Paul Kidby, by far the best Discworld illustrator! Pratchett said the characters look the way he imagined them 90% of the time.

Yeah, I’m not aware of any “dwarves make good food” tropes.

I jailbroke my Switch last year when they went after Yuzu because fuck Nintendo. It’s a launch model, so no soldering or external hardware besides a jig was required. If it were a newer model I wouldn’t have gone through the trouble, but it’s been great not having to give Nintendo any money to play Switch games as well as to be able to run homebrew and emulators. I think I’m going to go with a Steam Deck rather than a Switch 2 - I’ll miss the exclusives, but $400+ for an underpowered console is just too much to be worth it any more, and I’ve gotten used to being able to just load on whatever games I want.

That’s a good choice! Probably the most popular one of that year. I never had a 2600 and started with a 5200, so my knowledge of it is lacking.

Gen X version:

(Had to cheat and put an arcade game for 1980, because I’m not aware of any notable console games from that year. In reality the console games from then looked much, much worse than Pac-Man)

One of the most blatant thought policing policies I’ve ever seen. This China or Russia style shit.

Pleasing the corporate overlords by suppressing anything they don’t like.

Basically, anything that the US oligarchy doesn’t care if you talk about is safe. For now.

It might be worth scrubbing it, but not deleting, because all deleting does is remove your username from any posts still up and prevents you from having any further control over it. I scrubbed as best I could, but there are still old posts that weren’t caught that I can manually delete when I find them because I left my account up.

Oligarchies are a hell of a drug.

It’s real, but it’s quoting Trump.

Oh, good, I thought it was one I actually use.

I hacked my Switch right after Nintendo pulled that Yuzu BS, so it’s been jailbroken for one year now and the last time I gave any money to Nintendo was in May 2023 for Tears of the Kingdom. I recently updated it to the newest firmware in preparation for Xenoblade Chronicles X this month. No updated emulators? No problem!

Well, now they’re openly hostile instead.
