All you really need to know about me is I’m a Super Mario RPG stan, and I’m forever grateful for the nearly-perfect remake on Switch.

Super Mario RPG running on an SNES and displayed on a CRT on the left side of a TV stand next to it running on the Switch and displayed on an OLED on the right side. It’s showing the same scene, Mario’s House, in each game, showing how faithful the remake was to the original game.

Can’t say I’ve scratched a lot of balls, my experience is limited. Did you prefer doom the dark ages to 2016, or…?

This is why you should always hand-draw dystopian scenes in a notebook

In July 2024, five months before he allegedly set the fire, Mr Rinderknecht asked ChatGPT to create an image of a "dystopian painting" that included a burning forest and a crowd of people running away from a fire. www.bbc.com/news/article...

Pacific Palisades fire suspect snared by ChatGPT image, say investigators

Investigators say evidence collected from the 29-year-old's devices showed an AI image of a burning city.

someone on the Motorola forums was having the same problem with the camera I've been having, but I just have to share the image they posted to demonstrate the issue.
it's the funniest shit I've ever seen in my life dude

The photo is of an elderly woman in gray clothes that has been so bizarrely processed that it looks both totally over and desaturated

I will never buy anything from Temu because every time I click through an ad or attempt to browse their site I inevitably rage quit because they insist on making me spin the phony prize wheel. I have zero patience for gimmicky time-wasting bullshit like that!

Not my autistic ass tapping the link thinking this was an actual hot scoop

I think BSKY has a smaller number of very active users vs X’s large number of mostly passive users plus a shit-ton of bots.

I also miss things posted here because of the chronological feed. If you don’t see someone posting about something when you happen to be looking, you’ll probably miss it.

I mean, the dude was complaining about “a mob out to cancel him,” and uhh…

Yeah that seems like a dubious claim. I bet he’s conflating time spent and money lost due to the fallout of his own actions with “harassment” of his family.

Nah, it’s not you. People were mostly focusing on the shitty comments he’s made, when the reality is the dude has a history of doing exactly what you describe—being friendly to people when it’s advantageous to him, then blowing them off, or disrespecting them through his subsequent actions.

The Xbox port was impressive! That flashlight was frustrating but it did make for some tense moments… I bought the VR port but I’m too much of a pussy to play it much, haha.

Plus I think the Xbox version was the first Steelbook I ever owned and it’s still one of my all time favorite game cases.

deeb @deeb.bsky.social · 1d

Those graphics were mind-blowing if you had a rig that could run them at the time. The game holds up visually so much better than almost anything of the era (at least anything targeting high-spec).

I know I for one am absolutely shocked by the shitty gamer bro turning around and being a shitty gamer bro after receiving no consequences for being shitty.

It was a shitty take that left no doubt as to the type of person he is. I can’t imagine @bitmapbooks.com was happy with his gloating.

What a fiasco…

I was always unsure about him as well, we had enough mutuals, and even followed each other on here. People I respect seemed to like him, so I gave him a chance, but with everything that’s come to light it’s obvious he ain’t my kinda dude.

deeb @deeb.bsky.social · 1d

Not sure if I believe the harassment claim, tbh. No specifics were provided. Although, if true, that’s shitty.

Yes! Sooo hot!

Yeah when you step back and look at everything, it paints a telling picture and it ain’t pretty.

Remarks he eventually apologized for, then he and Bitmap agreed to donate his proceeds to charity, but a day later they backed out and WRM started gloating about “beating cancel culture” and the “mob” which is… a choice.
