@arcana @sun Yeah, it's one of the few things culturally that I genuinely like here in America. I'm pretty reserved so I don't think I'd have trouble turning it off, but the opportunity to practice Japanese with some small talk sounds pleasant to me.

~BitBun~ :bunRetro: (bitbun@raru.re)'s status on Monday, 24-Jun-2024 04:36:08 JST ~BitBun~ :bunRetro: @sun My experience from them is:
1. They do shitty fomo practices where you have to buy many versions of the same game to "complete" a thing. They really benefit from whales.
2. They don't keep their promise of forever physical, they have in the past released games that need day one patches which kinda defeats the point of their stated goal of preservation.
3. Did you buy something? Get fucked and wait literally 6mo minimum with little in the way of updates about the thing you bought.I don't like their business practices, but I go through them when it's something I really want. They really try to fomo you though, it feels slime-y.

But everything LRG does is there to make you buy stuff asap because it's "limited", it's in the business practice. So while yes they don't cause the scalpers, they definitely allow such a market to exist.

~BitBun~ :bunRetro: (bitbun@raru.re)'s status on Monday, 03-Jun-2024 06:36:04 JST ~BitBun~ :bunRetro: @sun Yeah when we get into ASM that's where I start to struggle to find interest in reading the code. Even some tricky highly-optimized C code starts to get a bit uncomfortable to me. But you can really do some hellish things in C.

~BitBun~ :bunRetro: (bitbun@raru.re)'s status on Monday, 03-Jun-2024 06:27:32 JST ~BitBun~ :bunRetro: @sun I'm not very familiar with GBA programming, I've programmed a DS game, which I was told the 2D mode acted quite a bit like a GBA, though I'm not sure how true that is. But I only did pretty basic stuff with it.
I'll have to watch the video you shared about it, but my first impression is that the throughput of updating it before a redraw would be tough to manage on a GBA. But if that's what they're using, I guess they found a way.

Anyways, nice keyboard! :blobcatMeltThumbsUp:
