They are not mapped, though; they only appear on the drop-down list of the address bar of the explorer as that’s where I access from 👍 I haven’t tested cmd but with wsl.exe everything works just as fast as I’d expect. In fact that’s how I’ve been going around whenever I need to do file stuff 😅

and i think it’s interesting that the version with the coat of arms has stuck around as the “true” version. like, 🇩🇪🇵🇱🇷🇴🇫🇮🇻🇪 are all the civil flags with no coat of arms, while 🇩🇴🇭🇹🇸🇻🇪🇸 are all the state flag.

now according to wikipedia, the coat of arms is only required for state and war use. technically civilians can fly the same flag without the coat of arms and it is a perfectly cromulent dominican flag - just like poland, argentina, nigeria and many others. but the coat of arms is cool

i used to think the coat of arms in the dominican republic flag was cringe because of how complex it is compared to all other countries, but I’ve grown to love it (especially in the current trend of corporate minimalism). i think it’s kinda swag just like the vatican city or mexico flags.

dominican republic flag. it has four quadrants that are blue, red, blue, red in clockwise direction starting on the top left. a white cross goes in between separating all quadrants. in the center there is a crest of arms that would be too complex to explain in detail, but it includes plants, spears, smaller copies of the flag, ribbons with different messages and an open bible.

she’s such a delightfully mid 2000s anime girl

nurse angie from trauma center: under the knife for nintendo ds. she’s a blond anime girl with green eyes and long flowy hair. she’s making a determined expression but due to the cutesy artstyle she kinda looks like she’s pouting. she’s wearing a futuristic looking nurse uniform and hat. the image is a photo of the nintendo ds display, so the lcd pattern of the individual pixels is somewhat noticeable.

the nintendo DS occupies a very interesting niche in the smartness of Devices:tm: where it does have a built-in operating system but its only job is to set things up before the actual software you want to run fully takes over. in this it’s similar to a DOS machine or an aliexpress microcontroller

…including cardio and strength training to help with the third panel situation (and in general make your current life more enjoyable to live)

it’s a graph. the y axis says “muscle mass and strength”. the x axis says “age”. neither of them have units. the graph is split into three sections: early life, adult life and older life. the curve of muscle mass and strength has a function of age starts low, peaks right at the end of early life, and slowly declines throughout adult and older life. it splits in two (labeled “range of mass and strength in individuals). the top line declines much slower. the bottom line falls faster until getting under a horizontal dashed line labeled “disability threshold”

this feels like watching the tip of an iceberg drift past… asynchronous matching… swap pending… this feels loosely relevant: i was a bit annoyed at pokemon puzzle challenge for the gbc for locking the cursor out while a match is disappearing so that i *can’t* slide a piece into the void left

screenshot of pokemon puzzle challenge for the gameboy color. since the character limit here is 2000 i can elaborate on what i mean. so you see how the player in the screenshot is about to match 5 stars vertically right? the purple diamond would move to the right, and then the heart above would fall down. the move i was trying to bust is to move the diamond back into its original spot, but before the heart falls, so that it ends up underneath the heart. this SEEMS like it should be possible because the stars disappear one at a time and there’s a brief moment before the heart falls. but alas, it isn’t meant to be
