there’s no one easy fix to the rancid sociopolitical climate in the US but a Tim Hortons on every corner would certainly go a long way

that’s like picking a favorite child! Power Drift, SEGA Rally Championship, Super Hang-On, and Hang-On GP, and OutRunners are all vying for that spot. Kirby Air Ride gets an honorable mention for the same reason as that other commenter, i can count on one hand how many times i’ve actually played the main racing mode

i honestly regret deleting my xitter account. not because i actually want to use it, no way in hell, but i got curious recently and saw that my username was retaken by someone else, so now any old links there go to them instead of me. would have been much better to delete all of my tweets and change my display name and bio to point people to mastodon. maybe even set up automated tweets telling people switch. even if i got banned for that, that at least prevents anyone else from squatting on my old id. oh well, you live and you learn!

i came here to say the same thing! if people actually genuinely like the new reddit ui, those people might just want and need different things out of a website than we do, and trying to onboard them might be a fool’s errand. not to be a gatekeeper, i’d love if everyone quit the corporate web, but a lot of the things people complain about here like the ui and the decentrilization are why i’m here (in my case mbin) and not there to begin with

same thing with mastodon, people still rail against it’s ui but the ui was a big reason i even made a mastodon long before twitter was bought out, back when they first tried to phase out the chronological timeline

common misconception, actually that song is about me

i picked up diamond again a few years ago and was flabberghasted by how slow it was, even compared to the gold and silver remakes. i was using a real cartridge on a real DS but it felt like i was playing in an emulator on a potato. i even disabled attack animations and it didn’t seem to speed things up at all. and then once the games became 3D, forget it, you can pick a move and make a run to the fridge before your turn is over

yeah i always go Mudkip and the only time i ever have to do any grinding is before the mossdeep gym

+1 towards turn-based games for your commute, keeps it easy to still be engaged with everything around you so you don’t miss a stop or something. i really love the Mystery Dungeon games, which are roguelikes in the literal sense that they’re procedurally generated dungeon crawlers where you start from scratch (or scratch-ish depending on how beginner friendly the title) when you die. the pokémon spinoffs are the most well known but there have been a lot of crossovers with other series as well as a line of completely original games called Shiren the Wanderer

i also have to mention Densha De Go, not because they would be particularly feasible but c’mon. don’t you wanna drive a train while riding a train? it’s real-er than VR!

um obviously they mean Secret Messages, ELO’s much maligned 1983 penultimate album that has since developed a cult following surrounding the original planned 2LP tracklist before it was reduced to one disc shortly before release

i can’t be the only one who saw the name and immediately thought Saturn and not Playstation, right? now that i would not be able to resist! huge props to Taki Udon for his efforts in making FPGA systems more affordable but he’s gotta hire a Name Guy
