I know the fucks I give disappear about that quickly.

That looks like it! Thanks!! I honestly don’t remember enough of the one I saw to be sure if that was the same project, but it is definitely the same concept and looks like the creator put a lot of work into it to make it perfect.

I asked because years ago, I saw a ROM for NES that took the original Japanese version and retranslated everything to English, fixing a lot of broken clues and storylines. I haven’t been able to find it again.

All Americans understand that. It doesn’t change the idiomatic implication of the word choice. That’s why it’s funny. Nobody is actually confused.

I’m sure it’s just an idiomatic translation issue, but saying it was “on sale,” to Americans, makes it sound like it was being advertised as a discount.

Are all the bugs and mistranslations there?

Yes, and they’re wrinkled as fuck.

Everyone knew a shady guy who promised to mod your PlayStation to play burned games, but few wanted to risk turning their console into a brick.

Are we expecting these customers to knowthe difference? I’m over here formulating a business plan, so let me know please.

But how would they know the difference?

I mean, I get nosebleeds some times. Am I throwing away profits?

So… we’re doomed?

One thing I like about Lemmy is there aren’t as many dipshits to block. This one is responsible for a lot of mindless propaganda in my feed, and now it’s gone.

No shit.

You’re right, but the reason that hasn’t caught on is that talking to your “smart” house is stupid. You can’t possibly program every possible command or situation, and telling Alexa to dim the lights in your kitchen to 40% is slower than using a dimmer switch. Actual smart homes are automated to the point where you don’t need to talk to your room.

Alexa was never supposed to make money by itself. It was supposed to do two things, collect information and lower the barrier to buying things.

They must have either collected enough data to lower the value of collecting any more, or they have realized that people got over the novelty of asking Alexa to order more dog food.

My guess is the latter, because buying anything from Amazon now requires 15 minutes of research to make sure it’s actually what you want and not at some ridiculous marked up price. I wouldn’t trust Alexa to pick the best result on the first try.

It was not a simple process. I’ve been trying for years to migrate, and gave up because it wasn’t worth the hassle. I have been playing Minecraft since the alpha, and I have bought the game several times over.

To know that my account is now simply gone means that I’m just that much less likely to return. If I have to rebuild, I’ll invest my time in a game that won’t be taken away from me.

I paid for Minecraft more times than any other game. If there’s a free way to play it, I do feel entitled to that.

I see Minetest is available for android. Can you run Mineclonia on a phone?

Right? I already don’t use youtube as much as possible. Piped helps, but if that stops working, I just won’t watch movies on youtube.

I understand why people are upset anytime a company fucks their customers for money, but the solution is always to walk away.
