Unfortunately not Starlink: Battle for Atlas, which was one of the games I was hoping would have improved support implemented before Nintendo took down Yuzu and Ryujinx. There’s the Steam version, but being able to play as Fox makes it feel like the Star Fox game that the Switch is missing.

While I originally did get the game on my Switch, I’d much rather play it with the rest of my games on the Steam Deck.

I imagine it’ll run much better on the Switch 2, given how well it runs on my Steam Deck, though I imagine that it would take a lot of adjustment to get used to using joystick controls versus the touchpad controls of the Steam Deck. Perhaps however the new ‘mouse-like controls’ work will be more helpful in that regard, but I can’t imagine even that would match the precision of a trackpad.

Don’t intend on supporting Nintendo’s crazy price increases myself, and will only get a Switch 2 if a way to hardware mod it becomes available, but I think it’s a bit ironic that the one non-first party game someone would specifically want to play on the Switch is also the one that not only never goes on sale, but also got a price increase.

Accidentally deleted my original comment, so I rewrote it; not sure why other people copied it verbatim.

No; libreddit is just a read-only frontend for Reddit.

Generative AI data center energy usage is environmentally wasteful and will just raise the cost of energy for regular consumers.

Why aren’t they matching the 104%?

The U.S. isn’t committing to closing the trade deficit in services, showing that Trump’s tariffs are just about American dominance, not ‘fairness’.

Nintendo opting to forgo selling retro games piecemeal and instead expecting consumers to rent access to them in perpetuity is an anti-consumer move.

I have no problem paying for games when they’re sold at affordable, reasonable prices, so until that’s the case for Nintendo’s library, better to just emulate as much of it as possible.

The U.S. government can get Central American governments overthrown on a whim, but can’t get someone who’s been illegally deported there back?

Without Manifest V3 support, better to just use Firefox instead. Or, for Firefox extensions that are not specifically marked as Android-compatible, a fork such as Iceraven instead.

Pretending to be ‘pissed off’ to distract the public from his pro-Russian stance neither hampers Russia’s military campaign nor brings back lost Ukrainian lives.

A ‘dispute’ is when both parties have genuine complaints and are able to be negotiated with. Trump’s starting a trade war for no reason, so doing nothing only serves to normalize his actions.

“You can’t sell them until I’ve flooded the market with all my shares first!” -fElon, probably

As long as corporate news outlets and social media platforms continue to control the narrative, they can spin stories in Trump’s favor to keep his approval rating artificially high as he plunges the country into despotic wreck and ruin.

Versus Russian missiles ‘accidentally’ causing death and destruction in Poland near its border with Ukraine?

The problem is that Apple’s extensive marketing of Apple Intelligence has led to expectations that far surpass what the final product is likely to be.

Most people think generative AI is magic coming out of a hat, so even if Apple delivers at the same level as other companies, people will feel like they’ve been misled.

That’s a symptom of Google holding a monopoly over search results.

Real reporting will always cost more to produce than AI-generated propaganda, and if the former has a paywall and the latter doesn’t, people will inevitably end up reading the news that takes the least effort to produce, to the detriment of actual news reporting.

Requiring Google to both carry such content and pay for it at least ensures that it has an even footing with websites seeking to push propaganda instead.

The problem is that society has transitioned to a point where most people essentially go to Google and Facebook for all their information. Given the monopolistic power of such platforms on public opinion, there is a very strong societal interest to ensure that actual news, not merely the propaganda of the highest bidder, is what people have access to.

The responsibility of Google to pay for it can be argued, but as real reporting will always cost more to produce than AI slop pushed by propagandists, there is arguably a public interest in that as well. The alternative is legitimate news more often than not ending up with more ads and paywalls than propaganda, which will just result in more people reading sources based on less reliable reporting.

If that’s what the French want, then it’s Google’s obligation to comply and simply adjust advertising rates as needed.
