- Comment on Is this a scam or am I being paranoid? And if so, what kind of scam is this? 2 days ago:
Props to you for being curious and inquisitive and having the knowledge it’s a scam. Don’t let others bring you off your digging (without endangering yourself).

- Comment on Is anyone else apprehensive to down voting even if you're being down voted? 4 days ago:
And again I think - who would even downvote that answer.
- Comment on Is anyone else apprehensive to down voting even if you're being down voted? 4 days ago:
People are waaaay to judgy and rarely think outside of their bubble, country, ‘layer’ or can relate that there are differences beyond their knowledge. That’s why I only downvote when I am mostly sure to understand all this context, not just because I don’t like or agree with a statement 🤷
- Comment on Is the Switch 2 a waste of money? 6 days ago:
First off no, it’s not proprietary. Express SD cards are finally a speedy standard. But since they’re new they’re not available in many sizes and also expensive.
Nintendo explicitly states that for the switch 2, microSD EX(PRESS) is required.

- Comment on Is the Switch 2 a waste of money? 1 week ago:
Define worth it for you.
The hardware is a great upgrade. And I don’t mean the insides, that seems fine. I mean the changed joycon slotting, the build quality, the stand.
I’d never go back to the first one in general. But. The EX SD cards are still expensive, sizes I’d need are not there and especially if most things are key cards you’d need more storage!
So being a nerd I still have (multiple of) switch 1, not replaced by switch 2. But I find both good, the rails on 1 suck (because of plastic blocker on the joycon thst wears off), both still have non echo thumbsticks so go for 8bitdo controllers but in general the switch 2 is a nice upgrade.
So if you want a switch go for the 2 imo.

Well partly accurate, but very funny. Quality, yes.

Perfect. 👍

Physical media has long sailed but not drm free software.
(I’m not sure which of those you’re referring to, just clearly stating)

Also, it would be helpful not to worsen it with some hype, currently AI or to let go of old fossil technology. But there we go.

How do I deal with children following me around in video games.
Seriously I need to explain why this question raises so many questions? 🤔😁
Might also only be just me, the.
- Comment on How do I deal with children following me around in video games? 1 week ago:
Indeed this question is Hella confusing in nostupidquestions without context even to a gamer like me who knows Minecraft and spinoffs but not lunatic.

Exactly, it’s been a few years with no noticeable spring and fall, almost 10 I guess?

- Comment on For those who are super against to AI/LLM today. What was the catalyst how did you reach to this point? If you have the power to change our current situation what would you do. 2 weeks ago:
When every app got its own Ai agent. It’s so much worse than this in scope but I won’t write it all down now.
- Comment on It's true 2 weeks ago:
Well, it wasn’t bad but for one the violence for me was far off from how the original series and movies handled it.
The humor and delivery was great but that snowman scene ruined it for me with supernatural elements which were never part (tell me if I’m wrong).
So for me it was so/so in total.
- Comment on What is your favourite gaming console you have played? 2 weeks ago:
I was going to say this. Still way underestimated because of a lot of shovelware kids stuff in stores (depending on location). It’s not close to being my first or early device either (that was TI 99/4A).

Actually, afaik thst had been disproven. They just bring food to snack it in safety.
- Comment on Why do doctors not seem to give a fuck about pain? Is this just an American doctor thing, or is it universal? 2 weeks ago:
I can only tell you it’s not like this in Germany but still dependant on doctors.
On one side you have those that know that pain can get chronic if untreated and they will employ countermeasures. No sense in needless pain.
On the other hand you have some bad doctors that are unaware and unempathic and can not relate to the illnesses they even treat. There you might have issues then.
- Comment on Sonic turns 35 today—what does this franchise mean to you? 2 weeks ago:
Although I (mostly) started with a NES I was always an arcade / Sega kid. As such sonic was cool although I always admitted that regarding the games sonic mostly couldn’t even come close to Mario.
However there were really good games, arcadey and also with awesome music which is important to me.
The MD Sonics were the good ones and also the ones on the GBA/DS. I never really cared much for the (lots of misfired) 3D attempts or spinoffs.
Mostly. Except for sonic racing all stars transformed which is imo one of the greatest cart racers of all times and including awesome arcade crossover tracks including the music… Awesome!
