Nintendo famously changed their mind when Mortal Kombat 1 sold better on Genesis/Mega Drive than Super Nintendo.

Doesn’t change the fact that Nintendo only owned a minority share and that this specific game was not published by Nintendo. They had access to the development tools already, so it was no special treatment for Conker.

Even back then this kind of advertisement (and game) was an anomaly coming from Nintendo.

Yeah. One reason being that this wasn’t a Nintendo game. It was a Rare/THQ game. Nintendo didn’t publish this.

Hard pass.

It was a pretty boring keynote anyway.

Didn’t a recent lemmy update start stripping those out automatically?

Maybe. My home server is still on 0.19.3 because reasons: https://lemmy.world/post/23471887

Personally, I think that the new features outweigh the regressions but I’m not going to jump instances all the time.

you were still incorrect in saying Australia is doing nothing.

Except I did not say that. I asked what’s going on and that things aren’t that rosy. You must me have confused with someone else.

Also: By using the plain YouTube link (without “?si=” etc. parameters), you can see crossposts and duplicates.

The sun doesn’t shine at night.

Wind blows at night at the shoreline.

Have a look when it is daytime there and you’ll see upwards of 60% of their electricity is solar.

Well, over 12 months it’s not that rosy, except for Tasmania:

Removed by mod

Please stop spewing climate denial propaganda.

The only one spewing propaganda is you. The world needs “net negative” to remove the CO2 from the atmosphere that was already blasted into it since the industrial revolution, not “net zero”/“carbon neutral”.

Get a clue.

carbon neutral

That’s a propaganda term by people who promote bullshit like e-fuels because “the only CO2 emissions are what was already out of the air, so bottom line it’s neutral”.

WTF is Australia doing? Aren’t they aware they have plenty of sunshine and an insanely long shoreline?

Wasn’t Germany that weird one where ‘gas’ was labeled as ‘renewable’?

Biogas from decomposition is renewable. That definition is accepted internationally.

Doesn’t mean it’s ecological. There’s a difference.

From the point of view from BSD.cafe I assume Linuxing weather is bad, right?

The Sonic Racing games are the best counterpart to Mario Kart available on PC. Sonic Racing Transformed is the best of the 3 games (and bundles the very first game) but sometimes gets confused when switching up controllers, so you must delete the config file, so maybe because of that not the best introduction to PC. Team Sonic Racing is a bit less good but that input bug is gone.

How have Nintendo’s lawyers not shut this down yet?

They’re never the quickest and usually only act if they learn of something from the media. That said, by asking for money via Patreon, the developer is also asking to get sued.

How come these people never learn?

SEPA money transfers directly onto the bank account.

Otters to crabs: “Yoink!”

“Unpolitical” Russians?

I actually wish there were more simplistic Warcraft 1/2 or C&C type games to come out

So do I. There are a few but these are indie projects and in turn their scope is smaller than even those 1990s games. I guess the closest thing is Five Nations which is currently on sale on Steam for under 10 Euro. It’s like a slice of Starcraft 1 where they have taken only the missions with just flying units. At that price point I cannot complain but I’d also like a full price scifi RTS. Not a fan of AoE4 simply because of its “realistic” backdrop. I’m rooting for Tempest Rising after Stormgate was a severe let down.
