DosDude@retrolemmy.comto politics @lemmy.world•AOC slams House Republicans for supporting Trump’s ‘big, beautiful’ bill ‘in exchange for some signed merch’: ‘Voting to starve babies’191·6 天前Comfort has nothing to do with it. If you don’t show up at your work, you don’t have income anymore. There’s no fallbacks by design. They keep you in line by forcing you to work. And they made sure the cost of living was high enough that most people have to work a 2nd job, so protests can’t even be held after work hours.
You’ve been set up for this after decades of preparing.
DosDude@retrolemmy.comto LinkedinLunatics@sh.itjust.works•LinkedIn needs to be quarantined from the rest of the internetEnglish12·7 天前Honestly. No one should have to work more than 200 days a year. Reality is unfortunately different in a lot of places. But working more is usually not good for your health.
DosDude@retrolemmy.comto Ask Electronics@discuss.tchncs.de•Is this soldered controller repairable by an amateur?English2·8 天前It looks like a board where they indeed probably put the components on by machine, however without solder paste, since it was going through the wave solder anyway. But you would need to glue the components down then.
That’s why there is so much excessive solder. If it was printed with solder paste, it wouldn’t have this much solder.
DosDude@retrolemmy.comto Ask Electronics@discuss.tchncs.de•Is this soldered controller repairable by an amateur?English3·8 天前There’s specific wave solder glue for smd components. Most likely all components were glued down. You can still see the off-white glue on the ICs in between the leads.
The parts that should not be soldered are usually masked off. Either with a mold or kapton tape/flexmask. Never Painters/scotch tape, since it will melt and/or burn.
If it still won’t work you could try a different pc maybe. Some friend or a laptop or whatever. See if it still won’t work.

Potentially it could be saved in the same folder as the rom.
And can you delete it while playing the game?
You can try to manually delete the save game. It’s in the ./saves folder of retroarch. Don’t delete the files in the ./states folder, as these are your save states.
If that didn’t do it, you might need to change permissions for the folder.

It does not tick all boxes, but I think smart launcher might tick most boxes. I’ve used it for almost a decade now. Drawer is organized into categories automatically. Which makes my home screen a single page, and everything is easy to find. The search works great for apss not easily found

DosDude@retrolemmy.comto Antiwork@lemmy.world•The Dallas Cowboys cheerleaders score a 400 percent pay raise27·21 天前Former Cowboys cheerleader Kat Puryear reveals her salary through 2022 was equivalent to that of “a substitute teacher” or a “Chick-fil-A worker that works full time.” Later on TikTok she added her job is a “full-time commitment, but part-time pay.”
As per the article.

DosDude@retrolemmy.comto Global News@lemmy.zip•Mutilation ban and microchips: EU lawmakers vote on cat and dog welfareEnglish4·21 天前Now ban overfeeding. When I walk my dog I see so many huge choncking dogs that can barely walk and want to play with my dog, but 3 seconds later they tire out. This should be classed as abuse too. Poor dogs.
Are you implying your mom swallowed your seed? Because that’s incest

If it has a recent remake I wouldn’t call it forgotten. It is a cool game though!
