So all of you who voted would have side with The Master in the backstory of Mega Man Legends by cancelling the carbon re-initialization program even if it meant a permanent end to humanity.

Finally! No more trending garbage when I want to privately watch YouTube videos.

Seriously, I never understood the mentality that privacy front-ends need to show what's trending. It honestly kind of defeats the purpose and I really just want to enjoy the content I want to watch without a care in the world.

I can't believe I'm saying this, but it seems like the true winner of the 9th generation console war is the fucking Evercade (Steam devices will never count; they're specialized gaming PCs).

* Actually affordable by most people right now
* Actually has games even if most are re-releases
* Physical media is main focus
* Games actually come with manuals as a standard
* Fully playable offline
* Games are released as finished products
* The EXP and Super Pocket models are the only traditional handhelds (having an exclusive library and being able to fit in your pocket) on the market right now (Playdate is a shitty gimmick and doesn't count)
* Literally has an arcade cabinet variant
* Some Evercade ports are actually the definitive official versions of their respective games (Duke Nukem and Banjo Kazooie being the most notable)
* Supports indies but isn't trying to be saturated with shovelware indie titles
* Native ports show that the system is capable of more demanding games. I bet they could even port Dreamcast and GameCube games via the original or decomp source code
* And most importantly, it is the only console/handheld this gen that is guaranteed to offer the exact same experience 10/20+ years from now as it does in the present day

And I remember when the thing first came out, I thought it was the most pointless console ever. I mean who wants to buy a system that only plays emulated re-releases of decades-old games? Though this is before indies arrived on it, but I disregarded it as a cheap cash-in on the success of systems like the NES Classic. However, they have probably become the most vindicated console as time goes on.

As if SystemD, FlatPak and others weren't already trying to centralize the Linux ecosystem.

And from what I can tell, it isn't even a distro. It's just Arch bundled with a bunch of configuration files. So not a real distro, just a pre-configured Arch installation.

Imagine thinking that the incompetent email server maintainer is somehow a threat to FOSS.

Who knew that an Aldi's knockoff brand would taste better than the real thing?

"Yeah, I'm going to continue to attack the one laptop manufacturer that makes laptops that will last you more than one year." (Don't quote me on that, I haven't tried one myself.)

I find it weird that the only Sonic game I own and have played extensively is the one that most Sonic fans have probably never even played.

We admitted to funding the big bad boogieman but we are still going to tell you why they are still a threat anyway.

So, apparently KOSA *MIGHT* not apply to the fedi, or at least most of the fedi doesn't apply, as algorithmic manipulation is a requisite for being considered a "platform".

It's been a while since I've worked on the game itself, but I've implemented item crates that you destroy to get items.

No. The real difference is that the mathematician has an actual job and provides meaningful work, while the poet just gets high and writes a bunch of word salad.

Fuck poetry.
