While I agree, Nintendo as a corporate entity sucks major balls, "nothing of value in at least a decade" is patently false.
Like, yuzu wouldn't have been such a smash hit if Nintendo was releasing value-less titles.
They teach kids in school that cops are your friends, which you would think is some kind of state sanctioned indoctrination program, but it's actually just naiveté on the part of the educators. If you meet a cop, does it feel like they're your friend, or does it feel like someone puffing up their chest to try and intimidate you even when you've done nothing wrong?
THANK YOU
I would have thought that the vast majority of people who download ROMs download them individually based off of their preference, not downloading the entirety of the PS1 or PS2 library.
To answer your question, it doesn't matter other than compression. Backups are backups.
Surely, being such a stand up guy from the party of law and order and definitely NOT a traitor, he followed up his warning of civil war with a stern condemnation of political violence and enforcement of the law.
Anyhoo. How's everyone's cortisol levels today?
There are shitty Chinese knock off controllers ofc, but the battery dying in a PS3 controller is super easy to rectify. I would recommend replacing the battery before trying a knockoff.
I'm sure they've convinced themselves that it's the "woke mob" that will unjustly cancel them like they did the kind chaps carrying tiki torches in Charlotte. /s
And just a dash of ADHD to spice up the ennui.
Hmm, let's see. In order to fully prepare a burrito, you would need to perform numerous tactile actions. First would be grabbing a tortilla. Given the floppy, inconsistently shaped, and thin properties of the tortilla, you couldn't grab one reliably using a standard 6 axis or suspended picker robot, you would need a tortilla loading mechanism, probably spring loaded with a sensor and servo motor to index the tortilla forward into the work area. Okay, so you have your tortilla loading mechanism. Next is to apply sauces like guac or sour cream. You can achieve this using a suspended robot like an ABB FlexPicker with a sauce application tool or other similarly spec'd robot. Oops! Is the customer allergic to avocado? Looks like the robot needs a tooling change! In fact, it'll need a tooling change anytime a new sauce is requested. Next is toppings and filling. This would need to be performed using dozens of hoppers and sensors to detect the tortilla underneath. Next is an automated rolling device. You might think you could get away with some kind of motorized roll-your-own cigarette type device, but burritos are also tucked, so you would need some kind of machine that can receive a loaded tortilla into a die, with actuators on the sides to tuck, and perpendicular actuators on the bottom to roll. Next, you need to wrap the tortilla in paper. The same type of device can roll the burrito in paper, but it would need to be a discrete device as to cut down on mess. Now, automatically present the burrito to the customer.
You would need roughly 5 automated stations that include robots, sensors, actuators, and bespoke engineered parts. To control it all, you would need a PLC with enough IO slots to manage all of the signals that are required (ie: signal to indicate tortilla is loaded, signal to indicate that sour cream is empty, signal to indicate that tortilla has failed wrapping, etc there are dozens of signals to process even in simple operations), a massive electrical panel to house all of the control circutry, and you would need at least 1 college educated technician (earning roughly $60-80k per year) to maintain the equipment at all times, but more likely, you'll need at least 2 technicians per shift.
Then comes the commissioning phase, which given the menu and all of the options Chipotle offers, would take months to fine tune the process. It has moving parts and exists in a location with lots of civilian consumers not wearing PPE, so you'll have to perform a pre-start health and safety report and get that certified by the right governing body (usually state/province level government agency).
Then comes the paperwork required to terminate thousands of staff legally and the added HR cost of taking managers away from managing in order to terminate their entire staff. Not to mention, the added risk of all of your managers losing faith in the company due to severe morale degradation.
All of this assumes 100% uptime, which is an impossibility. Even Toyota's lines go down for PMs or faults.
Is that easier than just paying your minimum wage earners a little more?
The Earth exploding and everyone waking up in a new timeline, having absorbed our prime selves, is somehow more likely now than it was 5 years ago.
An interesting take. I assume most people on lemmy are more politically engaged than the average citizen. We can recognize political affiliation from a mile away, and we know (for the most part) what kind of person that makes someone.
Why do you think, after hundreds of years of modern politics, that the average person doesn't recognize when an opportunistic piece of shit right-wing populist is speaking?
This is what gets me, in Ontario, we have a conservative government that publicly fails at doing literally everything, publicly wastes taxpayer money, everyone complains about them, and nobody voices their support. However, they're poised to take a 3rd term with a majority government and they poll far and away better than any of the other parties that skew centrist or left of center. We have a rap sheet a mile long of on-brand conservative policies that everyone hates but can't stop voting for.
Using a word incorrectly 1,000,001 times shouldn't change the actual dictionary definition of the word.
MTG said the White House would smell like curry...as if that's a bad thing. Tell me one person who doesn't love the smell of garam masala or fenugreek.
Edit: sorry, Laura Loomer. It's hard to keep track of all of the Russian assets calling themselves Republican these days.

I haven't played it simply because of all of the right wing culture war noise surrounding it. No hate to anyone legitimately enjoying it, more power to you, but if there is discussion about game mechanics or lore or technical achievements the game brings, it's overwhelmingly obscured by Gamers™ lauding its lack of diversity.
Can't motivate people to pokemon go to the polls if they're feeling like all hope is lost due to climate catastrophe.
It's difficult to say. One of my least favorite mechanics in racing games is rubber banding. Another is rewarding people in last place with a powerup and punishing people in first for being good at the game (looking at you, every single Mario Kart title ever). That being said, there are games without these mechanics and they wind up feeling lifeless, such as Motorstorm and GTA Online races. So the trick to enjoying racing games I've found is to play games that only minimally rely on rubber banding, and without blue shell tier powerups, or racing games that deprioritize ranks in favor of adding tons of personality to the experience.
Racing games that truly don't offend me:
I'm struggling to find a way to interpret this xit other than "I want to eliminate all regulations on industry!" Does Elon know how boring and insubstantial his thoughts have become?
I'm assuming the Scan Man 32 for Mac resulted in Game Boy Camera quality images.

I firmly believe that if Fallout 4 wasn't made on the ancient CE, it could have been legendary. There's so many good ideas in Fallout 4, you can see what kind of game the devs really wanted to make, but it feels so clunky.
