So many consequential Supreme Court cases lately being decided even though there shouldn't ever have been standing... They all seemed to go one way too....

"Tangible harm." Right. Despite the company itself (MOHELA) stating it had no involvement in the original suit that named them as a plaintiff, and as a company that exists solely to process government paperwork, they have no opinion on the matter.

They said this, but it did not matter. The main plaintiff of the case that went to the Supreme Court, didn't even want to be a part of it. They were just a pawn for Boomer Republicans who greedily ate up billions in PPP loans that they may or may not have needed, before pulling the ladder up behind them and making sure nobody else can get anything remotely similar.

Fuck all of these people.

Hate it all you want, it's objective reality.

without any issue (that I'm aware of).

Not only that, but states and municipalities have made a killing on taxing it.

People like me? I would never do such a thing. That doesn't mean I'm going to blame people who did, for the actions of avaricious capitalists.

It's really easy to not be a scumbag.

(remember the Nakba?),

Unfortunately, most Americans don't.

They just stay in your gut and then later get activated and release the toxins the next time you're out in the sun for a few hours.

And we'll always have the moron libertarians telling us that it's the consumer's fault for not knowing that corporation x hid nanites in their toothpaste or whatever the fuck.

You should have known that this previously unknown tech was hidden in a product that only has (maybe) one competitor (who probably also put nanites in their toothpaste). This is your fault

As if this isn't the exact reason government exists.

I made the mistake of buying a plastic cutting board exactly one time lol

Ads you say?

I'll have to take your word for it...

What a bunch of libertarian bullshit. Every layman can't be expected to be an expert on literally everything so as to make sure they don't buy or consume a product that will hurt or damage them in some way, or do business with a corporation that will screw them over. This is literally the reason government exists.

I hesitate to wade into this topic mid-conversation, but I am confused as well because you did say circumcized...

I thought you were trying to make a math joke (Pi * r² or something).

Isn't there a cloud nearby that needs yelling at?

You kind of just described what a meme is

I imagine they're mostly going to target videos and channels that review those devices that you buy pre-loaded with 1TB of ROMs or whatever. Videos about and highlighting products that are blatantly infringing on like a billion copyrights.

If you make money from emulation, you'll get fucked (and honestly I'm kind of ok with that). However, it is a bit extreme to copyright claim videos that are just talking about said products.

With all that's said, I would think people doing video essays and shit will be fine. Then again, this is Nintendo so who knows.

Super Mario Odyssey is one of the best games ever made. And no, it's not a "sandbox". And certainly not phoned in. I enjoyed Super Mario Wonder too.

Also the new Zelda game that just came out the other day is pretty great.
