"I wish someone would vibe code something like Openvibe, but give it support for outbox and signers like Amber on the Nostr side. Decentralization through multiple protocols"
"Oh I can do you one better, here's my latest vibe coded Nostr app, a client that wags a neon dick at you every time you zap, and then a bot starts roasting you for seeing it. Nostr is for the builders! Huzzah!"

As a big fan of the OG and 360, I do wonder if an AI could handle the Xbox brand better after seeing how things went with the One and Series. Maybe they needed a bot to do job, i dunno haha

Especially since she comes from the AI background. She did an engagement post where she asked what everyones Top 3 games were, and then she listed Halo, Valheim, and 007 as hers. To me, that response sounds weirdly AI, but also, might not be if filtered through corpo lenses. She can't say Mario 3 because its a competitor and that has to be corporate approved, so she picks Halo, which is Microsoft, 007 (assuming she means Goldeneye) which is Rare. I don't know what Valheim is.
Its just a weird answer.

It's been a couple days since the announcement, and I'm still not convinced that the new CEO of Microsoft Gaming isn't an AI bot.

OG Xbox was a great console. Whatever this thing that calls itself Xbox these days is, it doesn't fell like it has much common DNA with the Xbox of old.

It's complete nonsense. They were charging $10 for the gameboy games on the 3ds shop, which is pretty steep to begin with, but $20 is absurd

Star Fox, F-Zero, Punchout, Kid Icarus. I'm not sure who is worse, Nintendo or Sega for just sitting on incredible IPs and letting them rot

They've had franchises with some dips in quality here and there (seems like its Metroids turn), but they never allow things to full on decline. Very conservative, but they reliably deliver a good product even if they're arguably overpriced.

That's the thing that kills me. People know emulation exists and still will drop the $20. And look, I get theres a convenience factor, also, I'm not opposed to people buying collections and stuff (I'm tempted with the new Bombermam collection so I can extract 4 and 5 in english), but this is $20 for one game. On the 3ds, the game boy games cost half this, and, Nintendo purposefully killed its virtual console in favor of a subscription, and then they have the gall to release this, its like cmon people, maybe try not to roll over and die on every dumb thing Nintendo does

2026-02-20 13:20:41 CET

So Pokemon FireRed and LeafGreen coming to Switch eShop at the end of the month and are being priced at $19.99 each...
...if you pay $20 for a 20+ year old rom file with no changes to the original game, no new bells and whistles, you are an absolute sucker.

GM Nostr. Got some car time today with the wife...so much fucking Taylor Swift. Preemptive music pallette cleanse.

The grim view is that we're either going to exist in a diminished capacity - we'll be around but the machines will run the show, we'll merge with machines, or we'll die off.

Industrial Society and Its Future is an interesting read. The dude was definitely a lot of things, but he did have a worldview. He would absolutely argue that technology has made things worse.

It sounds like the relay trusters argument is on the losing end right? Its not like there are certain relays for certain topics/users, the clients just pull from everywhere, so hasn't this been decided with outbox?

I dunno, I haven't understood Nostr since things went outbox. Coming from the Fediverse, I understood Nostr as relay focused. Like Mastodon, only you send to multiple instances vs just one that can censor you.

I've seen some posts on here about Pubky, which I've played around with for a little bit. I'm a non-technical user, so I can't say if it's an improvement over Nostr or not (although avoiding the DNS issue is interesting).
What I can say is that I wish Pubky intergrated Nostr into its app somehow, even if its ducttaped on. The two protocols are probably incompatable, like ActivityPub and Nostr, but as a user, thats all "under the hood" shit I don't care about. Multiple protocols can be handled under one app relatively seamlessly. OpenVibe proved this.
I think trying to pull from the Nostr userbase won't work because there are only 24 of us here. People should be able to have their cake and eat it too with these open networks. If something is truly a successor. It should be backwards compatable, or at least give the appearance of backwards compatibility.

Between key cards and paid upgrades for switch games, this entire generation with Nintendo has annoyed me. They're always pretty brutal to the player, this time it just feels egregious.

Hell yeah, I didn't realize you could get UT99 from archive too. My saving grace is I bought a copy from GOG before it got pulled. Haven't gone online with it though, just against cpu. UT99 was the shit

Nothing triggers me more than covid. I'm pretty good about not turning into a frothing lunatic in most cases, but covid and the absolute insanity that took place from 20-22 gets me there and quick.
