The 'restored' version is an official ROM hack of the NES version, so it can be played on the NES itself too via a flashcart.

Same with Garrett County in Western Maryland; lots of multi-million dollar vacation houses that border Maryland's largest lake, despite there being few job opportunities in the county as a whole.

With all the high-speed railroads in Europe and Japan, I don't see how the US's lack of investment in its own rail infrastructure is reflective of such a trend in western countries as a whole.

Something they didn't fix for the Myst remake that the Myst-like Quern is much better at is not making puzzles so obscure as to essentially require a guide to complete the game. Was anything done about that problem for the Riven remake?

The problem is that anything less than unwavering support for Israel would be spun by well-funded propagandists as left-wing at best and antisemitic at worst. Regardless of how unjustified those claims are, and how detrimental they are to the wellbeing of oppressed Palestinians, a switch in foreign policy tactics now just for Netanyahu to wait for Trump to be elected is not worth it, as any short term benefits for the Palestinians would be undone tenfold should Trump be elected. Beyond that, a similar or worse fate would await Ukraine should that occur, so it's ultimately better to wait until the election is over to consider major policy changes.

While statements like that are needless fear mongering, any jobs they do replace in the long term are at least making the economy more efficient, in the same sense as computers did. It's unfortunate for anyone's job to become redundant, but technology shouldn't be delayed or avoided for that reason alone.

For me it's about all the subreddits that didn't migrate to Lemmy, and the ghost town feeling caused by only having 55,000 monthly users versus Reddit's 850 million. With Lemmy's active user count slowly dropping instead of rising, everything needs to be done to bring more redditors to Lemmy, whether they are supporters of piracy or not.

While it's great to have a thriving piracy community, it being one of the only thriving ones inevitably makes potential users associate the platform with it and convinces them to either choose another Reddit alternative or simply avoid the inconvenience of switching platforms. While we may disagree with them, the failure of the Reddit blackout demonstrated that they make up the lion's share of users from large communities that have yet to materialize here. Better to have many communities with a diversity of opinions than only a handful of echo chambers.

Gotta try to drag a few good people back from Tartarus...

Rapidgator is a file hosting website often used by DDL sites. It makes money by slowing downloads down to a crawl unless you have a premium subscription, as well as only allowing one download at a time for free users. As this is problematic for downloading multiple movies at a time, let alone TV shows, debrid services serve as a middleman by downloading files from file hosts such as Rapidgator to their own servers and caching them for their own subscribers to download for a set amount of time.

Will the extension be updated to use Manifest V3? If it isn't, it seems that compatibility with Chrome might not last much longer, unfortunately.

Edit: Was just asking as I recently installed the extension and Chrome complains that it uses Manifest V2. While Firefox is better than Chrome for lots of reasons, until I make the switch I was just wondering if the extension would keep working given that the alternative 12 foot ladder isn't tall enough for several paywalls...
