Glad to see staff is so considerate to newer gamers in advance of the OoT remake. Not everyone has played through the game before, it's a lot harder to spoil the later temples when bluesky is blocking adult Links.

Every business should be an employee owned co-op problem solved

Most billionaire wealth isn't in yachts or jewelry β€” that's just a few percent of it. Most is productive business capital: companies that employ people, build things, and fund research. Tax that wealth and you're taxing the businesses that employ us all. Cato's Adam Michel explains.

We had a good thing, you son of a bitch! We had an emulator. We had ISOs. We had PSSPP on PC + Phone and it all ran like clockwork. You could’ve shut your mouth, and gotten as much social clout as you ever needed. It was perfect. But no, you just had to blow it up. You and your Claude and your Slop!

The Switch version of Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door includes its own fictional language that is a cipher for English. Amusingly, the misspelled "Game Cuve" graffiti from the original version is translated into the new language... but still reads "Game Cuve" when deciphered.

"oh man these decompilations of Ocarina of Time, Monster Hunter 3 and Rave Racer look great I wonder who the developers are"
