Stickdeath.com was wild, I loved it. I rewatched some recently and did not remember how racist they could be though.

You can’t “experience” nothingness. Even if you could, you can fear things you’ve experienced before…

What handheld is he playing in the top image? Looks too small to be a steam deck

Oh OK

Northerners weren’t simply more high minded than southerners concerning slavery - industrialization lessened their dependence on slaves to the point where they could abandon slavery without the economy crumbling.

Presumably this would happen in the south as they industrialized as well.

We grant you the rank of EU member, but you are not in Europe.

Edit: For those of you taking this seriously, it’s just a play on a stupid star wars meme

As someone who came into the series at elden ring, I agree with you. I initially tried a mage and it felt quite a bit more difficult than sword and board.

The game felt like it was designed for physical weapons and shield, whereas with magic the difficulty was all over the place - easy time with one boss, nearly impossible on another. If you aim for a boss cheese build maybe magic is easier.

Also who says “anyone can become president”? Liars and the gullible, I guess

What’s wrong with whacking it to sports illustrated? Who is being harmed?

Don’t like the sound of that

You always finish an entire TV series?

Do you just remember where you are in every show (or movie that you only partway watched)? That’s the biggest appeal of jellyfin/plex to me, so I can go in and continue from where I left off without keeping track.

Agreed. I saw this and thought it looked beautifully passive aggressive

Are we head canoning Kira as bi now or is she including mirror universe Kira in this? Or maybe I missed something in several watches.

I liked 5 because a few large cities (going tall) was way more viable, which I prefer over making tons of little cities (going wide).

If it’s a subcategory of console then it is a console. Otherwise it’s like saying a square is not a rectangle because it is a square, or a cat is not a mammal because it is a cat.

That’s why I say you are searching for a term for things like the Xbox and Playstation - because it would be useful to have a term for that. Simply “console” is not a good fit imo, but you may disagree.

Ah, that does clarify a lot. You’re wanting a term to refer to the Xbox and Playstation class devices since they’re in this closely competing realm, but people already have a preconceived notion of what a “console” is (I would consider handheld to be consoles, for example).

It does seem like it would be useful to have a term for those.

The person I was responding to was citing costs accrued for screen and battery as a reasoning for why steam deck is not a console, so I was giving an example (wii u) that contradicts that reasoning.

I don’t actually care if you consider the steam deck or wii u or anything is a console or not. My point was that I don’t see a concrete definition anywhere in this thread and that maybe a more nuanced view would be appropriate.
