I don’t want to be condescending. Dolphin Wiki has an article about ripping games. You have to Google it. Or something. I can’t give a link because 🎶 Nintendo has orbital lazors 🎶 /bill wurz

Would love to, but Nintendo nukes people who do that from the orbit. (Actually, this whole thing started when I tried to download ISOs and found most of the sites down.)

However, if you do personal archival projects, they legally can’t do shit! We have laws here.

Ripped all of the discs using a softmodded Wii. Used a few homebrew apps, CleanRip (disc dumping), GCMM (for GameCube memory cards) and I think there was another tool for backing up the Wii NAND (could have been just part of bootmii/homebrew channel)

Yup, those times sound about the same as what happened with me. Plus the time spent swapping SD cards, because I couldn’t get CleanRip to work with the USB drives I had at hand, only FAT32 SD cards.

Also, at every step of the way when converting ISOs to RVZ, I ran Dolphin’s verification thing, just for paranoia I guess.

Conservatives keep saying they’re for the common people.

Are they? Are they really? Seems to me they’re really busy doing stuff that regular folks hate.

…Dunno, sounds like a you problem to me.

If using plain CSS, usually it’s enough to set width appropriately, and margin-left and margin-right to auto.

If using a Modern Frontend/CSS Framework, then may God have mercy on your poor soul.

(Seriously I just started a new project with TailwindCSS and I’m so confused. But not entirely desperate yet.)

I dunno, most of my experience from Docker comes from docker compose, and it’s “put this thing in a file and edit it and then run docker compose up -d”.

So if anything, it’s best illustrated with the old meme of a dog typing on a computer going “I have no idea what I’m doing”.

In the late 1990s/early 2000s, there was some satire article about how to get most effective Linux support. Just write an angry news/blog article about how Linux sucks because it doesn’t (insert the thing you’re having problems with here). You bet someone will immediately respond how you’re an idiot and you should (insert detailed explanation of how to fix the thing here).

I didn’t even know Patreon had a mobile app. To me, Patreon is just one of those Big Adult Things you have to do on a computer. Seems to work just fine on mobile browser (Firefox for Android) though. Apple being mega greedy as usual.

The red eye effect happens when flash reflects off the retina. Compact cameras (film and early digital) had flash very close to the lens, so there was a high chance of that happening.

Not much of a chance these days, when most people take photos with cell phones, the cellphone cameras have adequate low light performance so you don’t need flash to begin with, and the “flash” is just an LED that isn’t as luminous as a real flash bulb.

Debian girl here. We may not have updated anything in 5 years but boy howdy are things stable or what.

GIMP didn’t “just figure out non-destructive editing by 2025”. You’re talking as if it was something that the GIMP development team just decided to randomly add recently, after previously ignoring user demands.

The foundation for that functionality (GEGL) has been in development for ages and was also used for some functionality in 2.6 for a long time. The reason why it took this long is that it’s a pretty fundamental change to how the app works. Also, that meshed with other upcoming changes at the time. Also, small development team.

If I go to a prominent government building, and there’s posters of people on row, my first thought would be that these are either candidates or the freshly elected officials.

[looks closer and squints]

Ah, being a foreigner I don’t know much about the details of American politics, but these must be the “Senate”, right? A drug lord here, a kiddy fiddler there.

Me, I’m old, so I just keep using apt-get, because that’s all we had back in the day, and I never bothered to learn what’s the big deal about apt. It’s just a frontend, isn’t it?

It’s a single car company. World economy doesn’t depend on Tesla’s success. Not even the American economy. If Tesla dies, it’s just a canary in the coalmine for much, much bigger economic problems. Like, you know, how they put dipshits in the White House, or something. So it’s kind of interesting that Elon has a moment of lucidity here, because no one around him seems to realise how screwed they are.

Mastodon is my go-to “shout in the void about my goings-on” platform.

Pixelfed is where I post my original photography and artwork.

Bookwyrm is for my book nerdery, mostly.

Edit: Oh and I have a Matrix account but despite the fact that I mentioned it to literally all of my friends, nobody uses it. I keep it around in case someone actually wants to send me private messages because Mastodon is kinda badly suited for that.

train cars only for women

Good thing nobody can actually suggest that in this day and age. Because that’s a concept that makes everyone immediately go “Ooooh, how delightfully 1800s. Wait, why are we doing this, I thought we were better than that.”

…If someone actually suggests that, have them be detained by a few chimney sweeps until the police arrives by horse carriage.

I am definitely going to need my morning coffee. I see the word “Y’all” and I’m somehow thinking “shouldn’t it be Xall if we’re taking about X11? Wait what’s wrong with my brain”
