update now available; adds chapter and story battle replay features, extra chapter
  • Oh that's nice. I finished one story path but never got around to doing the others. I find that I always prefer Tactics Ogre now that it's on the Switch too.

  • My Miyoo Mini+ stopped charging.
  • The pads look intact, which makes it a much easier repair than it could have been.

  • The eShop may be closed, but this little device is always going to be favorite.
  • No reason to update, really. Afaik they haven't added any features of bugfixes for years. You can get rid of the annoying system update popups by deleting pending titles in FBI and disabling Wi-fi.

  • What’s everyone playing this weekend?
  • The original Etrian Odyssey on DS! The modern remakes just came out, but I don't agree with the price tag. I'm almost through the 3rd stratum and I'm having a blast.

  • Your Favorite foss Apps!
  • Android

    • Waistline calorie counter
    • Verifit workout diary

    They're both pretty basic but honestly upon switching I realized how many superfluous features I didn't use in my old apps.
