Tbh, is it really pirating if I bought the game and wanted to play it on a different unofficial platform?

I understand the main thing was Yuzu was apparently offering builds that work with unreleased games (which how tf does that work) via Patreon, but if the game’s been released and I bought it, I don’t see why I shouldn’t be able to download a ROM or even dump my own and play it on an emulator that offers better performance.

Off-topic, but there’s a character in Disco Elysium that perfectly encapsulates your comment: Evart.

In addition to helping you find your police-issued gun, the dude is an absolutely corrupt asshole, and does everything for the wrong reasons. However, he’s in charge of the labor union for the harbor in the city you are in, and he actually does a lot of good things for the workers - not because they are good, but because it furthers his political base and, if you take him at face value, he truly does believe in protecting the working class. Evart does everything very lawfully, so you can’t really arrest him for anything illegal because he hasn’t done anything illegal. So while it’s very easy to write him off as LE, he does have enough nuance to arguably be considered LG in some cases.

I really wished we got more stuff like Andor, Rogue One, and Knights of The Old Republic II that explore more of the universe outside of “here’s a bunch of themed planets with wacky CGI aliens”.

Andor and Rogue One are really good at showing what it’s like to actually be a Rebel and live in a universe being dictated by an empire, while KOTOR 2 was a really cool look at the metanarrative of the Jedi, the Sith, and the Force as a whole.

I would say I started having to think about my age after I was 25 or so, so I would say that’s normal. The only ones I don’t think about are the decade ones since those are easy enough to calculate lol

Gun with bullets, then set out to change history by shooting 4 kings or something with a bullet. Then I’ll save the last bullet as a very last resort for anything.

If you don’t like banks or the idea of a for-profit organization handling your money, check out credit unions! They’re non-profit and are generally “owned” by their members vis-á-vis the money in each member’s account, and they’re actually more focused on customer service and care than banks typically are. They’re not FDIC-insured, but they can be NCUA-insured which is literally the same thing but for CUs (read: your money is still safe up to $250k).

Also gonna shoutout Vanguard specifically if you want the same philosophy behind CUs but with an investment firm. They’re still for-profit, but Vanguard is also entirely “owned” by their members - not quite sure how it works like that, but apparently it does.

So because this “uncommitted vote” bit is new to me: if I were to vote uncommitted for the Dems, does that still count as a vote against Trump/Republicans, or is it effectively the same as not voting? Because if it’s the former then I would very much like to vote uncommitted because while Biden sucks, Trump sucks worse.

Oh sick, does that mean we can sue Elongated Muskrat for the exact same thing? Pretty sure he abandoned “benefiting humanity” goal as well with SpaceX, Tesla, PayPal (formerly X.com), and Twitter.

Not sure if you do business with them, but Charles Schwab does have a app-based MFA option - although that’s limited to Symantec’s own TOTP MFA.

iirc these are the guys working on the Knights of the Old Republic remake, right? Good news for that project if that’s the case, and good news for Saber in general!
