alejandroto Nintendo•What do you think the Switch successor should be called? Keep the Switch name or nah?English7·3 years ago
alejandroto GameBoy•My personal console colection. What's your favourite Gameboy?English2·3 years agoMt favorite is my red SP. I put so many hours into that thing playing Fire Red and Zelda. My first gameboy was a green GBC, but I tried to “mod” it with a rechargeable battery in highschool, and ended up frying it :(
I still have my red SP, but I can’t play it because the screen is atrocious. I find it hard to believe that I was ever able to play on that thing! I also don’t want to risk modding it (even though I’m much better at that stuff than I was in HS lol)
alejandroto Technology•People are using Chatgpt as voice bots to torture telemarketersEnglish102·3 years agoSoon, call scams will figure out how to use their own LLMs to run the scams, and we’ll just have robots talking to robots.
What a time to be alive
alejandroto politics •Trump says he's unconcerned about other damaging tapes 'because I don't do things wrong'7·3 years agoThat sounds like something Mark Zuckerberg would say.
alejandroto Technology•Google execs admit users are ‘not quite happy’ with search experience after Reddit blackoutsEnglish42·3 years agoI use Kagi and never pay more than $10/mo even though I use it a lot. I think most people don’t know how much they search in a month, so the pricing can be confusing.
I have the early adopter pro plan, which gives me extra searches (1500 instead of 1000), but for reference, I averaged 1044 searches/mo over the past 6 months (not counting this month). So if I had the standard pro plan, I’d have paid $10.66 per month on average.
The unlimited plan seems excessive to me, unless you’re playing with the API or something like that.
alejandroto Shitty Life Pro Tip•SLPT wear a condom on your tongue for a week so when you take it off you appreciate food more.3·3 years agoGive a man a tongue-condom, and he’ll appreciate taste for a week.
Cut off a man’s tongue, and he’ll appreciate taste for a lifetime.

Sucks that all of the iOS apps require getting an invite to TestFlight, including joining some discord server to ask for it. It doesn’t help that Lemmy on mobile Safari sucks, so being an iOS user on Lemmy requires either a lot of patience or a high level of commitment.
It’s nice that there are a lot being worked on, but I feel like whichever hits the appstore first will win.
alejandroto Technology•Playing sounds of healthy coral on reefs makes fish return (2019)English5·3 years agowhat a scam smh
Because it’s cool
No joke I have this controller too and it’s great. The left analog stick on mine started to drift after about a year of street fighter, but that’s better than most controllers. A hall effect version of this thing would be the last controller I’d ever buy.
alejandroto Malicious Compliance•/r/france is now dedicated to discussions related to France Gall, a former French singerEnglish25·3 years agoDid she stop singing, or did she stop being french?
Hell yeah! I still think about Metroid Prime every now and then. That’s an adventure that sticks with you.
… although I wouldn’t mind forgetting the fully-voice buddy characters from 3.
The Smash controller is very good, but not as good as an original. The new one is lighter, is made of cheaper materials (my non-scientific opinion from holding them), and has triggers that can get stuck at certain angles.
But as far as modern GC controllers go, that’s probably the best option.
alejandroto Not The Onion•The only manned submersible that could reach the missing Titan is owned by Steam's Gabe NewellEnglish11·3 years agoI can’t think of any other billionaire I’d want to be rescued by.
ACTUALLY it’s GNU/Linux (pronounced gu-noo-SLASH-li-nux). I know it’s just a “meme”, but get your facts straight buddy, this ain’t fucking le reddit.
Don’t make me have to

Is this a “just trust me bro”, or do you have a reputable source to back up what you’re saying?
alejandroto Star Trek Social Club@startrek.website•S1E14 - What is this reverse 🖖 hand signal Riker does?1·3 years agoMaybe that’s the evil Riker? I bet people from the mirror dimension do the vulcan salute backwards like that, and Gene probably could’ve been fooled at the time if they hadn’t yet introduced the mirror dimension concept.
alejandroto Now Lemmy Explain: Simple Explanation for Complex Topics•Now Lemmy Explain: KbinEnglish6·3 years agoIt’s a Lemmy alternative. They aim to do more or less the same thing, but are made by different people and developed independently.
But thanks to federation, Lemmy and Kbin can communicate similar to how Lemmy and Mastodon can communicate. So you can simply use the one you like best, and not worry about missing out on content posted to Lemmy.
Kbin is rough around the edges as it’s earlier in development than Lemmy, but it has more features than Lemmy, like a “microblogs” tab so that you can use it like Mastodon/Twitter if you want.
That’s why you should always search for or file a bug report before trying to create a fix.
