As much as they (alt right/conservatives) talk about being censored. I don't think any u.s democrat elected official has ever went this far against their networks, as much as they disliked their views. This doesn't look good.

‘Heartbreaking’: 2-year-old girl dies after being hit by car on beach in c/fuckcars@lemmy.world

This wouldn't happen with public transit. At the very least it is much much less likely.

I feel like cars should be either heavily restricted at beaches or banned. If someone is at a beach playing in the sand and normal beach activities and a car could cause this type of distress. If not banned there should at the least be a more clearly visible parking lot seperated from the beach.

The DS lite is a low cost and slick looking portable gaming console. (retrofed.com)
 

Even when it first released the price for the value it had at the time was low. Especially compared to modern consoles like the PS5, or Steam Deck.

It's small, and looks really simplistic. Even features a touch screen.

Games on the DS have a sorta in between ps1 and N64 graphics. Having sharper looking textures compared to the N64.

One game in particularly to play on it to get some of the best out of its specs, is Lego Star Wars complete saga for the DS looks and plays surprisingly console-like on the small screen and lower specs of that system.

Also get any of sport and mini game compilations. Mario Party, Wario Ware, and Mario & Sonic at the Olympic games. You get many games in one title why not?

How to repair your non responding L and R buttons on a DS lite. (might work on other DS models as well but don't quote me) (retrofed.com)
 

I recently ran into this but the fix is simple and doesn't necessarily require you to take the handheld apart.

3 things to try to get your L and R responding again.

  1. blow into and around the shoulder area space. It's as simple as clearing possible dust that might just simply be preventing your l and r button to click down.

  2. press the specific L or R button that isn't responding in a rapid motion and try pressing in different spots, like the middle or from the left and right side. (press about 30 times) Try to avoid press it hard where you might risk breaking it.

  3. sometimes you can also just kinda press down and listen into to how it clicks and if you feel around while pressing down a few times you can sometimes kinda press it back into sync so it responds again. It's hard to explain this part it but I think you'll get the idea maybe.

I recently just got a DS lite just this past April it was used but in good condition the battery on it still functions. When I ran into this issue I raged untill I found out some ways to "calibrate" the shoulder buttons back to responding to presses as a player would expect.
