Being able to play Super Smash Flash 1/2, Stick RPG, Desktop Tower Defense, and my all time favorite Mario World Overrun has been incredible. Super impressed with the project.

Total opposite for me. Could get lost in Kenshi, I watched a review on qud in bought it and was like uhh wtf do I do lol

My favorite bit is how offended Larry gets at people thinking of George as a schmutz lol

My commute; this is a fun way to show how car centric America is lol

So I can't be proud of being from my country? City? Neighborhood? I don't think it's so black and white unless you have another term to describe being happy about where you're from.

I know you said transition away from news sites but Easynhk.com is always a staple

Twitter is honestly great since there's so much variety, not to mention there's a lot of artists who'll post full chapters of manga. You just have to curate who you follow to avoid musk stuff.

I'd also say just watch some YouTube videos. It's a good way to practice listening and most YouTubers will personally subtitle their videos as well so you can follow along while reading. A particular favorite way for me is to watch videos of Japanese people travelling/living in America/English speaking places. It's fun seeing their experiences with everyday stuff for us; a channel I watch a lot is called Kira Kira USA. They post videos frequently, use a lot of day to day Japanese, and get to see viewpoints from the various family members.

Good luck!

Can I get a summary of what's going on in Chinese Linux land? That seems pretty interesting; I always wonder what programs the East uses vs the West

Fuck the sun

Xbox will still exist as a platform, just not the console. It'll probably just be stuff like the Xbox ally x; Xbox partners with brands to sell hardware with cut down versions of windows that has access to 3rd party markets like steam and such, but a major emphasis on the Xbox/windows store.

Either way, I don't think there has to be a third platform if Xbox went away. PC looked kinda shaky there for a moment in the '00s/'10s, but at this point it seems pretty well poised to become the dominant platform. Xbox and PlayStation already port games to steam and even GoG. Nintendo is the harder nut to crack, I'm not sure what'd it take for them to get out of the hardware business. I read somewhere they have enough cash on hand to operate at a loss for like a decade or something.
