    Feedback Can Dolphin replace my Wii?

    I'm an HS senior who's moving out for college in a few months, and I've been heavily considering selling my Wii / games since my dorm is tiny (approx 80 square feet of personal space). Has Dolphin advanced enough to replace the actual console? I have an Acer Swift Go 14 with 16GB RAM, an Intel...

    The Karl Jobst VS Billy Mitchell trial is coming up

    Yeah I don't think he's pure evil or anything, but he comes off as a bit annoying at times and has a habit of milking situations unless they become dead horses (especially the Billy Mitchell stuff). He gets credit in my book for helping expose The Completionist's charity fraud though.

    Coffee!

    I don't drink coffee every day, and never more then 2 cups within a 24hr period (otherwise I'll start to get anxious and jittery). In any case, I almost always use a filter / drip machine and take it with a healthy dose of milk and sugar to hide the bitterness.

    Nintendo files lawsuit against streamer for pirating games and playing them pre-release

    Me neither, not that Nintendo's particularly justified in trying to get millions from this dude; but he was warned multiple times and it's not a huge secret how seriously Nintendo takes Switch piracy.

    Windows 12 will release out in year 2025

    Same, I plan on using it until Oct. 2025 when it finally goes out of support (learned my lesson about using EOL stuff when I used W7 for like a year between 2023-2024 and got a bunch of nasty viruses). Wish Microsoft would've just stuck with it, but they've gotta push the bottom line up somehow...

    How old is the oldest storage media you still use?

    A 32GB Sandisk Cruzer I got in 2020, it's a bit bent, so I only use it for non-essential stuff like TV shows; but it still works perfectly fine.

    Have you ever lived in an extremely cold place?

    No, though I'd gladly take -50C winters if it means never having to deal with the absolutely miserable summers here again.

    I'm sick of bands and game devs releasing music on vinyl but not on CDs.

    In fairness, you can still buy blank CD-Rs by the dozen / a portable burner for like $30 and put whatever OSTs you want on there.

    Oldest memory of the internet?

    The first memories I have of using the internet in general are watching Game Theory / Pokemon let's plays on YT, with MunchingOrange's LP of SoulSilver being one of my favorites. As for my first memories using the internet on a computer, the earliest one I can recall is playing Super Mario Flash...

    "Super Mario Wonder is superior to SMB3"

    Wonder's much better than SMB3 imo, Wonder vs Mario Advance 4 is a close race, but no saving in SMB3 is a complete dealbreaker for me.

    I hate how bland and lifeless the Switch UI feels

    I feel pretty neutral about it. I do prefer the aesthetic of the the 3DS / Wii menus due to them actually having some personality. But on the other hand, they could be rather slow (3DS especially often took multiple seconds to back out onto the home screen while playing heavier games) while the...

    Do you try to finish the games you start?

    I've been trying to finish more recently, especially those I've dropped for a while. Been working my way through Xenoblade Chronicles over the past few months, and I want to finish ToTK and the new M&L before the year is out.

    Things you have fixed/modded recently

    I recently modded my Wii; it was a bit harder compared to modding my 3DS, but not by much.

    Twin Galaxies and Billy Mitchell reach a private settlement in the defamation lawsuit

    This sucks, Billy basically got everything he wanted! Luckily he still has that lawsuit with Karl Jobst to deal with.
