That’s my thinking too. The element of creativity is more fun (to me) than following instructions for something someone else designed.

Nice, that’s the hard one!

Great job! That’s one.

Welcome to the club!

Poor #4 had to settle for knees.

I’m not totally sure how to moderate this with our “no politics” rule in this community. I’m thinking the situation (and this meme) is more independently funny than about a political agenda or bickering, so I’m leaving this up.

Fixed, thanks

The Sega Genesis (or Mega Drive) had expansions that were meant to improve the capability of the system and extend its lifespan, but ultimately they weren’t super popular because it didn’t make sense to make games for such a small subset of Sega’s market share.

This is the 32x add-on that allowed for 32bit processing, and someone has just stacked a bunch of them on top of each other to be funny.

(Pictured here is the base system in the center, with the 32x add-on on top and the CD player below)

Wait till it’s so enshittified it’s unusable

Discord is going public soon, so start the timer…

We waited a while but realized that if we had been a little less risk averse, we could’ve started earlier and been totally fine.

Do you use it a lot? Or does it auto-run on startup?

I might open the app maybe once or twice a month, and it frequently asks for credentials.

Whoa, so much to browse through. Thanks!

I’ve been having decent luck adding topics that I like (e.g. Star Trek), but I guess what I’m most curious to find are types of feeds that translate well to RSS. Like, weather alerts, podcasts, webcomics, etc.
