Jimmy Carter asked the nation to turn down thermostats ~50 years ago, and these people are still freaking out about it.

No seriously, there’s a definition of till that means the same as “until” but is like a century older. One of the many weird quirks of English.

Till is the correct spelling. It’s a separate word from until (and is actually older). 'Til is way newer and considered informal.

Now we can all be Psycho Mantis.

Yes, unfortunately it has to be done each time. Annoyingly it doesn’t work as it’s being taken off the dock, so I have to turn it back off then hold B and turn on again.

I’ve been lucky that Steam maps the controller to just about everything I play. I see where switching modes all the time would get irritating quickly.

I have the same controller. With newer firmware, if you hold B while turning it on, it starts in D-Input mode instead of X-Input or Switch. That should enable analog triggers and gyro at the same time.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kelpie for those confused. Though I’m not sure why they’re being referenced beyond “aren’t these weird looking”.

I wanted to live through the fun, far-future space exploration part of Star Trek, not the near-future WW3 part of Star Trek. :(

Meanwhile, poor Nuñez:

Original

They really dialed back on the modern music drops. Mostly it was orchestral music that wove in motifs based on the games’ soundtracks, the way it should have been in the first movie.

I see from Lymmyng’s comment I’m not the only one confused by the castle dropping back down onto a completely different planet.

For like 3/4 of the movie I thought Rosalina was going to be Peach’s mother, not sister.

The excessive attention given to Fox lends credence to those rumors there’s a Starfox game coming later this year.

No Fryguy or Triclyde. So glad we finally got Wart and Mouser recognition again, at least.

Overall, like the first movie, but bigger. A vehicle for random references and cameos where stuff just kind of happens for the fun of it. My standards for video game movies are still pretty low, so I enjoyed it for what it was. Probably won’t revisit anytime soon, but I don’t regret watching it or anything.

Also the Toy Story 5 trailer beforehand (and its “toys vs tech” story) hits a little different when half the kids in the theater were looking at their phones just a few minutes earlier. Kinda looks like you lost that fight already. :(

Or if your name was Nasser…

How nice to make the entire driver’s seat a crumple zone.

Lemmy works like Reddit formatting where you hit Enter twice for a new line (or put 2 spaces at the end).

Yup, Fox. They helpfully put it on Friday evenings when no one was watching, and preempted it for baseball half the time too.

Probably. The poll center’s page for the study says “No. of Variables: 68” (unfortunately you have to be a member to download the results) and the CNN article has a few that aren’t in OP’s list.

I know the feeling. I’ve seen Nick at Nite play According to Jim, which ended in 2009. I suddenly felt old.

Oh cool. The CEO is played by Mark Proksch. Didn’t know who he was back when this first aired.

I’m not the only one seeing the SS rune in the space between the 4 and 7, am I? That had to be intentional.

Yes. The battery compartment makes a handy seat too, which we definitely probably maybe never rode on. Ahem.

Not one person said Goldeneye? Wow. The main menu is good of course, but that pause music is legendary.
