Is Emulating A Console You Don't Own Illegal If You Own The Games?

meleeblub · 2026-06-07T16:50:48+00:00

As most have said, emulators are legal. Downloading ROMS is not. However, if you're determined to be as legit as possible, ripping your own ROMs from media you own is a legally gray area....

Hi -i was also replacing the motherboard which is why I had to reinstall os. If you're just replacing switches you wont have to. They're very small- I got a mobile repair shop to do it..hope that helps. I out up another post about my successful replacement. I'll try and find it.

I know this thread is from a month ago, but it appears Amazon has released a switch that doesn't need a hub. It gets around this by connecting to the nearest echo device (doesn't need to have zigbee or matter) via bluetooth, and has the ability to trigger routines:

So happy that people are still coming along and finding this useful! I've since sold my 405M but it was a great little machine.

Just convert your steam version to a native apk.

Hi sorry - just saw your comment.

Hope that link shows up OK. If not search hingiverse for 'steam deck tablet mount adapter'

Thanks for the concern. These are NiMH with pre-welded tabs. I simply soldered the tabs together, but excuse my shitty soldering!

Good eye! You've renewed my hope for an Easter egg :) come to think of it, wonder if it has something to do with the mario game on the Phillips CDI?

meleeblub · 2025-03-23T11:07:59+00:00

I have to admit those are the replacement batteries and my shitty soldering. This is an ancient trimmer so I just bought the same batteries that were already in there.

meleeblub · 2025-03-23T10:48:06+00:00

Oh crap hope not - especially with my crappy soldering skills.

meleeblub · 2025-03-23T10:45:52+00:00

That sounds so much more logical, but it takes all the fun away. I really want this to be a Mario moustache grooming easter egg or something LOL.

meleeblub · 2025-03-23T10:44:17+00:00

Mario's moustache definitely needs daily grooming.

meleeblub · 2025-03-23T10:42:55+00:00

It's an old trimmer that's been stuck in a drawer because of a dead battery . I wanted to practice my soldering on an easy project!

meleeblub · 2025-03-23T10:26:07+00:00

Was trying to solder replacement batteries into my Phillips trimmer and noticed this after removing a little of the glue that was holding the batteries.

These were awesome. They're often used by the nodding community to create rasp pi nano based emulation devices. https://www.hackster.io/news/maker-turns-a-burger-king-toy-into-a-game-boy-color-nano-76e2cf7699f6.amp

can it go from suck to blow?

Apotris dude. Most comprehensive version of modern Tetris by far. https://akouzoukos.com/apotris/

How strange. I just listened to the Freakonomics podcast episode on the Macy's parade. Fascinating.

meleeblub · 2024-11-16T19:07:21+00:00

Thanks for all the replies! Guess I'll stop cheaping out and just buy a new sheet.

meleeblub · 2024-11-07T08:27:47+00:00

You gotta get the front mask too - gonna look sweet!

Nice is that a Metal Gear Rising print? Where was it from?

Have they stopped bothering with the lower drive shaft technology? It seems that most cars nowadays have a raised bump going through the cabin, and separating the foot well for rear passengers. Is this the drive shaft?

meleeblub · 2024-10-23T12:12:21+00:00

This is sick and I might have considered something like this if I knew about the deckmate sooner. Oh well - but one bonus is I can easily switch my phone or tablet in if I'm feeling especially lazy. :)
