It is jealousy. I mean, look how many trolls go around twisting people’s context, getting argumentative and shitting all over everything possible? If you’ve got all the time in the world to be doing that, you truly aren’t in a good shape in life. Nobody successful and making it usually don’t have the time to do that.

That said - our country seems to be at a low point in intellectualism and accountability

No, we were also this way throughout the 2000s.

I’m in my mid-thirties and I know that I’m going to be not as marketable to people even 5 years younger than me. I have a soft spot for older people and have been attracted to those twenty or ten years from me. The conflicting part I keep approaching is that if I theoretically date one of them, they’re going to die before I will and I’m not sure I’m equipped to handle it when they get older and are going to need a lot of assistance. I mean if the love is strong enough, exceptions may be made but I’m still uncertain.

Love can age like wine, but it varies from person to person.

Obviously I’m going to find those 10 years younger than me attractive, but is it really because it’s their personality or because I’m wondering how they look without their clothes? Their personality would probably wind me down quick so it’s physical at this stage.

Either you’re trolling or you’re exaggerating.

That was really all that Sega was about in the 90s. They talked the big talk, but they really couldn’t walk it. They only struck luck at best, but they stumbled a lot of the time which eventually lead to their hardware exit by the 2000s.

Nintendo’s games proved that quality is ever-lasting and regardless of people’s stance on Nintendo, very few could argue their kind of quality. They let that speak for themselves.

A lot of it was really padding gameplay to make a game feel ‘complete’. It’s amazing how you find out some of those games only had like 4 levels or 4 stages with sub levels to each, but they had to be made to be either long or incredibly difficult on purpose.

16-Bit era really did clear a lot of that up, granted, some games did try to get by with that but we knew a little better what to avoid.

I know!

And some of those horrible games are highly sought after. Cheetahmen 2? Action 52, where half of the games didn’t even work? Why the flying fuck would anyone want these? And why would anyone pay top dollar to have these? They’re garbage for a reason. From someone who had once built a physical NES collection, there were just some things I was personally happy to have gone without. Those are just some examples.

I got respect for you for wanting to play pokemon games as they were intended. I personally can’t do that anymore, not without having to shell out so much money to greedy resellers tripling the value of the games and systems.

I also cannot play pokemon normally without emulation and using fast-forward tools. When I was a kid, playing Pokemon Blue and Silver, I was that kid that grinded their pokemon party the long and hard way. That was back then, when I had all the time in the world. I don’t anymore so I need these tools.

Because the details get harder and harder to notice the difference.

I mean, I have difficulty seeing the difference between Blu-Ray and DVD, maybe in some cases if some effort were to be put in. But even so.

1080p and 4K? Barely can tell.

Things like going from VHS to DVD, yeah you can tell significantly. 360p to 720p to 1080p? You can tell, less pixelation.

Now I understand that it’s all about being great quality in greater resolutions, I get that, but really I don’t get the big freaking deal for 4K and 8K and all that.

I don’t know why downvotes mean so much to you on here with Lemmy. Getting downvotes don’t necessarily prevent you from posting as it would on Reddit.

Go to the canyons over in Arizona. Maybe even the unforgiving desert regions of Nevada. Nobody would really think to look through there and some of the conditions are challenging to traverse.

And you’re Not Steve, so I don’t see how you have an argument.

I tend to buy groceries at least twice a month, sometimes it is more than that because of impulse. Otherwise, I operate on a 35 ~ 65 budget.

I consider my monster javas, rice, pasta, coffee/creamer, oatmeal, almond milk, water, bagels/waffles with cream cheese and things to mix the pasta and rice with as essentials. They’re always staples in all shopping trips.

My shopping lasts no more than 10 ~ 15 minutes, maybe less, because I always know what I’m after. I hate having to hop around stores to find things one other store doesn’t have because while I could find cheaper alternatives, I am sometimes met with more pricier options which may force me to go without one of my essentials for a while.

My goal with grocery shopping is to extend rations as much as possible while moderating how much I eat. I do shop for processed foods like frozen and canned stuff, but I find that it actually helps my rations. I don’t particularly pick up things like loaves of bread or produce because from my experience in the past, I always feel like I have to eat them sooner or they’ll spoil and I don’t really like having to feel like I got to wolf down something as soon as I buy it.

Longevity is key to me.

But do either of them allow like embedded links to be shared?

Beep Boop.

I didn’t ask for you fucking people to argue on my god damn post, now did I? Massive reports, grow the fuck up and take your playground bullshit to shoot into the fucking sun for all I care. Reports made.

Yeah I hate that too. For me it’s always bicycles, buses or motorcycles. All the fucking time.

Then you’ve admitted that you’re a politically motivated internet troll, just by some of the responses you’ve made in this post alone. You’re just whoring for what attention you can get. You deliberately chose to misunderstand the point of an instance, asked a question that you knew was going to ruffle people and played your disingenuous offended card.

We don’t need your bullshit around here.

This is what should’ve been in Sega 32X’s place. Sega Neptune should’ve served as the Genesis’s suped up model while additionally taking on 32X games. Sega should’ve never just treated the Genesis as just a base for unnecessary add-ons that the Sega CD and Sega 32X became.

Just like idiotic spam callers, these people too, should be treated as punching bags.

Give them no mercy. Tell them they are not welcomed.
