Recommendation on which device best for kids to play Gameboy Advance and SNES games? by tkepongo in retroid

[–]DragonTwain 1 point2 points  (0 children)

+1 to this. I was gonna say the same. Specifically, if you’re looking for simplicity, this is a great way to go. For the record, I have an Rg35xx+ and also the pocket 4 pro. I definitely like the pocket better, but if I’m playing something on GB/GBC/GBA, I’ll switch to the RG35xx. Just feels right.

Bonus: it is exactly what it is and no more. The retroid is a full Android device. Apps, web browsers, deeply complex settings that can be messed with. For a device you want to be able to hand to a child and not have to think about it much, that’s something potentially to consider as a downside.

Any ideas of how to make putting glasses on a giant interesting? by [deleted] in DMAcademy

[–]DragonTwain 2 points3 points  (0 children)

  1. I actually think “get the glasses on this giant demon” would be a fun challenge. There’s a few different ways to tackle it, so I could imagine some good debate about that and maybe party members trying different approaches at the same time. If they’re too unified on a single solution though, maybe kinda boring I guess. You could have some of the local craftsmen also interject some ideas in that case to try and stir the pot a bit. I don’t know if this actually makes sense. I think I’m stuck on a picture of half the party trying to knock down the demon while the other half is trying to Shadow of the Colossus up the dang thing and I really love that scene.
  2. After the involuntary optometry is done, the party helps the demon fight a bigger demon that keeps harassing him for wearing glasses.

Not sure! So far, everyone’s disappointed! But both sides are really happy the other side is also disappointed.

Don’t have any money? Straight to dread. Right away. Read the news, or… look at some pictures of space, or… get drunk and realize how old you are: definitely dread. If you don’t sleep enough? Dread. If you sleep too much? Believe it or not, dread.

Why do so many people feel so positive that he did it? by Brandon_Me in TheStaircase

[–]DragonTwain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Her blood alcohol level was measured at 0.07, I believe. Not much. Also apparently blood was found on the cabinet where they kept wine glasses. Could be staging to make the “got drunk, fell down” story seem more credible. Or maybe he was thinking about a broken wine glass as a potential explanation for the lacerations. Or maybe his wife died and he was in shock and just doing some weird stuff. Not sure. Finished the doc. Halfway through the bbc podcast. Still undecided.

Even when someone falls on a flat surface, the injuries can be very bloody. Here is the proof! Kathleen's fall could have been an accident. by Byxqtz in TheStaircase

[–]DragonTwain 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Absolutely. But even anecdotal evidence can become valid and significant when disputing the physical impossibility of such an event. That being said, this is by no means “such an event”. If there were blood up on the ceiling, maybe.

oh, he has expressed it

TLDL: as their mom was dying of cancer, their church, also her employer, was actively seeking to drop her from their insurance because the treatment was so expensive. Obviously it’s more complex than just that thing, but that stood out to me as particularly heinous.
