  I did play both of those when they first came out, I don’t remember a whole lot of the gamepkay outside of, no actual travel outside of town, for XD you can only capture dark Pokemon, don’t remember for Colloseum, and they both have the same, rather obvious, twist of who the villain is. That said, I enjoyed them both a lot when I had my GameCube.

  I’ve always felt this about Pokemon, there’s so many moves that affect stats, cause status effects, or do something interesting, but I always just go for whatever deals damage. Even on my current run, I’ll keep a move around because it sounds fun, but won’t use it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s been a long time since I’ve listened to that, but I didn’t realize that was them.

  I’m left-handed and always secretly wished I had this and a right-handed twin so we could literally be mirror copies of each other.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨That would be petrifying⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  That depends, is the planet Mogo or Ego? I’d feel pretty good if Mogo were our nearest celestial neighbor. Alternatively it means a poorly buried giant, next we find out Transformers are real, Mars just used to be filled with Energon and the war depleted it. Granted a face that large, could imply Unicron, which is also a problem.

  Don’t worry, we’ve already established that Outlook doesn’t work in space.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Maybe it’s an issue of perspective. I see them as replacements for Twitter and Facebook and for me specifically I was posting the same things on both, its just that I had some people exclusively on one or the other, so when deciding to cut things, it made sense for me to only setup one given not many people I was communicating with were using either Mastodon or Friendica. I guess the core issue is either I’ve never really been using social media properly, or I just don’t know what the core usecase/structure for Friendica/Facebook actually is.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Genuine question, are there a good number of people using Friendica? I looked at it back in like 2017 or whenever Hak5 did a video about setting up Friendica servers, but it always seemed like Mastodon was the way to go, I k ow they aren’t technically filling the same space, but still.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Removing Paramount+ on Three UK Risks Inviting 100Mbps Data Speed Cap⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  To elaborate more on this for those not reading the article. New customers already have the data cap and need a £4 add-on to remove. Removing Paramount+ from your plan is essentially akin to changing your contract, so you get the new terms.

  To be clear, I don’t like it, but what initially seemed like some sort of shady deal between Paramount Skydance and Three UK, is actually just telecoms being telecoms. Paramount Skydance can still suck it though.

  Don’t worry, they’ll output enough heat that even when power goes down, it’ll warm Texas for months

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How to calculate stardate? How is measured?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I guess I’d probably use the xxx as the day of the year 001-365 but I’m almost certain I’ve heard a stardate like 40538 so that ultimately wouldn’t work very well. Given that it’s a sector of a galaxy and not specifically based around earths orbit of the sun, it would make sense that you would have more than 365 days in a star year.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨i'm fucking devastated but there are no exception⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Probably? I’ll be honest, there’s only a few songs by Disciple that I’ve really listened to, but I liked them. Kind of the same with DH, I really like Black Stained Glass

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨i'm fucking devastated but there are no exception⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m just going to tack a few more on here so I can find some of yours later, but I’d like to add:

  Nine Lashes, which are probably more overt than some

  Red Jumpsuit Apparatus, for the entirety of Don’t You Fake It, and a few other songs

  Red

  Demon Hunter

  Switchfoot, don’t @ me Dare You To Move is a banger

  I haven’t had any issues loading my GOG games through the Heroic launcher on ZorinOS

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨It's sad that people completely misunderstand what Star Trek is about.⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Ah, that’s fair, I was a child when I first watched the series so I don’t think I ever really registered the visor as a disability given that being blind doesn’t hinder him at all, besides the aforementioned headaches that rarely come up.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨It's sad that people completely misunderstand what Star Trek is about.⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Where do you consider TNG being preachy about disability? Not arguing, it’s just been a while since I’ve watched it beginning to end and this might be something I failed to pick up on.

  Philip DeFranco had him on Yesterday and he said the reason he didn’t use FSD was that it required you to input an address, but that there isn’t any difference in terms of the sensors being used.

  Given that the other car didn’t appear to have a version of FSD either, I’m unclear as to why Autopilot wasn’t the correct move for the most accurate comparison.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Murica⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I like the restructure around walking, however I’d add in that instead of a good lot of rental cars, better public transport, light rails/subways within metro areas and buses/proper trains for longer distances would be nice. Of course you’ll need rental vehicles for some things, but more often than not, I imagine that would cover most bases. And the light rails would provide protection from the elements.
