Nintendo 64 games.
It was the first game console I really played much of growing up. I'd go to my dads on the weekends and he had it there, so it was this magical time, playing Ocarina of Time and Mario Kart 64. I've collected nearly all the games I grew up with, as well as some I never played as a kid. I like having it, knowing that at any time I can play them, in their original forms on hardware. Emulation is great but playing on hardware just hits different.

Nobody is going to buy this I don't get why they're pushing it

A lot of games increase difficulty by just turning up HP and attack numbers, and part of the fun of souls games is that that's really not how they handled difficulty.

Cats aren't dogs. The best way to get the results you want with a cat is positive reinforcement and redirection. Punishment does not and will not work, it will actually worsen whatever behaviors you're trying to stop. Feeding at a consistent time can help, but your cat is a kitten, give it some time and he'll chill out.

"Is there a reason why Lemmy is so fixated on Israel/Palestine?"
I figure that people who take the time to swap to federated social media are generally going to be people that are a little more political...
and Israel is currently actively committing genocide. So political people are posting anti-israel posts. It's really not more complicated than that.

I know it's maybe not a great replacement for everyone, but this crap is why I stopped using YouTube and just use Peertube now.

The problem that they're not considering is that if they raise the prices, more people are going to be priced out of buying the games, and will resort to piracy. The cost of living is absurd right now, and I can only afford a handful of $60 games a year.

Kde defaults to a windows style layout, but it's very configurable by design. You can freely add and customize panels with different widgets. Kde has different design philosophies than Gnome. Even with a similar dock + menu bar layout, features vary or are handled differently.

Such is the risk of using an unencrypted social media for messaging private information. You run the same risk anywhere online.

Honestly, I'm tired of corporate social media, and it's integration with ActivityPub is the last thing I want for the platform. I don't want "big" social media accounts ran by social media management teams, posting advertisements and "content". I don't want to see how many likes or boosts a post got, or to see celebrities show up in my TL. All that corporate social media like Threads will do by federating, is shove that kind of "content" onto people's TL's unless they defederate from them, as well as all the data collection that comes along with corporate social media.
And, unfortunately, for those that USE Threads, they're at best getting a worse experience of the fediverse than they could be.

It's unfortunate, honestly. I care MUCH more for Elder Scrolls as a franchise over what they are doing with starfield, and I've been waiting for another one since my first playthrough of Skyrim when it launched on xbox 360. At this point I'm more excited for skyrim mods like skyblivion and skywind than anything bethesda is doing.

If they want to spend any money you them on drugs/alcohol... So what? Like, I can guarantee you that if I had to sleep on the street whatever gets me through my day or helps me sleep does that. Giving homeless people food is kind, but honestly it's very common already and they have other needs. I give them money, because I've almost been there a few points in my life.
