So is Yuzu, which nearly flawlessly emulates the switch and whose community had the new Zelda game running before the game even launched. I wonder if Nintendo cares enough to do something differently with future consoles - nobody is able t

What would be the worst thing that happened to society if we just manufactured adderall and sold it OTC? Maybe some elevated cardiovascular problems across society as a whole? Maybe some psychosis in serious chronic abusers? Why don't

Great job on the half! As somebody who’s recently started running marathons. you’re 100% correct to enjoy half marathons and lower distances until you “have to” run something longer. The marathon is the first common race distance where it j

Non-sequitur for this thread, but I can’t reply to old posts on HN and I don’t see any DM functionality. I saw your post on an affirmative action thread about class vs race on an economist article from a few months ago, and I was wondering

Fun relevant story - back in high school we figured out that my friend’s Chevy Suburban key would unlock and start my other friend’s Saturn S-Series (but not vice versa). Had a lot of fun with that one. Not sure the owner of the Saturn woul
