  • As a native Cebuano speaker I would have said it’s Tagalog. The word choice is a bit odd for Cebuano as the common way to say it would be “Ingon sila”, at least in the metro Cebu dialect of Cebuano. I could be wrong though, as you mentioned there’s many dialects of it.

    Linguistically Cebuano is a distinct language from Tagalog, though they’re closely related as they descend from the same proto-language.

    Pokemon Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald only use the battery to power the onboard clock, the saves are on flash. If you look at the PCB you can see the flash chip on the left, it’s the one that’s not under the battery.

    It’s safe to replace the battery, but since the RTC will be starting from 0 again you won’t see time based events happen until it catches up to the time stored in the save. If you’re not planning on starting a new game or fixing the save file using a cart reader and save editor (alternatively a DS with GBA slot and a flash cart) there’s no point in replacing the battery.

    Edit: Fixed typos







  • I’m Gen Z and I was still “forced” to fix tech if I wanted to use it. I mean sure, I didn’t have to deal with IRQs, setting up autoexec.bat and config.sys, and so on, but if you’re not at least a little bit inclined you wouldn’t have the patience to fix things even when you’re “forced”. You’d just give up and move on. There’s always something else to do. Things have gotten easier for sure, which is reducing the exposure to “falling in the rabbit hole” but one way or another interested people will get into it.

    It’s like how cars are getting simpler to use, but you still have car guys around. We don’t say only old people know how to drive stick.

    In any case, there’s better things to use as a generational boundary; like how a single G5 piano note will trigger a very specific group of people.
