I'd need to invest 410€ for playing TOTK (the game, Switch, Pro Controller (ain't gonna play on the minuscule Joycon controllers)).

…and I think I created my account when I was in the UK because all of my rates are in pounds which means that the licenses are actually more expensive than I think.

@zeldatra I could swear I saw where to change the region in the google settings. Ad-hoc I can only see the help page for the Play store https://support.google.com/googleplay/answer/7431675?hl=en&sjid=2903081056934453095-EU

@adiwan nah, I’m talking about my music clearance service, which exclusively shows me prices in pounds and says my location is the United Kingdom (but the company is headquartered in London, so. Maybe that’s why)

@scribus tears of the kingdom not being multiplayer is a wasted opportunity in general tbh, the amount of insane papaya you’d be able to do with the Rust building mechanics… you don’t even need to justify a second Link, the game does it for you with the Naruto shadow clones that everyone seems to be able to use now.

@zeldatra Man, I have got to overcome my Fallout New Vegas addiction so I can get addicted to Tears of the Kingdom already

I keep running into this problem where the things I write are usually totally cool on the internet where nobody can really stop me from describing mangoio in the crudest terms possible, but right now I’m writing for what is possibly going to be on television and those same words would probably get me a very nasty letter from standards and practices. It’s very hard to go from writing like you’re your own boss to writing in such a way that won’t lose the network twenty million dollars in Wendy’s advertising.

@zeldatra Do like other great shows did: invent new dirty words! Battlestar Galactica used *frak* all the time. It's not about the word, it's all about the inflection. I believe the most innocent word can be turned into a swear word when it's used as a swear word long enough. Using adjacent words can be also a nice opportunity to widen the vocabulary.
-
@adiwan Oh yeah, for real. My great-grandma would never, ever cuss... but she made "fool" sound like the *real* F-word if she got riled up.

I am Irish so it’s perfectly okay for me to say racist things about the Irish (but I’m also trying to get an Irish studio to co-finance something for me so maybe I shouldn’t)

@zeldatra It's the duck typing principle: If you walk an American and you talk like an American, then you're American. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Duck_typing

@shyderp You're both still alive so that's good news, there was a non-zero chance of that being the case

@scribus I would like you to know a sex doll website signed up to reply to this dash with "bad bad"

@thelastgherkin Well met.... Lol

OK.... Tears of the Kingdom... What does "tears" refer to? Is it the liquid coming out of the eyes (for example while crying) or is it the edge of two pieces of a material/object that has been ripped apart (for example tearing a piece of paper in two pieces)?
Friday, 12-May-23 13:18:20 UTC from web-
@thelastgherkin Aaah... So it is not derived from the German word "Tier" (plural "Tiere"), which means "animal".

@scribus Good lord I wish, the previous game indirectly mentioned the events of Twilight Princess exactly one time and that seems to be the only acknowledgment Nintendo is willing to give that game.

next time something like NFTs drops that could make me a ton of money but is ethically unsound, could somebody please let me know before you tell everyone else so that I can get in early and when the whole thing explodes I can be like “damn they hired death squads in WHICH developing nation? Oh man I didn’t know my bad dude” and run off with the money while publicly taking a stand against whatever terrible thing I’ve been complicit in

@adiwan I'm always torn between actually having a conscience and wondering if it's already too late until it actually is too late
-
@scribus Yeah. I think the same of the stock exchange. It's a huge and legal gambling machine.

@adiwan See, that's why I just goto Vegas. They're honest about fleecing you, and sometimes you get a free buffet!!

*by overworld, I of course mean Hyrule. The area you spend the first bit of the game in is also an overworld.

Ooof... The new Youtube redesign of the browser-side interface is awful.
I wanted to read some comments and scrolled down but it was greeted with more video recommendations. The comments were like on mobile tablet where they popped up on the side upon clicking a special button to reveal comments. I saw this redesign only once. Apparently it was very temporary as I haven't seen it since. I'm not very hopeful it will stay that way.Tuesday, 02-May-23 08:18:17 UTC from web -
