Old school coding and game programing was magic. The clever tricks that nes game programmers came up with to work around hardware limitations was phenomenal. It went way beyond the bushes and clouds in mario being the same thing but in a different color.

Locksmiths have had these for years. They'll typically show up, attach the device, and then come back in a couple of days after it's racked through all the possible combinations and unlocked it.

That isn't allowed in the US,. At least for now.

For sure, and my backlog is huge. I have tons to still play. I'm just now getting around to gta5 on my steam deck. I also just finished re-playing the original ff7 with some mods that made it look way nicer than back when I played it on my ps1 in the 90's. I could go another 5 years without catching up to 2020 if I wanted to.

Which is during the winter, and dark at 5pm sucks ass no matter where you are. I'd rather it be dark in the mornings. DST 4 life, dawg.

Settings> type "assistant settings" in search> digital assistants from google> click on Google assistant

I got the change and immediately put it back to Google assistant. I don't want AI. I want to tell my phone when to set my alarm clock.

To anyone new wondering about phone apps for Lemmy, I use "Thunder" and it works great.

Also, feel free to say Luigi without getting banned.

Somewhere between nothing and very little. It's only on the audio side, but if games ran faster as if they were somehow timed by the audio the difference is about up to 0.6% faster.

I'm a bit of a diy and repair nerd for damned near anything. I have a near 20 year old roomba 530 model that still works great. Back then and for a good many years roombas were hands down the best bang for your buck. I haven't recommended them for the past decade. They fell behind in ability and build quality. Let alone any of the privacy concerns stuff. Damned shame.
