HEY

GUYS

HEY

I just learned that if I turn off my tv my Nintendo Switch goes immediately into sleep mode all by itself.




This combined with the tv changing to THE SWITCH channel on its own when I push a button on my controller to turn on the system...


IS AWESOME

My system did not automatically go to sleep when I turned off the TV in 2004 and then let me resume playing right where I left off in like two seconds with a single button push on the controller.



This is like 3ds levels of sleep convenience on my TV


It's Good!

Zelda speedrunner who I think/guessing was having some hand problems from playing too many video games.

Narcissa Wright was a pioneer in Zelda speedrunner, developing many of the methods used in OoT and Wind Waker, having held the record in both multiple times. She came in second at the Nintendo World Championships in 2015, but due to the kind of contortions needed for the games she plays she has suffered debilitating hand injuries and was no longer able to stream the types of things that made her popular. Apparently the joycons are ergonomic enough she can play again.

Oh that's cool. I didn't think of potential for separated joycons for disabled/injured people.

Unless you read Japanese you aren't going to be playing DQX on the Switch. The odds that SE would port the MMO to English are extremely low.

Even when the match power state option is off? It works pretty well with my Samsung. It turns on my tv when I power on the Switch and vise versa.

If I have HDMI plugged into my 2016 Samsung TV it switches to the port every few minutes and there is no fix in sight. So gently caress hdmi cec.

What if corporations base tax rate was lower or higher depending on how much more they paid their employees annually on average above cost of living or something?

This would end up only working in the executives' favor if this happened somehow.

Why is this in the Switch thread? Did I miss some context for this?

Anyway, I see two immediate problems:

1) No matter how you set it up it would be insanely difficult to calculate, particularly for any employer with a workforce spread over many locations. And any calculation that complex is prone to both error and manipulation.

2) How would you fairly differentiate between capital-intensive businesses and labor-intensive businesses? Company A and Company B may both make a billion dollars a year in revenue, but A may do it with 50 highly-compensated employees and B may do it with 5,000 lowly-compensated employees. Does B get taxed more for paying lower average (median?) wages than A, even if B employs more people and A is more profitable?

2b) If link lower tax rates to higher wages, you're only further incentivizing companies to push towards greater automation and reduced reliance on human labor. Firing unskilled laborers and replacing them with machines allows you to cut salary spend AND raise your average wage per employee, without actually paying more in wages.

Cool, seems like the Mercedes DLC is back in Deluxe after all. YouTube uploading is gone though, probably because of the system wide video clip sharing that's supposed to be coming soon.

I loved making videos of wins in goon races. This reminds me, who is going to set up the goon room(s) online? Last time we had two (iirc) one with default settings and one with crazier power ups. The default was by far the most popular and only one that held large #s of goons a few months post launch.
