Either RFK is being really dumb or he's playing 4D chess to siphon the progressive vote away from Biden. Either way, the notion that he will take votes away from Trump is laughable, especially considering who RFK chose as his running mate.

The only thing I'm okay with Tulsi touching is foreign policy. Anything else, keep her far far away.

Ronna being a plant was obvious from the very beginning. The surprising part is Mr. Rapinoe and Chucky being vehemently against her joining NBC. You'd think gaining a useful uniparty, anti-Trump tool would make them happy, but I guess their IQ's are too low to see the forest for the trees.

TL;DR version - Keith Olbermann and Chuck Todd got upset that NBC News/MSNBC hired Ronna Romney McDaniel as an analyst. #BoycottMeetThePress ended up trending on X/Twitter.

Oh no, wha-what happened? Oh no, how terrible! That's just, that's just awful. How terrible, oh nooooo!

Note how they never try to crack down on emissions from mining, refining, and transporting the necessary metals to make the batteries.

It's kind of why I appreciate the Shield Hero fanbase being normal in comparison. The tourists already hated it from the very beginning so the anime gatekept itself in a way. And the fact that it's getting a 4th season makes it extremely satisfying.

Imagine wasting time and resources just to edit 5 seconds' worth of footage.

The anti cheat they use is kernel-level, which is an automatic nope for me.

Also, the fact that the limitations imposed by the Switch's hardware forces developers to be more judicious and smart with how to spend resources. Of course, at a certain point, too weak is too weak and the Switch is quite outdated now. However, the fact it could run games like Xenoblade 2 & 3, BOTW & TOTK, and Dragon Quest XI S is impressive.

From what the rumors suggest, the Switch 2 will have Xbox Series S-like performance with DLSS. Obviously still weak raw performance-wise, but the higher baseline will help a lot.

Watch the GOP waste exorbitant amounts of money into Maryland and not put money into closer senate races.

Just ask them other questions during interviews. For example, if you ask them what's their favorite TV show or movie and they answer with something like The Last Jedi, instant reject.

They’re basically rebooting the original vision of the Xbox One. Thank god the PC platform has multiple storefronts, few of which sell games DRM-free.

I find it funny that Gorlock the Destroyer thinks she’s in the driver’s seat when the Deathfat Reaper is knocking on her door.

I bet this is a distraction from the Fani Willis/Nathan Wade scandal. The uniparty knows that RICO case is going down in flames, so they needed something to make Trump look bad and distract the normies.

I'm keeping my eye on the Switch 2, particularly when it comes to its specs, backwards compatibility and eShop cross-generation support.

If you were to say this back in 2020, I would agree with you. However, with the way the Xbox consoles are doing currently, to say they're selling badly is an understatement.

It had massive discounts in the UK and Europe over the holiday season, to the point consumers could get an Xbox Series X over 100 pounds or euros cheaper than the PS5. The result? The Xbox not only sold less than the PS5, but it also sold less in the 2023 holiday season compared to the 2022 holiday season. It already peaked during its 2nd full calendar year which is bad. You want to peak at the 3rd and 4th years.

The Series consoles have already tracked behind the Xbox One which performed substantially worse than the 360. If anything, Microsoft would be extremely lucky to sniff anywhere close to 40 million console sales. Making it even more damning is that from the court documents, 75% of the sales come from the Series S. Pretending the Series consoles sell 40 million lifetime, only 10 million of them will be Series X.

Microsoft's biggest issue isn't hardware related, but software related. The company has done a horrible job curating its flagship IPs like Halo, Forza (Motorsport. Horizon is doing well), and Gears. By the time they bought Bethesda and Activision, they were already damaged goods.

I read Prompt Pirate's pinned comment where he implies he's only going to use AI on the insufferable dub VAs which I think is based.

Remember, all of the attention towards bad localizations started because the wokealizers bitched about The Ancient Magus' Bride using AI translation (accompanied by editors).

My favorite anime English dub is Black Lagoon mainly because it actually makes sense.

Even the best Japanese VAs fail most of their auditions. Yuki Kaji, who his peers tease him for having 'main character' syndrome b/c he voiced a lot of protagonists, said he failed over 90% of his auditions. It's that competitive.

I think even if viewership doesn't drop off a cliff, the massive production costs (along with a guaranteed marketing budget) will make the show a bad investment.

Just look at how the GOW Valhalla DLC is free while the same game mode for TLOU2 "Remastered" comes with a $10 pricetag.

What the... I don't recall anyone claiming such a sort in the first place. To pre-empatively bring it up, well that is a bit suspicious.
