It might be useful to give some context?

ah, the "curse of knowledge" as it's famously called. if your looking for a 1 worded answer it would probably be something like egocentrism

it can run Dreamcast

ngl I'm curious about that. Vigilante 8 2O for dreamcast always ran like stuff back when I was into dc emulation. could u post a video of this thing running dc emu if it's not too much trouble?

also a followup question I forgot to ask before, is this thing capable of any sort of 2 player functionality like either with a physical wire with 2 handhelds or over netplay?

I do have a pile of custom mods I've been sitting on for a while, many of them are event or script mods but there is a decent variety of other stuff too. might as well look through them and post some of the finished stuff

pretty cool. are you using retro arch for emulation front-end? if so, I'd like to know how/if scummVM runs on that thing - with scummVM you can play old point and click games like pajama sam, putt putt , freddie fish etc. you said it handles psp emulation tho so I imagine it will have no problem with those older games

as for modded handhelds the only thing I have at the moment is a sega genesis portable which uses an SD card for roms - it's limited to master system and genesis games though and certain games/saves are incompatible.

but yeah, the dual stick feature on that is nice, I might have to pick one of these up. coincidentally I also had the translucent purple GBC as a kid

Meanwhile as states like Florida are gutting child labor laws, and the economy is going to stuff, parents will be able to force their kids to work.

make the wage match the age

prop 15 which is particularly dangerous for lgbt youth of christian extremist parents

The amendment added language to the state constitution to provide that parents have the right "to exercise care, custody, and control of the parent's child, including the right to make decisions concerning the child's upbringing" and the responsibility "to nurture and protect the parent's child."

Ballot Title: The constitutional amendment affirming that parents are the primary decision makers for their children

on the flip side you could also say it's dangerous for youth who have lgbt extremist parents. could you imagine a parent who would convince their kid they were born the wrong gender or influence their child to undergo hormone therapy or some irreversible life changing surgery? or how about having tribal extremist parents? those would be bad too. my point being it seems your viewing this through such a narrow scope your missing the big picture

This is a priority because, currently, the constitutional rights of parents are found only in case law, which is controlled by judges. Those rights could disappear if we have bad judges who make it into office

To enshrine truths that are deeply rooted in this nation's history and traditions, the people of Texas hereby affirm that a parent has the responsibility to nurture and protect the parent's child and the corresponding fundamental right to exercise care, custody, and control of the parent's child, including the right to make decisions concerning the child's upbringing.

this isn't really different from what many states already have adopted as a 'parent's bill of rights'



although the specifics for each state differ, you can look them up and compare them here

you think Gen Z could figure out how to text on a T9 keypad????

i've slowly realized that i've been on the internet or playing with computers for 20 years now. crazy that all of this led me into an IT career........which this dang forum and Blockland did play a huge role in.

dude I fricken hated t9 word lmao i was much faster at typing each character out even tho u had to hit the button up to 3 times to get the letter u wanted. i could text at lightning speed on my samsung smooth flip phone xD

but ya I share a similar experience. although I was always interested in technology whether it was hardware or software, Blockland is mainly what got me into in programming and 3D modeling

General Discussion / Server: Haunted Mansion 2025

« on: October 23, 2025, 02:15:10 PM »

INTRO
Built in the early 1900's by John Brickbauer this house would seem like a dream come true for most folks. Not for the Brickbauers'.
John and Ellen Brickbauer were a young rich couple in love, and John wanted nothing more than to show his deep affection for his wife by building an entire mansion dedicated to her.
So he did just that. Unfortunately this house...or the very ground it sat on seemed to be cursed....

WHAT IS IT?
The Haunted Mystery Mansion is a horror-puzzle challenge in which you must solve various clues to escape. Each player gets 13-17 minutes inside of the mansion.
If you do not escape within the time limit, the house eats you alive (you die). Players are to line up at the front gate of the mansion and wait their turn.
You may have as many run throughs as you want, just be sure to return to the back of the line after your turn is over.

WHEN WILL THE SERVER BE UP?
The server will be hosted starting October 24th through October 31st. The hosted time will begin at 4 PM EST and end at midnight
These times are not approximate, it may be hosted earlier or later than advertised.
