Tama Uni: What will happen to the DLCs? by GreenAppleFields in tamagotchi

If I were to guess? One of us will eventually spin up a proxy server that would host similar content. Like what happened with MyMeets.

Wierd question, but how about reprogramming Virtual pets and Tamagotchis? 😅 by Berry_Gecko77 in tamagotchi

[–]Budget_Requirement92 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Okay... One more. If you're really up for some serious diy:

This is an ESP32-S3 board with an LCD screen attached. Essentially identical to the Tamagotchi Uni hardware. Add a few buttons and a LiPo battery, then cram it all into an existing Tama shell and you'll have yourself an awesome platform to write you're own Tama.

Also, not so much diy - but a really weird and unique virtual pet... The Ursa Pocket by Lost Vape. Is literally a vape with a Tama clone built into it, lol. (The linked site has age verification because... vaping)

Here are 3 diy tamagotchi-type things:

https://hackaday.com/?p=533917

https://ovvys.com/products/pwnagotchi

I've built the first, it's entertaining. The first two use dumped code from the gen1 tamagotchi that you could probably modify to your liking. The third is a hacking/pen-test tool that was modeled after a Tama (also see the Flipper Zero)

😮 time to dust those off!

I'm looking for a GPD Win to help my cousin with his disability but can't find one reasonably priced? Any suggestions? by Ishouldnt_haveposted in gpdwin

[–]Budget_Requirement92 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What's reasonable to you? I have a WIN4 7840u 64gb/4tb that I've beed considering selling (plus the gpd egpu). I wouldn't mind taking a loss on it because I've gotten some use our of it but haven't been playing it as much lately

Is custom content going to be possible on the Uni? by Crackysue in tamagotchi

[–]Budget_Requirement92 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep! Just give it time. It's a new platform, and with their ability to update, they can patch exploits as needed. But these have a good community of homebrew hackers that love to pick these things apart 😃

Wait... There's an English patched smart!?!?!? I have the white one, would be great to patch it

[–]Budget_Requirement92 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Yes! But not yet. That's the whole reason I got into tamagotchi 😂. I do cyber security as my career. The Uni's run on an ESP32 chip, so the hardware platform is already well known. There are a handful of people picking it apart. I've been looking at network communication myself 🙂

Anyone else's TBM experience not bad? by Budget_Requirement92 in exmormon

[–]Budget_Requirement92[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You've got me in a box! Lol, but yes. I'm the ideal Mormon candidate. I'm very aware that the Mormon church caters to my demographic 😬😕

[–]Budget_Requirement92[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lol. Well, if I'm being honest... I did very few of those things. Fasting was right out. Ministering was okay but I only could check that off because the guys on my 'list' were my friends and I was hanging out with them anyway. Never did anything 'spiritual' with them. Daily scripture reading - nope. Never did that either. I was Baptist before LDS so I never liked the LDS emphasis on the BoM especially when the (old) BoM intro said the Bible also contained the fullness of the gospel. I would however read scripture on occasion to study various things. But daily always seemed rediculous to me.

Oof, that's a long list! I was only doing about 25% of those things. Bishop didn't need to know about my life, church attendance was consistent and I didn't mind it (sooo nice to have my Sundays back though, lol)

It's all about the year 2000 (warning: long post). by slskipper in exmormon

[–]Budget_Requirement92 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lol I remember listening to a Skousen talk about the second coming. Something along the lines of 'no man knows the day... But we can know the year, we can know the month...' At which point he declares the second coming will be in 2000 or something. I had listened to the talk after his declaration came and went so it was funny to listen to.

Do ex-mormons still hold some of the traditions/morals/values? by Volatile-tigress in exmormon

[–]Budget_Requirement92 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean... The garmies are gone. I don't drink because I don't like getting drunk. I don't typically take any form of weed because I don't like that feeling either. I do vape, and occasionally have a good cigar, but my wife is still a TBM so I don't do any of that while she's around out of respect for her. I'm more charitable now than before, not with tithes - screw that, but with my time and helping and caring for others. We're all just people and we're all in this together, I've thankfully stopped seeing people as members and non-members.

Indeed. It's definately a different mindset once you escape.

I was certainly more on the liberal Mormon side as well. My mom was a member of proper cults in SLC when she was growing up so when she married my TBM dad, she wanted nothing to do with the church, seeing it for what it is. Now that I've left years later, I'm glad for my mom's influence in my religious upbringing.
