Believe it or not, sometimes a person can interact with many other people to learn things. They can also use the internet to look up information.
Money need not be spent for this knowledge.

over_clox@lemmy.world 3 weeks agoHoly fuck, how much money did you blow on all these devices to know all this stuff?
Fuck, that much N addiction makes a crack cocaine habit seem healthy.

No, but much time must be spent on this knowledge between all these various devices. It’s a waste of time.
I collect games that I’ve never played. You expect me to arrange a means to play over 5000 games to see if they even work?
Fuck, I’m an archiver, not a player.
That’s only a fragment of what I have here, I ain’t got time to play every game I have…

I mean this in a genuine way - I actually don’t expect you to spend your free time on things you don’t have interest in. That would, indeed, be a waste of your time.
Your archival of games is a great effort and a positive thing.
Some folks enjoy gaming, game history, and cultural critique of generational hardware. Those interests/hobbies are also valid. That’s not a waste of their time.

LOL, I didn’t upload those games from my own system!
Most of those games I never even downloaded in the first place, I just found a loophole in the systems out there at the time and tricked the archive to upload stuff from other servers…

Dude, you asked for information and then you attack everyone who answers with knowledge you can find on wikipedia.
What’s wrong with you? If you don’t want answers don’t ask questions.
If you ask a question and someone answers it, the proper response is “Thank you for the detailed answer”, and not claiming that anyone who has knowledge you don’t must be a drug addict.
Get a grip, man.

Maybe teach the toddlers to grip their handheld game consoles and not drop them in the toilet, or maybe even prevent them from taking them into the restroom in the first place, then techs like me won’t get upset.
squaresinger@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
I didn’t say anything about toilets. In fact, I have never seen anyone drop handheld consoles into toilets. Is that something you do?
Please stop posting while drunk. Makes you look really dumb.

Bruh, my point is, it was freaking obvious that some toddler dropped the thing in the toilet, and the parents waited like 6 months while the thing rusted from the inside out before bringing it to a shop to attempt to fix it.
It was already practically hopeless, but I was tasked with trying to fix it, by my boss at work. Hell, the kid’s parents even bought the new screen.
Whether I’m drunk or not, point is I’m smart enough to not give toddlers electronics.
