you're getting bad al pastor my guy

No shit

Definitely Zelda: LTTP, OoT, MM, WW, TP, SS, BotW, ALBW

I guess Mario comes close: World, Galaxy 1 & 2, 3D Land, Odyssey

Would be a tie if Yoshi's Island or SMRPG counts

I'm good with any filling really, as long as it's juicy (al pastor is often dry af). Hard or soft shell doesn't matter, but I do like a slightly toasted soft shell. Blasphemously, it has to be a flour tortilla. Never enjoyed a corn one with tacos, even ones that I could tell were really good. Leave those to chips.

Gamers don't "like" those but they sure as hell spend money on them

The point is if you make technological laggard comments then it's easy to think being anti-nft is technologically laggard, which is exactly banana's argument. You don't need to diminish the value of smartphones (which many people would actually die without) to be anti-nft.

We didn't NEED smart phones when they came out, we still really don't

They're the only devices that have truly democratized computing. Imagine your life if desktop/laptops never existed. That's how it is for billions of people.

hold up for a second- what do you think i'm arguing?

i suspect we're miscommunicating here, and i apologize if i've been confusing

Wait I was quoting FD not you

But, he was saying that NFTs might not improve things over dev-owned DBs but they don't hurt either

Wanglicious posted...

this isn't exclusively something that only NFTs can do but it's one area where it might be better as it can work across platforms. coded something for mobile? for Windows? for Windows 5 years later? that key still works to pull up that info, like a mini torrent if nothing else.

Man people really are crediting NFTs for things that databases have been able to do for half a century (and more if you include pre-computer databases)

Except being NFTs allows them to be digital products that can be sold.

Our entire economy for almost 2 decades has been selling digital goods.

I guess it makes sense to think NFTs are new if you ignore that.

so maybe theres a good use if you live in an authoritarian country or something

We do you clown

But I don't see where it hurts either.

This is a totally different and laughably weak argument. Imagine if btc or eth came out with this argument in their white papers?

But that's not the case. Blockchains have a clear cost vs dev-owned DBs. They are 3rd party infrastructure that the dev has to work with, which is much more complicated and expensive for them. Migrations and data repair might not be possible either.

It's also much more expensive for the user to interact with it. If the dev uses a good chain like eth, it ends up being really expensive, because gas cost rises with quality and value. If they use a shitty fad coin then it's really cheap, but then you're trusting a shitcoin which can be hacked or manipulated. Ethereum was also hacked once you know? So it's not bulletproof either, just the best option available.

PoS also does use a good amount of energy. It's thousands of times less than PoW but that still puts it way higher than a web request. The cost is absolutely worth it for decentralized currency, but absolutely not for decentralized game skins and shit.

The fact is, a decentralized DB for currency solves a problem that nearly 100% of people have. But a decentralized DB for in-game assets solves a problem exactly 0 people had.

Super lightly skimmed the topic so this question might have been asked already

Forceful_Dragon posted...

Source? My understanding is that the decentralized nature of the blockchain results in secure redundancy.

Why do games need Blockchain decentralization? That's the part no one answers with NFTs.

Trust is only as strong as the weakest element in the chain. If Ubisoft is selling NFTs to use in games, then Ubisoft is the lowest trust element. You have to trust that Ubisoft will honor your NFT in the game. That's 100% equivalent to traditional centralized loot systems.

Feral cats also go inside often if my neighborhood is any indication

They're cool

Symphonia, Danganronpa

Play all of them in release order. Why not? They're all at the top of the genre and aged well.

INCEPTlON posted...

Thats the other half of the equation, right? Trying to figure if I actually genuinely miss that.

You don't lol

INCEPTlON posted...

but I dont think 5 years in to a marriage is when that should happen

Not really the most important part of the post, but why? 5 years is a long ass time.

pjbasis posted...

Yeah, that's why it bothers me. I like FF7 way more than the culture and hype that was built around it.

Well afaik ff7 still exists!

Voted Baba but the answer is Outer Wilds

Anagram posted...

He only joins you as a guest party member when your party has two people, so there's no reason for him to not be playable.

No, every fight after that has 4 people that they have to split between 2 halves. So it would be very complicated to include Red in there. Plus they would have to add a ton more animations and gameplay to make him really playable since he would be part of the virtual bosses too. Very logical to cut him to get the game out faster.

Anagram posted...

This is not a remake, it's a sequel. I can't imagine how this game must read if you haven't played the original.

It feels.very natural as someone who have been steeped in ff7 culture but never played it. I know the characters and broad ideas but not the little details. I think they were targeting that exact level of ff7 knowledge.

Definitely worried about being newly single just before my 40th birthday after not having been since just before my 18th.

Don't worry, the dating scene is great rn

You shouldn't but you absolutely can

If these results on a board whose average age is probably over 30 do not raise an alarm, I don't know what to say...

Maybe say something using your brain since 62% married is much higher than the average US rate and most likely higher than Bulgaria too

Voted option 2

Probably trust police about as much as most people voting option 3

That means you trust the 3 voters the same as anyone else, so that was a totally pointless comment?

Right, it's stupid normally. But now it's kinda viable.

If you sell a used one and buy new, you can also profit right? Only the used market is inflated - new cars are priced normally

My 6 year old car is about break even right now

The IRL ones are so formal which makes them less enjoyable, but I love the concept and played a ton of the flash ones back in the day

It's more the unmerited confidence I take issue with, if he had said "I think there are probably only 2 genders" I'm not sure I'd have even responded.

Logically binary + non-binary does include everything, so that part makes sense. The fallacy is thinking you would never need to be more specific than "non-binary".

I doubt it was a banning, alt-rights nowadays have gotten incredibly sensitive and will close their accounts when people slightly hurt their feelings

Most people really have left

I also think if you want a world of tolerance then you have to put up with assholes. They are not going away.

You've confused tolerance for apathy

ChichiriMuyo posted...

Ah, yes, the absolute epitome of trying to get to a place of tolerance and acceptance... dancing on the graves of our defeated foes. I know I feel comforted by the fact that my lack of understanding could be met with my banning and cheers from others.

You wrote this post for a racist anti vaxxer on purpose?

masterplum posted...

You dont want everyone to roll their eyes at trans people because of interactions that make people believe they are the equivalent to high schoolers going through a goth phase where they believe they are actually elvish.

I can't believe the guy who can barely muster a "they" is the most compassionate towards trans people ITT. Really embarrassing for b8.

So it's a white supremacist neopronoun?

masterplum posted...

Yeah They/Them is about as far as I am willing to go

You're not willing to do this - you're forced to in order to speak English every day since you were a kid. If you didn't you would sound like an idiot, or worse, a foreigner. You don't have the power to choose this at all.

So yeah, if you're so clouded by politics you can't tell what is English anymore, then you have no choice but to call them fae. What else are you gonna do?
