You'd need a separate apartment just to keep it from sagging...

Oh no, I'm sure no one could've guessed the names...

The Zynga one is the worst IMO, advertising online casinos of any kind should be illegal

I just stare and wait for them to do anything but they never do...

8K ads, nice

But replacing the screen isn't as trivial as it may be on the Chromatic.

Same... If you know about his "trip" to Japan you know that he's not exactly passionate about retro gaming either.

I wonder why they chose him, of all people, as their brand ambassador. The rest of their marketing caters heavily towards people who grew up with the original Game Boys, i.e. people who are way to old to even know about this idiot.

I'm sure the GBC would be easier to repair on a component level; less components and overall simpler board design. Only exception could be the screen.

It costs almost the same as an Analogue Pocket and has way fewer features.

The Last Game Boy You’ll Ever Buy

No matter how repairable this thing is, I guarantee you that original Game Boys pretty much offer the same level of repairability. I bought all of my GBs (DMG01, GBC, GBA SP) in broken state and repaired them; it's not that hard.

For that price you can almost certainly find original hardware and have fun repairing it. That's what iFixit should advocate for IMO.

Edit: There's a Logan Paul Edition.... What?

I don't know, the whole premise of it being somehow calming or something.

One user once tried to explain his fascination for Drone Doom to me; they said that it had a lot to do with feeling the "weight" of the music. Maybe it's the same with noise? There's something undeniably raw and visceral about it.

Noise Rock can be good, but only because the Rock part re-introduces actual musical elements.

When German people go to hell, or skiing, they are forced into little tents, served shitty overpriced beer, and are subject to repeated blows to their ears

That's pretty accurate, actually. Same goes for "Apres Ski", which is the same but more annoying and sexist.

I always found noise music to be more intriguing than annoying. I still haven't met a single person who listens to noise music and enjoys it.

 

Does anyone know how to order or configure the P14s G5 AMD with a OLED display on the German Lenovo site?

The OLED display seems to be NA exclusive apart from a few overpriced offers from third party sites...

Some time ago, I pulled this sticker off our old fridge before we got rid of it and put it onto my PC's side panel (don't ask me why, I guess I thought it looked cool). I don't exactly know where it came from or who put it there, although I suspect it was put there by a Australian relative that was visiting us a long time ago (the Murrumbidgee is a river in NSW, Australia).

Does anyone know the artist or name of this if it even has one? There's no obvious signature that I can see.

Feel free to remove if this isn't allowed.

I just wanna get to know people and maybe make a few friends. I've tried a bunch of servers over the years, both general and specific ones but it never really worked out I guess? (I'm a pretty awkward person to talk to, maybe that's why^^)

Their best album IMO

 

When switching into video mode from photo mode or vice versa the main lens' OIS kinda jolts it around which makes a rather loud click.

I'm on Android 14 and the latest Google Camera update.

Probably my favourite album cover, really sets the mood for the music as well
