In Super Mario Galaxy 2, the Wigglers on the Tall Trunk Galaxy slide are special slide-only Wigglers that literally cannot exist outside of it. If one of them is allowed to make it all the way up the slide, he will lose his head and become a singularity.

Well. I think GPU compute matters a lot for GPU upscalers so an 8 Elite handheld would actually suck if you turned on XeSS?
I was getting only up to like 24fps in Fortnite which now runs on Windows on ARM since a few days ago, regardless of how low I set the settings and it turned out it was XeSS

On a tangent, Apple's GPUs always surprise me in how powerful they are in compute. Geekbench GPU metal scores for their iGPUs always score super high up, comparable to actual desktop GPUs.

I saw this video and I wondered if it would be possible to make an even smaller, maybe cheaper compact mini PC powered by an 8 Elite since that chip is going into surprisingly affordable android handhelds

- appealing the court decision ordering them to release the SNAP emergency funds
- telling grocery stores that it's illegal for them to offer discounts to SNAP recipients
It really is something, I've never seen a Republican administration quite *this* openly committed to starving the poors

The USDA sent an email to grocery stores telling them they are prohibited from offering special discounts to customers affected by the SNAP funding lapse.
I'm aware of at least 2 stores that had offered struggling customers a discount, then withdrew it after receiving this email

Remember all the breathless reporting of Nintendo “banning” RTA in Japan (speedrunning event) from using Nintendo games? That was demonstrably untrue.
RTA in Japan just unveiled their Winter 2025 lineup, and 30 selected entries are Nintendo games: docs.google.com/spreadsheets...

Something interesting is that leaving any USB C thing plugged into my laptop seems to cause a huge drain, probably there's a constant 5V going to check the connection?
Is that just a thing in every single laptop with a USB4 port. I remember Framework had battery drain issues if you left their HDMI

Again, this precise use case is why these systems exist-to proliferate people’s racist (transphobic, misogynistic…) imaginary at scale. This should not be seen as a “misuse” but rather the product being used exactly as intended.
