Recommendations on casual GB/GBA games? in c/retrogaming@lemmy.world

I spent ages playing it, and still remember building my stages and characters (for context: there is a built-in level editor, and you can draw your own playable characters, pixel by pixel, frame by frame), I don't think I'll ever forget such a unique game...

For GBA, give a look at:

Super Monkey Ball Jr. (A classic)

Chu Chu Rocket! (Chill puzzle)

New ASUS router firmware now requires a user to be 16y or older and will restrict features and even security upgrades if you opt out in c/privacy@lemmy.ml

IMO, ASRock.

Considering that they're probably the only mobo manufacturer that officially supports using consumer AM4 CPUs on a server (see ASRock Rack), and always supported ECC ram on all AM4 motherboards - and that I haven't had anything negative happen with any of their products so far (at work) - I personally would choose ASRock next.

Haven't had the chance to try them for AM5 yet, sadly.

Nope, au contraire, I agree, I'm just pointing out that you said that digital storage conversion should happen in non-scientific notation, so you should now agree with OP in that Google is choosing the wrong output format for a, quote from the screenshot, "Digital Storage" conversion.

And yes, I'm writing multiple comments trying to explain this through narrative, without having to point out what in your reasoning sounds stupid.

I.E. Now don't you tell me that Google is incapable of figuring out which output format it should use for such a calculation...

Since I apparently need to explain this like you're 5, please read my last comment like the following:

"Are you now agreeing with me/OP that whenever you work with Digital Storage units you should never use scientific notation?"

Thanks. That was what I was looking for. in c/mildlyinfuriating@lemmy.world

Are you telling me that whenever you work with Digital Storage units you should never use scientific notation?

It is an issue for two reasons:

It's an approximation, which might be completely useless to you when coding (ie. "Read a 2MiB chunk from a file" is different from "Read a 2097000 byte chunk")
It's written down in a longer form than it would be if it was just written down in decimal base, which makes it completely useless to use such a notation in this case.

Edit: seems like lemmy.ml is shitting themselves atm, excuse the multiple deleted comments
