The lazy answer for me is PS2, since that’s how I was able to play all the PS1/re-released games I missed out on. Pretty much all the Final Fantasy games, Chronl Trigger, Chrono Cross, Star Ocean… And then there was also FFX and Twisted Metal Black, some of the PS2 highlights for me.
I think SNES still has my heart though. I feel like most of the major titles were better (more perfected) than their N64 counterparts. The Legend of Zelda LttP absolutely consumed me growing up and is still my favourite game of all time. Many years later I find I’m still interested in games that look like they could have been released on SNES.
Everyone embraced smartphones and created a bigger market for games than there ever was before. Naturally when the mainstream latches onto something it becomes diluted and all about making a quick buck. Imo
Hey smart peeps, I’m a remote worker who attends a lot of virtual meetings. I also sometimes create training videos or host training sessions, and my current earbuds are some $15 amazon cheapos....
I feel your pain. There doesn’t seem to be much choice for quality earbuds, even when you are willing to pay more for it. I recently returned a pair of Sony earbuds that sounded so dogshit it was insulting.
Based on some audiophile conversations I have read, it might be worth looking into IEMs (in-ear monitors). From the bit of research I’ve done, it seems you can get better quality from these compared to regular consumer earbuds. It looks like you may need to get a cable that has a mic built in, but that might give you more options.
So instead of using a more Canadian culturally appropriate phrase, like “here is where to turn when in need” or “this helps me afford rent”, many will just be less cautious and might say “here is how I save hundreds of bucks” or “here is how I get free food”.
If it’s anything like the drawstring bags I have tried, it’s flimsy and mostly for show - it barely even tightens the bag when you’re ready to tie it up and throw it out.
If you’ve tried it, does this taste any better than red dead nettle? That stuff is like… pungent. And… oddly textured lol
I am very new to foraging, and have not heard of the red dead nettle. This spotted dead-nettle, from the tiny piece I tried, had almost no flavour - less than lettuce imo. That’s why I mentioned salad - I think it would be a great “filler”.
I mean if it was a brand new account posting just things like this, sure, I would agree. In this case I recognize OP and give them the benefit of the doubt they aren’t an undercover Shitify agent here to advertise on the shitpost community. Not everything has to be black and white.
I don’t know for sure, but I think theoretically you could calculate the time it takes between a tire driving over each line to determine the vehicle speed. I imagine that’s why there are two lines and not just one.
I was fine with giving them 5 seconds of attention in exchange for a video. Then they added more and more, and moved the skip button SOMETIMES. It’s straight up disrespectful.
Hey whatcha all been playing! I finally finished Alan wake 2 after a long hiatus. Maybe a tad too long but damn what a game. Cannot wait for Control 2 and whatever else Remedy has cooking
This week I’ve gotten into Shining Force 2. I got a glimpse of it 20 years ago on a friend’s Dreamcast and finally get to dive in.
I have been absolutely itching to play Final Fantasy Tactics again, but it’s difficult to find. SF2 is scratching that itch nicely. Bonus that this cost less than $2 on Steam, and I’m able to fast-forward repetitive battle animations and longer dialogue.
And that’s why interest on borrowed money tends to cost more than any guaranteed investment. Because otherwise the ones loaning would just take the investment themselves.
What is your favourite game console?
It sounds dumb but my pick would be the SNES. There’s just something about 16 bit games I love....
Why do mobile games suck nowadays?

Who here's committed to not shop at Loblaws' companies this month (and beyond)?
Including their brandname chains:...

Found some in the woods yesterday and looked them up. Apparently the fruit is very tasty, resembling Starburst. Have you tried it?...

I tried a tiny taste and it was pretty neutral, not “grassy” at all. Might work well in a salad....

Just for counting? For speed also? (lemmy.world)
Yeah I know these are used for counting vehicles but can they also be used for detecting vehicle speed?...
