    Traitor Watch - The 45 & 47 Thread

    I hadn't even put "starting a literal war with Mexico" on my Bingo card and honestly I just feel really stupid for it now.

    The Twit destroying Twitter is a Twaitor

    I have a seriously hard time believing that anywhere close to a million people wanted to buy this monstrosity. Either Tesla made up that number, or a bunch of trolls placed those (hopefully deposit-free) preorders with the deliberate plan to ghost them afterwards.

    FDR's biggest mistake was not just shutting down the stock market when public opinion of it was at its nadir.

    Harris-Walz / Dems

    Well yeah, I can't think of a single active politician in this country who I'd trust to actually fix everything Trump broke, let alone make things better than they were before. I don't honestly think a Constitutionally-limited president, even with the backing of a Congressional majority, can...

    Harris-Walz / Dems

    A better question is how could Newsom get away with this without leaving the union first? Overriding federal taxes is one thing I know for sure states are not allowed to do and never have been. I'm betting this is just a publicity stunt to garner support for a 2028 presidential run. And it's...

    Florida, Florida, Florida

    Nah, I'm pretty sure tech bros these days are more like Movie Robotnik, seeing themselves as the only important humans on the planet and wanting everyone else to just die off and be replaced with a comparatively small number of autonomous machines. Reducing the rights and quality of life of...

    Traitor Watch - The 45 & 47 Thread

    I hope the Democrats do everything they can to try to stop this, but fail through no fault of their own. I want this country to have to live out the consequences of this madness as long as it takes for at least a majority of Trump's voters to realize they made a horrible mistake, and for a...

    Traitor Watch - The 45 & 47 Thread

    Imagine sending this post back in time without context just to see what people guess it's in response to. They'd probably assume the government had been overthrown by communists somehow.

    Switch 2 official reveal

    It might work for some games, but not every gesture can be mapped 1:1 to position sensing alone. And switching back and forth between rubbing the joycon sideways on the couch cushion and waving it around is going to get annoying.

    The Nintendo Thread of Jumping, Slashing, and Home Decorating

    Did you try to embed it using the media tag? I don't know if that's ever worked with Reddit, but if it has, I'd guess what changed is that they shut down all the APIs a couple years back.

    The real question is whether the stores will jack up the price just because they can, and hope people assume it's the tariffs' fault. Because the "S" in MSRP doesn't stand for "mandated."

    Traitor Watch - The 45 & 47 Thread

    Do we... not have any official policies that treat them as such? Have we been spending the past 50 years pretending they're the same country and that literally every instance of "China" in any laws and treaties applies to both together?

    Switch 2 official reveal

    Oof. That's... even worse actually, because Virtual Console games run exactly the same no matter which emulator you use. So they were literally charging extra just for the privilege of continuing to play the games you'd already bought. On a console that's already backward compatible with the...

    Switch 2 official reveal

    I'm confused why this is relevant. That was an entire remake that didn't require owning the original to play it. There's no precedent for Nintendo selling upgrades to existing games for any price, so we're in uncharted waters here. Unless we want to compare this to what some other studios have...

    And other countries won't even need to do anything except ban Americans from coming into the country, which I'm sure they're all looking for an excuse to do anyway.

    Traitor Watch - The 45 & 47 Thread

    Yeah but the government already started pretending COVID was over years ago. The CDC has probably been focusing on ways to mitigate whatever unknown thing is coming next, and now we're going to be the only country on earth that's completely unprepared for it.

    Nintendo vs. Sega (and other lesser console wars)

    Citation needed. I've been to the Exchange several times over the years and seen not just first-design Xbox 360s, but at least one white one, sitting on the top shelf behind the checkout desk next to the PS3s. If they have one next time, I'll take a picture.
