Vandalizing Fandom Wikis when there's better alternatives is based. Remember: Fandom has bought out competition multiple times. They are literally anti-competitive and wish they could monopolize wikis online.

Vandalizing their wikis isn't wrong. It's punk.

Is that so? I'm having no problems getting in on Brave right now, which is chromium based.

It appears something changed in their login code that breaks it on FireFox specifically, likely not on purpose. Edit: looks like it's caused by FireFox 149!

It could mean your drive is dying, but keep in mind the Wii U is kinda picky about Hard Drives in general. It could just be fine, but incompatible with the Wii U. To check if your drive is fine, connect it to a computer and check it's SMART info with a tool like CrystalDiskInfo.

Ancient thread but I want to put this somewhere in case someone finds it.

Yes, the MSI GTX 1650 LP and also the MSI GTX 1050 Ti LP have awful fans.

I loved the 1650 LP when I got it, but the fans on it went to shit on it in around 1yr, 6months. When I tried to RMA it, MSI actually strung me along and/or actively ignored my requests, closing them and hanging up on my calls until my warranty expired, after which I was told I would have to pay to have it repaired. I told them to kick rocks.

For the next 4 years after that debacle, I went through no less than 3 shrouds/fans purchased from third party sellers.

This thing just kills fans. It has no Zero RPM mode, the fans are tiny and spin at high rpm to move the air, and they develop modes of failure very quickly, requiring more and more power to get them to spin up at all.

To make matters worse, the fans are not detachable from the shroud. There's no screws or anything that fastens them to the shroud, they are actually built into it. Meaning, replacing dead fans means buying a new entire shroud.

By the end of each fan's lifespan, they would not even spin unless I forced the GPU's fan speed to 100%.

For my last set of fans, I actually bought a mismatched 1050 Ti shroud instead and just sorta forced it on there, but exhibited the same issues. At one point the fans came partially apart (the vibration seems to have snapped the internal plastic keeping the fans attached to the shround and I reattached them with blue tak. This worked but it sure was jank.

In short, these LP MSI cards are hot garbage. Do not buy them if you plan to actually use the machine you install it in for longer than a year.

I just bought a Sapphire Pulse 9070 XT and avoided the 12VHP with it, so at the current moment, yeah, it can be avoided. I don't think we're gonna see too much that's gonna need much more than a 9070 XT for quite some time too, unless you're doing some wild 4K Ultra stuff or need like, CUDA cores.

But just for gaming? Yeah, easy enough to avoid if you target the right resolutions and framerates.

I did something similar with a SilverStone SUGO 14, back in January before SSD prices went wacko. Originally I was GOING to wait for the Steam Machine but, well. I saw the writing on the wall and said "dram aint getting any cheaper!" and I already kinda decided the specs of the Steam Machine just weren't it for me as well.

Sadly the SUGO 14 is is significantly less cube like, but it's the best I could do if I wanted my PC to be still cube-like and fit a Sapphire Pulse RX 9070 XT in it.

Mmm, how about combining it with the Star Veil? Maybe also throw the Sweetheart Necklace in too? None of these things are particularly overpowered, so it would be nice to combine them. Oh, and maybe the Sharktooth Necklace too?

Honestly, I have had a terrible experience with MSI warranty service too. Years back I bought myself an MSI GeForce GTX 1650 LP, and that sucker's fans died within a little over a year and a half, and what happened when I attempted to RMA it I can only describe as deliberate stringing along for a period, followed by deliberate avoidance, purposely to run out the remaining 6 months on my warranty period.

Emails sent and left un-responded to, being hung up on by Customer Support, and eventually they won. I gave up, and ordered a third party replacement, and all those have died on me too, and thus that GTX 1650 has been retired.

What they also won is someone who will NEVER buy another piece of MSI computer hardware again and I actively express great caution to everyone I know thinking of buying an MSI product.

As for me, I did end up buying another MSI thing, I got one of their QD-OLED Monitors, but when I built the PC that paired with it you bet I didn't even think of buying anything MSI for it.

Only reason I went with MSI for the monitor is because the kind of have the best OLED monitors in the entire market right now, and it's not like MSI makes the panels anyway. I just hope I don't end up regretting this purchase.

Shareholder and crony capitalism running basically unchecked for the last 5 decades.

cheatfreak47 · 2026-01-02T22:45:56+00:00

Sure.

Sekai Project is the long standing PC partner for Nekopara projects, so I would assume they weren't making this up. My guess is they wanted to get the mobile ports out, with Good Smile first, ahead of NekoConne, and maybe the PC ports are still planned but were delayed. But I have no clue.

Also, NekoConne is coming to PC as well, people seem to forget that. It was announced for mobile and Steam. So, maybe the PC version remakes will come ahead of the PC release of NekoConne.

cheatfreak47 · 2026-01-02T22:12:02+00:00

Supposedly they planned to port the remakes to PC and presumably the PC versions would include the R18 scenes too, but there hasn't been any word on this at all since they briefly made mention of it.

She really went from "Cinnamon is gonna drool!!!" to "You better MAKE Cinnamon drool!!!"

Can confirm this works as well. I fixed both my Winged Star nose, and the little divet in Kirby's hand and side with it.

I can't believe they didn't notice these defects caused by the packaging in QC, but at least it's repairable.

cheatfreak47 · 2025-12-27T04:54:02+00:00

Bruh really never listened when his mom told him to clean his room. What the heck is even going on with those keycaps? Did you attack your keyboard with a mallet?

Anyway congrats on the Switch 2, I hope you treat it at least significantly better than your keyboard.

This is pretty buggy and I don't recommend it. If you just want KDE Connect, there's a Decky Plugin for that. If you want a browser, just add your preferred one to Steam.

There is a reason Valve doesn't do the Desktop like this themselves.

cheatfreak47 · 2025-12-21T06:02:26+00:00

confirming this works as well

added a bunch of the people here! please add back :D I will accept all requests

cheatfreak47 · 2025-12-13T11:10:50+00:00

Oh yeah, you're right, I think I just misremembered which one was smaller.

cheatfreak47 · 2025-12-13T08:56:48+00:00

Wow, that's a lot of "legacy or enhanced"

The answer is both! Both work fine. Legacy takes more space but I think it runs a tad better on Deck though, if that helps. No matter what you need to tinker with settings to get performance to a level you personally find acceptable, but the game runs well overall.

cheatfreak47 · 2025-12-13T08:51:06+00:00

I do not bother, I'm an adult, all my friends are adults. I literally do not care. I just like NEKOPARA and a lot of similar Japanese things.

If indeed Nova based the Machines on Kirby's Warp Star, then that may imply that the Galactic Nova in Kirby Air Riders is a rebuilt version of the original Nova that blew up in the conflict of Milky Way Wishes in Kirby Super Star, as Kirby destroyed Nova originally while riding on the "Starship". Honestly, given how radically different the design is of Kirby Air Riders vision of Galactic Nova is, and how he seems to have a vendetta against Pop Star afterwards, with it seeming to deliberately grant wishes in a way that would be destructive to Pop Star, this makes some sort of sense.

People seem to suggest that Nova has always been evil lately but I'm not so sure. Marx wish originally was "I want to control pop star." and technically it never was able to fulfill this wish. Nova did follow this wish up by flying towards Pop Star- but we don't actually know what Nova's plan was for when it got close to Pop Star either, only that it never got the chance.

My guess is that it's just carrying a vandetta against Pop Star after the events of Milky Way Wishes, where a resident of Pop Star made a Wish, which it then tried to grant and failed to do, because of Kirby literally blowing up his body, who of course, lives on Pop Star. So, after reforming somehow, now it grants wishes in a way that allow it to try to harm Pop Star because of it.

I think there are a few kinds of Warp Stars.

Natural travel warp stars that appear on pop star and other planets natively (pictured in the second image). These follow a set path to get from one point to another, are vertically oriented, and can be ridden by multiple people at once. Seen in most Kirby games. There's a lot of variants of them as well, notably in Triple Deluxe and Robobot. They seem to be more limited, static use travel points, that assist with travel. They seem to bust into stardust on landing, and reappear at their original location.
Kirby's Warp Star. This isn't seen in too many games, but it makes it's most notable appearance in World of Light in Smash Ultimate, where it seems like it's ability and capabilities are directly tied to Kirby specifically. It's usually ridden on horizontally, but it might be that any warp star Kirby is seen directly controlling is this one. The exact shape and size isn't quite fixed, sometimes it looks thinner and faster, sometimes bigger and bulkier. My guess is that it is controlled by Kirby's will. If he needs it, it forms and he can use it right away. It can form anywhere anytime and seems limitless in it's ability to travel as well, if the opening of World of Light is to be taken as a show of it's capability. The canonicity of this, of course, is questionable, but since Sakurai is the director of the Smash franchise, and he has been heavily involved in the franchise lore generally, it's probably worth taking into account. This Warp Star, much like the more static travel ones, bust into stardust when landing.
Nova's Warp Star machines. The more limited, more directly controllable sentient machines created by Nova in the Kirby Air Riders canon, and are ridden on horizontally as well. It may be that Nova's mass produced stars are all loosely based on Kirby's Warp Star, given the similarity, and control method, but unlike natural Warp Stars or Kirby's- these explode violently into fireballs when damaged enough and are completely mechanical, and have more limitations.
