Topic: The Chit-Chat Thread

thanks to the new Chromebook update whenever I search for a gif on Discord (website) now, it tries to change my NL password.

@EaglyBird ok off topic is that a homegrown gif? It’s so freaking clean!

Just wanted to let you guys know the CRKD Nitro Deck is incredible. The sticks feel like butter, all of the buttons have just the right amount of give, and the dpad is one of the best I've used on a third-party controller. I got the grey, $60 one, and it is a steal. Don't sleep on these. I'm ordering another one asap.

@EaglyBird it’s so clean!!

@BobTheBunkerGuy If anyone took that comment the wrong way there looking into it too much lol.

@BobTheBunkerGuy Yeah I sadly have to agree lol.

I just realized that Mario Bros Wonder is basically Touch Fuzzy, Get Dizzy, the game. Whoa.

Remember when the whole Nintendo community thought Mario Sunshine 2 was real because of 1 image Nintendo posted for the summer that where mario had 2 seeds on his face?

Yes, but the real talking point should have been about how weird it was to see Mario’s feet.

Okay, knowing the internet, that was probably discussed in depth.

@DiamondCore People sure do come up with the weirdest theories and speculation, don't they?

@blindsquarel I absolutely guarantee there was some forum on the internet absolutely obsessing over seeing mario’s feet, there has got to be atleast one somewhere

@HenryKibble yeah, the things people come up with are WILD.

@DiamondCore Like the people who think the clouds formed by the Halberd in one cutscene of “Subspace Emissary” were foreshadowing unlockable characters, including Miss Piggy. (Seriously, what’s with the demand for playable versions of characters that weren’t game characters originally?) Or the fact that on “Battlefield” in Ultimate, people claimed that Rayman was trapped in that weird ice on the stage and somehow thawing it will free him and make him playable.

@HenryKibble waitwaitwait, people though MISS PIGGY from muppets OF ALL CHARACTERS would be in smash brawl? bro I can’t 😭

@BobTheBunkerGuy don't worry jsut 9 days left

What a hot day for gaming. Can't tell which one is more interesting:

• rusnia case in the Cyberpunk patch (they should never apologize for something like that)
• Sony ordering destruction of figures made by Gaming Heads

It's gonna be exciting, like watching a train derailing

@Princess_Lilly What’s this about the Cyberpunk patch?

Side note: because I’ve now moved away from my darling Sony machine I can’t even enjoy the 2.0 update 😓

@TheJGG apparently some translator put anti nazi quotes in the latest Cyberpunk patch which inclueds Ukrainian language, namely instead of "a**holes" characters say "rusnia" which is a derogatory term used on nazi russians due to the invasion. Also, there are some allegories to the events like the Snake Island - instead of saying "gtfo Dodge city" one character says "gtfo in the same direction as the ship", etc.

Unfortunately, CDPR started apologizing and saying that it doesn't represent their views.

@Princess_Lilly Hmm, that sounds like a slippery slope, especially because CDPR is a public company that has also received funding from the Polish government. When you’ve had that kind of aid you’re already liable for staying politically neutral.

Out of curiosity, to you why’s it bad that they apologised in this case?

@Princess_Lilly Well, obviously, Ima need a house for the family I'll have in 10 years

@TheJGG well, from my understanding, Poland has always been an extremely anti - nazi country, be it Germany or Russia. Political neutrality is one thing, but criticising current political events should always be allowed due to freedom of expression. I know that this is not the official CDPR's stance, but once the milk got spilled, they should have just patch it without mentioning it to the public. That way they would have stayed neutral.

@EllaTheQueen6 you're already planning a family? I haven't even planned dinner yet. But house is a great investment. Not only is it your HQ, your place to stay, the place that pretty much defines your commute times etc., it's also one of the investments that will never go under. It won't lose value, nobody will steal it, there will always be demand for housing.

So yeah, I think a house is great not because of the family, but because it's just a powerful asset in life. So buy a nice one. The one with mountain range view, like in Switzerland Alps. The one with 2 floors, with a cozy kitchen and a nice garden.

@Princess_Lilly A ncie house would be nice. With a big kitchen and a basement (I've never had a basement so that's a luxury to me)
Also, even without a family, a house would be great.
