After being forced to "upgrade" to Win 11, I find @microsoft.com Dragon Naturally Speaking won't work unless I upgrade to 16 for $700. Without Dragon, it took me 15 min. to type this. So, I have no choice. God bless disability tax. Beware, fellow disabled peeps.

People are acting like Miyamoto said "oh it's so hard to play old games" but the point was about the progression of time and the IPs. He mentions the Virtual Console right there.

So this is just legitimate ragebait. The context was specifically about expanding the Nintendo IPs and the Nintendo Museum where they can see and use old hardware. Here's the question and answer

Discworld QOTD, from Feet of Clay

No more kings. Vimes had difficulty in articulating why this should be so, why the concept resonated in his very bones. After all, a good many of the patricians had been as bad as any king. But they were...sort of...bad on equal terms. What set Vimes's teeth on edge was the idea that kings were a different kind of human being. A higher lifeform. Somehow magical.

My Windriders are finished! They always kick butts on the tabletop and I'm happy to have them FINALLY painted up after so many years of winning me grey victories! #aeldari #eldar #nerdlings #warhammercommunity

3 wind riders with dark green visors and bone coloured armour fly at 45 degrees to the camera

The same 3 models fly towards the viewer

seems that RFK is clearing the path for his CDC to do tuskegee syphillis experiments as a matter of course. in other news, RFK is a genuine monster who relishes in the pain and suffering of those he feels he has control or dominion over

Julia Lynch @jlynch13.bsky.social · 6h

RFK is undoing human subjects protections so he can conduct placebo trials of vaccines. That means infecting people knowingly. I wonder who will “volunteer” for these trials? If history is any guide, a lot of incarcerated and other powerless people.

Drug Monkey @drugmonkey.bsky.social · 7h

Dismantling the Institutional Review Board (IRB), that oversees all human subjects research, is bad. Really bad.

It is strange, yeah. I have personally enjoyed each Pokémon game I've played, some more than others sure, but they have all pleased and entertained me.
