Sonic 3 & Knuckles and Kirby Planet Robobot for the same reason: while not the most innovative games and not necessarily my favorites in their respective franchises, they represent nearly flawless implementations of their respective franchise’s ideas.
Sometimes I feel like Mario and a couple popular indie games are the only platformers that get taken seriously honestly.
The last hold outs of a wilder Internet?
In a way they are. They just also serve as a reminder of why not too many people want that wild internet anymore.
West in my opinion should grow out of their shame about what they did to Jewish people. And start calling out them for the horrors Jewish people are doing.
Mild disagree. What needs to happen is that the shame has to be about what was done instead of who it was done to.
Star Citizen is what iRacing players look at to feel better about themselves
Actually that’s too mean to iRacing players since iRacing works
I’ve never seen a wind turbine in person but I’d imagine no more than buildings and a lot less than most other power sources.
Norway, where Tesla is becoming the most popular car brand
How the fuck are Norwegians affording that
I’ve honestly just come to the conclusion that being an asshole about the fact that other countries exist is just the continental past time of Europe.
Like, Americans get the most of it but they’re like this toward people from other European countries too.
Pizza. Every time I’ve tried it’s stuck to the stone and when I just got something to cook it was no better than the local place.
I would love to have them, but Meta being the largest fediverse instance by far means it’d give them too much power over the fediverse.
Terraria.
Because to me Terraria feels more like a freer version of a Metroidvania than a survival game. And while you start weak you get downright overpowered.
If the game has a good enough character creator I’ll play a male. But most games and especially most Western games with character creators don’t allow me to make a male character I’d actually want to look like or at.
“Merry Christmas” is pretty much the only context I see my fellow Americans use the word “Merry” other than deliberately trying to sound upper class British.
Same engine (Build)
Take your pick between PS2, OG Xbox, GameCube, Dreamcast, or SNES. I just think those are the consoles with the strongest libraries.
Most Americans do not live nearly as well as it is portrayed on TV or in movies.
I think American TV in the last ten years has started to portray people as richer than it did in the 90s and 00s even. Is there anything like Everybody Hates Chris or My Name is Earl on? Shit, even Malcolm in the Middle they were clearly middle class but I feel like most American TV now is about upper middle class people or Hollywood. (I’ve heard of Abbot Elementary but haven’t watched it.)
Not true. So much of the US, including many cities is uninhabitable or at least extremely inconvenient without a car due to a lack of planning that supports a car free lifestyle.
Also, while the majority of Americans live in urban areas, the rural population is not so small as to be insignificant.
The long term solution is to improve infrastructure and zoning laws to reduce the car centrism of the majority of the USA, this is already being done in many cities, but for the time being most Americans need a car.
I think it’s a coin flip. You could point to ten reasons it’s “obvious” Trump will win and I could give you ten reasons it’s “obvious” he won’t.
This was maybe true 7 years ago or so. But I can’t name a single meme that has come out of 4chan since Soyjaks went out of fashion (and I honestly think Soyjaks directly killed 4chan’s relevance to wider internet culture.)
Papa John’s is the least bad chain pizza IMO. I find myself getting them for sheer topping selection despite living near better places.
Pizza Hut is the real worst. Well, without factoring in cost, Little Caesar’s is the worst, but LC is some of the cheapest preheated food at least in the US and bad pizza is still good pizza, so they get a pass that Pizza Hut doesn’t.
Game Pass is a profoundly stupid decision. It doesn’t make it’s money back and now Xbox users are used to not paying for games. And from a consumer perspective, enshittification always eventually happens with subscriptions.
