I think it’s a combination of nostalgia and the fact that SML1 had levels, enemies and music that were super unique compared to other Mario games before or after.
SML2 is a better game on the technical side of things but nothing in it blew me away or was memorable enough for me to recall with super clarity like I do with 1.
I’ll always prefer SML 1.
But I do fondly remember this.
The rural population isn’t the issue, it’s suburbia which is where the majority of the US population lives.
It’s not dense enough for public transportation to be viable and it’s zoned in a way that makes pedestrian traffic a non starter.
Suburbia causes a lot of problems. I understand why it exists - owning a house with a yard is nice. I personally wouldn’t want to give that up to live in an urban environment if I didn’t have to
That critical mass will never come because people don’t feel the data has been stolen from them.
Rather, it’s traded in exchange for whatever online services they use.
And to them it’s a decent trade.
I own the push mower version.
That was true of the first gen batteries. They lasted a year and then stopped holding a charge.
There are second gen batteries that seem to be holding up better, I’ll be going into my third year with them soon so we’ll see.
A lot of people.
Yes, the early days when games where literally 10 bucks an hour to play.
I miss you, Cyberstrike and Airwarrior.
Do I need sources for the failed invasion of Kyiv?
Everyone knows about it.
To what end are we bringing it up though?
Is there a point, or is the only point to degrade the actor in some way?
I feel this is one of those situations where I can say ‘You aren’t wrong, but you’re an asshole’ if you are bringing it up without a greater reason.
I don’t think the dude would be ragged on for taking advantage of the opportunity afforded to him.
Apparently I’ve been listening to the new Gunship album too much, said I was in the top 1% of Gunship listeners.
I’ve gone to playing Project 1999, an OG EverQuest emulator server.
It’s only up to velious and it’s as close to how the game was back then as you can get.
I don’t recommend it to people who never played EQ back in the day - games have changed far too much for this ancient game to be fun for most people who don’t have nostalgia for that era of gaming.
But sounds like you might, so I thought I’d suggest it to you.
alot of ppl on fedi are privacy-oriented and focused
I’m aware. I’m just reminding you that most outside the fediverse aren’t.
Tell that to the dude who will probably never have a partner.
Not everyone cares so much about that.
Someone knowing things about me in general is not a big deal.

Yes, they exist, but then so do lesbian women.
The existence of homosexuality doesn’t make the gender imbalance any less painful.****
I was pointing out that this statement you made:
Gaza has a majortiy of Muslims but never rejected “citizenship” to Jews or Christians.
Is very, very wrong.
I’m not sure this is correct in respect to Gaza.
The requirements for citizenship under pre-hamas in Gaza is your father must be an Palestinian Arab. There is no naturalization process that allows you to bypass this requirement. That is the definition of an ethnostate.
While I can’t find any record on if Hamas changed the law, I highly doubt they did considering their political stance.
Realistically a governments first responsibility before anything else is the physical safety of it’s citizenship.
If you know a percentage of a population are religious extremists which will never integrate into your society and will probably pose a risk, then how can you, as a government, take them in?
It’s a hard sell any way you slice it.
Nope.
