This isn’t “providing and opportunity”. This is exploitation. Full stop.
- Comment on What Game Boy game do you love that you never hear anyone talk about? 1 year ago:
For some perspective, the Oracle games are unpopular in terms of Zelda games. Zelda is one of the most widely popular video game franchises in history, though. So an unpopular Zelda game is still much more well known and well received than something more obscure.
The Oracles are some of the best selling and most well regarded GBC games in the system’s library, though they are overshadowed by Link’s Awakening DX and the glut of Pokémon games the Game Boy Color had on offer.
- Comment on Anticipation - Nintendo's first video board game 1 year ago:
Agreed. I am known to hum it when playing board games with friends.
- Comment on Have an RG353V coming today 1 year ago:
I already did full backups of both cards and moved the games over to a 200gb Lexar card, along with my own ROM archives. The one thing I have found a consensus on with these systems is that the default cards are garbage.

So what makes ArkOS better? I’m looking into trying this.

What? Is this meant to be ironic or something? They’re two of the most popular GBC games.

Metroid.
How did I scroll through this list and not see Samus Aran mentioned?

- Comment on What is the worst US state to live in generally? 1 year ago:
You assume that the majority of them live there by choice, and not because they lack the resources and opportunities to move. It’s kinda hard to pull up roots and move half way across the country when the economic and political realities of where you currently live force you to remain firmly entrenched in poverty with deliberately restricted access to any means to improve that situation.
By your logic, black people must love prison, too, because they represent a disproportionate percentage of the prison population. I’m sure it has nothing at all to do with disproportionate enforcement against them, right?

Depends. I’m dead serious when I ask this, but are you black, Latino, a woman, queer, Jewish or Muslim, trans or non-binary, liberal or any flavor of politics to the left of Right wing authoritarian fascist, or any combination of those groups? If so, then stay the hell out of any state south of Virginia and east of Illinois. They aren’t just bad. They are potentially deadly, increasingly as a matter or literal public policy. If you aren’t one of those groups, than you aren’t in physical existential danger. You’ll just be stuck in a nightmare hellhole of poverty and ignorance. But you’ll be safe. Mostly.
Honestly, I’ve been everywhere in the continental US. Been to every state, seen just about all there is to see driving over the road for fifteen years, and I can tell you that the southeast is damn near a third world country compared to everywhere else. The infrastructure is so bad it reminds me of when I stayed in St. Petersburg, Russia in 1993. And it’s only gotten worse. I have no desire to ever return now that I’m not required to for my job. Florida used to be the one shining exception, except now it’s embracing a return to 1930s Germany. Stay out of Alabama, Mississippi, Georgia, Florida, Louisiana, and Texas in particular.

- Comment on Why were we able to stamp out Nazism but not the Taliban? 1 year ago:
Nazism hasn’t been stamped out. It’s just been given a number of new names to make it more palatable. A sizeable percentage of American “Conservatives”, especially in the MAGA cult, subscribe to an ideology that is every bit as fascist, nationalist, white-supremacist, and Christofascist as the Nazis. The only difference is the nation they represent. We’re currently seeing a meteoric rise in antisemitic rhetoric from those same elements.
Nazism is just a specific brand of fascist nationalism. Make no mistake, there’s every bit of effort to push several nations, and especially America, into a new fourth Reich in everything but name and nation.

Now I need a pick of Gowrontax. Or Artron. Whichever.
