Is this wholesome or scumbag?

Yes, exactly as you've described. The specific combination of Jokers here is making things confusing (and that's the point of the meme). Try taking each issue individually:

Straight can be made with a card gap. So A Q J 9 7 counts as a straight. So the hand will at least be a straight and all 5 cards will score on this basis.

Flush can be made with 4 cards; and spades/clubs count as the same suit. Q J 9 7 count as the same suit and are enough to make a flush. Even though the ace doesn't count towards the flush, it will still count as the straight. If there was no ace then the hand would still be a straight flush.

The way the game scores is tricky sometimes. It gets particularly annoying when I've levelled up flush and my hand also happens to contain 3 of a kind. Then the game counts it as a 3 of a kind instead and counts much lower chips/multiplier.

All 5 cards will be counted in the straight flush. It's a straight (with one card gaps) and a flush (with 4 of the "same" suit).

What a non-story. "That thing they said they were doing, they're still doing it". Cool.

Ace will get counted as part of the straight.

I wonder what passport people like you hold? This sounds like passport privilege. Those with "good" passports get to travel where they want without a thought.

There are many countries where they scrutinise where you're going to be staying and how you're going to pay. You can't apply for any visa without giving proof of accommodation bookings and showing bank statements.

I've been to America before Trump and there were plenty of questions at the border about where I was going and to see my confirmed hotel bookings, and I went with a "good" passport (UK) at the Canadian border.

I agree with your comment....except for the part about a small learning curve. The learning curve is steep and difficult. You've got to be willing to jump in as an enthusiast and not a casual user. This is not the choice for the vast majority of normies (as you rightly conclude). The saving grace for Linux will be pre-installed systems with extremely polished UI's (like the Steam Deck).

I'm highly motivated to stay on Linux, but there's still a list of open issues for me (this is a year and a half after adoption....I'm just living with these limitations now, and there are a couple more I've added to my list of unsolvable problems since).

As amusing as this story is, I'd like to point out for those not from UK: the Daily Mail is worth less than used toilet paper and it is likely that this story is distorted and exaggerated to the point of fiction. This rag thrives on their outrageous stories being circulated like this on social media.

AI won't reverse enshitification, but it is one solution in this sense:

The internet is too far gone. It's all bots and advertising and disinformation and exploitation and data harvesting. People still seem to trust content on the internet for some reason. AI will sort that out by making the internet so unreliable, people will have to distrust it to the extent they should.

A retro gaming handheld console has been amazing for me and I want to recommend it (lemmynsfw.com)
 

cross-posted from: https://lemm.ee/post/61065843

This little handheld console has been so great. My PC and Steam Deck must be so disappointed with me.

Retro consoles set up video

I had been following r/SBCgaming for a while and never felt the need to play very old console games. But now it seems that these consoles have really come a long way in what they can play. I saw reviews for the Retroid Pocket 5 and thought it looked amazing. Then I saw the prices of the Retroid Pocket 4 pro and it was a no brainer.

I bought the Retroid Pocket 4 Pro on eBay for £120 (probably could have gotten it cheaper, but I rushed to buy this). The fact that such a tiny and pocketable handheld can run Nintendo Switch games (less demanding ones) really blows my mind. I carry this with me everywhere. It fits in pretty snug trouser pockets and is only slightly bigger than my phone (although my phone is an S23 Ultra with a chunky case). I’ve had it for over 2 weeks and I’m still in the honeymoon phase and using this instead of my gaming PC or Steam Deck. I’m discovering consoles I never owned (3DS and Wii games). The fact that it plays Android games as well is such a great bonus (mainly Balatro with save game sync online) is such a great bonus. It has WiFi 6, hall effect analog sticks (much better than the Switch!), an IPS display, headphone port, analog triggers, bluetooth 5.2 and a decent battery. This this has no business being this good.

For anyone else interested:

· If you’re looking for an affordable, pocketable console with good performance then the Retroid Pocket 4 Pro is amazing and I would recommend it. Buy this on eBay as people are unloading these to upgrade to the new console.

· If you want better performance then the Retroid Pocket 5 has a better SOC and much better screen, but is twice the price and much less pocketable. Order on AliExpress when there’s a sale/coupons.

· Buying a console like this is a bit like adopting Linux.... You’ve got to be willing to tinker and troubleshoot. It took me hours to set it up (use this guide) and I still haven’t sorted out Vita emulation.

This is a device I didn’t know much about and really didn’t expect to enjoy this much. If you haven’t come across these little consoles, definitely take a look! If you want to test the waters and see if this is for you, then starting with emulation on your phone will is a good way to start.

I made another leverless controller for Street Fighter (imgur.com)
 

I previously posted this.

I really like Street Fighter and I like making things.....so both interests have combined and my wife thinks I've got a problrm: https://i.imgur.com/OvFO47j.jpeg https://i.imgur.com/cSUfHDl.jpeg

Just don't ask me my ladder rank.

So I took inspiration from Daigo. I figure more buttons = more ladder points

White custom layout keyboard (i.imgur.com)
 

I previously posted my custom layout keyboard which I use at home. I got fed up of the different layout at work so I made the same thing to have consistency. Really happy with the result. I'm trying to set up macros now to make annoying tasks at work faster.

Been thinking of doing this for over a year and finally got round to it. Found parts. Spent hours soldering, lubricating, stuffing with foam and programming QMK. So happy with the final result. It's a joy to use.

Gateron yellow switches. YMDK PCB, backplate and case. Ali Express keycaps.

It's a budget build and none of this is high end......but it has still worked out really well.

I've really liked hitbox controllers for Street Fighter 6. I've been really happy with how they've turned out and they're a joy to use. If there's interest I can post the build process/instructions/guide.

Also would be good to grow the community if you're interested: [email protected]
