I was mostly saying back to back in jest and was more referencing the next "impossible achievement". Who knows, maybe some new exploit will be uncovered that broadens the viable builds for this particular one.

I absolutely adore how Hades is balanced across an impossibly broad skill range. With some practice, even more casual players can eek out a win and then you have these absolute top 0.0000001% players that can chase challenges like this. Very few titles have achieved anything remotely close. Kudos to the player here raising the bar and let's see if anyone can string two of these back to back.

Maybe I should revise my statement to "consumer routers an informed user would consider buying".

I really appreciate the direction these changes put c/games on. Looking forward to seeing this place grow and thrive.

It's awesome to see these projects are still alive and kicking but they feel like a relic of a past era nowadays. Much like how stock ROMs on Android have improved to the point that rooting isn't really beneficial in most cases anymore, the stock firmware on the majority of routers is perfectly serviceable. I'm sure there are still some corner cases where they are as transformative as ever though.

Venting into the garage is going to lead to a very bad time (mold, lint, ect). Honestly, it may be cheaper to just go with a heat pump based dryer. They are far more energy efficient, areeasier onyour clothes, and don't need a vent at all. Now it's not all sunshine and roses, they are more expensive than traditional models, take longer to dry, the collected water needs dumped out afterwards, and don't heat your clothes up (so no hot towels or wrinkle releasing). That said, I think it would be the best compromise for your situation.

That's an absolutely wild finding. I'm sure this loops back around to the (impossibly huge) impact of the gut microbiome.

Agreed 100%. I imagine they will have hardware and demos available early next year when it gets announced (possibly at the Super Nintendo World) which could be leading to confusion.

Sorry, must have had a typo, announced April 2011, released Nov 2012

Those threads were user driven. Honestly, the easiest way would be to reach out to TurboStrider and see if he had any interest in posting over here. He was always very cordial with the "old guard" (long time members that underwent a mass exodus over the last 6 months, myself included) on the mod team and has bristled a bit with the remaining team, at least at the time of my departure. It's a lot more work than it appears and that's why the mod team stayed far, far away from it (and the impossible to avoid optics of biases based on where various publications fell in order).

I think the best option right now would be to post a framework thread on launch day, have a pinned post if possible or just upvote the snot out of a placeholder and have users reply to said top post with reviews as they trickle in with a copy and paste format provided at the bottom of the framework thread. Sorry if my terminology and/or lack of knowledge on what tools we have available here comes off the wrong way, I just was deeply involved in r/games for several years and old habits die hard.

I seriously doubt Nintendo would get into a situation where they are less than a year away from a new console without even soft announcing it's coming in an investor meeting or anything. They announced Switch (as the upcoming NX) in April 2016 for a March 2017 launch. WiiU was announced April 2011, for a November~Dec 2012 launch. The Wii was hyped 2 years in a row in 2004 and 2005 before releasing in 2006, and the Gamecube was announced August 2000 before a Sept~Nov 2001 release. Nintendo may very well be launching new hardware early next year, but history points more to a Switch Pro unless they announce VERY soon and the release window is more late summer~fall 2024.

Gosh, I think you'd have to be in the REAL middle of nowhere to be even 100 miles from a population center. Maybe out west in either of the Dakotas or Wyoming or something, but I imagine even then it's quite rare and represents a fraction of a percentage point of the population.
