While Napster did get decked hard a long while ago, it's still a well known cultural icon, so some company was inevitably going to buy the rights to its branding/trademarks after it ate dirt to attract attention to whatever product they decide to slap it on.

The same thing kinda happened to Atari. That company got burned to a crisp by Nintendo and Sega after the 2600, but some nobodies bought it and things keep having the Atari logo even today because it was a well known brand. It sucked ass and failed... but we remember it.

Doesn't sonic 4 suck 10 tons of bloated baked ass

It's pretty obvious by now that knowing someone is doing wrong is only half the battle. Or more like 10% of it. In the US there's ridiculous healthcare costs, data brokering, tax cuts for the rich - like 90% of Americans know about these things, and yet nothing is done.

Right Wing politics are based around hierarchy, the idea of being above other people. Rich > poor, American > immigrant, me > you. In order for right wing propaganda to work on idiots like this, they need to make it seem like the people who aren't falling for it are below them in some way. This narrative that intellectuals are either brainwashed or knowingly brainwashing other people compensates for the noticeable difference in smarts and makes that imagined reality that much more tempting. They're not "uneducated", they just naturally knew better than to get brainwashed because of their massively superior true American brain! Fascism needs to be flattering in order to be convincing because it has nothing else except fear to offer.

Some people still think it's only advertising and that the advertisements don't work. That's even scarier.

The difference between all the illegal shit that the administration has been doing and this is that the president kind of feasibly had power to order immediate action, so people obeyed, BUT he was also supposed obey the judiciary when it said he couldn't do that, and he didn't do that. They move fast so that when people call them on it, it's already done and they can say they can't do anything about it. NOT doing something is a lot easier to get away with than doing it. Pardoning a state crime would be a case where the action would be 100% clear to be illegal from the get-go, so doing it fast and then pretending to be suddenly helpless wouldn't work. He would actually need the entire system in that state to obey him over the law when they have no defense for doing so and no assurance that they'll be pardoned or rewarded at all. It might happen, but it's also not very feasible yet.

We're doing what we can, and that's a whole lot more valuable than sitting around and talking about what we should do when we can't at the moment.

Please, tell us your plan to dismantle capitalism that requires us to blindly consume Harry Potter media.

Just because there's an underlying issue doesn't mean that it's pragmatic to hyperfocus on it and ignore the more immediate issues. If I have cancer, I'm not gonna stop eating fruit because I really need to focus on fighting the cancer and my other health-conscious activities need to be put on hold. That's not how responding to problems works.

That's not code, that's a picture of a sheep! This code is most dark!

Fuck yeah, build the trans flag. This is a vote btw

And yet, they still think they're too good to put track pads on it.

I don't think these companies are aware that what made the deck popular was it knew what it was and that it had a lot to prove, and so it featured a very focused design that differentiated it from PCs as a worthwhile form factor, but also provided methods for adding compatibility to just about any game, and thus allowed it to compensate for being in a form factor that is just sometimes inherently inconvenient for PC gaming. It wasn't just a gaming pc with an Xbox controller taped to it, which this is.
