My cat: “What about the CHEEKS??”

If I hadn’t personally seen this on the internet almost 20 years ago, I would assume it’s AI generated because of how weird it is.

I am bad math but good grammar

I think whatever your stance on the ethics, trying to ban AI as a method of production is futile. Images created using AI are nearing the point of being indistinguishable from images created using other methods. Jokes from last year about how AI can’t get the number of fingers on a hand right already seem outdated. It will soon become impossible to tell the difference between AI and non-AI imagery with any certainty, and we’ve already crossed that threshold for some images. That means a ban is ultimately not going to work. There’s obviously lots of bad quality AI content out there, but there’s also lots of bad quality content out there in general. I think focusing on the quality is more relevant than the method of production.

I’m sure Nedjem’s owner would be infinitely amused that their cat is being discussed 3500 years later

Not 100% sure this would work, but what I’d try is to create a new save within the game on the emulator (using the game’s functionality, not a savestate) and shut down the emulator. Then find the resulting save file and replace it with the file from the physical cart, giving it the same file name as the file you’re replacing. The emulator should automatically find that and load it when you start up the game.

Ch-Ch-Ch-Chia!

I’m not a cartographer, but the way I’d tackle this is to drill a small hole in the globe and spray paint in through it, so that the inner surface is opaque white. Then I would put together a cheap turntable-style 3D scanner using an off-the-shelf camera (there are open source designs available for this that you can buy as a kit or print using a 3D printer, then assemble following step-by-step instructions). Then, after scanning the globe and obtaining a textured 3D model of it, it should be relatively easy to convert the globe’s texture from a spherical shape to a standard map projection using software. I don’t know what software that would be offhand, but I’m sure it exists.

According to the page, that’s using an imaginary unit called “international dollars” (which I just learned exists), which is used for comparing countries’ economies. It doesn’t reflect the real amount in US dollars. In US dollars the median US salary is just under $60,000. https://www.bls.gov/news.release/pdf/wkyeng.pdf

On mine it appears to be a regular setting under the display options called “camera cutout”. I do have developer options enabled though, so maybe that doesn’t appear for people who don’t.

Android (or at least my Galaxy) has a setting that lets you disable the portion of the screen where the notch is, which makes it essentially identical to a phone with no notch.

Agreed, I don’t hate it, but to me it’s like I’m just eating pineapple and pizza at the same time. I love both, but eating both at once doesn’t add anything for me and I don’t think the tastes go together very well. I’d enjoy either one more on its own.

At least bad things are happening to ONE bad person. Andrew Tate, my beacon of hope.

Definitely one of my least favorite aspects of them. Everyone must get a backstory, and they must all be interrelated. The galaxy’s a small place apparently.

Are you claiming to refute the hard evidence OP has presented?
