- Comment on Switch 2 GameCube controller will only be offered to those who pre-order the console 1 day ago:
Yes, Nintendo! Please paywall my nostalgia of the very first game console I ever played! Charge me an exorbitant price during a economic crisis to satisfy my childlike need to regress to a time before I understood what money was!
- Comment on BDS calls for boycott of Microsoft and Xbox gaming products over alleged Israeli military connections. 1 day ago:
Probably not the best advice considering the current economic situation but you could cut your losses and restart on Steam. Buy the games there and your kids can probably still do what they did on Xbox. You probably already know this but Steam has a Big Picture Mode which makes it more controller friendly and nicer for large TV displays. Keep a keyboard and mouse handy for when things need technical support.

I think that buying and living in a yurt would be a better option than trying to buy a house.

- Comment on European police say KidFlix, "one of the largest pedophile platforms in the world," busted in joint operation. 5 days ago:
Massive congratulations to Europol and its partners in taking this shit down and putting these perverts away. However, they shouldn’t rest on their laurels. The objective now is to ensure that the distribution of this disgusting material is stopped outright and that no further children are harmed.

With that logic, I might as well throw away my computer and phone and go full Uncle Ted.

- Comment on Reddit’s 50% Plunge Fails to Entice Dip Buyers as Growth Slows. 1 week ago:
Forget about growth. Forget investors. Forget about all those capitalist nonsense. What good are profits if everything goes to shit? The best thing about Lemmy is that it doesn’t give a shit about that. It’s decentralized and community driven. Capitalism prioritizes money not people.
- Comment on Enshittification 2 weeks ago:
Enshittification is the end result of putting profits above everything. There’s a reason why XJ Cherokees are still running today despite being over 40 years old. Their internals were so simple that even the most mechanically illiterate could work on it with basic tools from the hardware store. Something like that wouldn’t be make it past the pitch meeting today.

- Comment on Which game is it? 3 weeks ago:
Outer Worlds. Not exactly a bad game but fell just a tad short of being F:NV spiritual successor.
