  • Maguire!Spider-Man is still my favourite live-action rendition of the character; Holland's version gets nowhere close.
    Okay, so my Switch emuMMC just got banned...can I unban myself by scrapping that emu and making a new one?

    emuMMC is supposed to be kept offline, with sysMMC being online

    So how do I get game updates and DLCs now, then, since I can't do it legit anymore...?

    Just have to hope someone dumps them and posts them online somewhere
    I prefer DOOM (2016) over Eternal, honestly, because the latter has most of its alt costumes locked behind seasonal 'Challenges', some of which involve the crappy multiplayer, and there isn't any way to get costumes from previous seasons.

    I just absolutely loathe that seasonal system, and just how heavily it's pushed.
    Additionally, I liked 2016's GUI design more than Eternal's, since the older one is just cleaner, simpler, and much more visually appealing. Furthermore, 2016's runes are just better than Eternal's.

    Oh, and no need to create a pointless Bethesda account with 2016, since that's not required! For whatever reason, it is in Eternal, even when you don't give a crap about MP; can't even get to the title screen without logging in. Why not just relegate that login to the MP instead, huh?
    Why does the word "thongs" mean different things in Australia and US? It's unisex footwear here (what you'd call "flip-flops"), but over there it's a female undergarment; why?

    I would guess the Aus use of it is a reference to the undergarment with how the strap is designed. It do look kinda thong-like for your toes.
    Does Pokémon BPSP have the EXP Share toggle? Does it have a Battle Frontier, a la Platinum, or just a Tower? Does it bring back every move, and/or every Pokémon?

    According to Bulbapedia...the EXP Share toggle DOESN'T EXIST and TMs are single-use.

    Fucking hell didn't they get the memo from LGPE and Sword/Shield???
    I was thinking of getting Game Pass, since I'm basically out of stuff to play, but the next two weeks will be quite busy due to work experience...
    Controversial opinion: MacBooks are personal computers.

    "only refers to Windows" → Sinchen (Linux user) used RAGE!
    Just kidding.

    If reducing "PC" to something specific, I would have associated it with the IBM PC (or IBM PC-XT or PC-AT). Even back then MS-DOS was not the only operating system for those machines.
    Vendor or brand isn't important, but intended use is.

    Personal computer. Sure, though I see they are changing architecture before long so could be harder.
    Good example of that. Far from it.

    That's what I use mine for. I also use it for software that is only on Windows and macOS but doesn't work very well on Linux via Wine. I refuse to use Windows and some of my software for school is either Windows or MacOS.
    Pokémon would be more fun without the Fluctuating (slowest) EXP group, which takes FOREVER to level up.
    I wonder, did the P5S writing team base Zenkichi off P4's Dojima? Their backstories are strikingly (heh) similar, too much so to be mere coincidence...

    SPOILERS, but it's been out for a while, and I wanna bring it up, so...


    They both work for the police. They both have daughters. They both had their wives die in hit-and-runs. They both emotionally drift away from their daughters, trying to nail the culprits. Both culprits are still at large by the game's events. The local Persona teams help the fathers and daughters reconnect.
    AkiraKurusu

    Sure, Dojima's culprit is a mystery who just drove off before he could learn who it was, so Dojima never gets to arrest him - Yu just helps him reconnect with Nanako, who is more important. Meanwhile, Zenkichi's culprit is known - a corrupt politician - who does get arrested at the end of the game. Those are notable differences, yes.
    AkiraKurusu
    AkiraKurusu
    But the above similarities...just too many of them to just label as "coincidence". They must've used Dojima as a base, just raised his daughter's age and changed his personality and made him a Persona-wielder.
    I don't know what to do with my life; a lot of internships require knowledge of programming languages, which I lack and have no idea how to learn.

    My goddamn university did not prepare me well, it did not. I had one god-awful Java subject in 2017, that I only got through by rote memorisation; did a Python subject last semester that was all over the place. The only thing my uni did well was Network Security, as in subnetting and mucking about with routers and switches.

    Not sure how your university taught you, but before I joined I went through like a 3 hour C# course on YouTube, it only took about 2 days to get everything and I had no idea about programming and thought it was difficult before. You should try something like that and make sure you understand each topic well, and try out the command line coding then and there each step.

    Google whatever errors come up and such, and you'll get it all in no time.

    Once you understand all the fundamentals you can get pretty much any language after learning the syntax and its slightly differing rules. Maybe start with C# like I did, it's a lot like Java but more English/logic friendly, and from there Python would look very simple, and Java would be pretty much the same as C#.
    How does one start watching Doctor Who? What's the "best" starting point for a noob?
    Weird how "execute" means both to start something, and to permanently halt a person's life...what quirk of history caused this?

    Hmm I imagine since "execute" is to do something, it's similar to the phrase they use "do him in" to say kill him. Like, if almost all an army or assassin does is kill, to say to do someone would only mean one thing to them, kill. Whereas we have a different definition for doing someone lol.
