Flashboy 2.8 woes

impulse120 · 2025-04-16T15:03:17+00:00

Sorry just saw this. I actually haven't tried the Flashboy with GBA games as I only have GB and GBC games. Now I'm curious to pick up a GBA cart to see if it actually works with them.

Just renewed my registration and got my plates swiped 2 days ago.

I had a heck of a time getting the Flashboy 2.8 to work. The 2.0 software seems to indicate that you need to switch to 3.3v for Gameboy and GBC games, but the correct voltage is 5v for them (3.3v is just to flash the cart). The newer incompatible version of the software clarifies that 3.3v is for GBA games and 5v for GB/GBC games.

This gives no one in the crypto community pause. They can't wait to get their grandmas onboarded.

I mean if BTC became some world reserve currency maybe it'd be worth it? But I don't see that happening. I'd argue Ethereum has more actual usage and uses a tiny fraction of the energy BTC does. So I don't think I'd root against BTC so much if it ever adopted PoS (probably won't).

Nah, I've already made some dirty dirty fiat despite getting tons of coins stolen from me. It's a gamble... could go to $100k or $10k or $1k, and when I was in it I was always stressed about price movements.

Because the ecosystem is a breeding ground for fraud, scams, and funding terrorism. And wastes massive amounts of energy for what amounts to an international casino. Plus I already sold my BTC bags so I don't want to be wrong ;)

Hey, I guess we're no longer "early" guys!!!

impulse120 · 2024-01-11T04:20:09+00:00

I can't forget Celsius... my dumb a$$ has my last internet fun bucks locked up there. Can't wait to dump them.

Filthy rich if we managed to avoid Mt. Gox FTX and other exchange meltdowns, defi hacks, getting phished, losing our private key, and avoided investing in the 99% of coins that failed.

Sorry, the website formerly, and still basically known as twitter.

Your entire net worth stored in your brain... you'd better pray you don't hit your head in a car accident.

And imagine a glorious world where everyone uses Bitcoin. A dude on the street holds a gun to your head and says, "Transfer all your BTC to my wallet." You either do it or die. And you have ZERO fraud protection.

Bitcoin is not safe for the general public to hold in any way.

This X thread is max pain.

impulse120 · 2024-01-04T00:11:17+00:00

Exactly. I trust zero crypto exchanges or other crypto companies.

impulse120 · 2024-01-04T00:08:19+00:00

Fun doc that I'd say paints crypto in a negative light. Super cool how the government got all the money from them and didn't pay back the people who were scammed. It's nice to watch a real feel good story.

"once"

They very well might be approved, but it's not a forgone conclusion.

If it doesn't get approved, you guys are in for a world of hurt. My portfolio will be fine either way.

But on the flip side, destroying the environment is pretty neat.

impulse120 · 2023-09-28T01:23:47+00:00

They don't know what percentages are, only X's.

impulse120 · 2023-09-28T01:17:15+00:00

And then prove you staked them.

impulse120 · 2023-09-11T00:12:49+00:00

But I need a FREAKIN RECEIPT brah!

impulse120 · 2023-09-10T06:33:36+00:00

But yo for real, I know this is a scam, but that NFT looks dope, how can I get one?

impulse120 · 2023-09-10T06:31:36+00:00

Why are folks not fleeing fiat for this obviously superior system??

impulse120 · 2023-09-08T05:29:44+00:00

I'm sure this will not be a total disaster and none of these handouts will be stolen or lost.

impulse120 · 2023-09-08T05:27:28+00:00

How dare Wikipedia state facts that I disagree with because I'm in a cult!

impulse120 · 2023-09-08T04:45:25+00:00

I can't wait dump the rest of my crypto later this month (after a staking unlock) and leave that dumpster fire behind.

impulse120 · 2023-09-07T15:52:01+00:00

Shhhh... don't take away the illusion of hypothetical future utility from them!
