    Need advice for converting analog signal to digital in the most cost-effective way possible

    I'm a pretty big fan of the Wii. Anyone who grew up with it will tell you how magical the system is. Even in 2024 using a Wii takes me back to a time when people looked forward to what technology the future would bring. Alas, my TV is not very kind to analog signals, with just enough video delay...

    Glossy replacement case?

    I am the owner of a DS Lite with one of the white glossy cases. Unfortunatley, that case has yellowed and cracked. I'm looking into replacement cases, but I can't find one with that 2006 glossy aesthetic. Is there any such replacement case avaliable?

    Tom Bombadildo has left the editorial team following his TOTK review

    I think taking down his review was a good move. The reviews were meant to be taken seriously.

    star trek resurgence ad forcing narrow width

    Why does that have to be an option. Takeover campaigns shouldn't be a thing, especially not when they're as horrible as they are. I have the setting ticked now, but if I get the ad again even after ticking it I'm enabling my adblocker.

    NO 1683851198 If compiling it yourself doesn't work I'd suggest installing Linux on your mac. Linux has relatively low overhead so it would have the best results for gaming.

    Thoughts on Prime Remastered?

    It's already been about 3 months since Prime Remastered came out! What do you think about it? How well does it stack up to the original?

    I concour. Literally nothing of note has come out of crypto other than the buzz around it and money laundering.

    Making plans for completing the gen 3 pokedex, need opinions and advice.

    One more thing I should add, pokemon box requires 100 pokemon to be registered as caught before it allows a game to link with it. Until I reach that with both Emerald and Leaf Green, I'll simply be using colleseum to trade.

    @Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.

    They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".

    It's a DS Lite in a slightly bigger DS Lite shell.

    @SylverReZ if you could find a v5 DS ML you would have the best of both worlds since the v5 units had the same backlight brightness levels as the DS Lite unlockable with flashme

    but that's a long shot

    A woman with no arms and no legs was sitting on a beach. A man comes along and the woman says, "I've never been hugged before." So the man feels bad and hugs her. She says "Well i've also never been kissed before." So he gives her a kiss on the cheek. She says "Well I've also never been fucked before." So the man picks her up, and throws her in the ocean and says "Now you're fucked."

    Agreed, that why I try to buy all my games on disc, Xbox anyways. Switch games (which I pirate tbh) don't matter much, I stay offline 24/7 anyways.

    I don't pirate them, I Use Them :mellow:. Like I do @BigOnYa 's couch :tpi::evil::rofl2:

    @BakerMan - you can still "own" digital media, arguably easier and better than physical since you can make copies and backups, as much as you like.

    The issue is DRM
  • cearp @ cearp:
    You can buy drm free games / music / ebooks, and if you keep backups of your data (like documents and family photos etc), then you shouldn't lose the game. but with a disk, your toddler could put it in the toaster and there goes your $60

    :rofl2:
  • cearp @ cearp:
    still, I agree physical media is nice to have. just pointing out the issue is drm
  • rqkaiju2 @ rqkaiju2:
    i like physical media because it actually feels like you own it. thats why i plan on burning music to cds
