"They" is plural. Why are people saying it? Are people to lazy to make a new word? It is stupid, plain and simple. Seriously, how hard is it to make a new word? Is there a new word? My sister's (or brother now) is asking me to call... "it" a "they". Why? Just ask me to call him/her/what the fuck a "he"? "They" is an already established word, don't fucking complicate it! Five years ago edgelord preteens called people "it" as an insult, and now it identifies gender? Wait, is it gender? Is it sexuality? Is it some other bullshit someone pulled out as a way to identify themselves to jump on the bandwagon? Is it legitimate? Is it a joke? Am I the only person confused and fucking sick of this stuff? AM I?

@HylianBran "it" typically is used to refer to objects rather than people within English, that's why "They" which is actually not plural, but one word that is both singular and plural at the same time like deer but it is different since iirc it is a preposition. Even then people just want to be referred to what they feel comfortable, and sometimes you just gotta read the room to understand that being a bit open makes life easier

@HylianBran
They/them has long changed to also be gender-neutral singular pronouns and most people already use they/them when referring to someone they don't know the gender of. I actually use they/them pronouns because I am non-binary, but I am also ok with she/her because they aren't male pronouns and that's what matters more.

    @K3Nv2, RIP Felix does great videos on the PS3 yellow-light-of-death.
  • Jayro @ Jayro:
    Eventhough the New 3DS XL is more powerful, I still feel like the DS Lite was a more polished system. It's a real shame that it never got an XL variant keeping the GBA slot. You'd have to go on AliExpress and buy an ML shell to give a DS phat the unofficial "DS Lite" treatment, and that's the best we'll ever get I'm afraid.

    @Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.

    They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's a DS Lite in a slightly bigger DS Lite shell.

    It's not a Nintendo / iQue official product, it's a 3rd party custom.

    Nothing special about it other than it's more comfortable than the Lite
    for people with beefy hands.

    @SylverReZ if you could find a v5 DS ML you would have the best of both worlds since the v5 units had the same backlight brightness levels as the DS Lite unlockable with flashme
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but that's a long shot
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    i think only the red mario kart edition phat was v5
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    A woman with no arms and no legs was sitting on a beach. A man comes along and the woman says, "I've never been hugged before." So the man feels bad and hugs her. She says "Well i've also never been kissed before." So he gives her a kiss on the cheek. She says "Well I've also never been fucked before." So the man picks her up, and throws her in the ocean and says "Now you're fucked."

    Agreed, that why I try to buy all my games on disc, Xbox anyways. Switch games (which I pirate tbh) don't matter much, I stay offline 24/7 anyways.
