well, shit. this made me sad. I want the happiness and optimism back.

In vidya or life?

Am I allowed to have my cake and eat it too?

Can you also explain this shit idiom to me, i've never understood it. Why would you obtain a cake if you didn't intend to eat it? What other purpose does a cake serve but to consume it for pleasure?

this is some 'le wrong generation' shit right here

>>377311861
Once you've eaten the cake you no longer have it

If you have a cake then eat it, you no longer have it.

It's an example of mutually exclusive choices.

Nintendoomed has been going on since the 90s and still isn't true.

Man, these old Usenet posts are always so comfy.
Just goes to show you that humanity was always stupid and that's kinda of a reassuring feeling.

It's the same with those old messages from Roman empire times that were essentially all just penis jokes and talking about their waifus.

I don't have the pic, but there are pics with messages from the 80's that has people shitting on the NES. Or SNES, it was one of the two.

Oh shit, I get it now.

I worded it wrong, which made it harder to understand.

I guess this is the thread to ask. I was a little babbie boi gamer and mainly on consoles as a child aside from Doom and Quake 3 but when did resolutions like 512x384, 640x480 and 720x480 become standard? I think the first time hearing about 720p was like 2004 or 2005.
