So then explain why games with actual real money gambling aren't rated 18+, is gambling "imagery" with no gambling really that much worse than having actual gambling?
If your stated downside to still using Twitter is that it's a waste of time, is that invalidated if your posting tool posts to all of your socials with one click? Like most professional social media users that have to maintain a bunch of channels with the same content?
Also, who is being dramatic about how important it is to be on or off twitter?
Oh, interesting. That's like the one feature I don't really use it for. It's weird how subtle differences in what you were around for can make such big differences in what stuff you use. Like literally everyone I know or knew my age is on Discord. It's our primary social platform. I'm in like 30 servers and active in 10 of them. I'm in the discord for every game I actively play. And every game has one, I just assumed that was a common thing to do.
But seeing peoples comments about negativity and other stuff, I have never seen that on discord. So I guess it makes sense why I didn't get pushed away from it. It's all been incredibly positive and great gaming communities for hanging out in. I can help so many people, usually when I play a game, I get pretty into it. So I tend to know alot about it, and it's nice to be able to help out people with questions about it. I don't know where else people that aren't in a games discord go to ask those questions, usually the discords are pretty huge.
I think the point was more that despite their personal experiences, they are still supporting this mindset. So even if it was more widespread, it wouldn't be preventing whatever is causing this "movement".
Yeah, people in real life won't be morons, so that would never happen to us. I'm sure the company giving us the lowest bid has probably found some heretofore unknown innovation in efficiency. The end result will be just as good, but way cheaper...
Yeah, we need more conflict. We'll create the ultimate "them" for us to "us" against. Contact with them is literally lethal! Can't get more conflict than that... yet.
Just so anyone that had to suffer through this knows, the company that makes them, that you have to order them through, always makes sure to remind buyers that they will likely need at least 10% left handed ones too. Because, of course, they made left-handed ones. If your school didn't have left-handed ones or didn't have enough, that was a choice they made.
I'm thinking I got a couple copies of the dna that makes these, and a dna gap of whatever was supposed to be next in line. My virtual copy of the world around me is detailed down to the milimeter, which, according to everyone else I know, is "not normal". Comes in real handy when parking a car in a tight spot or cluttered garage. Or navigating a crowd while reading a book. But I definitely suck to a similar degree at lots of other things, lol.
My particular gaps and duplicates worked out to still be kind of useful, but I work with alot of people who got a different result from their grab bag of assorted dna sequencing mishaps. My job is basically to make sure they can still enjoy as many aspects of their life as possible, and luckily, that is pretty enjoyable for me.
Hehe yeah, "Sure, you could buy perfect diamonds grown in lab conditions that are way prettier than anything we could offer for way cheaper, or you could buy our authentically dirty or broken diamonds to -prove- you paid way more money to anyone that looks close enough to notice. Won't they be jealous of how rich you were".
If you just mean a steam controller as in The steam controller, it should already work. If you mean Vive or Valve VR controllers, then yeah. Or any of the meta touch controllers, those are everywhere at this point and easy to buy separately from a headset if you don't already have some.
Edit: ah, most of my questions would of course have been answered by actually reading it...
Yeah, but kind of a weird choice for first pick. Already not alot of PSVR2, and even fewer that have bought the dongle to use it for PCVR... how much crossover is there with PSVR2 owners and Apple Vision owners? I don't even think sony sells just PSVR2 controllers separately, though you'd have to hope something like this would finally change that.
Just weird when there are cheaper, more easily accessible and more widely manufactured options that can already be bought individually.
I think the point is that she was there specifically to confront him about it. If you plan on confronting someone, it's safer for you to do so on neutral ground, so the penalty of anyone escalating the confrontation to something physical is the same. No one is protected or at more risk. Although, of course, if the person you want to confront has more money, they will always be at more advantage. But no sense tipping it even more in their favor.
We are still mostly in the stage where it might be diplomatically avoided, but if it does start, yes, this will have been a small part of the start of it. Like the last couple of decades to varying degrees at various points. It's still potentially avoidable, but honestly, in some places, it feels like it has already been going for a long time. Currently, they don't count as part of a world war, but if a world war breaks out, they will then retroactively count as part of it. If everything settles down before getting to that point, then these will have been individual events that were largely connected to a similar crisis.
It's not like anyone knew at the time what day world war 1 and 2 started on the days we now consider them to have officially started. For world war 1, there was really no precedent. So they certainly would have had no idea on the day we consider it to have started. Used to take months to even find out 2 other countries were at war, let alone the time it took to them react to that information and muster up support or further opposition. World wars only really became possible once world-wide near instantaneous communication was available. I'm not sure how long it even took to coin the phrase "world war", but they figured that would be the only time something like that would ever happen, considering not only the cost/rammifications, but how widespread word of how bad it was could be with such quick communication.
No one would soon forget the various costs... but then we had a source of motivation that outgrew those costs. So world war 2. At least we knew what to call it this time. People were probably a bit less fuzzy on the day it officially started, but a lot of that would have to do with what country they lived in. And it still eventually mostly had to be hammered out by historians to really figure out what all should be considered part of it.
So, it's still a bit schroedinger's WW3, all these events are in the box waiting to see what they will eventually be called once it's time to examine the contents of the box.
It's never been ok to pirate a console that is still on the market. Though, part of that is how rare it has been for emulation to be feasible for a current console. But either way, it has always been demonstrably illegal. And especially in the case of yuzu where they were completely flaunting and charging money to play games that weren't even released yet. I honestly put most of Nintendo's current war path on their shoulders. That's not just riding the backs of giants, that's climbing into their faces and flicking them... ask any insect, that is a good way to get yeeted to the ground and for the giant to stop tolerating the previously benign presence of the rest of the insects.
Nintendo has definitely done some over reaches, but going after Switch pirates is not a good example of that.
Basically when not playing VR games, it'll function like an upgrade to the steam deck. Instead of having to look at a screen attached to your hands, further developing the neck pain most people have nowadays from phone games and handheld gaming, you can sit comfortably instead, no matter where you are. And it'll be able to stream games up to 4k, instead of the 1280×800 of the current steamdeck. When running flat games natively it might be restricted to 1080p, if not artificially, then at least practically.
But it does also play VR games when you want that.
An upside compared to other standalones is that it should be much easier to port older PCVR games to run on it natively. And there are a ton of good old VR games now that have stood the test of time that most people still haven't gotten to try. And with a bit of work, a low settings version of half-life alyx could probably run natively now. Along-side a potential flat screen release of half-life 3. Who knows. Would be an interesting way to celebrate it's function. Now that we have solid evidence that Half-Life 3 is actually nearing completion. And a ton of rumours linking it to a similar timeline as Deckard.
So then explain why games with actual real money gambling aren't rated 18+, is gambling "imagery" with no gambling really that much worse than having actual gambling?
