I can’t get physical copies new of just about any game made before the late 00s.

I’ve just stuck with AetherSx that came on my Retroid, though I’ve heard of Nethersx also. When you say Modern can run the Snowblind engine games, does that mean that fire doesn’t tank the frame rate on that version? You can’t have both classic and modern installed at the same time, can you?

He’s on the wrong side. The Empire is the United States as a whole. Specifically, the US empire during Vietnam era.

Because you’re a reactionary.

Fun fact, Facebook was caught doing the same thing with its apps. Hell, Facebook was caught FORCING YOUR MICROPHONE ON AND RECORDING YOUR CONVERSATIONS

They don’t have data outside the US. Oracle handles all TikTok data for US users locally.

Series X is amazing hardware wise, but since they keep releasing games without physical copies, I haven’t turned mine on and likely won’t for some time. The console also doesn’t really work right without internet connection. As in, it is literally impossible to set up an Xbox without internet. It’s also literally impossible to install any games without internet, which is fucking bonkers.

There’s fools all over Reddit and lemmy saying the same thing. I had a guy argue that because in 2011 60% we’re overweight in Gaza, that means today no one is starving.

Wow so cool, responding to someone taking the time to point out why your eugenicist rhetoric is definitively and provably incorrect, and you just respond with memes. You’re so nonchalant.

I mean, because it’s not true.

We have more than enough resources to feed everyone on earth. We have the land, we have the money to pay the farmers, we have the infrastructure to transport it anywhere in the world easily and quickly. The issue we’re having isn’t too many people, but a small group of people utilizing multiples of the energy they need, and dozens of multiples of the energy of the masses of the world.

You realize westerners regularly go to Gaza and don’t end up thrown off buildings, right?

Indeed.

I received both parties ballots and I did not request it. We voted for that explicitly to be the case.

The only massacre that day was by students setting soldiers on fire, and it happened outside of the square, not in it.

When I played counter strike I expected no such thing. If I wanted skins, I could go get them for free on csbanana. I expected nothing more than a game and a dedicated server client. The rest was provided by the community.

I mean, if you insist…. Where’s that knife….

A lot of them run perfectly well on original hardware too, if you happen to have a flash cart laying around you can often get the digital editions for cheap, and bigger games pop up on incub8 games and a few other spots with physical copies. I picked up The Machine, and it was probably my GOTY 2023. I put so much time into it at work on breaks, and I still haven’t gotten all the achievements.

You can buy Hellfire and Diablo on GoG, and they work great. I even used that to put Hellfire on my Anbernic Linux handheld, and that was probably the best way to play it I’ve ever tried.

This Black Myths Pod episode in turn does a great job of deconstructing that documentary, acknowledging its strengths, and pointing out where it misleads or leaves out information.

Is that guys name actually Pony Ma?

Now, my mandarin is very bad, but Ma means horse, among other things. So is this guys name horse small horse?

Edit: his Chinese name is 马化腾. Mǎ Huàténg. So his family name is indeed horse, but Pony isn’t his name, just a nickname.

All your enemies are judeo-bolsheviks. If they weren’t, they wouldn’t be your enemies, right?

Agreed with everything you say, and I don’t have any solutions you haven’t said. I would like to add, buy your nephews, cousins, kids, students, etc physical games. Buy them the games they want, too, not just the ones that you think they should have. Get them used to going to the store to look at games and game boxes. Take them to the retro game store and let them pick something out. Encourage gaming to be more than passive consumption, and try to instill more positive associations with ownership. Avoid lecturing, or trying to create negative associations with digital or subscription products, and just help them share in your passion, it’ll take you a long way.

It might help if the US stops staging war games based on assassinating their leadership and invading the country. Like, maybe they could stick to defensive war games based on protecting SK, at least.

The spin off games are fun and popular with the kids around my 8 year old brother, which is who they’re intended for.

China is a communist country, they purposefully repressed religion for quite some time, though that has eased up a lot these days. If that was why, it would have happened decades ago when people stopped being religious.

You might look into repairing the joystick you have. I recently had a similar issue with my 360 controller after it sitting in storage for many years and a good contact cleaning got it working again.

If that doesn’t work, depending on your level of confidence, you could measure the pin pitch and note termination style and see if you can find a replacement joystick module to solder in somewhere. Maybe it used the same footprint as another controller, and you can drop it in and have it work.

Either way, good luck. I hope you succeed!

Except they don’t support USB OR Bluetooth audio.

The people of Gaza have been pretty clear in their support for Hamas actions on and after October 7th.

In through the nose, out through the mouth. Expand your diaphragm on exhales, meaning your belly should extend, and compress it on inhales, meaning your belly should contract. Deep, long breaths, with each one, return your focus to your form. When you drift, and find your breathing is automatic again, and your mind has wandered, acknowledge the thought, and return your awareness to your breathing. In through then nose, belly contracting and chest expanding, hold, out through the mouth, belly expanding and chest contracting.

All that to say, manual breathing is something I think everyone should practice regularly.

The videos on the ps store are really high quality, I would definitely call them gorgeous. I have no interest in this game, but I’ll probably pick it up on sale to let my little brothers play in a year or two.

I felt like I was riding in an on rails open top vehicle through a like, society made up out of pulsating fractals. I remember going under an arch, and on top of the arch were beings also made of light and pulsating fractals, and they looked at me and spoke and fractals spilled out of their mouths.

After I got through the arch, I heard this sound like… a torn speaker driver crackling as it plays, and the sound got louder until it was like a stampede of Buffalo engulfing everything that is. I felt my eyes open as if they were always closed, and around me I saw sand in all directions. I became scared. I remember thinking, what if I can’t come back from here? And suddenly it was like I was sucked backwards through reality and deposited back into my body.

My friend who was with me and also under the influence said he saw arrows embossed on my skin pointing up towards my head, and then I became invisible for a moment, completely unseen. As quickly as I left, I returned. And we had an interesting conversation after.

They asked for 14, we’re going to strike for at least 7, and got 4 and the ability to turn 3 PTO days into sick days. Not exactly what I would call a victory, but it’s definitely better than nothing.

Do you think titles like that are a result of a severely myopic mind, unable to even comprehend why a corporation would willingly do something that their users dislike, or just clickbait?

Hm.. it’s not best practice, but that shouldn’t kill it entirely either. Ah I wish you were local, I’d love to take a look at it.

Did you disconnect the battery without shorting the two terminals together or using a metal tool? You should never ever unplug anything in a device until after you’ve unplugged the battery.

No. Opening a device is categorically NOT a warranty voiding action, by law. At least in the US. Though, in this case, it does sound like they damaged the joycon, which would make it not eligible for warranty, but it has nothing to do with opening the device.

Dude. Sobriety was so important in my radicalization and moving from disaffected and alienated to educated and principled. I didn’t realize how badly alcohol had lead me astray until things got out of hand, and now I too am multiple years sober. Keep it up!

I probably play the Pocket, the RG353V, and the Pocket Flip the most, but I really love the steam deck as a pc replacement for accessing my massive steam library without using my giant power guzzling pc.

No, which is awesome! Though I rarely go in anymore, because the audiobook selection is so great, and I mostly have time to listen at work.

Yeah, it actually is.
