The whole "don't sit too close to the TV" thing is because early CRTs could give off X-rays if provided too much voltage. The problem ended up being fixed rather quickly, most CRTs you find will have a proper regulator in them, but the now superstition lasted way longer.

That's more like a guaranteed blindness, and the 3D effect doesn't help it either..
Still wish they should've ported that Virtual Boy Wario Land game on the 3DS.:cry:
You can play it in 3D on Switch with Retroarch and a Labo VR headset (or cheap Chinese knock-off). I haven't checked if you can play it on PS4 Retroarch with PSVR, but that would be good too.

But yeah 3DS with no funky headgear would have been ideal.

    Because co-pilot doesnt even show up on my pc. Not in the taskbar, not in the start menu search, and the option in settings to turn it on and off in the taskbar is not even displayed.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Well, I complain about Microsoft all the time. You seem to enjoy it, no offense. If you like using Windows, that's fine by me.

    Everything is my own opinions.
  • RedColoredStars @ RedColoredStars:
    Liking Windows or not is an opinion. Yes.
  • RedColoredStars @ RedColoredStars:
    Being able to disable copilot is not an opinion. lol. its a fact that it can be disabled.
  • RedColoredStars @ RedColoredStars:
    Yet you just laugh about it when I tell you, like Im lying
  • RedColoredStars @ RedColoredStars:
    People can dislike Windows all they want. But I will call out the over-exaggerations, misconceptions, half truths, and lies about it.

    Tired of the entire "BUT BUT BUT WINDOWZ SPYWARE!!!" thing too, when the same people give out tons of their personal info to plenty of other companies but say nothing about it.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @RedColoredStars, Companies do the exact same thing with other companies as well, so it's not just Microsoft. There are 3rd-parties like 'data brokers'.
  • RedColoredStars @ RedColoredStars:
    I'm 52 years old and one of my jobs in life was marketing research. Im well aware. I've been online for around 30 years. Everyone and their grandmother already has my personal information. One more having my email address isn't ruining my life or even effecting me in any way whatsoever.

  • RedColoredStars @ RedColoredStars:
    $300 back last year from Rakuten for allowing them to track my purchase. I'll take the money for them to know I bought a bunch of stuff for my cat and some video games. lol

  • RedColoredStars @ RedColoredStars:
    Thats what im saying
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @K3Nv2, Exactly.
  • RedColoredStars @ RedColoredStars:
    And for people to say things like "But I use all fake info". No, they don't. lol. They use fake info for all of their banking and online shopping? Fake shipping address, fake payment info? lol
  • RedColoredStars @ RedColoredStars:
    Fake name, address and payment info for internet service, etc? lol. Ill say it again. Everyone freaks out about OMG WINDOWS!! But crickets on anything else they do.
  • RedColoredStars @ RedColoredStars:
    Other windows stuff people complain about hypocritically too. Like "But but but Windows bundle junk apps!!!!" Yeah?? So do many Linux distributions. Dont like it? Use one without them. Same with windows. Either find a pre-made version without the bundled stuff, or very easily make your own installer with what you want and do not want.

    I dont like the stuff added either. I have zero use for copilot or recall. But I also just simply disable it and move on.
