But on the N64, Princess Peach and Bowser have become so realistic

Play it. The money’s already spent. Avoid giving them money for anything else in the future. No ethical consumption under capitalism, so just do the best you can.

I wish Infamous 2 didn’t require a NASA computer to run well.

Both governments suck, but the US’s currently does more. So I’d agree.

It doesn’t specify, but if everyone could see it the implications would be more pressing than the question itself. If only one person, or just a select few people, in the world can see it it’s not a widespread privacy violation. Just like only a select few people are (supposed) to have access to private information in the real world for it to not be a privacy violation.

Presumably with questions like others can see different stats if they chose one. And even if only you saw it you could be super unethical and MAKE it a widespread privacy violation by showing social security, credit card, etc. info and stealing whatever you could as much as you could.

Yeah, you can usually tell whether they’re just playing along or trying to start a fight.

No, not really. There are a LOT of very unempathic people who are super easy to scam (MAGA), and being empathetic doesn’t mean you fall for scams easily. You’d want something like a gullibility score for that.

I thought that only you can see this stat, not everyone else. It’s an issue of privacy violation otherwise.

I feel like it’s the responsibility of world leaders who claim to support to democracy to strongly condemn governments like the US that are being blatantly fascist as well as the systems that are strengthening its presence in their own countries. They’re the ones giving the Yanks a free pass by handling them with kid gloves!

“Why would I want more people to like me? Have you met people??”

I keep seeing this story all over my news feeds and YouTube recommendations. Glad it’s being put out there, at least!

Sometimes playing the straight man and taking the joke seriously is part of the fun.

I think it’s disingenuous to lump store names in with ads. Yes, they’re technically advertising that the store is there, but that’s actually useful information.

I’ve been using computers since the Apple IIe, so I’m familiar with using PCs. I’m no expert by any means, but I’m at least competent with them. My first emulator was Nesticle in 1997, so I’ve been emulating in some form or another for almost 30 years now. Using a PC in anything other than a corporation-approved way seems to be becoming a lost art amongst the masses, but I’m always happy to see when someone is willing to learn!

I like the name!

What is that bird even supposed to do?

T&A.

Yeah, I know Nintendo’s business practices suck, but this stuff’s relative. When the Switch 2 launched, you could get a Steam Deck for $400 and it was easily a better choice overall. Things have changed considerably now. The fact is, if someone with no dedicated gaming hardware and no technical knowhow wanted to get into gaming right now and money was a factor, The Switch 2 is the best option currently, even after the $50 increase. It will also have at least 6 years of upcoming support, unlike the PS5.

PC is always the best option in general, of course, but it comes at a high price and necessitates having some technological skill. It’s not for everyone.

If you want to play Switch 2 games and are okay with getting a non-OLED at the cheapest price a Switch 2 will ever be, get one before the price increase. If you’re okay with paying more for an OLED model, wait until they inevitably release one.
