How often can your supposed rights be violated until they’re no longer rights and just words on a piece of paper?

I meant the streaming services.

I always preferred (pirated) streaming services over local streaming

I suggest having a backup of some of your favourite media anyway. You never know when a service will be taken down.

What services are you using, if you don’t mind me asking?

I decided against using Github for my personal stuff since it’s owned by Microsoft.

I can’t help but feel a little bit smug every time it shits the bed nowadays.

To this day I think Luigi’s Mansion 3 might be the game I’ve finished that I enjoyed the least. I loved the first one (and liked the second one well enough, even though it was a bit watered down for the 3DS), just so we’re clear.

The simplified ghost catching mechanics made most of the game’s fights pretty boring, the Gooigi puzzles almost always boiled down to “I need the strength of two vacuums” or “I wish I could fit through this grate”. Also, the last boss was godawful.

Most egregiously, I think LM3 might be the most filler-stuffed game I’ve ever played. The number of times you get an elevator button only for the game to go “Haha, no” really started to piss me off. The second time fucking Poulterkitty showed up, I actually looked up a walkthrough to gauge whether there was little enough of the game left to warrant finishing it - I wanted to stop right then and there. I think Nintendo took the criticism that LM1 was too short to heart. The thing is, without all the padding, LM3 would still have been a perfectly reasonable length (maybe even still too long). With all the padding, it was an utter slog.

Edit: Also, as an inverted aiming enjoyer (there are dozens of us), why the hell can’t you invert?

I agree. I was never a fan of them removing the fantasy elements either - it made the game feel so much more generic than the first (though this might be hindsight since I first played Quake 2 many years after it came out - It’s quite possible Quake 2 is one of the reasons “generic tech base” became so generic).

There’s a sweet spot. Unpopular opinions that get upvoted need to be trivial enough to not make anybody uncomfortable or angry.

Something like “Toilet paper orientation doesn’t matter” is far more likely to be upvoted by somebody who disagrees with it than “Everything bad that happens to your children is your fault because you knew it was a possibility and had them anyway”.

You guys are getting ads?

I use Vim, which has some really handy tricks that I use somewhat often (eg, type :r! followed by a terminal command and it will add the standard output of said command to the bottom of your file).

That being said, there’s nothing wrong with Nano. Most distros come with it out of the box nowadays, and its learning curve is practically nonexistent compared to the alternatives.

Practically everything people say about imaginary numbers you could also say about negative numbers.

Also… wrong about what?

I mean, at least two billion people are Christian, so presumably they care. And that doesn’t even include the rest of us who get screwed over by Christian-conservative doublethink bullshit.

It absolutely matters.

I hear they like arrows.

Yeah, I’m never giving Nintendo another cent.

I didn’t buy a Switch 2, but the people who did are Nintendo’s biggest fans, and Nintendo have just told them in no uncertain terms “Haha, get fucked, loser”.

Time to learn how to pirate on my Switch 1.

It did, but Reddit is horribly addictive.

I really hope this ends up being the push I need to quit Reddit.

Everybody hates me. Am I really so out of touch?

No. It’s the children general populace who are wrong.

Video games are more fun than spreadsheets? Colour me fucking bamboozled.
