Today, we are re-indexing free adult NSFW content . We are still in ongoing discussions with payment processors and will be re-introducing paid content slowly to ensure we can confidently support the widest range of creators in the long term.

It’s a good thing and has me hopeful that this will be resolved before too, too long.

We are in the process of talking with other payment partners to accept card payments that Stripe is unable to process. We disabled Stripe payments last week on pages identified as having “adult NSFW content.” Now that we have a more specific definition from Stripe, we may review that initial list for potential re-introduction. However, our long-term plan is to implement one or more new processors to avoid putting the platform at risk.

Also good. And this was interesting, from Stripe

Stripe is currently unable to support sexually explicit content due to restrictions placed on them by their banking partners, despite card networks generally supporting adult content (with the appropriate registrations). Stripe has indicated that they hope to be able to support adult content in the future.

It’s also a completely different kind of game

on a scale of 1-100, how likely do you think it is for BF6 to meet its target of 100 million players?

serious, non-flippant answer: looking at the PC specs, 2? 3? you don’t get players if you don’t run on toasters

snarky answer: well, if Zampella backtracks on not porting it to the Switch 2, I think they have a fighting chance

I keep seeing it implied on this forum of aging grandpas and grandmas that the youngsters of today don’t like numetal, limp bizkit, eminem whathaveyou. Wrong, they love that shit. You either die informed and up to date or live long enough to see yourself become the out of touch fudd.

What if I am both informed and depressed about this fact

Burn the disc from Abandonware today (don’t trust content in game after 2022). I guess I will try it late 2025 (too many backlog!)

Lookin’ increasingly “now or never” on the Switch 2 for me, and after that showcase the other day…reckon I’m OK with never.

Edit: oh fuck sound the Alarmo because it’s going up too

Edit 2: $100 for a second set of Joycons is nuts.

Switch OLED: $350 → $400
Switch original flavor: $300 → $340
Switch Lite: $200 → $230
Alarmo: $100 → $110
Joy-Con 2: $95 → $100
Joy-Con: $80 → $90

It is pretty wild that an OLED is now just $50 less than a Switch 2.

What they oughta do is learn a lesson from our gacha game betters and put a flashing “BEST VALUE” sign over the Switch 2 displays in stores.

i know there are geopolitical circumstances in play here but nintendo releasing a new console then raising the price on the old one is actually so impressive to me, like nintendo has figured out a new way to be even more nintendo than ever before

In a year they’ll have an OLED Switch 2 that they’ll charge $550 for.
