And a lifelong bond with your friends that you never tell anyone else about

Whatever happened to curiosity? We used to be a real society.
- Comment on Do you use your blinker in a car? 2 weeks ago:
Of course I do. My goal while driving is to be predictable so I can minimize the chances of causing an accident.
- Comment on Assuming a button that makes you smarter, the only smart move is to press it. 2 weeks ago:
Why wouldn’t the button increase emotional intelligence as well? Losing empathy as you learn more doesn’t sound smart to me.

Also just one game and not 3
- Comment on Unshittification: 3 tech companies that recently made my life… better 3 weeks ago:
They aren’t publicly traded so put those fears to rest until Gaben dies (may that be FAR in the future), then we have to hope his successor has a similar mindset.

Some are thinking “I don’t want to fund what Elon is doing so let them come and take it”

Wow you really have no real understanding of what you’re talking about about. You’re just spouting confident nonsense with not real-world backing. I’m not even going to argue with you I’ll just link this: wikipedia.org/wiki/Dunning–Kruger_effect

What value comes from severing those relationships?

Calling Canada and the UK “super liberal” is wild.
Japan and Korea are not the ones growing in Asia. That would be China, another target of Trump’s trade war. Our future will be under losing to China.
- Comment on What was your favorite shareware game? 1 month ago:
I spent a lot of time playing Raptor: Call of the Shadows, a vertically-scrolling shooter with an upgrade system.
There was also Rise of the Triad, a pretty decent Doom-clone
- Comment on Recommend me a steam deck game 1 month ago:
I would recommend against Multiversus only because it’s getting shut down in a couple months. Might be fun until then, though
- Comment on place yer bets 2 months ago:
It’ll be easier to teach drillers to fly shuttles than it would be to teach astronauts how to dig a hole.
- Comment on Those YouTube ads everyone hates made $10.4 billion in just three months 2 months ago:
It had stopped working for me
- Comment on Those YouTube ads everyone hates made $10.4 billion in just three months 2 months ago:
I don’t remember having to compile it and there’s a setting to prefer the album version of songs
- Comment on Those YouTube ads everyone hates made $10.4 billion in just three months 2 months ago:
There are tools for the music side as well
RVX Music works quite well for me on Android
- Comment on Those YouTube ads everyone hates made $10.4 billion in just three months 2 months ago:
RVX, a fork of ReVanced, works well on Android. You’ll have to side load it yourself, but it’s got very good ad blocking and sponsor block if you don’t want to hear shilling during a video.
No idea for iPhone.
- Comment on Tesla pulls out all the stops as Cybertruck sales grind to a halt 2 months ago:
Both shitty visions of the future. Well the movie for Running Man took place 6-8 years ago, and the book takes place this year which could count as “future” since we’re only in February.
- Comment on Tesla pulls out all the stops as Cybertruck sales grind to a halt 2 months ago:
I wish journalist would stop calling this PS 1 Pontiac Aztek “futuristic”; it just highlights how shitty our future is going to be.

More of a Phoebe guy myself, but I get it.
- Comment on Top executive shot dead outside New York hotel 4 months ago:
And, importantly, only took out their target and didn’t turn it into a mass shooting with a bunch of innocent bystanders. Just took out one bastard and disappeared.
- Comment on Palworld Developer Reveals The Pokémon Patents Nintendo Claims It's Violating 5 months ago:
Butchering your pals is less of a problem than enslaving other human beings.
More to the point it’s just bad. It’s incredibly grindy, has an incongruous tech tree, and the A.I. (both enemy and ally) is trash. It’s also mostly a copy of their previous game, Craftopia, which was also bad and has been in Early Access for 4 years now with no signs of ever leaving it.
I don’t hate Palworld because it’s a low effort Pokemon knockoff, I hate Palworld because it’s a low effort Ark knockoff following the same business plan of not finishing their previous game before abandoning it for their new game. At least with Ark you got to ride dinosaurs rather than store-brand Rapidash.

One of my favorite podcasts

And he keeps breeding
- Comment on In the era of remakes and remasters, what niche game would you like to see receive the treatment? 5 months ago:
There is a GitHub project working on a recompilation of both of these for PC. They’ve got Majora’s Mask working and are working on OoT. Looks beautiful, runs buttery smooth, and has custom controls with a free camera.
- Comment on Nintendo Music – Announcement Trailer 5 months ago:
I’ve tried it and have a few thoughts:
Initial selection is only 23 games, not sure why they’re not just releasing everything. I guess they’re planning on parceling the music out like their emulators.
The choices of games are also kind of strange, like why 2 versions of Metroid? Why starfox 64 and not like Mario 64
The ability to extend songs up to 60 minutes is pretty cool
The idea of character specific playlists is interesting
It crashes semi frequently, not a good sign.
It does add value to the Switch online membership, but not much at this point.

I would like to believe this, unfortunately the large number of very old assholes seems to indicate otherwise.

They still work on most of the emulated versions I’ve tried (including the version that OP is playing here), but I haven’t tried on Sonic Origins
