[QUOTE=B!N4RY;52158172]No, hardware platform dies when it has no appeals or games that stands out. Nintendo platforms has plenty of unique games that keeps its products alive.[/QUOTE] It's currently just overshadowed by other stuff and made redundant by the 3DS. Flashcarts arent popular right now due to the whole "could brick your 3DS" thing cuz Nintendo. Once the 3DS goes away and a bit of time comes up, people will start showing interest in the DS again and things will ramp up. It just comes down to needing some time.
You can still find em on eBay. I have an old R4 3DS I'm still using tho
[QUOTE=Teddybeer;52158107]Sort of illegal and now you only can get them here in shady webshops.[/QUOTE] I got mine from a legitimate business, even had an ABN. Totally random, but their business email was hooked up to windows messenger, I remember having a few random conversations with who ever managed the account. Good thing they weren't a paedophile, I was too young for that shit [editline]28th April 2017[/editline] [QUOTE=Dr. Evilcop;52158203]You can still find em on eBay.

I have an R4i Gold but they put an expiry date on the firmware and stopped releasing updates ages ago so I have to keep setting the date back a year to get it to boot.
My old R4i stopped reading MicroSD cards :( Really need to clean the contacts of that thing.
I have a legit R4 and a DSTwo lying around somewhere. I wasted so much time on IRC homebrew clients back in the day.
[QUOTE=Dr. Evilcop;52158203]You can still find em on eBay. I have an old R4 3DS I'm still using tho[/QUOTE] eBay banned the sales of flashcarts years ago. Any listing you see on eBay won't be up for very long.
[QUOTE=garychencool;52158071]For some reason, some web page tabs in Chrome would randomly loose scrolling abilities, unless you drag the scroll bar on the right side of the page. Refreshing the page doesn't fix this.[/QUOTE] i've had that problem. shit's annoying i just close the tab and reopen it to fix it
[QUOTE=Teddybeer;52158226]Used to have a legit R4 ds.[/QUOTE] I still have one and it's legit but I don't have any firmware for it. The firmware I've tried just doesn't boot so it's probably not for the same card. IIRC the official R4DS site went down a while ago so I don't know where to go.

[QUOTE=garychencool;52158460]That's kinda dumb tbh[/QUOTE] My guess is the idea was so to force people to upgrade their firmware to the latest. It just has the downside of, well, uh, everything.
[QUOTE=wingless;52158493]My guess is the idea was so to force people to upgrade their firmware to the latest. It just has the downside of, well, uh, everything.[/QUOTE] It'd be a fine idea if they just removed the timebomb in their last update...
[QUOTE=Lyokanthrope;52158584]It'd be a fine idea if they just removed the timebomb in their last update...[/QUOTE] yeah, the least they could do is do that..
[QUOTE=garychencool;52157754]I would have just asked them for the font :v:[/QUOTE] If it's like any company I've done freelance work for, they have no idea what the font is.
[QUOTE=elitehakor;52158271]i've had that problem. shit's annoying i just close the tab and reopen it to fix it[/QUOTE] yeah that fixes it for me too

Fucking useless old AMD drivers taking up 8gb of my SSD
[QUOTE=TrafficMan;52161345]Fucking useless old AMD drivers taking up 8gb of my SSD[/QUOTE] 8GB of Game Shortcuts [editline]29th April 2017[/editline] I wonder how many you would need for that :thinking:
[QUOTE=Scratch.;52161406]8GB of Game Shortcuts [editline]29th April 2017[/editline] I wonder how many you would need for that :thinking:[/QUOTE] Going off the fact that a shortcut is about 750 bytes (on windows)... About eleven million something :v:
[QUOTE=Scratch.;52161406]8GB of Game Shortcuts [editline]29th April 2017[/editline] I wonder how many you would need for that :thinking:[/QUOTE] No, 8GB of every version of the driver and all associated files since I last reformatted
Sounds like you need a bigger ssd
Life is easier with an SSD, life is even easier with a bigger SSD.
[QUOTE=garychencool;52161639]Life is easier with an SSD, life is even easier with a bigger SSD.[/QUOTE] Being able to work with 2TB of flash is the best thing ever. Unfortunately I really need a new SSD in my desktop to replace my 128GB 830.
I've been thinking about replacing my 480gb Intel 730 sometime
I know almost everyone here has a ThinkPad, and I may need help on choosing one. I'm wanting to throw Kali on one so I can continue studying InfoSec, any suggestions on what I should be looking for? [editline]28th April 2017[/editline] Got a bid on a T430 with no HDD, ends in a day and it's cheap. I'll try my luck.
[QUOTE=garychencool;52161639]Life is easier with an SSD, life is even easier with a bigger SSD.[/QUOTE] Prices have really settled down now, though - bought a 60GB Agility 3 for ~$100 back in late 2011, bought an 250GB EVO 840 for ~$125 in late 2014, and now 2.5 years later, an EVO 850 of the same size sits at ~$115 - obviously there's an increase in speed as well, but it'd be nice if they had dropped more.

Even I can't stray from it's temptation. It's like succubus
What I wouldn't give for an X220 with a 1440p IPS screen and a Kaby/Sky Lake or Ryzen processor and Thunderbolt replacing ExpressCard
