I'd really hate to see Canada fall to that.

SOINI 2018! YKSI MIELI YKSI KIELI! ULKOMALAISET POIS! ISO-SUOMI UUDESTAAAAAAAAAAAN!

Seriously though, hopefully not Finland. It seems to apply all over the world, sadly enough.

I now own a Mini NES.
Everything is ever so slightly better.

Still utter shit! But slightly better. On the personal level.

That reminds me, I need to look at getting an SNES emulator on my 3DS.

[TheBytemaster]

IIRC, the mini NES is actually more powerful than the Wii.

I'm impressed that exists, honestly.

Now to get a SNES emulator running in a 3DS emulator running on my emulated Android phone which uses a JVM which...

Okay, in all seriousness, I do rather enjoy having a (non-3)DS emulator on my phone.

So I heard! Don't know if it's actually more powerful than the Wii, but there's some serious hardware in there.
Enough to run, say... SNES games. At the least. I believe it could also handle N64 games, but I don't fully remember if that's what I read or something I'm making up.

I do usually try to avoid getting TOO hyped for big AAA games, but does anyone else think this looks amazing? (Skip to 2:40 for gameplay)

 

I can only imagine how much better it'd look on my PC

Please no crappy PC port (づ￣ ³￣)づ

[Melfice]

I'm... not hyped at all, to be honest. I've seen it, and... no. Just no.

Same response with Dr. Strange. Been told it's a pretty dang good film, but... I'll catch it when it's been out on DVD for a while, probably.

I like the idea, I'm just not big on Monster Hunter style games.

I've never tried one, TBH. Maybe I just like the idea of them then? *shrugs*

Well at any rate, the Mini NES can run Linux. (I mean, it's just an ARM chip, so not really surprising, but still.)

Me and another person here have decided to throw money at AMD stock.

It's um...

https://www.google.com/finance?q=NASDAQ:AMD

Well it's at a five-year high right now, so you tell me.

If it spikes come Zen in the spring, I'd be tempted to blow the earnings on a Vive, any reasons why I shouldn't? Is there another version in the works or something? Or is the content drought really as bad as I've heard?

EDIT: Are there three spammers active right now, or have they figured out that they posts will stay up marginally longer if they use more accounts?

I don't have any interest whatsoever in playing their game, but Cards Against Humanity are certainly doing their part to make the world a weirder place. You really can crowdfund anything!

Part of me wonders if this is actually real. I mean, it's...

~$100,000$ to run a backhoe for 48h? Is that really what it costs?

Or die out quickly. It's a lot like Schrodinger's Cat.

Threadzilla 2; electric boogaloo.

How're you all doing snow-wise?

I'm a little disappointed here, but at least there's SOME snow on the ground most days.

Dandruff from clouds.

They must be using some of that special shampoo lately, last year was horrible too.

[Valkon]

Snow doesn't exist in the area I live in. We get one five minute hailstorm per year at best.

[Melfice]

We don't do snow here anymore. Haven't done for some years now.
At best we get some slush.

No, seriously. The moment it touches pavement, it immediately dissolves into slush.
Fuck everybody who says global warming isn't real.

It takes a real freak winter to produce any proper snow.

[Munaus]

plenty of snow and ice here. I even slipped with my car to the ditch a few days ago.

Compared with the last two years, this is the most snow I've ever had this close to christmas

 

Edit. of course Mother Nature will balance it all out. Forecast shows we will get plus degrees and rain all three days before christmas.

I wont care, I'm planning on making some wonderful food with my family. That and beer and scrolling through the Steam holiday sales will keep me indoors
