Not always. Wasn't Obama essentially a nobody before the primary season for the 2008 election? Came out of nowhere, but had enough deep state support that he swept through the competition with his 90%+ positive media coverage.

I just tested it. Thank you for this, it works great.

If you're interested, Harbour Masters made a few other PC ports of N64 games. There's Zelda: OoT (Shipwright), Zelda: MM (2Ship2Harkinian), Star Fox 64 (Starship) and Mario Kart 64 (SpaghettiKart). Of course, just like your Perfect Dark port, they all require a "legitimate" ROM of the original games, as well. One of the very interesting features of their Ocarina of Time port is that it has an in-built feature to play a randomizer mode, with a ton of different settings. Hopefully they'll implement the same thing in Majora's Mask soon as well.

And I guess I'll also ping u/AlfredicEnglishRules, since it seems to be a trend.

Yeah, like that violent old woman who viciously assaulted the bottom of an RCMP officer's horse's hooves with her face and body. Criminals like her, shamelessly attacking upstanding government employees like that, belong in jail.

Before I look into that, I have to ask: how are the controls? Would they be any different from simply playing it on a N64 emulator?

I know that someone made a version of GoldenEye where you would move with the keyboard and aim with the mouse, which apparently made it a far better playing experience. Would this be the same control scheme, or would it still recommend playing it with a controller?

As much as I would absolutely love to have a good sequel to Perfect Dark, I have no doubt whatsoever that they would've just fucked it up.

It's probably better that it never happened at all. I heard that even their attempt at remaking the N64 classic on the XBox was shit, and that was about 20 years ago. Can't even begin to imagine how bad of a job they would do now.

XBox is still a thing? I thought they dropped the console division years ago.

Sounds a bit like Tyrus on the Gutfeld show. Constantly talking about being black, and does have some black features in his face, especially his nose, but he's white.

Hearing him talk about being black always just sounds off-key, somehow. Like when I was watching randomizer races of A Link to the Past on youtube, and the commentators would be calling one of the runners "she" during the entire run, only to hear the very distinctly masculine voice in the interview at the end outing the guy as being a man.

No. I don't. Players should expect to hear people shout obscenities at them to distract them. Not every sport is like tennis, where it is demanded that the stands be silent during play. Have you really never been playing on a field and had players on the opposing bench shouting at you that you sucked? This is just a variation of that.

I honestly can't understand why people are clutching their pearls so tightly because of this. Acting like mere words warrants such a disproportionate response feels like the same kind of justification that black people use to chimp out whenever someone calls them niggers. I don't agree with their reactions in those situations, and I don't agree with this one, either.

Have you ever been to a comedy show outside of North America? Or watched one on youtube? Many people pay to attend them just to heckle the guy on stage. It's to the point that English comedians have remarked in interviews how different it felt to do a show for Just for Laughs in Montreal, because they'd be able to do their whole bit without interruption. Would paying to do that be your cup of tea? Probably not, but it's still surprisingly common. It also teaches the comedians to not be so stuck up, to get a sense of humour, to have thick skin and to be able to improvise a counter-barb on their feet.

This was such a trivial jab from the fan, that the league's reaction is entirely over the top, in my opinion. They should grow up. It's just fucking words.

Well. Sounds like we aren't good allies to them, that they don't even consider us as being allies in the first place, and that we should immediately stop supporting them in any way whatsoever and should just leave them alone completely.

I'm fine with that. We should absolutely do it.

That's it? "I messaged your mom"? That's trivial. Just a variation of the generic "I fucked your mom" that people told others constantly in high school. Did the fan even know that his mom was dead?

This seems just so insignificant a barb that it doesn't feel like it deserves those consequences at all. The player and the league need tougher skin.

Maybe they know he's fucked regardless, so simply choosing the cheapest option in order to keep as much money to themselves as they can. They likely couldn't gives less of a fuck about their image, beyond whatever grants them the most donations.

The tweet was mentioning different times at which each country's ceasefire was supposed to begin, with Iran stopping hours before Israel had to stop, which was odd.

I don't know exactly when Iran was supposed to stop, though.

I tend to think people care more about FF6 characters than FF8 characters, but that might just be my own biases talking.

Terra, Locke, Celes, Edgar, Sabin, Cyan and Kefka are all far more memorable to me than Squall, Rinoa or Quistis.

The only detail I would add is that I did hear some reports that the LAPD were unusually quick to use weapons on the mobs. Not the National Guard, but the LAPD, which acts under LA mayor Karen Bass' orders. Presumably, the intent would be to create a narrative of police brutality in order to paint Trump as a tyrant and blame it all on him.

So even if democrats burning democrat cities is not even remotely strange or out of character, the events are still significant simply because of the narrative that the media is likely trying to spin before the midterms, even if it's a year too early. Anything to reduce Trump's approval rating.

It's strange to see Domitius appear active and approachable. Feels like something we haven't seen in years.

Isn't Blackrock owned by Jews?

Edit: Also, let's not forget that in the 2020 "Summer of Love", George Soros' various organizations and subsidiaries, such as Media Matters, ActBlue, BLM, Antifa, etc, were responsible for the vast majority of the violence. I would be extremely surprised if they weren't the most involved party this time around, as well. Likely far more than Blackrock or Vanguard.

Seems like it, yeah. A cuck as Mr. Fantastic, a fag as The Human Torch, and an effeminate twink as The Thing. And of course, the main character is The Invisible Woman, a girlboss, dependable, stoic leader.

"They may resist using public services [...]"

Good. They shouldn't have access to them, in the first place.

You should absolutely do it. Ask them if you could apply to join at the same time they visit, too.
