Sonic The Hedgehog (Sonic '06) is an absolute gem of a game in its original buggy mess form it released in. The bugs and frustration they cause only add onto the charm.

Also, the Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog (not SatAM) cartoon is just as good, if not slightly better, than SatAM due to the absolutely goofy atmosphere. Some of the jokes in Adventures were great. Absolutely loved the joke on Sloww Going where they had Tails writing down whatever Sonic said they needed to rebuild a house for a family of sloths and when Sonic goes to look back at what he wrote, it's nonsense and Tails has to remind Sonic that he's only 4½ years old and doesn't know how to write yet.

Saw a video pop up in the incognito mode thing for yt about Tails being a savage and I found a comment that absolutely resonates with why I absolutely LOVE that version of Tails as well and why he's the best version of tails ever. They were saying how his personality really makes him feel like a little kid without a filter. Absolutely the best Tails ever, so I 100% agree with that comment.

A small but notable percentage of low income, low education people are just fuckwits who make terrible decisions. They had access to opportunities, they could have overcome their circumstances with just a little effort but smoking cones and stealing shit was less effort so they did that and these people are a comparable drain on society as the uber rich.

I think 10 years ago this would've been unpopular, but today maybe not so much:

systemd is great software. I don't use distros that refuse to ship it. Especially the init system. Thanks, Lennart!

It's insane how many removed call lots of the ideas here "Eugenics". Eugenics is about producing the best GENES possible, while a lot of the replies here say that bad parents should not be allowed to make kids. Nobody talked about stopping people who aren't so "perfect" (biologically-wise) to make kids. Just not have more kids suffering by growing in abusive and broken households or been poor and have it very hard in life.

People are Lemmy are not much smarter that those on Reddit, it seems...
