long story short nintendo. long story long they had to remove the roms they had to avoid being nuked to oblivon by the dmca rather then just remove the nintendo roms they opted for the neuclear option and removed all of the roms. at least thats how i remember it... anyway emuparadise donst officaly let you dl roms but some folks make a greasemonkey script that lets you do it anyway so it still gets some traffic.
... yeah at this rate i think we would be better off asking the modding community that bugfixes and enhances the elderscrolls games to make their own, actually i think further on that it could be a brillent idea could you imagine an open source open world by those people if you could stop them from bickering though,,,
i wont lie i tried a gacha game once... i dont understand how they are adictive outside what ive read on them. i diddnt feel any thrill or rush to play them... then again perhaps being aware of the manipulation offers some resistence to it as my time playing the game was hollow, empty and not fun. i would rather be playing puyo puyo or collapse.
theres a few ways im aware of they could hide it...
sloppy joe style minced and smothered in sauce.
lootbox surprise, by hiding it inside a product thats not see thru such as premade meals.
school lunch, where its the ONLY meat on the menu,,, of course this one is cheating but listing it as it would be a way to move the product and clame see see its selling people are eating it... yeah cus ya dont got a choice a lot of schools either ban ot heavly frown upon box lunch from home.
hmm thats a toughie,
no child leftbehind going away is a good start. but i think the problem is partly schools are not allowed to really even atempt to fund themselves. thanks to things like grants and what not from the us gov if told to jump the response they only have would be how high, changing that can allow schools to have a bit more autonomy with how they persue things granted yes this runs the risk of turning schools into a sweatshop or door to door salesmen annoyance if this happens is the kids need to be payed fairly for any work that makes profit and be able to list the school as work experence for any future resume.
annother set of things that needs to hapen, schools need to be as neutral as possable when it comes to instilling morals, thats the parrents job. i wouldnt want my hypothetical kid being taught satanism just as much as i wouldent want them taught christianity unless i was the one doing it.
annother thing that i think might improve things. community involvement with incentive of course. from simple charity work to allowing the community to donate money or resources to the school we need to tie the community to the school in a positive way as they are now they kinda are seprate and aloof this can have a positive effect on the students futures as well.
perhaps upper echilon (sorry cant spell that word right to save my life) will do an experiment to poke it,,, well either him or spiffing brit, hes messed with steam botnets before by artificaly manipulating the price of a cucumber emoji tricking them into auto buying them and raking in some profit.
in fact this is how some chains got some of their best stuff by stealing it like the whoper if the story i heard is right from a channel called magnatesmedia good documenterys there... wish the lughead would mirror his content given the mess with alex edson.
well this shit really got a rise outta me... joking aside i hope they dont get the bright idea to inovate to solve the problem remember new yorks benches that were made to be uncomfortable on purpose or the 13 degree angled toilt seat to make it uncomfortable,,, yeah imagine those princables applyed to an elevator no thanks.
of course they did standard slimey corpo damage control politicans use a similar model too. this is why archives are importent in the age of the living lie the truth is static i guess. thankfuly someone was there to snag them https://archive.is/TsvjT and https://archive.is/o8jEH .
i for one dont like the dispreportionate ammount of power and influence human resources has from the start only person who should have firing power is managorial positions as they are also responsable for the payroll usually hr needs defanged and a counterballence installed to slow abuse. one i see that looks really juicy is management hiring investigative teams from outside the company that are not related or recomended by/to the hr team that respond to hrs notices from hrs budget note for simlicity sake i include their paychecks in that fund and if there is indeed actionable info from the investigative teams report the cost is refunded and the problem employee fired.
a change of pace eh, not an unwelcome one either.
as far as games go im bouncing between everquest2, empherion galatic survial, and rimworld and in all three ive fallen for a dastardly trap of my own design called megaprojects...
just to explain a bit in rimworld im ofc builing the mega base everyone loves to do... gag me with a spoon that takes forever with just one colonist. thank god for speed up.
everquest 2 is a bit more relaxed im just doing tourist things snapping pics and getting my rat ass where its not supposed to be due to wonky colision to take better pictures and dabbling in the crafting system... huh, the crafting system reminds me of darkfall if i remember the name right if its anything like it i might have a good time. star wars once had an mmo with a crafting system that i liked too, its dust now but some servers are alive.
finally in empherion im building a world eater ive dubbed hubris, for good reasons. to give you a quick idea of scale think a 40k space hulk. basicly if this thing enters an atmosphere its beached... in exchange for that fact its going to have multiple hangers im thinking 6 that can each fit large capitol ships. a hab area thats designed to fit annother megaproject inside, a large city. lets call it new pork city, said city will also have the garden and part of the manufactury inside it too, munitions wise this thing will have as much dakka as i can shove on it by hook or crook, as for shielding as a result of the guns it will be non existent but when your armor is litteraly 10 layers thick you kinda dont need it, the thing might be able to even shrug off a damn railgun... as for speed this thing will be so slow as a result anything could run from it, thats what the hangers are for.
said it once will say it again, for the kids justifys unlimited censorship and is a disingenuious argument at best. this wont end with just one "aceptable" symbol thats how it starts, this will start a gradual degradement with no end, "violence" is bad so we need to shield kids from it, speach is "violence" so we need to gag players so kids dont learn the wrong things, imagry is bad we need to shield kids minds from it. rather then tell me i cant have steak put the kids back at their own table before jack thompson takes all the fun away as that is where this will end. a blob on a screen, maybe the blob actually has color maybe its just grey and the backdrop is just as dismal, a solid color. no depth as its not needed, to stop violent imagry all gameplay besides the chat feature has been removed, to stop corrupting the youth all imput has been removed. all you can send is pre aproved canned responses from a list. sounds like so much fun eh... they can stuff that fisherprice demolition man knock off future up their ass while singing i wish i was an oscar meyer weener.
hey, ever hear of a pyrrhic victory? its possable to win in name only,
