Wait till Era learns that Gabby Petito was an anti-masker/ vaxxer.

They will celebrate her death and call swamp boy a hero.

Considering where she's from I wouldn't be all that surprised.

This is nothing specific to LeBron but the "did my own research" line is just kind of off-putting to me.

And Black people in America need to do a bit more due diligence than others. Black people in America get to be a little bit more suspect than other people. A Black person being hesitant isn't the same as the horse paste drinking motherfuckers that say they're doing their own research.

And he got the vaccine. So who gives a fuck? Why is it off-putting when he did what he needed to and said it out loud?

They went from grave dancing on people who were vaccine hesitant, to now praising it because a black man is doing it. Grow a backbone and stick with at least one belief for once. Might help with mods having to lock every other thread and dishing out mass-bans if people there could figure out what stance they're even suppose to have.

Speaking of unrealistic...

Since its founding in late 2017, ResetEra has been an inviting bonfire at the crossroads of the gaming industry.

Replace "an inviting bonfire" with "a disgusting trashfire" and it'd be correct.

I 100% believe that literally every online community incelchief has become involved with has devolved into snide, sarcastic, passive aggressive posts targeting other members, actively hostile responses to opinions by reducing them to the most uncharitable and absurd extreme interpretations, and vindictive and malicious abuse of any moderation systems to silence viewpoints that incelchief was not intellectually capable of debating.

Guys, it's a reporter who is citing at least 11 different
sources. Eleven.

Employees at 11 game companies said their teams were in possession of Nintendo's 4K development kit for the Switch.

This is a lot of fucking sources. A lot.

This isn't some random twitter or forum leaker with a crappy track record, we shouldn't be acting like they are. This is a reporter with sources, a lot of them. Unless every single person they've talked to is straight up lying to them--which would be straight up insane and cause for their editor to have a long talk with them about how they do their job--there's something out there.

Dudes gotta stop putting actual reporters on the same level as twitter and forum leakers. Dudes on twitter or at random fansites or blogs are not the same as reporters working at reputable outlets. Stop acting like it's all the same shit because it ain't.

Dude has 11 different companies saying they have dev kits. The odds of 11 different people lying about this are insane.

It's what they're used to in their country, after all! Really patriotic.

[Uncle]

I don't see why nintendo's tweet is even at odds with 11 devs saying they have 4k capable units 

they're both saying completely different things

nintendo cyoa during the launch of their new model saying please god don't wait, just buy our latest shit

and devs honestly saying nintendo gave them more powerful kits which may or may not mean anything at all, kits have had double ram of the real console in the past, or any number of differences

[Nintex]

They just keep digging.

The 'confusion' might be the 4kdp_preferred_over_usb30 setting. Which switches between display port and USB output but just because a port can output in 4k and is labeled as such, does not mean that it does (and it doesn't).

Anyhow I doubt developers at 11 studios would all decide to risk their jobs to give Bloomberg the 'scoop' on the 99th Switch Pro rumor.

[benjipwns]

And let's not forget that Takashi reported that the Nintendo Switch would be 1440 docked and 1080p in 2016:

www.youtube.com
1440p On The Switch?....Wait What?!
A reporter by the name of Takashi Mochizuki put out a tweet that the Switch is using a 1080p display in portable mode and a WQHD display when in docked mode....
www.youtube.com www.youtube.com

And he also reported about the greater profit margins from the nintendo switch oled.

Dunno. Obviously Nintendo is working on a sucessor, every company does this, but this guy is talking about more powerful switch basically since 2016 lol.

Nintendo will never release a 4k console.

But they did give devs one.

Why?

Because they're fucking Nintendo and they can do whatever they want

[benjipwns]

I think Uncle goes a bit too far and think Nintex, sigh, is closer to the probable storyline here. Nintendo could have sent out development kits with a 4K output as that's borderline trivial to support on a devkit, it's a port. And developers will not care how it runs in 4K, they just want it to output to their monitors.

But that's not what the Nintenyearolds are hearing and writing pages upon pages in that thread about. They're hearing Switch 4K. Except there's almost 100% no chance Nintendo is producing a Switch with the "secret sauce" to output games at 4K. The current one can't even do 1080p legitimately even though that's "supported" and some games do it. (No, I don't care about five years in advancements in technology elsewhere.) And they certainly aren't producing one that can do 4K undocked because they're fucking Nintendo.
