I moved from 256 to 1tb.

First I used an usb-c adapter for the new ssd, this allowed me to copy all the files over from the existing disk using desktop mode and some terminal commands. Even the hidden files etc. After proper formatting and prepping the new disk.

Then I just replaced the old with the 1tb. Everything was the same: no loss of anything. The full 1tb was usable as well.

I followed a tut online just for the commands. If you don’t find it: shoot! I will digg in my history :)

Haha indeed!

It’s funny when it starts to just invent things. Like packages, with version number!, that… do not exists…

Or when it outputs code without using the variables …

The most annoying thing is imho that it keeps explaining everything al the time. Even when I prompt “you have a working app with vuejs…” and others it sometimes still explains how to setup the app.

That said: the tool has become a staple in my workflow whenever I need a starting point. Or have to do some math algorithmic things

Same.

As someone who uses the actual rss feeds, reading the same feed without interaction is just … a waste of time. Clutter. Annoying even.

Like you said: I come here for the interaction and/or to find an interesting article someone found in a channel I’m unaware off. Not bot rss feed content.

The memes I don’t remember but … I’m old. And…

Reading this gave me an instant flashback of dropping my old Ericsson on a train and it just … lost all its parts! Man that was 😱

Yes I had to hunt for: the battery, the battery cover and the SIM card! In those days the latter was bigger than we have now but very expensive.

To be honest: hot swappable wasn’t all that cool or user friendly at all. You had the dropping issue, the dirt and grime got in the cracks causing it to loose contact. Just like a mouse ball back in the day. All that and … when it was time to change it, never found a replacement and the phone was just outdated anyway.

Now all those different chargers we had? That was the real nightmare. Man! Very glad that is solved, even with the mess usb-c is.

I fear this is again one of those rules politician’s make without any knowledge; or they just ignore reality. Per usual.

Finally had some time to do this and it is somewhat “easy” … but it depends. For me finding the TOTK rom was the hardest, only because I was to lazy to take it from my switch. I have bought a physical copy, it’s the booting to the tools that is just nerve rekking for me.

The Egg Ns Sim… site is your friend BUT I did already have a fully working Emudeck install with my own Switch private keys and other things. I have a first gen one, but even so I had to 3d print a thing to short circuit some pins and patiently trying to get it into the special boot modus. I followed some guides on the net, don’t remember exactly which one… only that it was extremely frustrating getting the thing booting correctly. Thinking now I think it was the a guide in the docs of Yuzu I followed.

In the end: it’s worth it. TOTK runs very smooth for me, even if I want to keep it at 1.0.0 (easy dupe glitch!!) for now with only the 60fps static mod (search gbatemp.net 5.0 post). That said I’m back at the sky tutorial level. it has some issues with fused weapons but overall I get the feeling the game is faster and runs better on the deck. Especially the loading times.

If only Nintendo came to reality and released ports for other machines. I actually would have bought it in a heartbeat. Even twice.

Finally had some time to do this and you’re totally right: in the end it was fairly easy to do. even with motion controls.

Haha good one! I was wondering why that name sounded familiar and this is it.

Very good film to see… once and never ever unsee or forget the images, isn’t it?

Should have been clearer: traveling would be an added bonus. I don’t travel a lot. Although this might be a good solution: if their is a dock that is small for the switch that does work for al my other devices :)) but like you said the power delivery is often the issue then.

I sometimes feel like sure with usb-c we have a single connector but it’s all more complicated than now even before we had usb. We had multiple connectors then but not “oh that cable/psu does have the good connector but not the watt or density for fast charging/data or whatever”

That said: al the different micro usb connectors and usb3 connectors was a nightmare as wel. Af least that is solved now I guess.

Damnit. Ugh. :( I thought I read that somewhere.

Man I love Nintendo, bought almost all consoles over the years but their strange overly protective platform guarding makes zero sense. Especially in 2023. It’s even worse than Apple imho.

Yeah I know, but I like the motion controls.

And frankly the exclusives is the only thing I play on my Switch anymore. It’s just easier. Especially given I do not have much time anymore to tinker with things like when I was 20y ago. 😉

But… it is on my todo - someday - list for sure!

Which one? Mario I mean. Odyssee?

I tried with Luigi’s mansion 3, everything taken from my own switch … but the performance is just not there. Very very low fps which makes the game unplayable :(

Why that one? Well I wanted to try an AA title and I left my cartridges downstairs. To lazy to run 2 floors to get them so 🤷‍♀️ 😏 (As I rule I almost never buy anything digital from Nintendo)

I’ve already completed Odyssee but if it runs very well on the deck like you suggest I might replay.

Did you try TOTK? How good does that run if you compare with the original switch? Guess motion is lost? I do use that so…

Man! If only Nintendo would release their games on other platforms!! We will buy them. And re-buy them. Oh well. Maybe. Someday.

Same as you: TOTK. I’m already 40h in and I feel like I’m just starting! This game is really massive imho … for someone like me maybe who is just exploring and doing some quests but without structure.

In a way I’m looking forward to the paper guide to just bring some kind of structure and sense of “where the hell am I in the story, is this just 2pt or am I already at 50?”

Sometimes I miss the more linear Zelda’s

Side note: I must admit I still use the dupe glitch. I really like this relaxing way of playing. For me it has been a life saver, kinda like an accessibility option. Otherwise I would not be able to play at all (health issues). So now I’m very anxious 😬 that the game will install the update when I misclick Oh well, still lots of fun!

Question back: what was your first Zelda?

Mine was Links awakening on the game boy, I was 12. Couldn’t speak a word of English. No internet. Shit was haaaaard! 43 now. Still playing 😁 and…… Introducing Zelda to the next gen to: what did you think? Jup the remake of that one! Fully dubbed! So far my nephews and nieces love it!
