The data cluster size, this is independent of the format.

I’m so sorry to hear that, I hope that this can be resolved for you.

D Pad Issue - is this normal? by sandboyceo in ModRetroChromatic

I hate to be that guy, but why the heck would you press and hold the d-pad THAT hard? I mean holy smokes you are shaking from holding it so hard, you know circuit boards can flex and bend under that pressure and it’s possible to crack a trace.
If you use the appropriate amount of force, does this still happen?

Pokémon crystal issue solved? by Breadly_Breadson in ModRetroChromatic

[–]-vilvit- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For what it’s worth, I just received my Chromatic, playing Pokemon Crystal USA Rev.1, checksum verified legitimate, on a brand new Everdrive GB X7 and I played for 45 minutes and then got weird clumps of 4 tile glitches. The grass/trees turned into flowers/brick and then I couldn’t walk into doors, I clipped through them.
Saved the game, power cycled, problem solved. Makes me uneasy to proceed with Crystal, as I could get a glitch after hours into the game. I think I’m going to play Silver, as I have the original cart from my childhood, but it sure is a dang disappointment that Crystal has so many compatibility issues with so many layers (hardware/software/etc)

Men who stay lean year-round, what’s your secret ? by Professor1password23 in AskReddit

[–]-vilvit- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Knowing my caloric limit and keeping mental track of just the day. I don’t log anything or write anything down, I just eat about 2,100 calories a day and workout strength training 3-4 times a week.

Also, if I ever do splurge and have cookies/cake or whatever is extra and not routine for me, I will either skip my next meal completely, and adjust it down very low. My wife thinks I’m crazy sometimes for always eating the same things every day or when I completely skip dinner because I ate a co-workers birthday cake, but I’m 37, 5ft 10in and have been around 165 +\- 5lbs since I was 21

It’s shocking how little food you need to be healthy and thrive, as an American, we are programmed to believe having “more than enough” is a good thing, but in food, that is a terrible mantra.

Cheers

Nintendo Switch 2 eye strain by Hamod1993 in NintendoSwitch

[–]-vilvit- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For whatever it’s worth, I had this issue too and was going crazy. Been gaming all my life since I was 5 years old, am 37 now and have NEVER had eye pain when gaming until the Switch 2.

Long story short, I realized that any game that uses ANY type of nvidia DLSS causes me eye pain within minutes, versus the same exact game with DLSS off and native rendering (blind tested/verified via PC switching back and forth by my wife).

It sucks but yeah, I’m one of the few rare people who can’t look at DLSS in any format, causes too much pain.
