SNES was arguably better than Genesis system

The SNES and Genesis were comparable. You could argue one or the other, but it was a tighter race than the Playstation 3 curb-stomping the Wii.

N64 has much more raw power than my favorite system the PS1

Playstation had CD-ROM, and that’s all that needs to be said about that battle.

GameCube was stronger than PS2 and Dreamcast

Comparing the GameCube with the PS2, it had less VRAM, less RAM, a faster CPU, roughly equiv video processor. I would say they were about equal, and that’s with GameCube coming out two years later.

The PS2 was also the strongest console to ever fight in any sort of console war, with its ridiculously large library of games. PS2 punished Sega so hard they permanent removed themselves out of the race, and Nintendo had to completely change strategies to fill a different niche and audience, which worked with the Wii. However, that came with the dumbing down of hardware that everybody is talking about. They have been pushing shitty outdated hardware ever since.

PCs literally had “mouse mode” gaming since the 80s. The Amiga/ATARI ST already had them, too.

Consoles have been behind the times for decades.

For people who pirate HBO service products, no changes, your lifetime subscription to piracy is still valid.

Damn right it is.

Louis Rossmann shouts this from the YouTube rooftops all the time. Why not Randall?

The good news is that you aren’t missing much because Vox videos and articles are a mile wide, and an inch deep.

And so we find ourselves in the absurd position where Democratic leadership, in the form of Jeffries and Schumer, treats an ongoing coup like an inconvenient scheduling conflict. Their response to democracy’s crisis amounts to little more than checking Robert’s Rules of Order to see if authoritarianism requires a two-thirds majority.

Sick burn. And a bit depressing.

This feels like a generational gap, but I’m not sure if progressives have enough power to fight it. And in our current age, the only ones with the appetite to fight with more violent means are on the side of the authoritarians.
