Arcade sticks are typically digital, hence my mentioning the cardinal microswitches. So I have to ask what your definitions of analog and digital controls are, and why you don't think sticks are digital. --- "A guy talking into the camera about politics?

Evening_Dragon 09/23/19 9:41:11 PM #26 | I have to wonder how common this is. I don't really remember when or how, but coming from a very classically orthodox-catholic-hispanic family, chock full of traditional gender roles and machismo, I was all about keeping my emotions in until some point, where I realized that was stupid, and anyone who gave me shit for it was stupid. Maybe I read up on toxic masculinity before it was common knowledge or something. Either way, I don't see that kind of machismo anymore, and I have to wonder if it's based more on local culture. --- "A guy talking into the camera about politics?
