@JoeMerrick So since these versions of FR/LG have local trading, it should be possible to trade with the actual GameCube copies of XD/Colosseum, no? Assuming all conditions for both games are unlocked?

In case people didn't see, the Pokémon XD trailer confirmed that Pokémon cannot be transferred in and out of the game from other titles. This means no HOME support and no connectivity with FRLG. It makes sense somewhat, for the reasons I mentioned for FRLG.

Yes - you do use an ID to vote in Congress.. With: * A free ID paid for by the government. * That they make sure you have received. * In a voter roll you are automatically on and not purged from when eligible. * With processes to manage your vote if you forget /lose your ID. If you want mandatory voter ID, then include those kinds of provisions. Otherwise you're just trying to make voter suppression easier.

For reference, this is how we vote in the US House: 1) Insert photo ID 2) Press button

Sure, as long as it is: -Free to every American -Automatic non-purgeable enrolment -Easy to auto renew -Any other ID can be used in its place. And -If you vote and don’t have it or it expired, your ballot is provisional with a cure period to show a new ID Most Dems would be fine with that. The thing we don’t want is another voter registration role style system that is abused to prevent people from voting.

@DSEDunn You can get a doorbell that isn't a camera connected to the internet. You could even get a fully acoustic doorbell by putting a bell at your door.

Just the other day a VERY nasty aggressive delivery person almost bashed my door in. After 3 such bashings, (all the windows rattling) I finally donned a mask & threw open the door, shouting ‘What do you WANT!?’ He viciously snarled, ‘Why don’t you have a doorbell?’ Nothing needed a signature. There is a big box marked ‘Deliveries’. My presence was not required. THIS⤵️ is why I don’t have a doorbell. Among other very good reasons.

🚨 AMAZON JUST TURNED YOUR DOORBELL INTO A POLICE SURVEILLANCE WEAPON Amazon-owned Ring just quietly partnered with Flock - a license plate tracking system already used by police and ICE - meaning footage from your front door can now feed into nationwide surveillance networks. Flock has already been used to track immigrant communities and prosecute women over abortion access. Now your Ring camera is part of the pipeline. No warrant. No vote. No warning. You didn’t install a doorbell. You installed government spyware. Did anyone actually agree to this?

FE MS Paint Memes for the Strategically Challenged
To all the people starting Path of Radiance for the first time, let me give you a tip: About a third of the way into the game, you'll get an item called the knight ward. Its description says it increases defenses, and it does, but it also increases speed growths by 30%.

It was 17, not 72 They reduced the number of vaccines by 6. The ones that they are removing are for rotavirus, hepatitis A and B, meningitis and seasonal flu. This is transparently stupid and you can thank RFK Jr., MAGA, and overly neurotic mothers with Dunning-Kruger.

BREAKING: President Trump announces a new childhood vaccination schedule. Trump says American children are no longer required to receive "72 jabs," reducing recommendations to just 11 vaccines.

@perseverare1776 They need to arrest and charge every single adult with a crime, you are not allowed to drug kids, every single drug has side effects, even if it’s just oils. Some kids can be allergic to those oils and this shouldn’t be allowed.

@Section_21 Archaeological evidence suggests they actually switched back to stone tools and kept using the copper for decorations and jewelry because it didn't have the arsenic or tin impurities that made soft copper into harder bronze in other regions

Is it controversial to say if you haven’t liked a JRPG since 2001 you’re probably not a JRPG fan? To say there’s not been a good one since FFX is insane as a (at risk of sounding elitist) actual JRPG fan.
Sebbywebz@Sebbywebz

The forced hate for Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 comes from 2 lies that are being pushed about its fandom: Lie #1: People only like E33 because it's their first JRPG Truth: Many people who love E33 are lifelong JRPG fans who have felt disappointed in the genre for decades. For me, nothing has hit like this game since OG FF7 (1997) and maybe FFX (2001). For many people, this is the first time in ages they've felt the rush of a New Game hitting with that Old Game Magic E33 also destroyed the lie that Turn-Based Combat would not look good in realistic graphics (a baseless excuse made for Final Fantasy for years). For long-time FF fans who've been bullied & gaslit about this issue, E33 is extremely vindicating Lie #2: People who love E33 have never heard of Bravely Default, Dragon Quest, Octopath Traveller, Persona etc Truth: Pixel / Anime / Low-Poly 3D games do not have the same mainstream appeal as realistic 3D. I'm not saying those games are bad, I'm saying they're niche. Some are huge within that niche, and that's great. But every Anime Fan (myself included) knows the pain of trying to get someone to try their favorite thing - but they won't because they "just don't like the style" Not only that, many modern JRPGs suffer from dialogue bloat, sluggish pacing, and an overall childish tone. You might be ok with it, but those are dealbreakers for many people. There's a saying: "We grew up, but the games didn't." Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 is the best of the Old mixed with the best of the New, with none of the BS of either. That is why it is so successful and respected amongst its fandom. It's mainstream success is a victory for the JRPG scene. It's made average gamers curious to see what else the genre has to offer. And there's a lot of gold to be found. #ClairObscurExpedition33 #Expedition33 #ClairObscur
