I agree.

I feel like the powers that b have people working overtime to ensure that most Western women feel like they need to consume to be accepted by their peers.

What’s particularly sad is it’s the exact opposite. That culture of consumption also comes with an aura of exclusivity. Most of these girls are miserable because they’ve been conditioned to consume as much as possible while thinking anyone who consumes less isn’t good enough for them.

It’s really good for putting them to work, not so good for making them or the people around them happy.

Personally, I’d be fine if they kept physical and special damage separate.

But things like “Dynamaxing” would be a no-go.

You know, sometimes less is more.

Just because there’s more “stuff” in a game like Violet doesn’t mean it adds to the overall experience. Sometimes it detracts from it. A lot of times it detracts from it.

This is of course all subjective and if you enjoy the additional mechanics, it’s good you have them. There are of course others out there who would disagree with you and appreciate a more “core” experience in a Pokemon game.

Pokémon: Violet except: it’s 2D, scarcely animated, without double-battles, without shinies, without several types, without terastallizing, without the open world, without the rideable legendary, and so on.

In my opinion, they can keep everything you’ve mentioned except terastallizing, a rideable legendary, and probably a good amount of your “and so on.” I’m pretty sure Pokemon games have had an open world since the beginning, but maybe some people have different ideas of what constitutes an open world.

Thanks. Screen capture isn’t quite the same as window capture though. But this works.

I’m not sure why they decided to combine the functionality for Wayland.

Fuck America it has to burn to the ground.

Come on, man. Surely you can’t be that ignorant to blame an entire nation of over 300 million people for this.

Honestly, CSS is a fucking joke and it’s solely to blame for why centering something isn’t always straightforward.

By the way, this picture is a crock of shit for people who aren’t programmers. Anyone who is a programmer will not take it seriously because programming is so much more about helping others instead of shaming them.

all apps are already built

Couldn’t be further from the truth. You also have to consider competition.

I think they exist because of ignorance.

People who don’t understand how to do a task will usually choose the wrong tools for that task.

If someone is trying to cover up their lack of knowledge, they will usually make things more complicated than they need to be.
