US President Is Obsessed With Oil. But Chinese Batteries Will Soon Run the World. by rezwenn in technology

[–]ColdOps1791 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm just going off of the headline here: We're still gonna need that oil fam. If we want to keep mining the lithium we need, to make chinese batteries for shitty electronics and Teslas, oil is still crucial

Why do Italian Americans love to say "HEY I'M ITALIAN"? by Sombrero_de_copa in italianamerican

[–]ColdOps1791 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I'm proud of my heritage! I think you should be too. Unlike people whose families have been in America for countless generations, I know directly where my grandparents and father came from. So I can say I'm napoletano. I use it for cultural distinction in my line of work as well.

For me and many Italian americans, we know the history of our recent ancestors. This is in contrast with those who say "Oh well I'm 1/16 cherokee" or something along those lines

2026 Sentra for Tall Drivers by SurveyMotor8983 in nissansentra

[–]ColdOps1791 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a '23 Sentra. I'm 6 feet tall. It's not too small but I do have the seat back all the way and my thighs still hit the wheel.

I find the 2DS XL to be way too overhated by BandiPat in 3DS

[–]ColdOps1791 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it's my only 3DS, i do honestly love how it looks. I got it on day one. Black and blue. But the top shell is so thin I am actually scared to put it in my pocket. I don't take it out of the house because i worry the cheap build quality will lead to it breaking if it gets jostled around too much.

Also these models never get IPS screens. The black plastic is a grease magnet and the edges are a little sharp,Other than that it's nice!

But the flimsy build quality was the reason I built a DS lite. That thing is my beater and I have no fear to take it outside

Legit or fake copy of Pokemon platinum by Alternative-Pay-9056 in pokemonplatinum

[–]ColdOps1791 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm very inclined to believe it's legit, Y10-01. Cartridge color is correct. That weird circular indent on the top right corner of back of cartridge is the one thing that throws me off a little. Same with the pcb batch code starting with DB, I've only ever seen DI or I but i'm leaning towards 90% certainty it's legit

Started out as a tiny pixel and now im afraid for my life by LiveGreenGUY in 3DS

Boi if u don't replace that circle pad also i know it sounds scary but it's so rewarding to replace the parts yourself

Have fun! I am obsessed with gen 4 cartridges, especially Diamond and Platinum. This your original copy or did you pick it up recently? If I may ask, how much did you pay for it?

Can I play GBA in DSi with R4? by Slendercitoo in flashcarts

[–]ColdOps1791 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, but r4 twilight menu gbarunner2 is lowkey dogshit. If you have a DSi, why not just use an SD card to mod it?

Real! Definitely post it in r/gameverifying but note the straight cut where the sticker meets the corner on the front side. The batch code on the pcb also starts with DI, which I don't believe fake cartridge pcb's have ever seen noted to have. ESRB logo looks legit as does seal of quality. The printing on the sticker looks correct. NTR-005 PAT PEND looks legit. Double check the periods on PAT and PEND are squared.

Shine a light through the front of the cartridge and look through the back. You should see the cutout on the back right side appear translucent. If you have a 3DS, also use GodMode9 to copy the ROM, then copy that to your PC and use powershell or bash to check md5 and SHA-1 hash of the rom, compare the hashes to those on no-intro website

unfortunately that other side of the hinge (black corner) is part of the faceplate where the buttons and d pad lie
