The mindset of the whole Israeli government is pretty astounding. It's like they feel entitled to do what they're doing, and anyone who vaguely hints at "maybe genocide isn't your strongest play?" is vilified. Israel is always the victim, no matter who or what is being done. It has strong "the left stole the election" vibes

I don't like this timeline. How do I get back to the one where the monopoly man had a monocle?

Didn't that come from 4chan? The pooper of the internet? No wonder it was filled with sharpies

If they are capable of giving consent, they are capable of activating the system themselves.
You're thinking of a big red push button, but a button can be a pad that you bite down on, or a eye twitch activated electrode, or any number of things.
The important thing is they initiate the process themselves, so that they have the option to withdraw consent as easily as they gave it.
True consent is not immutable.

It's assisted in the sense that a doctor can help them insert an IV, load up the correct drugs, make sure they understand the procedure, and monitor to ensure it goes smoothly, but the patient themselves need to press the button that releases the drugs (or nitrogen in the sarco pods case)

I think they start on 0 here though. Reddit automatically upvotes your own posts, but not here

They're faster than the stovetop by a lot over here, so if you're boiling a lot of water multiple times a day (for tea, coffee, ramen, and whatever else) they're super convenient.
If you're not making many hot drinks (or have better machines for that) I'm not sure how much use they are.
As for cooking, I know for myself, when I make something like rice, I boil the water in kettle first, and it definitely saves me a couple minutes. A few minutes doesn't sound like much, but it all adds up. Another commenter says that they're actually not that much slower over there, so it might be worth timing one compared to stove top?

Electric kettles (or hot water jugs depending on where you are) are just not a thing there. Apparently it has something to do with your 110v AC system. They don't boil as fast, and so never really took off. Just a little factoid that blew my mind, considering how commonplace they are everywhere else.

Because Wallpaper Engine lets you do a hell of a lot more than just static images. It's exactly what it says on the tin. A software engine that you can set as a wallpaper. Think video wallpapers, touch effects, audio responsiveness, or straight up fully rendered 3D environments *

I have no idea how much of this actually works on Android. I've only used it on PC

Make good, free games. I want to be financially stable enough that I can just make cool stuff and give it away, and not worry about trying to monetize it, or protect it from pirates. I just want to create for the sake of creating. I've got no interest in starting a business/company/indie studio/whatever the fuck else it is people think I should be doing. Added bonus, if anybody ever takes issue with something I've made, I can happily tell them where to stick it. It's free, you have no right to complain

It's just a rom hack, so I don't see why not?

For everyone hating on the inconsistency of the art, I'm willing to bet it was a deliberate choice.
The inconsistency adds to the charm, and means that anyone who was a fan of it can submit art, regardless of skill level.
I've never seen it applied to a game before but it's more obvious when compared to something like Shrek Retold

Thanks for the reminder!
So I'm waaay out of touch with the whole emulation scene. I'm just coming back to it after not touching it since the late 2000's I've been messing around with Dolphin, Yuzu, RCSP3 mainly, but seen screenshots of a few others. Relevant information: I'm a Windows user, and I'm using the stand alone emulators. I've noticed that they all have the same, or very similar user interfaces. I'm all for standardization, but I'm curious if this is coincidence, or is there a specific front-end system that they're all using?
