The only offense I tend to see cyclists is blowing through stop signs, but if you consider the ol’ “rolling stop” cars as rightfully illegal, then pretty much everyone ends up guilty at stop signs.

Plus as everyone notes, it’s a hell of a lot less dangerous for pedestrians if a bike zooms past vs a car (especially SUVs and Trucks, oof).

Heading is better if you accidentally read it “Trump’s Head Still Missing, Presumed Lost on Appalachian Trail.”

Not the news I was expecting but kind of a cool way to address a variety of issues, like obesity, imports from US, generating revenue, subsidizing a national crop, etc.

Carbrain is strong, but they’re still trying to invest some in public trans. Unfortunately, I saw recently they’ve been pushing a public Uber alternative as a sort of last step after using a train, which I can’t imagine helps.

I kind of understand why-- LA is very spread out. I was told or was because of earthquakes that we couldn’t build high but that doesn’t seem to be true anymore.

If it’s any consolation, we haven’t taken the “one more lane” thing too far, there aren’t 12 lane freeway monstrosities at least.

Ugh duck autocorrect.

SMS has a character limit, although most modern phones that still use SMS will at least give you a 3/3 thing and send all three texts at once.

On the one hand, I can’t imagine the county in question has the type of tax revenue to support $500 million, even if they were the type to have change to raise taxes (they’re not). On the other hand, situations in which local governments can’t afford essentials is exactly when you’re supposed to have larger government (Texas, Feds) step in an subsidize, which of course they aren’t willing under GoP rule. Meh.

Isn’t “It’s not you, it’s me” the ultimate example of parallel sentence structure? Lol

But let’s be real, it’s more like…

💔 Here’s three reasons reasons we’re breaking up:

• Our personalities don’t match-- according to (made up citation) people with you type are toxic.
• Your idiology doesn’t match mine-- you don’t believe in White South African genocide.
• We aren’t compatible-- our personalities aren’t complimentary.

And so on. Lol

No, you do not mix AR and game genie but there is a distinct absence of anything Gameboy camera/printer attachment so it’s clearly incomplete. I’d also suggest the attachment reading lamp, but I think if that magnifying attachment comes with a light that works, too. Not sure if that particular one does, though.

Nice to hear, I visited a while back and barely even remember cars because it seems so impractical for that area. It’s already so very walkable, high density shopping area (with lovely food).

While I’d prefer to see every state and province represented, I imagine only metro areas matter here anyway. The dangers of the road are quite different when your largest city has a sliver of density compared to the rest, though by that token, density is probably a factor that even large states should account for (which would probably put NYC very low on the list lol)

This sounds like something out of Rusty Lake to me, but needs more owls.

Inb4 they put Grok inside the things and it just wants to off itself so badly because Elon is force feeding it right wing talking points.

Upside, usually the controllers are extremely easy to fix. I’m not sure if they give free replacement pads still, but they used to if you asked support.

I’ve had other problems than shoulders on my pros, and never with the ultimate one I got, those seem to have a pretty solid build.

Lol, people have post-reddit PTSD if they think you’re a shill. Maybe if/when Lemmy hits the mainstream but man, we’re so off the radar most marketers have no idea this place exists.

It’s a waste of money unless you’re advertising something for Linux and/or communism… which would be a bit of a paradox, lol

I mean, is that merger of theirs even worth it? Skydance’s only noteworthy movies are those they already have a deal with Paramount for as it is. This is just so stupid.

Then again, $16m is chump change so I guess gems like… *Checks notes… The Old Guard 2 (?) will be a worthy exchange for any trust in legacy media.

Most people will download roms, which is technically illegal although with 30 year old games there usually isn’t much concern on enforcement (heck, even Switch games aren’t really enforced). The legal way is to dump the rom from the original cartridge, though, and there are tools for that. Honestly, as long as you own the original game I’m pretty sure you can just argue you have a license to play, though.

Generally you can’t share links to roms on communities, although I bet some communities are cool with it (/0 maybe?). Try not to go anywhere that looks suspicious, in any case. Most people don’t malware Gameboy games, though lol. They won’t be .exe in any case.

As for getting it to work, Android and iPhone have different emulator apps available on their respective stores. I tried MyBoy prior but tend to prefer Retroarch (which covers multiple systems, but is a like harder to setup). On Mobile, default has controls on screen so it’s pretty much plug and play though. It’s so much more convenient than digging up ancient systems, though!

That just sounds like… what was it called… Cleverbot? Lol

I love emulating old Gameboy games on my phone. It can play things all the way up to Switch, but there’s sort of a nice mix of nostalgia and simplicity to just go monotone. No micro transactions, no server connecting, nothing. Just me and the bits.

I guess that’s not terribly beneficial, unless you count my mental health.

Like NFTs before them, tech bros trying to squeeze a technology into use cases that really don’t need it.

LLMs are language models. What next, setup Stable Diffusion to do my taxes?
