No problem. It’s a more common term in Canada, so I’ve been seeing it since I was in high school which was like 15 years ago. In my head the “long” LGBT string has always been 2SLGBTQIA+ but I realize the “2S” part isn’t as well known.

It’s just a way of funding the BBC that was devised before a TV was something that essentially everyone had. Since it’s delivered OTA it seemed easier to tax the device itself then it was to tax everyone unfairly. So calling it a “license” is fairly outmoded, it’s really a tax. You also don’t have to pay it if you don’t actually receive TV channels.
It should just be rolled into regular taxes now, but who is going to propose and approve a new tax in this day and age? So it’s easier not to touch it.
Good summary but you missed the part where Michel left Ubisoft and they 100% shitcanned the whole project.
Gex’s voice and lines are so iconic and specific, I hope they have every regions lines. Not having them will ruin the nostalgia for any region that’s missed.
Plus, people who know Gex from memes and YouTube will expect the US voice & lines, so you really want to cover all your bases.
EDIT - Oh it’s LRG, then judging by Clock Tower it’ll be the same games with some new art. Disappointing.
Am I the only one disappointed with how lazy this is? They put more effort into Plumbers Don’t Wear Ties than this. I have no idea why it has taken 3 years to make when it look like the original game with a translation patch running in an emulator.
I realize they’ve animated some intros and drawn some new art and stuff, but it would have been nice to get a faithful remake like SMRPG, or like The Dragon’s Trap where they redraw everything and make it widescreen but offer you the option to return to original graphics at any time.
If all they were going to do is QoL improvements and stuff like that, I would have preferred that they just don’t do the new animations and instead include Clock Tower PSX & Struggle Within with QoL improvements in one package.
The way it is it’s just not enough of an improvement over the SNES original with a translation patch to be worthwhile. Which is a shame because the people most likely to buy this are the same people who know how to get the translated SNES ROM very easily.
I bought a 2DS on AliExpress. It was fine, original shell but a little scratched up. JP model. One dead pixel.
$211CAD so about $150USD. I’d do it again, I didn’t end up using it much as I had plans for it that didn’t pan out but I had no issues with it.
This is so funny to me. Destroying Twitter aside, why does he think a payments app is something anyone wants?
Americans have Facebook Pay, Apple Pay, PayPal, Venmo, CashApp, Zelle and probably a dozen others that I don’t know about.
Canada has Interac e-transfer to any from any bank account for free, so these payment apps don’t even try to expand here. China has WeChat, Japan has Suica and a couple others, I just don’t get it.
This is a solved problem in basically every country. Giving Americans one more payment app they won’t use tied to a dying service that even at its peak very few used doesn’t seem like it will have any impact at all.
Looks awesome! 7 boards too, which I think ties for most ever?
WARNING - After I did this, everything worked fine. However when I woke up the next day all the HomePods were showing “No Response”. Rebooting them and rebooting my Unifi UDR did nothing, they just refused to reconnect.
I was also messing around with Wifi to get some other older HomeKit devices to reconnect including deleting the saved WiFi network from my phone so they may have lost access because of that? However just a warning.
I was able to get them all readded but it required a full factory reset from the HomePods themselves because they couldn’t be controlled from the home app. Easy to do but annoying.
I said the complaints you listed had fixed in the new one. I didn’t say it was suddenly as good as a dedicated calculator app.
I don’t know if this just caught me at the right time or what but I don’t think I’ve ever cried laughing at a meme before. Thanks!
