also pokémon is a text game, not a movie with subtitles, so in practice the effect would be that i would read the text near-instantly and then either cut off the voice line or have to sit there listening to it while *literally nothing else happens*, and i'm not sure how that makes the game better

I think Apple broke MTKView and/or CAMetalLayer in iOS 26. I'm observing randomly appearing severe delays in present times, dropping framerate from 60fps to 30fps; this happens even with Apple's own Metal samples.

I really hate the term "sideloading". I preferred the original term, which was "installing software on a computer that you own"

Not to preach toxic positivity but more people need to ignore the little worm in their brain that tells them to share bad posts.
There is no shortage of places to see this crap. Compulsively wallowing in it can't be healthy.
Make space to get weird instead of just angry and sad.

This was supposed to be a picture of a Switch 2 box (MKW bundle), with carrying case and Pro Controller. However, it seems Amazon has utterly fumbled the bag here in Spain with the preorders (and apparently all of Europe?). I don't even have any information on when my order will actually ship.
