Certified foxgirl enjoyer. Weeb, but hasn’t properly watched anime in ages. Gamer of incresingly niche subgenres. Aficionado of racecars, mechas, fighter jets, and any other vehicles you can think of. Lives in the wrong side of the planet compared to all my friends.
Made accounts in 278 different instances in the Fediverse after escaping Reddit, is still kind of lost. Doesn’t know how hashtags work.

Whaaaat was that session… I missed the actual start and only watched the highlights but what were some of the pit crews smoking… Also something has got to be done about both Ferrari race engineers, and Sainz’s impeding of fast laps.

How’s the dpad and sticks on that thing, and how does it handle arcade and Saturn emulation? Those are kinds of games I’d really like to have in a handheld with this thing.

Honestly, while I’m happily settled here in the “threadiverse” and all that, I’ve seen that the main subs I used to visit and have now reopened, are all working about the same as before the protests. They were all basically niches, so they weren’t as badly affected by bot comments and the such. We will see, however, if their moderation can still keep up after the 1st tho.

Yeah it’s going to be a process. For an example, the Gundam and Gunpla communities are relatively niche compared to other anime or model kit building (which are already niche things in of themselves) and while their subreddits are quite active, we still don’t have that critical mass (or much mass at all) of posts and content to engage with here. I have been meaning to, and plan on, making more posts to those so they get more activity.

Emulators or just straight up portable platforms like a Nintendo Switch, are the one grace for gaming on the go. I’ve given up on phone games too.

I cannot state a “FUCK YOU” big enough to reading those quotes from these devs. Screw all of this always online DRM bullshit. This era of gaming is irrepareably impossible to preserve for the future.

Oh wow that looks great! Love the contrast between the black of the body and the pink of the flowers. Also I love the irony of playing heavy fucking metal out of a Telecaster shaped body.

Yeah, honestly the only thing I’d still check regularly on Reddit is NCD. Glad we’re actually making an attempt to movehere.

Haha, I’m in a very similar situation. Picked up my old Ibanez for the first time in a long while and now that I’m in my 30s I’m looking for an upgrade. Guitars I’ve been looking at, mostly, are the Ibanez RGA-42FM, and the LTD SN-200HT and at a higher step, the LTD H-200FM. They’re all very similar guitars to what I’m personally looking for, but they might help you get some ideas.
I’m sick of having to fiddle with the Floyd Rose on my current guitar, and I don’t really want another Superstrat, I never use the middle pickup ever. So I went straight into these fixed bridge double humbucker guitars, but with coil splits (all 3 of them have it) for versatility.
I’m also looking into Telecaster-like models, and these are almost always pretty good across brands, and you can still play metal on them even with single coils.

Who’da thunk a browser made around crypto shit would do such a thing. I only use this browser on my phone because of the ad blocking to open links people send me, I should just get something else. Does mobile Firefox get proper ad blocking?
