I agree completely. I would love if the popularity of mid-range handheld devices like the SD convinced more companies to steer away from the obsession with ever increasing graphical fidelity.
It's also nice having a handheld PC that is so reasonably priced in comparison to a lot of the other offerings in the handheld PC market.
Success in indie development tends to be very uncertain though. Unless you end up at an established indie studio with a good track record but it's not like indie studios hire in droves.
Mfer really took "play anywhere" to heart.
The whole handheld gaming market is pretty small. There's the Switch which outsold the last couple gens of Xboxes and PlayStations. Good luck beating that. Besides that you have smartphones which just about everyone owns and only a handful of brands being especially popular. Then you have dedicated Android having handhelds and handheld emulation machines which are extremely niche.
So either you're looking at extremely popular and widely owned handheld devices with extensive histories and customer loyalty or extremely niche devices. Not really a great comparison.
Oh yeah and what a race. The competition sure was... breathing. Probably.
Hey I'm Canadian too. Don't speak for "the rest of us." It's the Democratic parties' own gd fault that they lost. If you can't convince the average voter to vote for you when you're running against an obviously volatile, incompetent, narcissistic, geriatric moron with fascistic tendencies backed up by the world's richest and least charismatic deadbeat dad then you done fucked up.
It's not contrarianism. If the best argument for voting Democrat was "they're not Donald Trump" then they fucked up as a political party running a presidential campaign. Blame your horribly shitty Democratic party for being unelectable, not the people who weren't convinced they should support them.
The Democrats made a conscious, politically-motivated choice to pretend that Americans are not financially suffering to any significant degree (patently absurd), to parade around billionaires and buddy up with a Cheney of all people, to ooh rah about guns, the border, and the military, and to silence and shut out the voices of victims of genocide and their supporters while praising and platforming people who represent those committing said genocide. Gee, I wonder why they lost??? It's a total mystery.
The Democrats designed their campaign around reaching out to right wing voters, most of whom were always going to vote Republican because they always vote Republican, no matter whose name is on the card, and basically just told the left to go fuck themselves but to vote for them anyways.
The Democrats are a joke and they have nobody to blame for their loss but themselves. But that's not what Dem aligned mainstream media tells you, right? No, according to them you can never blame the rich and powerful people who failed to gain the support they needed to win. No it's always the fault of other, regular people. Especially if they're on the LEFT!!! No don't blame the rich and powerful! Never blame the rich and powerful! Just blame the people screaming for a political party to actually represent them.
The idea that Gaza would have been a-ok if Harris won is insane.
A Democrat victory would have meant next to nothing to the Palestinian people. Dems don't care about them either.
It's also a lie that pro-Palestine voters withheld their votes in any significant number as well. That's just the MSM trying to pass the buck onto the left while ignoring the fact that the Dems have nobody to blame for their loss but themselves.
You're buying into propaganda from the Dems's "good guy" billionaires.
America is experiencing a fascist dictatorship and you want the only party speaking against it to just stand by because the system doesn't allow them to do anything??
How about FUCK THE SYSTEM!!! Trump and his cronies don't care about it. You're not going to beat wanna-be dictators with 0 disregard for the law by doing everything by the book.
Block the doors to the house and Senate rooms, encourage and participate in civil disobedience, get operatives to physically block Elon and his felons from illegally accessing extremely sensitive data about America's allies and citizens. Loudly and passionately call out every anti-democracy, anti-American, and anti-human act that Trump and his gang are doing and explain exactly how it's going to enrich them and other billionaires and how it's going to seriously harm everyone else. Encourage and work with grassroots organisations across the country to gum up the MAGA Republican works.
The Democratic party leadership are should be the leaders of a movement defending against the destruction of America and it's allies from within the country's highest positions of power for the benefit of a small few wealthy and powerful people. This is a historical moment that is very likely to lead to the suffering and deaths of countless human beings within America and around the world, and could possibly lead to a world war the likes of which we have never seen. I want them to fucking ACT like it.
They need to do more than read dry, impassionate speeches and post boring tweets. America is dying and if the country is expecting the system to save them then chances are they're already lost.
Pro Palestinian activists overwhelmingly voted for the Dems. Mainstream media is just once again blaming people on the left for their party leadership's own failures. That's what the Dems do every time they lose. They blame the progressives, claim that the party has somehow gone "too far left," and claim that they just need to move the party further to the right.
Don't blame the activists. Blame the Dem leadership who care far more for their millionaire and billionaire donors than they do their own constituents. Who care more about their donors than they do the end of democracy.
And 10 is categories?
Especially considering... I mean LOOK at that picture!!
