Is this slop or just sloppy? What's with the little green arm behind the lightning and the weird meaty stego neck?

Simple Solitaire Collection has lots of different solitaire variants. No riddles, but you do have to think a lot. "Napoleon's Tomb" and "Simple Simon" are two interesting variants I learned about from this game. (Simple Simon has simple rules but can be incredibly hard.)

Free, no ads, no dark patterns.

Shattered Pixel Dungeon is a really good, well polished, roguelike. It may be on the fringes of your request, it's not really a "puzzle" game, but you do need to think a lot to weigh your options constantly.

Free, no ads, no dark patterns.

2048 will burn at least an hour. It's free, there are tons of clones.

IMO, everything has to do with piracy.

Ever since the r4 for the DS spring boarded Nintendo piracy, every single console they've released since then has been ripped open and has had very easy-to-use tools developed for it to make it really, really, easy to put pirated games on. You can buy a flashcard from amazon with DS games on it. You can mod a 3ds in 15 minutes. You can play switch games on the steam deck.

They hate this. They want to do everything they can to lock down their systems and prevent this.

On the Wii (or maybe it was 3ds or Wii U) when updating, you used to get a notification "...this update will also check for unauthorized material and remove it." Now they're simply saying it there's unauthorized stuff they're not going to account for it and let things break (or force it to break)

Now they're locking down the usb-c port, again making it harder to crack the console. They failed with every console this far, so now they're trying something different.

In the long run it may get cracked eventually. But for now, like denuvo, it delays piracy.

Had to chew on this to figure it out.

Enemas inject things, so why would it make someone smaller?

Enemas are used to clear stools. Constipation relief.

Ahh. I get it now.

This is because the gifts must be tossed in the hole. The hole that runs the company. Because the company is run by a hole.

Once the hole is filled the company dies and you are free.

Source: I fill holes.

Kleenex, tissue. Band aid, bandage. Xerox, copy. IPad, tablet (some people call their android tablets iPads) Plucker, flosser.

It's not really that bad. Some are even shorter:

Google, search. Invisalign, retainer.

Some are iffy:

Sharpie, permanent marker. (You could just say marker, depending on if you have any other markers in the house to disambiguate from.)

And some are definitely shorter as brand names:

Q-tip, cotton swab Velcro, hook and loop Sawzall, reciprocating saw

(And if there was a shorter name for "oscillating multi tool" I would be so happy.)

I can't think of any others.

Yeah I really don't think they would do that. At least right now, in the middle of the year 2025, valve still seems to be making very consumer-friendly choices.

So what can you do with this, run custom-burned DVDs? I'm used to modern consoles with menus and USB ports that can run games of off drives. I don't even remember if the ps2 has a USB port.

Shutout to Thunder, another great client.

Ahh, the old Lemmy switcheroo.

Thank you for introducing me to Propaghandi, this band ROCKS.

Hey, it's the dudes from Yoshi's island!

I love your little buddy.

I thought this was from "don't look up," but they respected him too much for that.

It's still good. It's great even. The best part is you can't "leak" an RSS address so when you subscribe to something you won't be added to spam without you knowing. It's a great medium.
