  • I forgot the Gameboy Pocket existed

  • Oh you said Gameboy Pocket. I forgot about those. I never had one so I'm not sure.

  • Huh? I thought there was a bump out on the GBC cartridge that prevented you from inserting it into a Game Boy? Also the notch cut out of the corner that prevents the power switch from operating. Am I mis-remembering?

  • Textra. I bought it years ago. Had it on multiple phones. Still works great and still gets updated. Lots of options too. My favorite is a little delay timer on the send button that gives me a chance to cancel if I see a typo at the last second or just change my mind.

  • Ghost desk lamp with UV lights inside

  • I would kill to just have a simple app to play dominoes on my phone with no ads and no BS. I almost found one. It didn't have ads between games, but it did have a stupid micro transaction scheme or online play or something. Grumble. Grumble.

    This might just drive me to start developing apps. I can probably do the basic stuff but I don't know where to begin programming the cpu opponent...

  • There used to be an entire subreddit that basically did this. There were hundreds of fake users each posting and commenting. No real users were allowed to post or comment. I loved it because they would sort of mirror what was currently on the front page but in much more ridiculous way.

    Edit: It was called subreddit simulator. And the creator said it used Markov chains. So no need to use bad prompted LLMs. Just do it the "old fashioned" chatbot way.

  • It doesn't help the fact that there was a meme where someone photoshopped his face to be slightly smaller. Then as it became popular and he started appearing in news more, a whole group of people became dedicated to altering every photo of him. It's possible that those images ended up in the top results of google.
