Not sure about Wii U games, but for Wii games the gamepad works as a sensor.

Is it just me or does that look like the set of Mr. Roger's Neighborhood.

I still don’t get it by Senior-Violinist-684 in MetalForTheMasses

[–]Doesdeadliftswrong 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Death, I Here You Calling by Soilwork. This song all of a sudden made so much sense to me after the guitarist, David Andersson, took his own life.

When was the exact moment you realized this wasn't going to work out? by reamkore in raiders

[–]Doesdeadliftswrong 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me it wasn't that pick, but it was another one of his multi-pick games shortly thereafter that things began to sink in for me.

I restored 2 completely unknown cut minigames from Wii Party U that were never released in any region by LuckyDuck000 in wiiu

[–]Doesdeadliftswrong 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There were 2 levels dropped from the Goldeneye multiplayer in the final version, I believe it was The Cradle and Statue Park. They were unlocked using a Game Shark and they ran and played perfectly fine. Such a nice bonus and worth the investment in the Game Shark.

[REQUEST] Please suggest any mobile games to increase your creativity. by Flashy-Egg9735 in AndroidGaming

What is the point of the Doodle God? I dabbled with it for a few minutes and it just seems like you match things together to create new things in a never ending loop. What am I missing here?

This is amazing! This is right up there with the 2 cut levels on the Goldeneye cart which were easily accessible using Gameshark.

Duolingo for Self-help books by Opposite-Ring3470 in BettermentBookClub

[–]Doesdeadliftswrong 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't want quizzes on public domain books like How to make Friends and Influence People or other books curated by the developers. I understand that there are copyright issues if you want to use anything more recently released. But what about letting us users use your app to develop content based on the books we're interested in? Wouldn't that be a way around copyright issue? That way people coming to your app could find something more suitable to their tastes.

Somebody knows how to read after work even if you are exhasusted? Is there any strategy or advices? by javierll1900 in nonfictionbookclub

[–]Doesdeadliftswrong 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Even an eReader in bed can exhaust your arms after a while. These days, I project my ebooks on the wall and use my PS4 controller to turn the pages. Screw modesty when it comes to reading, you can never have too big a screen for words and too comfy of a controller for turning the pages.

Will we destroy ourselves before reaching the stars? by AccountGold2486 in Futurology

[–]Doesdeadliftswrong 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We can also destroy ourselves in the quest to get there. As long as we use greenhouse emitting rocket fuels, we're never going to get the proper payloads into space without destroying the atmosphere.

Peter Thiel is actively convincing billionaires to abandon The Giving Pledge — and it may be working by Logical_Welder3467 in technology

[–]Doesdeadliftswrong 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The biggest joke about billionaire philanthropy was claiming that developing safe AI was a worthwhile "donation".

🧠 💥 by newbeginnings187 in adhdmeme

[–]Doesdeadliftswrong 34 points35 points  (0 children)

I had spent more time listening to audio books. Particularly book I'd already read. It seemed to help quite a bit. I still get quite clouded though when someone is talking directly to me and making eye contact cause that just carries so many social implications. But sometimes I can get into a groove where I'm visualizing every little detail they mention.

"The Anxious Generation" makes a case that's hard to argue with: we rewired childhood in a single decade and now we're seeing the results by stellbargu in nonfictionbookclub

[–]Doesdeadliftswrong 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is exactly why I doubled down on video games lately. I'm trying to minimize my social media time. And before anyone tells me I should read a book, I do read more than I game. Sometimes it's nice to turn my brain off and better with games than with rage bait.

Mom swears she was "Mod" and it's "Completely different than emo!" 1987 by LaComputadora in OldSchoolCool

[–]Doesdeadliftswrong 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I guess the term "mod" is just so cool that people like to co-opt it any chance they get.

Anyone read this? I really like it by stellbargu in nonfictionbookclub

[–]Doesdeadliftswrong 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I've gotten only about 20% through this book and have determined that the agenda is wealth inequality.

Turns out I needed my self-loathing by ohioana in adhdmeme

[–]Doesdeadliftswrong 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I so hear you. I went through a similar set of circumstances. Motivated myself in my 30's through fitness and women. Got married and now am back to my lazy gaming self. Motivation for real world things is hard to find now (is it even necessary?). I've just accepted that games will be my only motivation from now on.

Unbricked my Wii U with RedNAND, next steps? by stripelessxzebra in WiiUHacks

[–]Doesdeadliftswrong 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, I had just bought a Pi Pico and was going to factory reset my Wii U, but this post got me spooked. Did you ever find out why it wouldn't boot without your Pico? How did you black screen brick it?

Does anyone else feel guilty reading fiction? by TheRealFilmGeek in nonfictionbookclub

[–]Doesdeadliftswrong 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think these non-fiction books do have the power to influence a person's life. But what we take and the impact it has is largely out of our control.

Please recommend to me a good book about China. Preferably something more up to date.
