I always see folks say that cats being outside is bad, that they’re a non-native invasive species.
So, I got to wondering….exactly where are cats native and non-invasive, but aren’t inside a house?” houses and dwellings for cats didn’t always exist. I don’t need to be explained to as to why cats should be inside, what I don’t understand is the missing logic about them not being outside.
I think it’s great that you’ve fostered a discussion where no one’s really angry, but there’s definitely confusion. I have a rough idea as to what you’re referring to, but without concrete examples of games, this seems more like a well-intended but uninformed rant that needed more time in the oven.
“Could”, more like “already is”. It’s a darn shame, and honestly I kind of wish the Fediverse had taken off long ago so we wouldn’t be stuck with these repositories of information being walled off by centralized tech companies
Forums are very useful for fostering discussion of gaining information. Especially in sectors like tech. As for other types of discussion, well…it can get toxic.
I sincerely doubt they'll leave the hardware business. The Switch is their most successful home console of all time, ranking third in overall video game console sales.
It's annoying to have to buy multiple consoles to enjoy the best experiences that video gaming has to offer, but I wouldn't bank on Nintendo leaving anytime soon.
I'm excited to see what they're going to showcase. The rumor mill is running rampant on Twitter that a new 2D Mario game and an SNES remaster will be shown.
Assuming these are true, I hope we're getting a 2D Mario that isn't a "New Super Mario Bros" title since that franchise is nearly 20 years old at this point. Give us something new. Call it "Super Mario Bros. 5", even. Just something that isn't part of the "New" series.
As for an SNES remaster, Super Mario RPG in a tilt-shift style Link's Awakening remaster would be lovely. A Chrono Trigger remaster in the style of Octopath or Live a Live would also be lovely.
But ultimately I'll just wait it out with hopeful optimism that they have some good stuff in the pipeline.
I really appreciate how Verge has covered this absolute shitshow. The administration is insisting on doing every stupid move possible to get their way, and destroy the communities in the chase to be a generic social TikTok clone.
Good riddance. This place is way better for my mental health.
Yeah, ISP's were given a considerable amount of money to improve internet infrastructure 30 years ago and they did not. Classify them as a utility. Heck, we should nationalize the utilities anyway.
I liked the first episode of Collision. I knew we were in for something special when an Elton John song opened up the show. The matches felt less about “get your high spots in” and more about letting the matches breathe.
Wardlow losing was really unexpected. Matthews/Andrade was amazing. Happy to see Miro back. Soho/Storm/Blue/Nightingale was fantastic, CMFTR/BC Gold was great, and Punk’s opening promo was a reminder that few are better on the mix than he is.
How this translates to AEW’s health overall is tough to say. Personally, with Punk’s promo, I’m hoping we get an AEW Civil War at some point. Those were some huge shots fired and the guy is so good at working literally everyone. It’s amazing he and Christian haven’t crossed paths
I appreciate the sentiment from most folks here that this culture is ridiculous and that we should not take part. I’ve been told the more effective way to eliminate tipping culture is to vote in elections and it was so astoundingly tone deaf. Another reason why I like it here!
Hah, I’ve done the exact same thing you did - I find myself commenting and thinking more about my discussions, and also turning to RSS feeds for my info. Life is quieter. Simpler. Less filled with bullshit.
It was inevitable that someone would try to use AI like this to make certain jobs obsolete. Sites with content like this will manipulate Google's already garbage algorithms to make it a self-consuming snake.
The only way out is to continue to encourage thoughtful discussions from thoughtful articles. AI could certainly help with information, but perspective and insight is an inherently human trait that will tune people out.
Oh I agree completely. I thought gaming would’ve been more feasible once Marzipan made it easy to install iPad apps on macOS. But again and again, the carrot is dangled.
This also means that when Biden had his colonoscopy in November of 2021, Kamala Harris officially became our first female President (for all of 45 minutes but still, technically true)
This is the answer I was looking for, thank you.
