Switching between Memmy and Mlem. They seem to compliment each other in missing features. Although as Mlem improves, I’ll probably stay there. I’m used to Apollo.

This is so much better! This is coming along nicely

What kind of things do you craft?

I discovered there’s giant 5 hour+ videos of entire Saturday morning cartoon blocks from all different networks from the 90s on YouTube. Complete with bumpers and vintage ads.

I have to be up early on Saturdays now because the baby doesn’t understand sleeping in so I put these on.

Is this related to the Mlem not being technically open source but using the terminology anyway? I don’t really care but there was some drama over it

I definitely respect the dedication to playing on the original hardware. I got a retrostone a few years ago and it’s pretty fun for mobile retro gaming. I’ve got access to all the game boy iterations and NES, SNES and Sega Genesis and it looks kinda like an original game boy.

Yeah, I’ve played through Gold a bunch of times. It never really grabs me like the original one does. I play through Red about once a year.

Have you had to replace the battery in your cartridge yet? I switched to a handheld emulator system because all my cartridges started dying.

I realized after posting this HG/SS is DS so no dice. I read the graph on Wikipedia wrong. I guess I’ll give FR/LG a shot.

 

I was going to replay Red/Blue but I always do that. I never played the GBA ones. Is Ruby/Sapphire worth it? Or should I go FireRed or HeartGold?

Nothing. I miss being more informed on what’s going on in the world but I don’t miss mindless Reddit discussion about it. I miss a lot of subs though. If AskHistorians goes back to normal, I might pop in for that occasionally.

This is getting better and better though, I’d rather ride out our awkward phase than get sucked back in to the Reddit cesspool and drift away. Although we really need to stop talking about Reddit so much.

PWA always have a ton of UI quirks that make them hard to use. It’s a cool idea and I wish they would take off but they just aren’t there and I’m not sure wefwef will be able to overcome that, as good as it looks.

Probably something like wr90
