I’m old school so an odometer should never do anything other than measure wheel rotations with a multiplier of circumference of the tire.

Maybe if you wanna get fancy have the multiplier occasionally recalibrated based on GPS but that’s it.

Well I guess it depends on when you bought it. If it was off eBay recently to try this new open platform that would be way less moronic.

I’d bet money it’s this.

Yggdrasil In the mid 90s.

Well shit… I don’t even think about that.

Why is the narrator always Ron Howard in my head?

Ah so more market manipulation… got it. Jesus I hate this douchebag.

Yeah I didn’t wanna pay that for a PS5. And the PS5 GPU alone is likely 5 times more power then what’s rumored to be in the switch 2… no way I’m paying that for a switch.

It’s just a matter of time before those are enshittified as well.

Edit: ok my bad… apparently you can side load different launchers. I may check one of those out then.

Jesus Tap dancing Christ

I wasn’t.

They weren’t war plans. They were attack plans. /s 🤦‍♂️

I actually kinda think it was intentional. Any business savvy person knew these tariffs were coming and that they would be disruptive especially to something like the Switch 2.

Also only ever lived in the Bible Belt although at least near more liberal universities. And you’re right, just because they can’t vote, doesn’t mean they aren’t affected.

And boy do I hope you’re right that this causes people to wake up.

Even as an American, right now I wouldn’t trust the US for shit.

Ok I had to do this. This quote is too awesome.

While your point is valid in that a lot of people didn’t vote for Trump, you’re being slightly disingenuous here. Ok maybe that’s the wrong word since I don’t believe it’s malicious. But in my opinion the number of eligible voters, not the total number of US Residents is really what you should be comparing. And that number is more like 244,600,000. So while the number is still very high, it’s more like 68.4% didn’t vote for him.

I never in my lifetime thought this country could turn such a complete 180 in such a short period of time and yet here we are.

I gotta comment on the mid 70s thing and how great it is to hear that. I have also been into computers since the late 70s (well and early 80s) although I imagine I got started a little younger than you … like I was 8 and writing basic/ assembly on my various machines back in the day (TRS-80 Model III, Tandy CoCo 2, Coleco Adam, C64). So I’m only mid 50s and I thought I was the old guy around here :) But damn if you don’t give me hope that I can stay like this for many years to come.

I’m not sure “Reddit levels of activity” is necessarily a good thing :)

But yeah that takes some getting used to for sure. I would think this is one of the more popular communities here for kinda obvious reasons given the nature of Lemmy. I’ve only been here since the first great migration but I’ve already seen Lemmy in general grow tremendously.
