Any noobie guide on switch piracy and along with emulator setup?
download Ryujinx, get keys by downloading them from a site (like from prodkeys.net) and you should get files "prod.keys" and "title.keys", place them in "./Ryujinx/system/". then you can go on a site like www.nxbrew.com, download nsp or xci files of the game (and a potential updates and whatever dlc), and throw them in folders of your choice (i personally have a "roms" folder with all my game files for different consoles, including a "switch" folder, with folders called "games" and subfolders "updates", "dlc", "mods", "cheats").
then, get on ryujinx, select the folder with your games as your game directory, and your games should be visible. you can right click on the game on the list and add updates or dlc, you can go to the mod directory ryujinx made for the game and add a bunch of folders with the mod data inside of it (for example, for ACNH i might have a folder called "360_camera" and inside of it will be a folder called "romfs"/"romFs" which will have a bunch of files/folders for the mod in it) and then select the mods to enable. for cheats you just need a folder named "cheats" in the mod directory and then you can put cheats for the game in plain text in the folder.
you can also mess with the graphics settings, use an input device (probably an xbox/playstation/switch controller), change datetime (although i find it doesn't allow you to make the date out of sync with your device's date, so you may want to go to your computer settings and manually change it if you want to do that), etc.
redditors even on piracy subs treat actually pirating things like it's voldemort, so when i wanted to emulate switch games it was a pain in the ass for me to find out what i needed to do, i hope this helps you not run into those issues lol.

My guy, Italian politicians literally publicly idolize the good ol' days of Mussolini, and talk about Mussolini in a positive light, I think that's worthy of the title fascist since they're praising the guy who CREATED FASCISM. The current PM is just a fascist.
And Putin, Orbán, Modi, the AfD are incredibly undeniably fascist. Or at the very least Modi and Orbán are fascist-adjacent (Modi is a sort of Nazi but for Hindus instead of Germans).
I don't know enough about Dutch politics/politicians to speak of it. But afaik they're going down a similar path as Germany, Sweden, etc. but even more pronounced. Argentina I don't know if the word "fascist" is accurate at all but the new president is certainly very far-right.
And in the US Republicans are descending towards fascism, they've already taken many of our rights and are in the process of taking more fundamental rights, the things the most popular Republicans publicly preach about and have like half the country's support over is sickening. The only reason we're not balls deep into stripping away the rights of anyone who doesn't fit into the majority categories (christian, white, straight/cis, male) is because Democrats exist (even though elected Democrats just play the "moderate Republican" and are complicit in the current state of the country).

Something something Biden bad

I'd like to ask how immigration is a problem to you? Immigration means a larger workforce and more value in the economy. If immigrants are "taking jobs" and making people unemployed as many people like to say, that isn't a problem with immigration, that's a problem with the way our economy has always been set up. Being out of a job and unemployed shouldn't destroy your life, take away your healthcare and education, etc., and in civilized countries they don't have nearly as much of an issue with that. So is it something else? Is it being against cultural diversity?
Undocumented immigrants also can't vote in state or federal elections. VERY FEW municipalities allow undocumented immigrant voting, so few in fact (17 to be exact, if you include ones that only allow them to vote in school board elections, like SF, Oakland, and Chicago) that it's absolutely a non-issue.
BTW many EU countries allow non-EU citizens to vote (Sweden, Denmark, Finland, Netherlands, Belgium, Luxembourg, Slovenia, Lithuania).
I'm also curious as to which "half" that Trump accomplished that you're referring to. Spending was extremely high under Trump. He was KNOWN for making national debt skyrocket, increasing government spending a ton in order to tax the rich less, fucking up foreign relations including trading which set up a terrible future for prices. And all of this without even facing a pandemic. The economy complex and the answer to its problems isn't just "stop printing money lol".
Trump also, completely contrary to what he campaigned on, does all he can to increase illegal immigration. He did absolutely nothing to stop or reduce it, he just used it as something to convince people to vote for him. It's been decreasing since Obama and Trump didn't contribute at all. Meanwhile, Trump has been actively working against introducing legislation on immigration because he doesn't want Biden to get good press, he has influenced Republicans directly to kill multiple bills that would contribute to controlling immigration.
That only leaves voting, which Trump heavily worked against... He definitely did really want to make more states ID voters, but not because of some goal to make voting more fair or streamlined – he actually put much of his effort making sure voting WASN'T fair or easy, and tried making voting much more of a pain in the ass, especially for poorer and marginalized people, to lower voter turnout – it was to encroach on peoples' right to vote by making it have an extremely high personal cost. Naturally people who are far more well off and have a lot of time, people who are privileged, which are generally people who vote Republican, will be the ones who can afford to put the time and effort and money in.

Yuzu Nintendo Switch Emulator Lives On With The Nuzu, Suyu Projects

It genuinely surprises me the amount of diehard nintendo fans who will defend the corporation's heinous acts tooth and nail that there are. They make good games, and they were my childhood, therefore their wrongs are excusable (or not wrongs at all)!

i'd play totk on grapefruit, or kiyomi, or tangor, or even rangpur. perhaps kampei, or jabara, or iyokan. maybe lumia or pompia, or daidai, or chinotto, or calamansi. koji and reikou work too. suenkat/sunki, sudachi, kabosu, oroblanco, dangyuja, amanatsu... the possibilities are endless!
but maybe citri are too obvious, maybe we should think out of the box... like melons! honeydew sounds like a good emulator name (maybe a bit overused though), and so does argos, gaya or hami too! kajari, mirza, and dosakai as well...

The only things that the Biden administration has done that's bad is genocide obviously, but a little genocide never hurt anybody... I guess you could try blaming him for inflation or gas prices, or the fallout of COVID-19, but that would be kind of dumb
You can, of course, say he hasn't done enough, which wouldn't be wrong, but the things he's done have had a pretty positive effect on the country and have brought us at least a little closer to the left – even with an opposing congress. I can't say I like how he treats, say, nationalism and the Middle East, but he's at least somewhat redeemed himself from just being a "moderate Republican" I would say. At least his administration has brought in officials who are tougher on corporations, even if he's still a corporate Democrat.

Y'all ever enthusiastically recommend a series to someone, then two days later suddenly remember that one episode/chapter where the creator's fetish is on full display?
like 99% of animes? yea
i mean it's embarassing to even recommend a majority of animes, because of how absurdly they portray women and how excessive/creepy they are with the fan service. it's hard to even watch when the characters are just completely objectified and the creators go out of their way to overly sexualize them. it's just completely normalized in the anime community and it's disappointing to say the least – it definitely doesn't help the image of people who say they like anime, it's why even a lot of mega weebs won't be caught saying they like anime as a genre. just the concept and extent of waifu culture in anime communities is icky...
as for non-anime, i think shows which aren't like that are a lot more common, like the first animated shows i can think of are things like king of the hill, avatar, boondocks, regular show, south park, etc. they generally aren't as bad with objectifying women (but there are definitely some that do it really badly, don't get me wrong)

Retirement being supported through taxes rather than individuals choosing to save would be far better. It's wealth based so people who can afford to save for retirement are already doing it by default, and people who make an egregious amount of money are taxed so those who can't afford to save for retirement aren't left to rot.
Same concept as other social services, really. Having the means for basic survival should be guaranteed by society, especially for people who can't support themselves.
