Topic: The Chit-Chat Thread

Ah, well, I think he's been mentioned around these forums with leaks before, @BabyYoshi12 .... Wasn't he the one that said XBox was making Live Gold free recently? Which prompted MS to say they weren't planning any such thing! Guess we'll find out about any Nintendo Direct soon enough, though

#### COVID19 VIRUS !!! 😠🤬
35 teacher in Surabaya, my hometown died by Covid 19 virus !
WTH with that virus?!
Tried to take over the world?!
I'm so sick and hate to hear peoples keep dying by that ****ing virus.
I swear, Covid 19 Must DIE !!

@Anti-Matter Overreacting much?

After that we will get COVID - 20, 21, 22, 23 etc.

@MarioLover92 Yeah, speaking of ruthless mk8 online racing, Ive encountered that enough when there are no tournaments. I wish they made it easier to race without weapons. Races with no items, or only mushrooms, or only coins are so difficult to find ACTIVE races. You can't see if communities have actual people racing, and it's such a terrible slog opening and loading each community only to find nobody's home. I don't understand why they are locked behind the painful, fragmented, spotty community system.

@Zuljaras Not necessarily. COVID-19 will probably still be effecting the world come 2021, but there won’t be a brand new global pandemic every year. Also, there’s no real overreaction to a global pandemic. It’s a lot to take in.

@BabyYoshi12 agreed. Anti-Matter literally heard of people dying and was explaining why he was mad and then Zuljaras comes along and ruin it. He's always been negative so I just ignore him. It is so much to take in truly.

@BabyYoshi12 I know I can ignore, I’ve already ignored KKslider. He always has to have SOME beef with me.

@Anti-Matter I’m not sure what’s going on in Surabaya with this virus, but I can assure you the virus will eventually calm down. It likely will never die completely, but it will be much less common, like a flu.

I know that your a teacher, so I’m just curious, are they planning on returning to school this fall where you are?

@BabyYoshi12 It has been only one picture of a cat actually! Not many!

I don't want my reputation of a an extremely negative, vile and evil person to be affected!

Btw are you are Pokemon Fan by any chance? I have made a figure a while ago of Sandshrew and nobody wants it.

@BabyYoshi12
I got the news from TV and from WhatsApp group about 35 teachers on the other school died by Covid19 virus.
Due to that case, that school was being quarantined and this morning there was an official letter from government to every school at Surabaya to have Working From House Online teaching started tomorrow.
Tomorrow i will go to my school and have a meeting about that situation with all teachers and school principal.
Pardon of peoples in my hometown Surabaya with lack of awareness of this pandemic and more victims accumulated everyday.

@Link-Hero I miss physical buttons. Before I caved and got my first Smartphone about 7 years ago, I always bought phones with actual keyboards. Why did that have to stop? Just because iPhone did it? :/

I mean, I have grown used to them, I use them every day. But I don't like them and I am real glad they still making mechanical boards like this new one I am currently using.

@BabyYoshi12 So anyway you would want this?

Zuls not negative man. Is great mans. You not understandings the way of strong burly.

@BabyYoshi12 You can't see them? The links are working here.

I made this as practice and I wanted to send it to some Pokemon fan but no one wanted it here.

He does. I think.

@Zuljaras OK OK you win, I’m sorry you’re not negative! COVID-19 is just a very touching subject for me and I don’t like it when people make fun of it.

So I've been alternating between unpacking my stuff I brought back from Japan, and sorting through the stuff I left in storage here in the states, and I came across my old iPod Nano 4GB, I believe it's the 1st gen nano. I got it back at the end of jr. high school over 15 years ago. Just out of curiosity I plugged it in to see if it would even turn on, and to my very pleasant surprise, it actually works. Looks like the last time I used it was about 6-7 years ago. But it spent the last solid 5 years at least in storage just in a box, not even properly packed away.

And it not only still works, my old music is all still there. Of course, I don't even have that iTunes account anymore. Still, I am very impressed that it survived. I am gonna keep it as a novelty/collectible.

Tired of blazing white screens on my monitor, I found a firefox add-on called Dark Reader. Seems ok here on NIntendoLife. By clicking on it's icon, I can customize it's darkness by adjusting contrast & brightness. Does anyone by chance use a dark mode browser add-on that they reccomend?

@Heavyarms55 Does your Nano's battery life still seem decent?

@Heavyarms55 Wow that's cool. It's a pretty exciting feeling to find something missing that you've owned long ago. I used to have an iPod Touch back in my high school days.

Been awhile since I hopped into this thread, so how is it going chit-chatters? Quiet evening here so stopping by for a bit and just finished playing some Burnout Paradise.

This iPod talk reminds me, I still use a fourth generation nano. Battery life is still decent, just haven't used much over the years until recently.
