Even before the war, the US would give ~$8bn annually to Israel.

Not lend. Give.

Israel is an albatross around the neck of the western world. We need to drop them like a bad habit.

That's nice, but even the views reflect my opinion.

It doesn't need to be a GDQ event.

I answered the person who asked why.

It's no different than watching a regular stream.

Good job doing their dirty work for them.

Prices only end in .99 to fool people like you into thinking products cost less than they actually do.

You don't need to spend that much to get a vulkan-capable GPU.

I stopped buying consoles when they started charging for online.

Feels like I made the right decision.

It's yall's fault for using windows.

Linux is literally available for free.

No problem.

I'm not sure about Super Mario Maker, but there is online functionality built-in to Yuzu.

It 100% sounds like their flavor of bullshit.

Remember the "emulation console" they released?

Yep, and some PS2s (like mine) came with the network adapter built-in!

Never going to forget the days of having a 30-foot ethernet cable running across my living room (right under the doorway) so I can play Battlefront 2, Ratchet and Clank 3, and of course, MGS3 online.

So you’re paying $59.99 for the game

You mean $60.

I recommend going the extra mile and no longer buying their hardware or software.

Emulation is in a great state right now, and it's only getting better. The fewer resources scummy companies like Nintendo have from sales, the fewer resources they'll have to go after community products.

that promised a bunch of network functionality improvements that never materialized.

Holy fuck, why do the multi-billion dollar companies need to wait until their 3rd game to have decent netcode?

Edit: And apparently even that wasn't enough, because it "never materialized."

Heck, piracy is almost always morally correct because developers are only doing the least while charging the most.

If they want to treat business as "us vs. them", then that's what they're going to get.

Copyright and patent laws need to die.

Glad I still have my solid copy of Yuzu.

Never buying another console again, and it's been years since I bought a video game.

The companies only have themselves to blame.

You mean $400.

Me using a gaming laptop, a solution which has been available for over a decade.
