I don’t get it. I mean I get it because it’s Ninty, but I don’t get why now?

Has there been something in a major new feature update that has finally tipped the scales into clearly taking the piss, or have the legal team at Big N finally seen their erections subside after the game’s launch and only now can move enough to do something about it?

I mean, “I’m only happy when it rains” should be the national anthem for Catland.

or , none of the cities were equipped, trained, or willing to deal with the additional security risks or associated public order issues that it causes - so rather than cancel the game, it got moved to a neutral venue?

I’ve heard some stupid shit in my time, but moving an international game that benefits Israel by removing the home advantage and then calling it “anti-Semitic” is pretty entertaining.

That’s super awesome - both for the fostering, and for paying the cat tax in advance!

I like the idea of getting an adult cat - a bit bigger, a bit wiser, and a bit warmer to the idea of having a bed and a human to call their own.

Man I’d love to be able to do that and give cats a good run-in for their twilight years but I don’t think I could - partly because one of the household is allergic to cats; but mainly I don’t think I could deal with the repeated emotional devastation of having to let them go at a much higher rate than a “normal” pet owner.

Fair play to those that do. Pretty ballsy.

Purely a subjective opinion (and I apologise if the artist shows up in this thread) but is it me or does it look like the person who made the background took a step back after it was done, marvelled at how pretty it was, and enjoyed the moment before thinking “…fuck I forgot about O’Brien”?

It’s a great bit of artwork but poor Miles looks like an afterthought!

I thought Gun Jesus was trying to pivot to other streaming platform for his main content, and YouTube was just a bit of extra exposure while it lasts?

I haven’t been keeping up with it so I may be 12 months behind the curve.

I dunno man. I quite enjoy watching documentaries on how the bangbang sticks go bang, and how engineers overcame technical challenges.

I’m not a huge fan of Gravy Seals videos of people doing weird cover to cover movement and blatting off rounds at targets, but each to their own.

I guess I think there’s bigger problems faced by YouTube and this should be pretty far down the list.

I’ve got one and it’s cool… but that’s about it.

It’s starting to chug now with modern apps (or legacy apps with new updates), the touchscreen is becoming increasingly unresponsive, that battery health is starting to go off a cliff… but all those factors can be levelled at any two or three year old phone.

The hinge is the problem. My understanding is that Samsung has made a better design for the SGF 5 and 6, but i’m already on my second phone after the hinge caused the phone screen to bleed out from the centre, and I’m getting the crackle of doom from the hinge starting to sound already.

If you’re desperate for a flip phone, then I’d advise you stay clear of the SGF3 and consider the Oppo Find N2 or the Nubia Flip.

Absolutely love that CCC talk, very interesting and quite entertaining too.

Cheeky bastards.

To take it to a logical extreme, it frustrates me when a post that considers both (or more) views and is a well thought out post, is met with a single world reply - as if it’s some sort of “gotcha” or the fact that a single ambiguity in a largely solid argument somehow usurps the entire point.

I tend to think they’re either young or generally underexposed to how human interaction works.

The waste is a fair point - storage isn’t a long term solution but then I suppose it can be managed in the interim, not like the effects of climate change.

I’m not seeing your point of “nukes” though?

A good point, but if privacy is their key concern then I would imagine it would have to be a two step approach - rip out the SIM and radio, but also have a couple of plan B’s such as phones with location tracking (the irony isn’t lost on me), land-based EPIRB’s, or satphones or whatever’s needed.

That, or invest in some drop-croc martial arts!

All I needed was a reason

Depending on the size of the organisation or how it’s funded if it’s public sector, then it may well be the “restructuring” that’s holding it up - and by that, I mean there are probably teams and managers screaming out for funded posts to be filled, but a blanket ban on recruitment may be in force while someone with a fancy title figures out the shit state of their staffing affairs.

I’ve had times when I’ve had 40% of my team’s positions open, and when I’ve asked for authority to recruit for already funded posts (probably for budget reasons), I’ve been knocked back because “nah fuck you, we’re waiting on the staffing review being completed”. I don’t really give a fuck about the future plans, I’m wanting to recruit for the posts we have now!

It’s frustrating friend. Shit doesn’t make sense.

I’m a lad from Bradford, in the UK.

my condolences, friend

Fair play, I love how the community has taken on remastering duties over the years.

Fallout New Vegas is basically a different game with the QoL mods installed, and Descent was actually enjoyable on modern hardware with Rebirth.

I never thought I’d say this but I’m actually quite looking forward to playing Sonic 2006 as Project 06.

My missus is used to 70mm so anything bigger is just pure decadance.
