Is there a usb compatible n64 controller? Part of what makes this game such a watershed moment for 3d gaming is how the controller was designed to maximize it's potential. To this day Mario 64 is one of the best games ever made.

I've been diving most of my life as a hobby, but a few years ago I decided to give up software and start diving professionally. It was the best decision I've ever made. Now Im not wealthy by any metric other than quality of life.

I use the SSI app every day and it is truly painful. I wish I could just fix it for them. I always encourage my SSI students to paper log instead.

That is extremely common, diving is very foreign to the primitive part of our brains. It takes a high degree of self control and a positive state of mind. It is similar to yoga in its focus on breathing and stress management. If you are f

Never knew Linus was an avid diver, definitely going to give this a shot when I get back to my dive center tomorrow. Kind of regretting buying a nice new logbook the other day.

You're right, but I wasn't willing to take that risk. One of the divers in my group was already in a mild state of panic and I didn't want to chance them letting go of the wall and descending another 10m. I had a plan to deal

Depends on where you train. French Federation goes to 60 on air, which is nuts in my opinion.

it was definitely not the plan. I remember being hooked on the wall and seeing my bubbles descending behind me. That dive felt more like mountain climbing than diving.

My deepest dive on a single tank was 57m, and I wouldn't recommend that or try to repeat it. Down currents can be terrifying. You're right that 45m puts of out of range of most divers, but it is definitely still a doable dive with

45m is well within range of recreational diving, I wonder if this will become a diving destination. Personally I would love to dive ruins like this, bit the cynic in me knows that tourists would strip the location and ruin it.

The worst thing you can do for the environment is have children, but that's not changing. Cement, fossil fuels, deforestation, livestock etc are all symptoms of overpopulation and our inability to establish homeostasis anymore. I don&#

I disagree, a moon landing would be a signal to Indians and the rest of the world that India can compete on the highest technical level. I think it would go a long way towards abolishing the notion that the Indian tech community is a budget
