Tungsten doesnt weave sadly even when thinner, it also makes horrid chainmail, you are better off making thin plates and just sewing it into fabric on both sides

But has anyone got mhyrr?

Some of the vintage items I do have include:

  • a 1950's Eskimo model 081002 desk fan (and it works!)
  • a 1956 Exa "original" film camera (still images, not video)
  • several very old Fisher Price toys, some of them even made of wood.
  • a genuine telephone line operator's headset
  • A battered but genuine can of "New Coke"
  • A very early Singer sewing machine (actually owned by my mom)
  • four D-cell Ray-O-Vac batteries from the 1970's
  • a keyboard belonging to an early 1990's apple computer
  • and more!

Since the court decision on the sudden tariffs companies basically have to sue to get refund and over 2000 of them are doing so including nintendo.

#

So anyone hoping for that $2k tariff rebate can forget it since it’s gotta go back to the corpos

#

But there’s a lot of issues that I’m probably not up to speed on

#

Just everyone is reporting like Nintendo is the only one involved and it’s really skewing the perception of the situation

solid sun
#

ah so they don't sue because they want the tariffs gone, they sue to get money back.

peak folio

Yup

https://www.gamefile.news/p/savvy-nintendo-take-two-gdc

👀 Nintendo’s lawsuit against the U.S. government over the Trump administration’s tariffs has been automatically stayed, or paused, according to an update to the case issued on Tuesday.

  • Nintendo is one of hundreds of companies that sued the U.S. in the Court of International Trade. Last December, a judge on the CIT ordered that all such cases would be automatically stayed pending the results of a tariff case that had made it to the U.S. Supreme Court. The Supreme Court then ruled in February that the tariffs were illegal.

  • Two days before Nintendo’s suit was filed, a judge in the trade court ruled that companies impacted by tariffs should receive refunds. Those refunds could be issued starting in April, but many companies have yet to say if they’ll pass the money on to consumers, Popular Info notes. (A Nintendo rep did not directly say whether the company planned to pass refunds along to its customers, when asked about it by Game File last week.)

Aloha Airlines Flight 243

Aloha Airlines Flight 243 was a scheduled domestic passenger flight flown by Aloha Airlines between Hilo and Honolulu in Hawaii. On April 28, 1988, the Boeing 737-297 airplane serving the flight suffered extensive damage after an explosive decompression in flight, caused by part of the fuselage breaking due to poor maintenance and metal fatigue....

Not an Apples to Apples comparison at all. But I hope that Pokopia replaces Minecraft for what kids and teens play. I'm tired of Minecraft's reign.

Minecraft is available everywhere

#

Pokopia is locked to an expensive console and is an expensive game

#

Minecraft is cheap, can run on your $120 phone and has modding.

#

Minecraft and Pokopia are not comparable to eachother, chill, just because a game is voxel-based does not mean it's a Minecraft clone

#

Pokopia is more similar to Animal Crossing than it is to Minecraft at the very least, chill

I can say Kirby air ride is better than Minecraft, and that's as valid as saying call of duty is worse than battlefield

dusk quartz
#

Maybe I misinterpreted the argument, chill

teal iron
#

They want Minecraft to be less played than pokopia

#

Which is almost as strange as Kirby air ride > Minecraft
Like who asked

#

But doesn't require the games to be identical

#

It's not that I'm wrong, chill, but I kinda missed the memo

teal iron
#

No you're not

#

It won’t be, pokopia doesn’t allow any modding or alterations that Nintendo doesn’t agree with

Hate it all you want, but Minecraft is allowed to be whatever you want it to be, hell I remember someone recreating actual portal there

You could alternatively make your own game, chillruru /s

#

Although I think "apples to oranges" gets thrown around way too casually and I am taking it out on you

#

Again, chill, I didn't realize what the argument actually was about

#

You can't even compare games anymore without some smarty-pants coming in like 🤓 "ApPlEs tO oRaNgeS"

#

Like, you know those are both fruit and I can absolutely say I like one fruit over the other
You can't tell me it's not possible

#

To be honest, chill, I don't know what game could possibly kick Minecraft off its throne

teal iron
dusk quartz
#

Yet I see people talk about Minecraft more than Fortnite, chill

#

You kinda have a point though, chill, games that are trying to appeal to every audience possible would probably be able to succeed Minecraft

#

Which puts Roblox onto the competition oddly enough, chill, UGC games have an edge in this regard because it doesn't matter if you dislike a particular genre, there's going to be something for the genre you do like.

Roblox appeals to the worse demographics such as island goers

teal iron
#

They're not a game, they're a platform
They don't have games, they have experiences

#

And I hate to break it to ya but the experience of breathing currently has around 8 billion users so if we broaden to that definition then Roblox still loses

dusk quartz
#

That's fair, chill

humble parrot
#

Do you play ranked breathing

Of course not, it's ranked

#

Ranked is serious play

No chill, full sweat
