Doctor visits. :( 2 for me, 1 for my wife, 1 for our 3 month old kitten.

That’s a hardware problem, not software, and fixable. PS3 had a similar issue:

Ooh, that’s a tough call… I really can’t say I have a single favorite, best I can do is say a favorite per generation:

1. Pong - the one that started it all. Also taught everyone about screen burn in.

2. Atari 2600 - Hands down, one of the all time greats.

3. NES - Hard to beat Super Mario 3, but my favorite game of this generation was Phantasy Star on the Sega Master System.

4. Sega Genesis - Sorry, the SNES never grabbed me, although Super Star Wars was a great game. Best home version of Street Fighter II was on the Turbo Grafx/Duo of all things.

• I’m going to add an “unofficial” generation here. You will never see this on any official list. Call it 4.5. There was a weird period of time where everyone and their cousin was doing a CD based machine. Sega CD, Turbo CD, Pioneer LaserActive, a whole bunch of crappy “set top boxes” like the Phillips CDi and Tandy Viz. The best of the bunch, with the most games and the best games was the Sega CD.

5. Playstation - Another all time great.

6. As much as I love the Dreamcast, it was murdered pre-maturely by Sega. Xbox and Halo just demolished everything else. I don’t know that we ever got an official “Halo Killer” until it suicided with Halo Infinite.

7. Xbox 360 - Sony handicapped itself with the overly complex cell processor. Games just weren’t as good as the 360.

8. PS4 - In this case, Microsoft handicapped itself by fundamentally misunderstanding why people buy consoles. It’s to play games, not “tv, tv, tv, tv, tv, sports, tv, tv, tv.”

• Another unofficial generation, call it 8.5, where you had the PS4 Pro, Xbox One S and Xbox One X - The One X was the clear winner with more power, 4K enhancements and a 4K Blu Ray player.

9. Playstation 5 - Microsoft is losing the plot with Gamepass, to the detriment of the entire industry.

Same, I hadn’t really left the house since 2018. Once a week for groceries and prescriptions and that was it.

Jesus, just being able to go to a movie theater was huge.

My sister made stickers for the sides so now it says “Majestic AF”

I dunno, it seems like there’s a bunch to me… it’s not my thing personally, props to you that it is, but I had to block a bunch out of my “All” feed.

A lot of it is gay FURRY porn which is ENTIRELY it’s own deal though. That may or may not be your thing. When I first joined Lemmy I was like “Wow, that’s a lot of Yiff…”

Then there are the homoerotic communities that aren’t necessarily capital “P” Porn like “maleform”.

It works great! 17 mile range, automatically folds and unfolds. Has a remote control.

Electric wheelchair. After my 2nd heart attack, it became harder and harder to do things in the world. Grocery stores were impossible unless they had scooters of their own, which were usually in use or out of service.

Now I just bring my own.

Keep my head down and power through the next 4 years same as last time.

I haven’t seen an Englishman take that harsh a blow since Hugh Grant!

She lived long enough to have done a DVD commentary on her own 2002 life story:

What a missed opportunity!

I did, there’s nothing wrong with it.

Your modlog though shows many comment removals and bans for being an overly argumentative troll:

https://lemmy.world/modlog?page=1&userId=9317

So, ultimately, there’s a far, far, easier solution here.

We aren’t talking about what the guy did, we’re talking about you wanting to remove another users comment for imaginary reasoning.

Nothing in the comment broke the rules, that comment stands.

The reply to it broke the civility rules, it was removed.

First, a guy carrying a toy sword is not “a violent criminal”.

Second, even if they were, defending them doesn’t break any of the community rules.

August = Thanksgiving which is why there’s always family drama.

Not everyone knows the modlog is a thing or how to access it.

Oh, they likely weren’t based on health, but that still didn’t make it a bad idea. :)
