That's wishful thinking, I'm afraid. Nintendo owns the handheld market and now that they've made a handheld their only platform there's no way they're going back to traditional consoles, especially not after the original Switch sold a gazilion units with the same form-factor as the new one but with a hardware 10x weaker. The higher prices are a risky gamble but their profit margins have never been this high so they probaby don't even care if the Switch 2 doesn't sell nearly as much as its predecessor.

A lot of the internet has been lost to time already so I actually appreciate this place having this kind of permanence.

He thinks Americans should express gratitude to Musk? For doing what, exactly?

It's not like we stood a chance anyways. Just strap a gun to those Boston Dynamics dogs and we're all doomed.

It will be 10 minutes to announce the new console and 50 minutes to announce Silksong

Oh, I assumed that the rapture would work in a different way than regular death for some reason so maybe true believers could still go to heaven even if they're sinners. If it's all the same then yeah, I have no idea what their logic is either.

I fully expected this game to be dead so that announcement was a welcome surprise.

It makes sense if they think they're going to hell, but that would require having a level of self-awareness I don't believe anyone trying to actively cause the end of times can possess.

There should be a way to see the content from different communities with the same name but from different instances in the same page, like some sort of automatic multireddit. The content would probably be limited to instances federated with your home instance but even then it's something I would like to have.

I've heard the author feels unfulfilled by Spy X Family because it isn't a story he actually wanted to tell but instead one he thought would be popular (which is understandable given how quickly unpopular mangas can be cancelled). It's been very successful which is great for them but it also has to sting a little knowing how some of his peers have reached similar success with very weird and personal stories like Chainsaw Man and Dandadan.
