They could be laying down lol

That’s true, I only recently got a computer that could handle switch emulation but I know it’s been around for a long time. It’s probably a lot easier than dealing updates on a modded switch.

This is what I did. I didn’t even come close to getting 100% of the collectibles, but I really enjoyed my experience with TOTK. I love both for what they are. BOTW to me was a very peaceful and moving experience once I got into it. I hated it at first and hate played through some of the main story then I said fuck it I’ll just get all of the towers and open up the whole map. In doing that I kind of fell in love with the game. The different areas, the scenery, the freedom, the music, it was a great game.

TOTK didn’t have that same emotion from the ambience, but I enjoyed the story and crafting. It did feel like it was missing the uniqueness that I loved in BOTW, but overall it was a good experience. I’d love a similar style game, but in a new version of Hyrule.

Piracy is definitely possible. You just have to find an early switch model, unless you’re good with a soldering iron. I’ve had 2 modded switches for years and there is homebrew that helps you back up your saves. https://www.reddit.com/r/NxSwitchModding/comments/1cpo4r1/how_to_back_up_restore_or_transfer_your_nintendo/

You can never be too careful. I’ve lost decades worth of crap I’ve collected when drives go bad.

This is what I’ve been doing for every game since I had a New Vegas save get corrupted and I had to almost completely start over. I go overboard and make like 5-10 saves now at various points in a game.

Seriously, they build parental controls into pretty much all modern devices and there’s plenty of 3rd party software for added functionality and customization. The tools are there for parents. All they have to do is enable and configure them.

I think people who support this shit and other other laws that strip our rights away are virtue signaling, neglectful/lazy, or like you said completely brainwashed. I think that those in power want to slowly work towards banning porn completely and not just in the UK. I’ve said it elsewhere, but politicians and rich assholes like Elon Musk are worried about birthrates falling and this is just one of many tactics to try to get people to have more kids.

Very true, more parents should be like you. Unfortunately, I’ve known many parents who are completely fucking neglectful and when their kid fucks up or gets caught doing something they’re not supposed to they look for anyone or anything besides themselves to blame.

I’ve only known one person who I could honestly say was a good parent. She sacrificed everything to give her 2 sons a great life. She did everything and only put a reasonable amount of responsibility on her kids to help out. She didn’t date or go out, she sacrificed her own needs and basically was always working and active in her kids life. One of her son’s was autistic and needed a lot of extra attention and care and the other turned out to be the most responsible and well adjusted dude I’ve ever known. I wish more parents were like her.

I agree completely. I was giving a rediculously extreme example of a way they could actually try to protect kids from porn if that really was their goal.

I have no anger towards children or parents in general. I just think it’s the parent’s responsibility to monitor their kids not the government’s. Thus, the only people who should be affected by rediculous rules and laws that “protect children” are people who have children. Plus, there are plenty and religious and right wing parents who support shit like this.

I know. If they really cared about protecting kids they could force ISPs to sell a whitelisted or blacklisted “Family” service. They could even go further into insanity and force parents to only use that service until their kids turn 18. They could track kids based on their school registration and a forced Microsoft account and/or Gmail/Apple account to ensure that they only ever connect to a safe network and put the responsibility on parents to monitor their kids activity outside of their home.

They don’t want to protect kids they want to take away our rights and privacy and as an added bonus make it harder to access porn so that fewer people will use it in the hope that more people have kids.

I’m so fucking sick of losing my rights to protect other people’s kids. I don’t have any fucking kids. Why don’t they apply their idiotic rules to those that do and leave the rest of us be.

He wasted such an epic guitar build with basic strat style neck.

I’ve been asked all these questions in my job search in the last 6 months. The questions I imagine you’re skeptical about like have you ever been depressed or abused drugs do come up often. Not in the initial application but in the required personality test.

Or the inner monologues that last 2 or 3 minutes but supposedly only last a few seconds in the show’s universe

I think it’s a play on the insurance adjuster job title. Pretty clever IMO.

The people who benefit from the way the world currently works will fight like hell to not acknowledge that there is any other way of existing. I imagine it was the same for women when they wanted to break free from their dependance on men.

Same dude. I was hired as a level one even though I’ve been in the field off and on for about 15 years. My company just hired someone over me who hasn’t worked in IT since the late 90s. If you ask him about anything he claims to have worked with it, even things like CardDAV which wasn’t a thing until 2011. If you ask him any in depth questions he brushes them off without giving an actual answer and everyone just buys into his bullshit. It’s crazy how many people will take you at your word if you’re a straight laced clean cut white guy.
