I believe it’s this issue here. Doesn’t seem like there’s an agreed-upon fix right now. For now, I’ve subscribed to the issue to keep up to date with it.

Not at all. Pop OS was my Windows to Linux distro of choice, of which I stayed on for almost 3 years. It’s a great way to get familiar with Linux.

I only got out because I wanted to be closer to the edge, not because it was bad.

There’s a great video here from Lost In Translationmon about this device. Seems to me that battles on it play automatically, so it’s easy to assume that battling one would also be automatic. You can also transfer Digimon, which is where the legendary Kimeramon comes from. (Though there are ROM patches to make Kimeramon part of the game as an enemy unit, among others of course)

I haven’t personally seen it connected to Digimon World 2, though I did watch a Japanese streamer play through the game. They know about the PocketStation and Pocket Digimon World but apparently they’re rare and expensive, if they even still work. Guessing the battery will need replacing, as it’s about that age.

More, there were severe shortages on these things so they never made it outside of Japan, thus the whole feature was removed from Digimon World 2’s NA release. It also looks like it uses a horrible transparent plastic that doesn’t age super well.

If I recall correctly the PS1/PSX has a region lock chip, so to use it you’d need a Japanese PlayStation, a Japanese copy or burn of Digimon World 2 and one of these. Sounds expensive.

Even though you could emulate the Japanese version of Digimon World 2, it’s not like there’s anything currently that interfaces with these at this point in time anyway, and you’d also need a function in the emulator to forward the data correctly.

Sadly, the other thing that players typically notice while playing Digimon World 2 is the pain of having to level from 1 again after a DNA, which this could’ve helped with.

As a redirect to a list of Fediverse instances? That’d be funny AF. As a locked solo instance? Sure, for the lolz. As a real deal instance for a community? Not a chance… Basing a community on hating a guy is sure to attract more hate, and moderating that just sounds complicated.

I’m not terribly surprised that an AI firm has monetary interest in social media, even one like Xitter. There’s probably no better place to farm data than social media. A search engine maybe?

(Although I feel like it’s kinda cheating given that he’s basically buying it from himself…)

Keep this up and we might even get to see America starting a state-run car company. This’ll be great to watch. 🍿

Hey guys I got a wifi69 card, does anyone know how to make it work? NVM I fixed it.

How to make Gameguy xbox controller work: [posted 5 years ago] [Deleted by user]

Thank you for the update, thanks xManager for having kept the tunes running.

Will they be piloting this one with a controller as well?

Indeed, I remember playing with lockscreen widgets! I miss Icecream Sandwich and Jelly Bean.

Even though it’s typically associated with KDE and Linux, it’s also available on Windows. Good for people who haven’t made up their mind yet. It’s a great text editor with a feature-set similar to other advanced notepads.

I’ll be real though, if I hadn’t jumped ship 3 years ago, I’d be cutting my losses with Windows here.

Honestly, neither. Got a good local takeaway about 5 minutes on foot, don’t even need to drive. Bit cheaper and I get to eat in the comfort of my own home.

If not that, then I’d rather go to a supermarket and pay up for one of the nice pizzas.

Not really. Most recommend Framework because their laptops are open to the point where third parties can make random peripherals that fit the expansion ports. They have a page to help with choosing a distro for their hardware as well. It’s great to see this level of open-ness and repairability in a laptop. Naturally, Linux users gravitate to such a brand.

System76 leverage their own distro, Pop!_OS as a selling point for their laptops, as they have some degree of control over the hardware and software.

The other maker I’d recommend is Tuxedo Computers who also maintain their own distro for hardware they sell.

I remember in XP, Vista and 7 using the UXtheme dll mod to get third party themes. First the loss of the sidebar then the drop-off of themers. I skipped 8 and by 10 I’d had enough. Didn’t really come back to theming until I made the jump to full-time Linux in 2022. Theming support being there by default in KDE is amazing. I miss the 2007-2018 themes but Oxygen keeps me happy for now.

Yup that’s perfection for me. Next thing I know, it’s 4AM the birds outside having an argument, me wondering what happened to the last 8 hours LOL.

I’m running full AMD on a desktop, I don’t foresee any problems here. Hopefully your advice helps someone though!

Makes sense to me. I’m a Pop! user since 22.04 and the wait is painful, although the blog posts definitely help a bit. Currently I have no problems but if something breaks I’ll try out Nobara I guess. My /home is already partitioned so I can make that hop with minimal loss.
