why would you take anything you see on the internet seriously?
This is a Nyko Air Flow controller. I had one for the original Xbox. It was supposed to keep you from sweating during long sessions of gameplay, because it was ventilated and had a fan on the back. To be honest, I don’t remember it being excellent at keeping you cool. I think the fan was pretty lousy, but it was a great gimmick none the less.
I had a lot of weird controllers back then. Some good, some bad. Most of them Mad Catz.
Fucking knocking it out of the park with the Rare Gowrons.
I love this.
What about the deflector dish? That always seems to help.
This is my new favorite gif. Thank you.
I collect rare Gowrons.
This is like Pakled logic. Biggest helmet = most powerful .
If you have a Gen 1 Switch laying around, I would advise you to sell it to somebody who wants to make use of the ability to put CFW on it. They are actually still pretty valuable given the fact that all of the models beyond the first generation are guarded against the exploit that even makes this possible.
If you can only install softmods you will not be able to crack the Switch to install Android on it. If you read the article it goes into detail about how only G1 Switches can actually achieve this because they are not guarded against the Fusée Gelée exploit for Nvidia Tegra processors. It continues to point out how Lites and OLEDs need to have custom soldering done for this to even work.
I have a Lite so I couldn’t even if I wanted to.
If you have an original gen 1 Switch capable of even doing this (eg, not guarded against Fusée Gelée exploit at the hardware level like all subsequent models) you will probably find a better return selling it to somebody who wants to put CFW on it rather than turning it into a hacky android tablet.
I just don’t get what the purpose is though. You’ve lost access to the proprietary primary library, which was the original reason to buy a Switch. If you want an emulation console there are cheaper alternatives as well other than the Deck, I was just using it as the de facto standard handheld.
There’s no benefit to nuking the OS and replacing it on a Switch. At least with something like a ROG Ally, you can make the argument that flipping over to Linux would make the handheld more performant and energy efficient. That cannot be said about flashing Lineage onto a Switch which functionally makes the system considerably less useful.
The Switch OS is already optimized and designed for the hardware. It’s as good as you’re going to get, and it’s also already Linux. I would much rather suggest cracking it to put custom firmware on the device based on the Switch OS; you would get more use out of the device because it could still play the games and be rigged to emulate the older ones.
It’s cool Lineage did this or whatever but it’s kind of a pointless and weird flex.
Why would you want to, though?
It’s not like the Switch is a powerhouse; you’re better off just buying a Deck and emulating.
You can check the md5 hash checksum provided by Microsoft to verify the authenticity. Massgrave gets it from Microsoft, it’s a legit ISO just rehosted.
Atmosphere got ionizing radiation, bro
The Traveler!
Shows up, warps the crew to the center of the galaxy, refuses to elaborate.
Yes, transporters were originally made to avoid the high production costs of models, which would have been necessary to use for shuttles back then.
Very smart imo.
Generally he is “in charge” from a CEO perspective but does not really make day-to-day decisions, which is why everything isn’t up in flames. For an example of something managed by Musk day-to-day, look at Twitter, which is perpetually burning.
SpaceX is definitely managed by a good team all things considered, in spite of the fact that the ownership at the top is unhinged.
Look at what’s happening in Canada to a much more necessary service. Our grocery chains are heavily vertically integrated, and they gouge us all to hell.
Loblaws owns everything in the supply chain from production to logistics and then some. Not only are they hugely integrated through the food supply chain, but they are also able to leverage their assets to provide financial services, have bought out one of our biggest pharmacy chains, and are currently trying to expand out into the telecommunications business.
What happens when one company owns everything? Well, they get to do whatever they want, basically. When anybody comes around to regulate or otherwise try to reign in the bullshit, they’re simply told to fuck off, because they have nowhere else to turn.
Vertical integration sounds great from a business perspective, but it is truly awful for the consumer long-term.
SpaceX is actually pretty vertically integrated as compared to Boeing for instance, who have always traditionally relied on outside firms for certain components.
SpaceX builds a huge majority of their components themselves, and it’s a massive part of why they have been successful over Boeing with fixed-cost contracts. For example, SpaceX builds all of their own engines, while Boeing contracted out to Aerojet Rocketdyne to produce theirs. In the context of the Starliner, this functionally ballooned costs because the back-and-forth between firms was incredibly inefficient, and it’s something SpaceX didn’t have to deal with.
Honestly, my thought was always just that they could replicate equipment and components as needed but it was a power intensive process.
There is a whole episode of Voyager where they land the ship to do repairs on it, and I just figure that happens more than we’re shown.
I agree though, I would have preferred Voyager to have all crazy Borg shit forever. Would have been sick to have all this jury-rigged bullshit, almost like how DS9 is totally fucked.
Wait, but we already went crazy about a woman firing torpedoes. We went so crazy, we counted them.
I remember it being one of my favored chosen out of the plethora of random third party devices I had laying around. This was a step above Mad Catz for sure, but definitely still below the original controllers.
