so, one of the main enemies in a couple castlevania games is a dark priest named Shaft

who the hell names their kid Shaft

wait, are people calling it smash 6 or smash 5 anyway

I remember Sakurai considered the 3ds one to be smash 4 and the wii u one to be smash 5 but I dunno if the general public went along with that

Holy crap, Valedictory Elegy got a remix for smash 6

I'm surprised they remember that game existed at all!!

this is kind of just how I've been feeling the past week or so and I wanted to use the pun "agender agenda"

The agender agenda:

- Be cute
- Avoid panic attacks

It's weird to consider just how many ways a microwave oven can seriously injure you if you take it apart. Powering up a magnetron without its waveguides on is a surefire way to do _something_ bad to you, the transformer gives you such high voltage and at pretty substantial current, just having a leaky microwave can cause cataracts over time, and that's not to even mention the fact that magnetrons often contain beryllium which is _ridiculously_ poisonous

Hey, you, reading this

You're great.

Thought: Bat-eared fox / flying fox gryphon

Anyone here familiar with I²C who could explain what it means when SDA transitions high to low while SCL is held low? I'm pretty sure that's an invalid state but something is doing it here, not sure if it's the device or the controller

Wow, you can still buy 2N2222As in the original TO-18 package, neat

now I want some

my paws are legends
leg ends

well, we bought a gamecube controller adapter for the switch weeks ago, preordered the official one

the package got lost and because of scalpers they're already sold out so even though they're sending a replacement it won't be here until the end of january

just, ugh

this is the third package that got lost in like two months. what the hell is going on here?

I want fewer games that inspire competition and more games that inspire wonder, creativity, games that explore interesting topics

Why does it seem like every video game these days is either a mobile game designed to get you addicted to it so you buy in-game currency, or a multiplayer-only FPS?

What happened to games with really good stories? Games that pull you in not for their cheap addictive tricks or their heavily skill-focused gameplay but for their immersive stories and intricate lore? or hell, even just games that are _fun to play_? they're all just either trying to get you to buy stuff, or being way too serious and brown. or both.

can I just say that I _love_ being able to feel safe talking about plurality stuff here and not having to constantly worry about someone attacking us for being different
