They have survived just fine without outside help, and acted hostile towards most attempts from outsiders to do so. They don't need or want our help. They don't need our technology.
Visiting North Sentinel Island is prohibited by the Indian government. Idiots still do it anyways and usually end up killed.
Leave them alone. They are living their best lives already. No need to interfere. No need to drag them into the misery of the modern world.
Thanks for having a sense of humour about the meme. I'm also a desk jockey. Be sure to stretch frequently and take care of your back! The tension has a way of sneaking up.
It's not too late to edit your post and welcome answers from women, while specifying which topics you don't want included.
You may be surprised to learn that women can have interests besides house fix up and makeup. Men can also be interested in those channels. Why not specify that you don't want those types of recommendations, rather than ignoring answers from women entirely?
Tails of Iron. I'm having a blast with it. The voice actor that did Geralt's voice as the narrator is a lot of fun. Combat feels good. Only complaints are the side quests (optional) can be a little repetitive, but worth it if you want new gear. And the jumping/ledge-grabbing mechanic feels a bit imprecise. Overall a fun game so far.
Getting shot anywhere you go
So this is what I’ve been doing, but I always end up spending hours configuring the emulators, the shaders, everything… and then not playing that much! That’s why I was talking about the “plug and play” nature of game consoles (even though it’s less true now that you have to create an account and stuff like that).
Simple solution: don't do that. Are you trying to game with your family, or force them to watch you tinker? I've encountered ONE game where I had to adjust a setting in the emulator to make it playable. And occasionally adjust input mapping when it gets wonky or doesn't handle the way I want, usually N64 emulation because of those pesky C buttons. Never had a problem with Steam games using an Xbox controller or third party controller (8BitDo Ultimate 2C with hall effect sticks and triggers, $30). They are plug and play.
As for PC games, I never have the proper hardware to play in good conditions.
Well, not yet you haven't. But you're prepared to drop $700 on a Switch 2? And $100 per game? You can get a laptop or pre-built PC for the same or less that's capable of playing most games. Some newer games with intense graphics will have high demands for specs, you might have to turn down graphics quality for those, but there are thousands of games that can run on a bare minimum consumer-grade computer.
Again, the “plug and play” nature of game consoles is appealing. A game you buy for a given console is working fine out of the box.
Every one of my Steam games is working fine out of the box. You said you like to tinker, but you also don't want to tinker. Wouldn't you prefer to have the option? Besides that, PC gaming is virtually plug and play. Install Steam. Plug in a controller. Plug HDMI into the TV. Same number of steps to connect the Switch 2 to a TV.
I really think you should do more research on PC gaming before writing it off, and especially before giving Nintendo more money.
1984 and Brave New World
You vote with your wallet. Look at all the cons you listed and think if you really want to support that. Do you want to tell Nintendo that this is ok, and you'll pay the high price for it?
Have you looked at a Steam deck, or any other alternative like a regular laptop? You can run way more games, including emulating Nintendo games.
Homemade crust, pepperoni, red peppers.
The crust was just flour, water and a little salt. About 1.5cm thick. Once the dough ball was consistent I coated it with more flour to prevent sticking and then pressed it down into shape.
Pepperoni was sliced off a tube. It looks kind of greasy, but it wasn't too much, and I really like that it curled up a bit. I put the oven on high broil near the end to get it to crisp up a bit.
I sure don't feel safe just ignoring it, considering the frequency.
My Linux Mint Cinnamon won't boot up. It's getting stuck on this screen and I don't know what to do to proceed. Before this screen appears it shows the LM logo for a moment.
I'm a total noob and just been using this for a month or two. Did not make any recent changes that I can recall.
I always wanted to try this game when I was a kid. When checking out reviews on Steam I noticed someone mention that Sega was giving it away for free for their 60th anniversary (a few years ago), and that website is still up and running. Long story short, I tried it and it works. Replacing the localhost part of the URL was necessary as the screenshot mentions.
Green olives. Preferably stuffed with garlic.
