I’ve always been aware of this guy, but never watched him. He always seemed like an old guy acting like a young guy. Gave me bad vibes. I wouldn’t have guessed this at all. And im not just saying it becuase all this has come out. Ive voiced this opinion many times over the years. He gives of creepy vibes.

Put a bigger space between steve and and, and and and dave on that sign.

Im 36 and i often forget that the 90s were about 20-30 years ago. I forget im not 20 sometimes, until i throw my back out.

If I had to guess, they meant to say something like 25 years ago.

Or not. Im not them, i dont know.

Worse than the gameboy?

But seriously. Graphics are nice, but without good gameplay, i’m just watching a movie.

You can have all the fancy graphics you want, but they dont make games good. They just enhance games. If the game is boring, then all the graphics in the world won’t save it.

God damn furrys! :p

I guess if you werent savvy enough to do it you could follow a guide. My dad does alot of tech stuff by following guides but if it ever goes wrong he cant fix it becaise he doesnt know what he did, he just follows the steps.

I have to fix it instead.

Dumb argument, its all relative.

Of course there are people who have it worse. But that doesnt invalidate the frustrations of people who dont. A 1st world problem isnt less valid than a third world poblem.

In the 1st world, you often need a reliable internet connection to do almost everything. From ordering food to applying for a job. Even some work is only offered remotely and therefore it is a requirement.

If you dont have the internet in a 1st world country you will fall behind and lokely end up poor and struggling.

In some third world countires, assume these same issues sont exist.

I dunno, 3 megabits works out to about 0.375 megabytes per second. So its slow.

That seems like a limiter has been applied. Probably on the router. I dont think there are internet providers out there still offering adsl speeds like this. You would need around 5Mbps to watch HD on netflix.

Might be worth finding the actual router and getting the log in details from the sticker on the bottom/back and logging in to see if you can disable it.

Wow! Is that a mocking bird?!

I believe so, yes.

There are a few things they could try. You can get biodegradable bottles, you could use glass or metal, there are cardboard bottles and silicon and even ceramic.

You could also change the way we buy these drinks from bottles we buy and throw away to containers we keep and refill from dispensers. The infrastructure isn’t there for it, but with the amount of money the major drinks companies make its not unreasonable to assume they could afford to implement it.

And arguing that these alternatives are not practical is a wasted effort because an alternative IS needed to stop mass plastic waste and protect the environment so we need to get used to the bar being set at a different height.

Ha!

I tried a different approach. Heres a funny exchange i had

Internet providers have always done this. Its not a new thing.

Apple already made a folding phone. It was called the iphone 6.

From what ive read, doki doki panic was a seperate game and was reskinned to become what the western world got as super mario bros 2. Japan had a different super mario bros 2 game that was built using the original game engine.

One key difference was that in the western version mario picked up and threw enemies but in the japan game mario jumped on enemiea like in the original.

I didnt k ow about this. Just read about it now. Wow. Really interesting. I want to try the Japanese super mario bros 2 now haha.

Win win for pokemon though right?

Absorb the business or kill it. Either way, nintendo won’t lose sales to palworld.

Its the best move. Fighting it in court is just going to make the pokemon company look bad and if the news goes viral it will lose them money eventually as people move on from pokemon. Its almost 30 years old now. Nothing lasts forever.

Actually, pokemon is owned by nintendo, Game Freak, and Creatures. It’s a joint ownership. Look it up.

Palworld didn’t steal their IP. They very closely mimicked the IP and potentially with just enough legal distinction to claim its not infringement.

Your analogy would be much more relevant if it was i own a bike company and another company started selling bikes that were extremely similar to my design which disrupted my sales.

In which casez yes i absolutely would buy out the other bike company before i lost too much business and either close it down or absorb it into my own business. This is not a terrible idea its a fairly common business practice.

But ok…
