  • Nintendo will always care, especially since you can easily currently install emulators on stem deck, and I seriously doubt it would be impossible to install those on steam machine. Now aside from the emulation stuff, having another contender in the console market may always affect each of the companies simply because not everyone can afford all the consoles. Growing up the parents who raised me didn’t buy us a single console, so my first consoles were from the parent who only visited (divorce), in lieu of child support payments, and we generally only had one at a time until we started buying them ourselves.

    If you’re on a limited budget, even with kids, you may only choose 1 or two consoles, and your choice may be the most “comprehensive”. While Nintendo makes excellent games for kids, it’s not like the PC market doesn’t have anything for kids. Plus new consoles in a market could convince publishers to expand that way too.











  • I know this isn’t the point, but I do like to carry a set of portable cutlery around and often use it eating out. It’s usually a smallish case with metal straw(s), chopsticks, a knife, spoon, fork. Which one time lead to me forgetting my metal straw at the restaurant of course…



  • Most of my limited reddit usage is for work. I do IT work,and sometimes solutions can be found there, or at least hints. It’s still pretty low, maybe 10% or less of stuff I search for find actionable hit on reddit. Only other thing is stuff like comments on Tom Carey videos, which I do like to see. I know stuff like YouTube, insta,tiktok, etc will have em too, but sometimes I’m in the mood to see from multiple sources, and I don’t usually find those type of niche reactions on Lemmy. I do see fans of course, but not as often.


  • Republican grifters work best when Republicans don’t have all the power. They can blame all your issues on the libs and the communists and support people who will never win like Ron Paul and rake in millions. When they are in charge, the people they have to blame gets silly. Deep state, Jewish cabal of Globalists etc works for a short while, but then all the changes they said will make everything better go into place and things get even worse.

    Even worse for them is those who straddled the line to be able to market to whoever was in charge (the Phil’s, Harveys, Ozes etc) decide to either join the “strong” or just finally stop faking who they were in the first place and find themselves in an oversaturated sea of people pulling the same grift. With ever poorer marks.
