  • And they call me a radical, rule

  • This is from the channel Some More News for those curious of the source.I always like watching their videos; I would share them with my friends and family more often, but I feel some of their skits would put some of them off. Otherwise I really like what they do and recommend people check them out.

  • A little of column A, a little of column B.Idk if it was because it was on an emulator, but when I played Smash for the N64 with friends, all I could think about was the controls felt very clunky and how much smoother Smash Ultimate felt by comparison.

  • Publishers are absolutely terrified "preserved video games would be used for recreational purposes," so the US copyright office has struck down a major effort for game preservation

  • Sure, but it's a start. It's certainly better than trying to keep them on my laptop. And I do hope to add more forms of data backup/storage as time goes on. It's taken several hours ripping all those games and I'd hate to lose them all.I also have an external 4 TB SSD that I keep most of the games on (excluding the PS4 games because they simply take up too much space).

  • That's what I've been doing. Been collecting various PS1-4 games on top of GameCube, Wii, and Switch games over the past year to rip and save digital copies for myself. Then I play them on emulators.I have roughly a few hundred so far and plan to expand it further.I have a NAS with two 8 TB drives in RAID to back them up and it's already over 50% full. I want to start collecting OG Xbox and 360 games in the near future, but I need to get jailbroken consoles for them.

  • Alternatively, you can contact/ask the people who wrote the paper if they can send you a copy. Usually they'll gladly send it to you for free. I don't believe they get any of the profit from the journal subscriptions/purchases. So they have no incentive to withhold it from anyone.

  • Nope, is just that good looking of a cat. I took these with my DSLR. Here's another shot.

  • what do you do when you feel doubts?

  • I keep this in my phone for whenever those thoughts hit.

  • I believe Atlas Pro did a video on it one time. I'll go check.

    Edit: Yep

  • I've been repeatedly disappointed with most modern games, so I've taken to emulating my old games and playing them on my laptop. It's honestly a pretty good time, would recommend.I'm getting to play games I loved that I haven't touched in over a decade (MotorStorm, all the Ratchet and Clank games, the good Need for Speeds, etc). Plus if there were any games I wanted as a kid but didn't have the money, I can buy most of them off eBay for cheap.

  • My brother and I never stopped calling it that. And he owns one himself. Luckily not one that needs a recall.

  • The thing is, even though it can help you fall asleep, it's rarely good sleep. At least in my experience.

  • YSK that the recommended daily fiber intake is 25g for women and 38g for men in the USA. 95% of the country does not meet this amount.

  • If you suddenly add the recommended dosage to your diet, you will absolutely have problems like that at first.It's ideal to slowly increase your fiber intake so your body has time to adjust to it. That way those problems are minimized until it's a regular part of your diet.

  • I loved the first two back in high school and college. I'm glad they're both playable on RPCS3 so I can still get my fix from them.Really wish we could get some kind of spiritual successor to them; if anyone knows of a modern replacement, I'm all ears.
