Comfort has nothing to do with it. If you don't show up at your work, you don't have income anymore. There's no fallbacks by design. They keep you in line by forcing you to work. And they made sure the cost of living was high enough that most people have to work a 2nd job, so protests can't even be held after work hours.

You've been set up for this after decades of preparing.

Honestly. No one should have to work more than 200 days a year. Reality is unfortunately different in a lot of places. But working more is usually not good for your health.

It looks like a board where they indeed probably put the components on by machine, however without solder paste, since it was going through the wave solder anyway. But you would need to glue the components down then.

That's why there is so much excessive solder. If it was printed with solder paste, it wouldn't have this much solder.

There's specific wave solder glue for smd components. Most likely all components were glued down. You can still see the off-white glue on the ICs in between the leads.

The parts that should not be soldered are usually masked off. Either with a mold or kapton tape/flexmask. Never Painters/scotch tape, since it will melt and/or burn.

If it still won't work you could try a different pc maybe. Some friend or a laptop or whatever. See if it still won't work.

They aren't the best levels, but far from the worst.

Potentially it could be saved in the same folder as the rom.

And can you delete it while playing the game?

[–] DosDude@retrolemmy.com 3 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago) (6 children)

You can try to manually delete the save game. It's in the ./saves folder of retroarch. Don't delete the files in the ./states folder, as these are your save states.

If that didn't do it, you might need to change permissions for the folder.

It does not tick all boxes, but I think smart launcher might tick most boxes. I've used it for almost a decade now. Drawer is organized into categories automatically. Which makes my home screen a single page, and everything is easy to find. The search works great for apss not easily found

In case of emergency or downtime, I will try to give updates through mastodon. You can follow me @DosDude@mastodon.social

You can also message me there if you notice the site is down and I haven't posted an update yet.

The recent downtime has put it to my attention that users might want to get updates if the site is down. I completely understand, and agree. I don't intend to use this account much, so don't expect the usual microblog nonsense from this account.

Thanks!

 

It would be nice to see the domain the link takes you in the post feed (for compact, not sure if it's already in other views, but I'm sure other people using those would like it too if it's not there already) like in the lemmy web UI. I don't always want to go to certain pages, and this makes that easier to spot.

 

The actual play is over 6 hours, and surprisingly amusing to watch!

Link here if you have 6 hours of free time.
