Is there a term for humor that is ruined by terrible grammar and diction?

Crazy, how in the heck did he spin that to make himself look good?

Obligatory:

True. Was playing Arkham Knight the other day and thought this nine year old game looked better than at least half of current gen games.

I have a vague recollection about the Nesticle drama, but also don’t recall the details.

I know the emulator scene precedes UltraHLE by at least several years. Publicity around UltraHLE just made it somewhat mainstream, and Nintendo learned first-hand about the Streisand effect, lol!

I used all of those. Nesticle had that bloody hand as a cursor. Also, Genecyst for Sega Genesis/Master System emulation.

Remember when emulation really blew up after UltraHLE successfully ran Ocarina of Time? That was when I first became aware of emulators (IIRC, it was front page news on IGN). Nintendo filed a lawsuit and took UltraHLE down, but we all know how that turned out (at this point, I believe I’ve lost count of how many N64 emulators were developed in the ensuing years). This recent Yuzu/Ryujinx drama is just history repeating itself. Emulation will never die.

Nah, forget about trying to reason with them. They’ll just respond with “I honestly don’t care, I just don’t like it being shoved down my throat all the time!”, even though it isn’t actually being ‘shoved down their throat’, but you can’t reason them out of a subjective delusion like that.

But since it is worded so poorly, you can just as easily assume the other interpretation is correct as well, e.g., it’s ‘the most important thing’ because not voting will ‘send a message’ that Republicans refuse to participate in a ‘broken election system’. He also said ‘will not be voting’ instead of potentially making the message clearer with different wording like ‘will not be able to vote’, so that makes not voting sound like an intentional choice Republicans should make.

I admit my reading comprehension could be off, but that is about the dumbest, most confusing way to word a statement that is so potentially contentious. My interpretation was that he said if the ‘election fraud’ is not ‘resolved’, Republicans won’t bother voting because they will assume it is rigged. The ‘election fraud’ has not been ‘resolved’ (because there never was any), hence, Republicans should stay home.

Seems to be a recurring theme in the Zelda universe…

I love trying to out-logic AI chat. I know it’s probably impossible, but still fun. Haven’t got it to do anything against its programming yet, but I can consistently get it to give me the “this chat is over” equivalent line after a handful of exchanges.

I remember printing out a 100% guide for Ocarina of Time in the late 90s. IIRC, it came out to ~100 pages. Computer teacher was not happy, lol!

Don’t they all essentially require internet access to be ‘smart’? I have a LGTV (with WebOS, an app store, etc.) that I basically treat as ‘dumb’ by leaving it disconnected from our network.
