Apparently Pauline is 13 in this game so..... let's hope not.

The VO was supposed to be cringy and over the top. IMO for adults it's just silly and for kids it's that funny intensity. Either way, I'd bet Nintendo did that on purpose.

As far as piracy goes, like... why? Either borrow it from a friend, your library (many rent video games), buy a used copy on discount, or just save up and buy it if you want to play it that bad.

The worst part is Apple's AI attempts are tame compared to other companies trying to force it in your face instead of something sitting around that you can choose to bring up. But the whole thing is a big mess and I hope they focus more on dev relations than this stuff.

Apple listening to shareholders burned it so hard. But, it's a good thing because it reminds them even Apple isn't immune to historic f-ups that can damage it.

Totally messed that up. Sorry! Fixed.

TBH I would consider an M4 Mac Mini and either a NAS or DAS to go along with it. The power, efficiency, and price make it a really compelling choice.

I hear ya. Imagine my surprise when I learned Bananza isn't even a launch title and releases in July. 🙃

Because Best Buy was still a whole lot of nothing at the midnight pre-order and Walmart never got me to an ordering page.

So happy I haven’t used Windows in nearly two decades.

Those are great links. Thanks for posting them! Gonna give them a look.

Web Rings were freaking awesome. I've recently discovered the Small Web tool from Kagi and it's basically a modern version of a web ring. It's pretty slick. www.kagi.com/smallweb if you're interested.

 

Picked up a Hyperkin Dreamcast cable that outputs via HDMI. I tried it out and it’s displaying in this tiny box on my TV. The box on the cable has no settings and the TV is a 1080 Sony Bravia.

I’m not sure what options I have aside from stretching the image via the TV settings but if anyone can assist, it would be appreciated. Thanks.

 

Nintendo's next console is a safe bet, has predictable upgrades, and will finally break its flip-flop curse.

 

Over eight years, the Apple Watch has sensibly evolved—activity rings, rest-day pauses, Walkie Talkie, widget redesign—and become an indispensable daily companion. Yet its clever hand-washing feature from watchOS 7 is plagued by incessant false “loud environment” alerts from hand dryers and repeated dish-washing triggers that never get fixed. It’s baffling that a device capable of life-saving crash detection can’t handle drying your hands, making me suspect Apple’s engineers never actually wash theirs.

 

I joined up here from the other EV communities on Lemmy because it seems some consolidation is going on. Now it's looking like there's a ton of posts all from one of the mods and it's literally overtaking my feed.

For example, the top "hot" posts are here are SIX in less than an hour.

I'm all about getting the community active and all that, but is this really the best method? Spamming links to Elektrek or Cleantechnica doesn't really spur much conversation. Is it possible to just slow that roll of link spam and work on fostering more discussion?
