A "Sign in with fediverse" button?
Since I've moved to a password manager I find these social logins less useful. Personal opinion.

Super Game Boy Plus: Ultimate Super Game Boy Upgrade with Enhanced Features
it requires removing parts from an original Super Game Boy cartridge and attaching them to the new board.
I am in awe of the deep technical knowledge in the retro community. I just emulate things and am satisfied. Some take it to new heights, seemingly just because they can.

Beehaw defederating effective immediately from lemmy.world and sh.itjust.works

doing that via Lemmy – or any federated platform – wasn’t the right choice.
Yeah, feels like they picked the wrong technology for their community. A phpBB style forum with isolated signup & long-developed moderation tools might have been better for what they want.

Paid Servers?
I think https://masto.host/ offers what you want, you can pay to host mastodon. I haven’t seen the same for Lemmy.

The US government wants devs to stop using C and C++
I thought the US Government bought a lot of software in Ada, so I hope they continue with that.

Do you know a VPS prices and features comparator website?
There's so many providers, and they don't always make it clear when they change hardware. Amazon AWS feels pretty open about it, they are good. I doubt the resource you are looking for will ever exist. You won't be able to make a purchase decision with all the info you want.
Having said that, you did bring a ton of resources together in this post, thank you for that!

Time Crisis Is Returning With A New AI Powered Gun That Works On Modern TVs | Retro Dodo
Shinden also works on image recognition, so this sounds fine, but I need to read more. Light gun games were some of my favorite in the Arcades, I'll buy this or something like it.

Video game libraries lose legal appeal to emulate physical game collections online
This is the situation that the video game history foundation made their famous study, to have as ammunition for their debate in favor for libraries and research and historians. What a sad ending, I hope they find another way in the future.

Does anyone know what the AI actually does?
I'm assuming it's based on image recognition like the Shinden gun. It's a branch of AI different from the LLM systems that power things like ChatGPT.
Honestly, the fact that the article writer is shilling an AI product without actually explaining what the AI does is kinda making me doubt their journalistic integrity.
Ha ha hell yes, retro dodo is garbage, they are a site that posts whatever silly thoughts they happen to have about old video games. This kind of announcement about upcoming release is about the best they are good for, and you still have to read through the filler to see that they don't know anything more than the Japanese Twitter post that actually announces the thing.

Wish I had more time to finish some JRPGs
Look for some rom hacks to make things easier, or figure out cheats for quick level gain, etc. Older RPGs have a lot of grind and I'm just not into that anymore.
I originally looked in SRPG/Tactical RPGs because I wanted the battles to be fewer & more meaningful. Check out Disgaea 1 on the PSP, it's the best I've found of this.

SEGA Could Revive Skies of Arcadia
Eh, I often hear about the trademark renew but it means nothing. Skies of Arcadia is good but I don't see a remake happening.

The results of the 2024 Stack Overflow developer survey
I am still confused how to understand the results about programming language. Desired vs Admired? One means you use it, one means you want to?

New to Classic Resident Evil? Start with Resident Evil 3.
a valid recommendation I think. I remember enjoying the third one a lot. Also these days I really value shorter games, so that's a real bonus for it.

what's the asshole mitigation plan?
Is there an equivalent of "going dark" in lemmy? Like if there is some "global" or "fediverse" issue that communities want to protest, is there the same option as back on Reddit that they are using now?
