I pay the server admins for feddit.uk (the instance this community is hosted on) to help with hosting costs because I think they provide a valuable service. Currently I am not paying towards Lemmy (I do pay towards Mastodon development however) but I may start doing that in the future.

My £5 a month to Feddit.uk and £1 a month to Mastodon isn’t much but it’s orders of magnitude more than Reddit and Twitter would have earned from my (adblock using) eyeballs before so hopefully a few of us paying a few pounds/euros/dollars directly is enough to support the services.

Irn Bru 1901 is that - and it’s caffeine free. The only irn bru I’ll drink now.

Definitely could be interesting - the cable mess is one of the biggest problems having multiple consoles wired up. Old transformers are less than fun to use too - many of them get quite hot and the cabling on some of mine are suffering from old age with the sheathing coming off.

Please excuse the screenshot of a video but this looks a lot like an optical sensor. I’ve seen a lot of internet “experts” covering this and the general consensus for now is optical sensor too.

Edit: screenshot from 1:02 in the launch video

I will always upvote Kung Pow!

If it’s backwards compatible with digital software then yes, day one. I held off on the Switch for over a year, just long enough to get one without vulnerabilities but not long enough to get the higher efficiencies.

Not while it has denuvo.

If you haven’t tried it, Touch My Katamari uses the back touch screen and it’s quite fun. I agree it’s really not needed but occasionally someone does something fun with it.

This is pretty standard for US companies in general.

Mine is usually just for Pokemon, Crystal at the moment. I found some PSX games with simple graphics to be fun - Vib-Ribbon worked well.

I tried to play FFVII but it was too small.

How is that rate possible? My UK (Octopus) electricity rate is 23.44p/kWh. The energy price cap is 24.5p/kWh. There cannot be anyone out there offering a price of 6p/kWh - I suspect you are looking at your gas price (where 6p/kWh would be about right)
