Obligatory fuck /u/Spez.

This type of behavior needs to be regulated. Foreign interference isn't acceptable, and if Canada passes the online harms act then the ensuing regulator needs to handle situations like this or at least hand out massive fines for greed and indifference.

Your situation is not applicable to why the lawsuit exists.

It's the idiots that pirated and leaked TOTK a week before the release date that gave Nintendo ammunition for this case. As a result, everybody who is using Yuzu legitimately will suffer for it.

It does exist: that's what Late Stage Capitalism was all about.

Honest fact based journalism is an essential pillar of a functional democracy. Being informed is absolutely in the public interest, and government funding should support it, precisely because it often isn't profitable or sustainable for private companies (as we keep seeing over the years).

I don't understand why this is so hard to grasp. And the people whining about liberal bias and calling for defunding of public media are missing the forest for the trees (even if some of the journalism is questionable in quality).

This piece of trash needs to be arrested and extradited.

Even a scooter or motorcycle is better than a car (though not necessarily safer).

Sadly, no. Bluetooth or wired only.

I think the part that hurts is that nobody in the Israeli government has any idea what to do with Palestine and its people after the shooting stops, other than the far right nut jobs calling for expansion of Israeli settlements and de facto ethnic cleansing of the land.

Without a viable strategic end goal other than the destruction of Hamas as a military force and political entity, and a refusal to recognize a Palestinian state, what other conclusion can bystanders reach aside from seeing this war as an effort to destroy or displace the Palestinian people?

Consider the KK3pro max (which I left feedback on in another comment), or the Flydigi Vader 3 Pro, but be careful of quality control issues (you'll have to carefully test third party controllers during the return period to make sure everything works no matter what).

I bought a KK3Max and it's a really good controller, with a couple of caveats.

It has the best control sticks I've ever used, hands down. Hall effect sensors instead of crappier potentiometers like the official switch pro controller mean no risk of the infamous stick drift. Very responsive, and allow me to raise the stick sensitivity for the most precision (still prefer a mouse for FPS games, but for every other genre it's a good alternative).

The analog triggers are excellent and a physical toggle lets you switch them to digital triggers. Alhough the triggers are spongy in digital mode, with a fair amount of travel time before registering the input, you can open them up and mod them to eliminate this delay. Apparently it was added after product testers complained about the triggers being too sensitive or something (which I wish they didn't).

The buttons are solid, without sticking. D pad is good, though I prefer classic D pads from older Nintendo controllers like the Wii U and the SNES (the switch pro D pad is trash). Back paddles are welcome, though the lower paddles are less ergonomic unless you bend them to rest closer to the back of the controller. You should also note that the back paddles can only be assigned to other controller buttons, and not unique key binds. The gyroscope is also perfect in Switch mode, though I wouldn't recommend it in Xinput mode because it can feel wonky and imprecise. This controller also has a form of HD rumble, and even carries an NFC sensor for Amiibo support.

The big caveat is the input delay when connected by Bluetooth. It can be noticeably slow, even in Switch mode, adding a good 40+ ms of lag. For most games that don't rely on precise inputs, you can eventually adapt, but to resolve this issue for games like Super Smash Bros or racing games, I'd recommend a long Usb C cable for the Switch, or to use the 2.4 GHz adapter on PC.

One more thing I'd note is that this controller doesn't come with proprietary software to customize input mapping. This is a positive for me because I don't care for bloat, but for others that would prefer extra customization options, it's a sore spot.

It's been about a month, and I haven't had issues with quality control or component failure. I'd recommend the controller for people who don't want stick drift, and enjoy a controller that punches above its weight (the Xbox elite 2 controller that rivals most of its features costs more than twice as much). Although its input lag in Bluetooth is a big headache, its performance is exceptional by wire or dongle and it almost completely outperforms the official Switch Pro controller IMO (which still suffers from stick drift and has a terrible d pad).

Gut the police budget because this is a city without crime!

I'm going to enjoy watching the UCP squirm when the water wars arrive.

Bro, who tf are you talking to?

The Spanish empire is horrific in its treatment of indigenous people in the Americas.

Ask any Algerian about the French Empire.

King Leopold's crimes against humanity in the Belgian Congo are impossible to ignore.

Just because the other empires aren't talked about as often, doesn't mean they're forgiven.

That's a good point. It doesn't have to replace all use cases, but just handle the most common ones more efficiently (without being prohibitively expensive to purchase).

Change is scary for people, but we must adapt to free ourselves of our addiction to oil and gas.

I agree with all of you, though the fight for expanded public transit will be even harder than that of electric cars (just look at Toronto's light rail/subway woes)

There's several big problems that impede adoption of electric cars, one being limits to battery technology (like winter performance, charging speeds, and mileage off a single charge). Although they have gotten better over the years, there's still more room for improvement. Another issue is that a sizeable chunk of the population lives in rural and remote areas, where the necessary infrastructure to support electric vehicles simply doesn't exist. But even in more urbanized areas like Southern Ontario, the network of charging stations for electric cars is not consistent enough for many people to switch. There's no excuse there - multiple Provincial governments failed to address this problem due to a lack of vision and forward thinking (or lobbying from automakers against green policies and infrastructure that hurt their bottom line), while most voters were too busy worrying about carbon footprints (corporate gaslighting) rather than discussing long term solutions.

Ukraine is a bulwark against Russian aggression. If it falls, Russia will be emboldened to bully other countries with impunity. That isn't being a war hawk - it's defending the status quo and its benefits.

I'm sorry you feel this way.

Try to remember that the internet is not fully representative of real life. The world outside will hopefully feel less angry and stressful than this online one.

Definitely avoid social media doomscrolling. It's fucking toxic.
