Bystander syndrome. YOU are the one that has to call 911!

Nintendo has never attempted to be a graphical competitor to Sony or Microsoft. It wasn’t their MO in the 90s, 00s, 10s, or 20s. Assuming that buying a Nintendo console should put you into a game market that looks like Playstations or Xbox’s is foolhardy. You buy a Nintendo console because you like Nintendo games. Their library is not lacking whatsoever. There are dozens and dozens of quality 1st party titles for the Switch. How you feel about their corporate persona is a different conversation.

The 9th generation has largely been a failure. Sales of consoles can be explained by FOMO and mid-pandemic desperation for anything new. The rate at which people are buying games, compared to the rate at which quality AAA games get developed, contrasted by the price of new AAA games, and you are literally choking out the industry. People have never been less interested in graphical fidelity as they are in 2024, and more and more people are becoming familiar with the PC ecosystem having spent a lot of time using one for remote work and school. People are finally starting to understand that digital only games are not a great investment. Games like Minecraft and Fortnite have never been more popular. Interest in the Switch 2 is middling at best. And most people see Xbox’s days being numbered. AMD only wins if people buy more consoles, and at this point, the PS5 pro isn’t really winning anyone over and those that wanted a regular PS5 already have one.

On a semi related note, if you’ve never seen The Insider or Thank You For Smoking, watch those movies asap.

It’s a museum. And the company that has the most amount of untouched Super Nintendos out of anyone wasn’t able to source a working Super Nintendo to showcase Super Nintendo games at the Nintendo Museum.

What if your hypothetical was real? Then you’d really have a strong argument!

Imagine not knowing the law or thinking that it doesn’t apply to you. There’s a reason why emulation has been around for so long but Yuzu got shut down pretty damn quickly.

I mean, yeah, he was generally always a villain in things. It wasn’t until Goof Troop that he just became simply “Abusive father and obnoxious neighbor”. He transformed from being Gul Dukat pre-DS9 to Gul Dukat in season 4.

What exciting developments have occurred in the world of atheism recently? Seems like the same circlejerks by 14 year olds today as it was decades ago. Cool, you don’t believe in fairy tales. Better spend a lot of time talking to other 14 year olds about how you don’t believe in fairy tales.

Been using nvidia cards/drivers for the past 20 years. Never had an issue with the drivers breaking or depreciating(?) my hardware. My current card, a 1060 6gb, has been in constant use for the past 7.5 years with no measurable drop in performance, using official drivers.

I think people are genuinely looking for a console that doesn’t have all the fuckery of Playstation, but with a stronger brand for itself than Xbox, with the simplicity of Nintendo hardware, that costs under $699.

People saying Nintendo sucks and that they’re the worst company on Earth will still find dozens of games on it worth their time.

It’s crazy to think that if sports broadcasters just offered a less shitty service, they would make so much money in subscription fees.

Blackouts, nonstop gambling ads, and stratospheric fees are why people pirate sports. Get rid of one of those corners of the shit triangle and watch the money start coming in.

Kinda like red shoe diaries. It wasn’t porn, it was usually some kind of shitty crime movie or student arthouse film with boobs.

Why are you trying to read the Sun? Brain cancer is a terrible disease. Don’t do this to your family.

I mean, depends on the day. I see tons of very socialist/leftist memes and content posted to world. That being said, how many times do you need to circle jerk about socialism in the comments section on Lemmy? It’s not like anyone is actually going to do a proletariat revolution. At this point, it would just be Marxists “ackshually”-ing each other. I’m super bored of the lack of progress made in the discussions.

Bit of an overreaction to news that an ISP didn’t throw its customers under the bus, doncha think?

Pizza pops destroy hot pockies.

lemmy.world is basically that. You’ll get the most concentrated socdem/socialist engagements without traipsing into hunny-cum-shot territory.

Then, near the end of the set, the PE teacher had their head crushed by the big kid in the class.
