i wouldn’t consider that to be too terrible. It’s beautiful and you can entertain yourself nearly endlessly outside of the narrative.
Unfortunately for me I last played 76 to see what had changed. And I’d definitely go mad since i’ve basically done and seen it all outside of some builds i want to try.
Fired Marathon and Destiny 2 devs supposedly said similar. Hmm…
Saber who? adds to ignore list on Steam
Also have to take into account that the early 8-bit systems from Japan were often marketed towards children in the US. They would ramp up the difficulty of games - which were usually too expensive for kids to purchase on their own - to bring more longevity and perceived value. Games were viewed as expensive at a time where “Kill your television” was a common mantra, when parents wanted their kids playing outside as much as possible, and the consequences of Reagonomics was coming into full effect.
So Nintendo played it safe for a very long time (even more than they do now) and still got a lot of pushback and flack from conservative parents.
Also, turn off biometrics and disable all data sync. Disable bluetooth and wifi. Never put PIN in within visible range to prevent shoulder and camera surfing. Refuse to input PIN if demanded. If they stick you in a room, don’t touch anything. If they try to build rapport, invoke your fifth amendment right and demand to speak with legal council. Be a broken record if you have to. Staying silent isn’t enough in some states.
Never assume this is safe enough.
If possible just get a cheap, dumb phone only used for travel. Have an innocuous phrase you can say to your loved ones if you get busted that indicates you’re compromised. Cuz they’re probably gonna go after them too.
I believe you. I’ll try on my other machines later. fwiw shows “bad media error” on Voyager app for lemmy and mobile Safari.
Nope.
Togepi. Just too dang cute. I had the little animated figure. Maybe still do somewhere… And Psyduck since he’s basically my spirit animal.
My SP is in pretty good shape. I’ve only had to replace the battery and got an Everdrive for it. However, I am wary of taking it outside of my house since it’s not exactly easily replaceable.
I picked up a Brick Hammer because it was close enough to the same experience with of course, a lot of improvements. But also because it wasn’t packed with unnecessary things like joysticks, etc. The buttons are almost perfect too, which i am super picky about. If this had been out around that time it would’ve been a tough decision.
Oh damn, I forgot about acme. Plan 9 is a trip.
vim is basically my foreverhome at this point. I feel clumsy trying to use most other things. But I also like emacs shortcuts and learned a bunch of them unwittingly via bash having that mode set out of the box.
The flip flop grifter club including herself, Margo, Rogan, Tucker, and Elon are irredeemable no matter how they try to spin it. Absolute dirtbags.
Around here the bands were popular but most people just dressed in the usual thrift store punk rock or hardcore attire. Kids with the getup were considered something else and referred to as scenesters.
IIRC The Civil Rights Lawyer from Audit the Audit is helping him out. Shit is fucked if it has his attention. Hope it turns out ok.
You don’t have to snore to have it.
I jumped after PS3. I logged in one day to find a message that the Smash Brothers clone I enjoyed was removed from my library and the servers shut down. Just, out of nowhere. Also, the low frame rate and FOV in some games started giving me motion sickness consistently. I do miss the simplicity of owning consoles and the excitement of new hardware releases.
The US release I’d occasionally rent for my SMS always fascinated me though i was a bit too young to really know wtf to do. I remember it was very difficult and the random encounters were brutal, but there was so much to explore and see. And boy was the box art neutered to hell compared to this beautiful graphic design.
Marketing? dbrand is bizarre.
This always baffled me. It really was so lazy and boring with the sets. It is weird when you think about how they had all those creative engineers making frickin’ killbots at their disposal. Let them eat… But no, just flat areas and stupid hammers and floor saws too slow and weak to do anything… so everyone makes indestructible wedges to push other bots up on the edge, or a spin-hammer that is undefeatable.
Oh yeah, when you put it that way… I do have some survival skills from growing up in the country, but the culture is what’d probably do me in. I’d misunderstand someone and get waxed pretty fast most likely.
