Resetera has banned the Mexican President for history of histories!
Quote:Ths who some are stanning for (cw: transphobia). Pretty sure that would get him banned from this place. He did apologize for it later, but imagine the president of your country spewing trans hate, and he's the "left".

Quote:Ok, listen, I know that the sweet spot launch price for consoles is (was?) 400-500$ for years. As was for phones, TVs and other stuff aeons ago. Now people buy 1500 dollars phones every year, 2k+ TVs etc. And no one seems to shed a tear. Tech is becoming more and more expensive, mostly because of companies artificially inflating prices. When it comes to gaming systems higher launch prices could and should correlate with better specs, tho. I suppose 1000$ consoles would easily provide enough horsepower to last a 6-7 year generation cycle, without the need for "pro" versions mid-gen. And I would pay that price to get this kind of performance with all the bells and whistles (4K, 60fps, wow level ray-tracing etc).
Why would you go for mid tier?

I built a PC for about £1300 3 years ago with a 3060ti and through devious piracy and a 60hz tv I have done very well out of it overall. I wish I didn't have to have a PC to play games but I think there's value in building it yourself for all kinds of reasons if you're into games in your adulthood. I think I'll skip the PS5 Pro and get one of the 5000 series cards and a switch 2 instead, because this PS5 pro will probably be less good than my 3 year old mid range pc with dlss
Without a doubt the big drawback is having to use windows, it feels like the fucking stone age. All kinds of nonsense with connecting pads to games on launch day. Fuck off bill.

This really is a "storming the capitol" moment because the people spoke with their vote and the government is doing what they ran on.
Hearing that investors and conservatives are "alarmed" tells me that the people are probably right about needing major reforms.
You are a piece of shit, Booshka. 
You don’t know shit about how we live here and how he got the senators voters… but is okay because AMLO is lefty. 
Just fuck off to China, I know you are obsessed.
Why does someone like Booshka even bitch about "storming the capitol" the RE lefties keep saying again and again how riots are a legitimate form of protest, including violence

Quote:I know it's probably very unlikely, but if they can get Sora, I think anyone is possible.
But who would you pick?
I'd go with CJ with San Andreas because he might be the best way to get a black character into Smash. Niko would be cool too but I don't know if his voice actor would be willing to return or maybe they would do a Bowser Jr where each alt is a different character?
But again, I doubt it'll happen anyway.

Quote:The phrase "Let Him Cook" is commonly understood to have originated from the catchphrase "Let that boy cook" and was coined by rapper Lil B. The earliest known use of the phrase "Let that boy cook" on the internet is from a YouTube[1] fan video set to a Lil B song uploaded on July 14th, 2010. The video is titled, "LIL B BASED COOKING (LET THAT BOY COOK)," and features YouTuber Jordan Collier doing a stirring motion with his hand as he dances to Lil B's track "Suck My Dick Hoe." The video has gathered over 80,000 views in the 12 years since its upload (seen below).

I truly believe modern Windows is just designed to make people mad lol.
Funny thing is, Linux is actually starting to get good at gaming too. Seriously. I don't know what sort of black magic valve used to make their wine fork just werk. Works on a large majority of games, except anti cheat stuff. (so gaas slop mainly, nothing really worthwhile).
