I am constantly amused about how “next year” has been “the year of Linux on the desktop” for 20+ years. Meanwhile, Linux & BSD have pretty much completely taken over the whole world except the desktop in that same time.

Are you talking about MK8 on the WiiU, or MK8 Deluxe on the Switch?
For what it’s worth, I’ve only played the WiiU one, and I really enjoy it. It’s go as far as to say it’s the only Mario Kart I’ve really enjoyed. I don’t have a Switch, so I can’t talk to that version.
I don’t think I’ve ever had this feeling, to be honest.
I really, really wish we could degender “guy” and “guys”. I know plenty of people of all genders that use the words in general to describe people, objects, concepts, everything. The only holdouts are people that insist on it specifically meaning males. Ironically, these people are often the hardcore feminists.
If other English words can change their meanings and be claimed/reclaimed by certain groups, why can’t others?
Take guy! Use it to describe whatever you want! Free it of its historically phallic shackles!
Not necessarily. The LLC will pay out as much as it can and then filler for bankruptcy. The individuals will likely get off scott free since they’ve not actually been convicted of any wrongdoing.
I imagine that developing Yuzu and Citra would be a huge item on their CVs, too. Honestly, if Nintendo were smart, they would have tried to buy the project somehow and hire the developers to work on backwards compatibility for whatever the console that comes after the Switch 2 is…
Yeah, of all the forks and mirrors I’ve checked out, none of them even have the Android builds. Obviously I’ve not checked them all, but still…
It runs on Android now, which might be what’s gotten Nintendo extra annoyed here, since there are some relatively affordable Android handhelds that can run Switch games at close to full speed with some tweaking.
Having said that, I have an Odin 2 handheld, and it would have been cheaper and easier to just buy a Switch and the games I want to play.
It’s not just the enshittification of their own service; it’s the fact that so many audios decided to pull their content and set up their own enshittified services.
Now, if I want to watch stuff legally, I have to have a bunch of subscriptions, and we’re back to where we started from.
I started paying for YT Premium a few years ago when there was an election on, and one of the absolute worst minor parties that’s run by a billionaire just threw money at YouTube advertising.
I haven’t looked back. I watch YT content on my ShieldTV poetry much exclusively, so adblock doesn’t work anyway :/
Google having a history of all the videos you watch via your account.
They already do this anyway. They also do it whether you have an account or not.
I would say my Sega GameGear, but I just went to turn it on, aaaaaaand it’s probably well past time to replace the caps. And screen. And motherboard…
I liked them. I also really enjoyed playing 3D games on the 3DS, especially the 3D-ified 16bit games.
Then you are a good agent! My last job was for the ATO, processing tax returns & activity statements, managing written-off debt, doing the call centre stuff. I got a pretty bad taste in my mouth from some of the tax agent stuff I saw going on. Especially those big firms, especially eTax. Agents like yourself with business tax returns and activity statements were almost universally legends to deal with.
So many of my current colleagues absolutely insist that they must use a tax agent because it’s all so complicated. “Do you have investments? Rental income? Run a side hustle? No? Then just go to myGov”
…only to find out that they just went straight back to their dodgy agent.
You missed the “for my use case” part. I won’t go into all the details, but browser and search are pretty much the only things that I can ditch at the moment.
Unfortunately, degoogled Android is still… Android. That OS has been made considerably less fun and enjoyable over the last few years by Google themselves, regardless of any of their additional services. :(
It’s almost like you didn’t read my post at all…
Electricity distribution/supply networks
It’s not just the media that gets this wrong, but politicians (who should absolutely know better). The whole reason the grid is such a mess is because capitalist types come up with some fever dream for extracting more value from consumers, and then this is sold through the media as “more choice” when the reality is that there’s literally no choice being made anywhere. You can’t choose your generator, distribution network, or metering provider. You can choose your energy retailer, but the electrons coming out of your power socket are the same. Your smart meter absolutely does not allow you to save money, any more than Amazon sales do when they Jack up the prices immediately before said sale.
Taxes
Good god there’s a lot of misinformation out there. In Australia at least, you almost certainly do not need to see a tax agent to do your taxes.
I am slowly switching back to Firefox since Google are nerfing ad blockers in Chromium. I’m switching to DuckDuckGo since their search results have become almost unusably bad recently. Unfortunately though, there it’s no usuable replacements for the rest of the Google ecosystem as far as my use case is concerned. I’d even ditch Android if there were a reasonable alternative.
As a Spotify Artist, I bet I don’t even see a single hundredth of a penny for somebody paying extra for the lyrics, either…
And even if Spotify did pay out extra for lyrics, I’m sure they’d find a way to screw my band out of royalties like they currently are anyway.
Start and Back, respectively. Now it’s “Menu” and “View”
…or possibly “hamburger” and “restore window to smaller size”. Because that’s logical?
I love how all the reactions to this are either “I love this” and “this is cursed beyond belief”
I personally would get a kick out of this as a skin for occasional use…
