vinesauce, link's awakening remaster 

I can't wait for Vinny's story tomorrow about how he had to five miles uphill in snow both ways without shoes to get Link's Awakening a day early and play it on stream.

Hot take: Folding screens aren't going to go anywhere, and will at most be remembered as a very pricey footnote in tech history.

Real quick show of hands (boosts appreciated):

Who here on Mastodon is

(1) trans, nb, or otherwise LGBTQIA;

(2) in tech, or tech-adjacent; and

(3) has been passed over, retaliated against, or fired because of it?

Say what you will about Switch Online, it's nice to be able to play NES and SNES games again without having to buy games for the Virtual Console, even if it is a curated collection.

I'm surprised there's not any aftermarket docks available for the Switch. Like, I'd totally buy a Switch dock that's shaped like an SNES and has output coming out the back, and you dock the Switch with it in the spot where the cartridge would usually go. That'd be really cool.

So I played River City Ransom because it's available for free with Switch Online. That game is much better than I remember it being.

BREAKING: An episode of the Podquisition has been recorded with Stuart Ashen as a guest host.

Friendly Reminder that Doom's pronouns are Doom/Doom. Doom has no possessive pronoun because if someone is possessed by a demon, Doom will Rip and Tear Until it is Done.
Doom will also accept being addressed Doomguy, Doom Marine, and Doomslayer.
Doom has no dead name because no part of Doom will die until Doom kills all the demons.

Is River City Girls worth a buy on Switch? I'm seeing good reviews of it and it's been decades since I've really played a beat em up.

me ranting about climate change activists, probably voicing bad opinions, please correct me 

I just don't know about all these teen climate change activists. These movements like Extinction Rebellion don't seem like they have an actual plan beyond telling people to pollute less. And despite climate change overwhelmingly harming the proletariat more than anybody else, these movements seem awfully... bourgeoisie-y.
