A cat doesn’t know that it’s paws are probably not the cleanest things to put on the table where people eat.

lol yes. I did it a few times before I realized that it’s not a good way to get weapons. Only lost a few bucks.

Edit: Should clarify, my parents bought them.

Hahaha this takes me back. My first purchases in 2011 were a few TF2 weapons. I got my account a short time after it went F2P.

I remember hearing that you can’t solder batteries normally though and that a special technique is needed to heat them minimally. Is this true?

Redux and last light were great. Awesome short ish stories that capture a unique vibe. The shooting is really good too. I still have yet to try Exodus due to issues running the game. but maybe I’ll try again.

It might be good. It’s just kind of insulting to use the Marathon IP for this. Still, I’m happy for anyone who ends up liking it.

I never used the percent button, lol. I am not about to start. Something about this doesn’t jive with my soul.

I was lucky to go to relatively good public schools and do some extra classes as well. It’s unfortunate that a good education is locked behind being wealthy enough to live in a good area and additional instruction outside of school, sometimes. This is one of the things that shows that people are not on a level playing field in the US.

Practice is important. People definitely learn this level of math, but not using it for years dulls the senses. On top of that, lots of people scrape through school doing the bare minimum. (Not always their fault of course. Not everyone has ample opportunity to excel in school due to a variety of things.) From what I hear, the bar for graduating high school is not incredibly high, so people like this don’t surprise me.

Do your issues appear on a fresh install? At my admittedly limited level of expertise, I’d probably start from there. If a clean install works properly, then something that’s happening later is messing it up. You’d have to keep track of changes you make to your system and check for issues as you go.

If a clean install is borked from the get-go, maybe try different distros. Since Framework supports Fedora, I’m surprised that anything would go wrong.

I don’t know if Framework offers any support or warranty, but you could check with them too.

I reserve my right to complain.

I am surprised that they didn’t just do away with it entirely. I don’t think it would have hurt their bottom line. This is somehow worse IMO. They’ll charge you more money for physical media that doesn’t even have the entire game on it. It’s like they want people to know that they’re being slapped in the face.

I am genuinely surprised that they’re suggesting physical games that act as keys for digital downloads. What is the point of getting a physical cartridge if you can’t play the whole game offline? I guess they’re just trying to kill physical media, and this is the first step in this direction.

I am on Firefox for Android, and I got a pop-up asking for my location. Then it redirected me to the homepage.

They are the only real family oriented console AFAIK. At least on PC, there isn’t a huge emphasis on local coop. This makes a steam deck a harder sell to people just looking for the casual family games. Nintendo on the other hand is committed to releasing games like this with every generation, and they don’t seem big on games with a restrictive age rating. I’m sure that wins points with parents.

I’d love to tell families that they should just buy a steam deck, but I don’t know if it’s the right choice TBH.

Does it make sense? Emulation is going to happen one way or another. If Nintendo sold a GC controller that is PC compatible, they’d at least make some money from those buyers.

I guess they don’t want your money if you’re not buying the switch. Strange move, but I guess it’s their prerogative to alienate more consumers.

When I saw the trailer, I thought Nintendo had pulled the craziest power move. Now I’m less disappointed since I probably won’t have much interest in this anyways. I probably will watch some streamers play it for sure.

One thing I can believe is that AAA games have gotten really expensive to make, so it’s not surprising that companies have broken that sort of soft $60 limit that we had for a while. I’m not even against paying more for a good game. When an indie game for $20 can provide over 100 hours of enjoyment, it’s just getting to be a tough sell.

Nintendo has been pushing the limits of how far it can make things worse for their customers, and people are still locked in because of some of the first party franchises. (Zelda, Mario, Pokémon, etc.)

Frankly, I’m surprised that Nintendo fans aren’t more mad.
