USA: We can't do high-speed rail! It'd be too expensive to imprement!
Finland: We are going to rebuild our entire rail network to be 9cm narrower entirely out of protest and spite.

I forgot I have this tablet.
It’s a Cintiq 16 Pro 2021 VER
Is anyone interested in taking it off my hands for a reduced price? I have a bad back so I can’t sit at desks.
I’m asking for 1100 CAD. I paid 1600 for it.
It’s in perfect condition unopened
Email me if you want it

Honestly, I never liked the idea of Hylia to begin with. Hylia is supposed to be a minor deity who served as a messenger to the Golden Trio, yet we've seen far more Hylia in the last three major console releases (SS, BotW, TotK) than the Golden Trio who barely get mentioned.
do you wish to have a future zelda game all about goddess hylia taking place during her time or would you rather have her remain ambiguous? 🍁

I was seven years old figuring out simple melodies from Ocarina of Time on a toy piano. My mom told me to stop playing video games in the living room. I told her I was playing piano, not video games. She immediately signed me up for piano lessons at school.
And now, I'm a full-time musician.

Many people have noted that the Primary / Social / Forums / Updates tabs are missing when you do this 👀. You can recreate these manually using the "Multiple Inbox" setup in settings. Basically, tell your inbox to include emails tagged "inbox" and exclude the social / forums / updates.

I don't mind giving Ganon(dorf) a sympathetic backstory. I'd love for exploration at Hyrule's dark past hinted at in OoT and perhaps Gerudo rightfully calling out Hyrule's hypocrisy.
But for the love of the goddesses, DO NOT REDEEM GANON.
But also, maybe give him a tea party.

My new favorite kind of meme is "here are detailed instructions on how to turn off AI". 🔨

The most searched term in regard to "AI" is "how do I turn this bullshit off" but somehow it's also worth more money than the entire world economy provides.
That makes sense sure.

I don't believe in a middle ground when you have chatbots encouraging people to kill themselves.
The only ground I'm willing to stand on is the ground where you've buried this shit forever.

"Surely there's a middle ground here?" The CEO of Helldivers 2 studio Arrowhead says people "jump to extreme takes" when debating generative AI, and that there needs to be more nuance in the discussion.

I’ll be honest the fact that CoD is being called out for using GenAi in development & not disclosing it but CO:E33 did not receive anywhere near this for doing the same thing is kind of telling.
It shows people are willing to overlook injustices and harmful practices if “they like the thing/person”
