  • Elden Ring is amazing. Makes me wish the souls games had some kind of easy or fair mode because I was never able to enjoy any of the earlier soulslike games due to hating how unfair they felt

    Tell me about it; because items are wholly disabled, and benches no longer restore MP, magic of any kind cannot be spammed in Hard - if you run out, you have to wait for it to slowly regen, instead of just using an Ether. The disabled-items restriction also makes vending machines and treasure chests largely worthless, as well. Not a fan of this, nope.

    Due to this, the "best" way to heal mid-combat is the inconsistent Chakra (heals up to 40% of remaining damage - so the closer you get to full HP, the less it heals you), or Pray, which consumes 2 ATB bars (and thus can't be spammed). Cure spells can be used too...if you have spare MP, that is.

    And since everything has inflated HP numbers, especially bosses, fights take much longer to finish and are thus much more frustrating, especially with them hitting so much harder and far more frequently as well. Heck, being stun-locked by attacks is much more common than in Easy/Normal, just adding to the pain.

    I stopped using after I completed my tree and just talk to people in my target language now, I think it is more effective

    @x65943 the only reason I actually started duolingo is because years ago you put a post on your profile about your duolingo streak and I thought "huh that would be cool to have" :rofl2:

    i feel like i learned nothing in the last 900 days of it though :mellow:

    It's a really great way to start learning a language from scratch, but I learned myself you have to pivot to other things once you get a grasp of the language

    Ultimately producing and receiving the language are paramount - I use an app called hellotalk to practice Chinese - there are probably similar spaces for any target language

    Reading simple graded readers was also super helpful to me
    What would happen if I were to, hypothetically, create 17.3 billion GBAtemp accounts simultaneously

    I'd have no idea how to write that script - I don't know any programming languages - but in theory that sounds possible, at least to me.

    you'd have to make 17.3 billion different e-mail adresses at that.
    It's not just GBAtemp accounts one needs to create ; )

    Assuming 1000 accounts per second (very generous), it would take ~200days of nonstop hammering of the database to create that much.
    Although, I think disk space issues would soon arise before reaching half-way.

    Elden Ring has been consuming my life, absolutely despised my DS1 experience but I've been no-lifing Elden Ring for the last week
    I am now a linux (mint) user, at least for my laptop. Wish I did this long ago.

    I still need to do my move from Windows to Linux soon cause now the brains of all of them are now tied to AI and implementing it inside of Windows.

    @AncientBoi, Yeah, believe you can do PSP games as well. But a Pi5 is much powerful in comparison.

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Not sure about other models of Pi4 but the Pi 4 B with 8GBs OCed to 2Ghz handles PSP really great except like 1 game I found and it is playable it just looks bad lol Motor Storm Arctic something or other.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Other games I can have turned up to like 2X and all kinds of enhancements, Motorstorm hmmm nope 1X and no enhancements lol

    I will admit that one does seem more interesting than the usual Ambernic ones, and I already liked those.

    I dread the price point.

  • Veho @ Veho:
    This looks like one of their premium models, so... $150 :glare:

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    To me that seems reasonable.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I mean since basically all the games are errmmm free lol
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I mean yeah sure but the specs are the same as a $50 model, it's just those pesky "quality of life" things driving up the price, like an actually working speaker, or buttons that don't melt, and stuff like that.

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I think all in my Pi 4 was well north of 200 bucks 150ish for the Pi 4 the case the fancy cooler, then like 70 for the 500GB MicroSD then like 70 for the Xbox controller. But honestly it's a nice set up I really enjoy and to me was worth every penny. (even bought more controllers for 2 or 4 player games.) hmmm have never played any 2 player games yet :(
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Yeah that's what I hate about the RPi, it's supposedly $30 or something but it takes an additional $200 of accessories to actually turn it into a working something.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    yes that's the expensive part lol
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I mean sure it's flexible and stuff but so is uremum but it's fiddly.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Yeah a lot of it I consider a hobby, using Batocera I am constantly adjusting the collection adding and removing stuff, scraping the artwork. Haven't even started on some music for the theme... Also way down the road I am considering attempting to do a WiiFlow knock off lol

    I want everything served on a plate plz ktnx, "work" is too much work for me.
