Somebody should tell the Ukrainian Air Force to get rid of their MiGs

[-] JohnBrownNote@hexbear.net 50 points 6 months ago

huh i would've thought russia already got rid of all of ukraine's MIGs by now

[-] nat_turner_overdrive@hexbear.net 59 points 6 months ago

liberals will not stop until the word "genocide" is completely watered down. When I stubbed my toe yesterday the coffee table did a genocide to me.

I guess these people assume these flashcarts are made on the same assembly lines as Russian warplanes. I also wonder what they think about the death and destruction the Western MIC causes around the globe- probably they just don't, at all

spoiler

I've also seen many people allege that the whole Russian branding on these carts is just Team Xecuter trying to throw Nintendo off their scent

[-] JohnBrownNote@hexbear.net 32 points 6 months ago

if they were on the same assembly lines then every flash cart is a plane component they didn't make so these libs should buy them by the pallet

lathe-of-heaven The year is 2024, the Soviet Union has suppressed the military aggression of capitalist superpowers like the United States. The Mikoyan and Gurevich Design Bureau now dedicates it's resources to electronic entertainment for the masses.

It's only "genocide" if you're the 'right' kind of white person or if it's been more than 100 years sweaty

Uyghurs confirmed honorary Aryans by Adrian Zenz.

[-] EmmaGoldman@hexbear.net 25 points 6 months ago

It's only "genocide" if it's politically expedient for the western ruling class to label it as such.

The settler hostage girl who a palestinian child refused to give a candy call it her personal Holocaust

Imagine if the people who did this applied the same standard to America. It'd fold under embargos faster than apartheid South Africa lmao

Nintendo Adults, ladies and enbies.

[-] robinn_IV@hexbear.net 31 points 6 months ago

Who will stop the UNSCRUPULOUS users driving Nintendo to bankruptcy by STEALING their precious 60 dollar games?

When a subreddit's ideology becomes so engrained in a person's identity they include the number in their usernames completely unrelated to reddit.

You mean a COMMIE welder? I'll bet they only use those to make their orc armor and bombs to kill Ukrainian ~~nazis~~ freedom fighters

[-] Evilphd666@hexbear.net 25 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago)

Never mind the Ukrainians have been bombing ethnic Russians for the last decade and made hard political and legal steps to erase their culture, religion, language, and voice from society. Russia are totally the genociders here.

[-] Tankiedesantski@hexbear.net 22 points 6 months ago

Ukraine fans: "HOW DARE YOU NAME SOMETHING AFTER A RUSSIAN WEAPON?! 😭"

Also Ukraine fans: "This is my cat: Panzerkampfwagen VI Tiger Ausf. E of the Schwere SS-Panzerabteilung 101 😊"

[-] GhostSpider@hexbear.net 7 points 6 months ago

Oh, how I miss the days I would browse reddit-logo and see unconditional love and praise for an army of literal neonazi mercenaries 🥲

[-] Tankiedesantski@hexbear.net 4 points 6 months ago
[-] GhostSpider@hexbear.net 5 points 6 months ago

Well, I don't browse reddit-logo anymore, but it's probably happening today too.

[-] yuli@hexbear.net 18 points 6 months ago

lmao doesn’t ukraine still also fly mig-29s?

[-] NewLeaf@hexbear.net 16 points 6 months ago

If only they actually cared about war

[-] TraumaDumpling@hexbear.net 14 points 6 months ago

i don't even know if the russians use the 'mig' designation anymore but the mig-21 is definitely the most aesthetic war plane in existence, with an impressive war record and long list of users to boot. i think they use the designation scheme 'SU-[number]' for their modern planes but i could be wrong.

[-] Minnesocialism@hexbear.net 25 points 6 months ago

Mig and SU are designations from whichever aircraft manufacturer they came from. Mig comes from Mikoyan, whereas SU is derived from Sukhoi.

The mechanism for switching games is just so clunky and will probably cause wear to the cartridge slot. Why not put a couple buttons on top or something?

[-] doublepepperoni@hexbear.net 9 points 6 months ago

I have to assume they were limited by the security measures on unmodded Switches

Literally the entire video: here's why this will be basically useless for piracy

The comments: You're promoting piracy by showing this

[-] HexReplyBot@hexbear.net 1 points 6 months ago

I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:

Before taking a pc screenshot, click on the reduce window button

[-] doublepepperoni@hexbear.net 8 points 6 months ago

puzzled googled this but found nothing

[-] alexandra_kollontai@hexbear.net 12 points 6 months ago

The picture is hard to read on mobile phones because the picture is wide but phone screens are thin. So, to be able to read it, phone users have to zoom in to make the text big enough and horizontally scroll, which doesn't feel very good.

It helps to make the window smaller horizontally before taking a screenshot, so that people can read it more easily on phone or computer.

[-] JohnBrownNote@hexbear.net 10 points 6 months ago

turn your phone 90 degrees and more of the text will fit

also OP should be copypasting the text anyway for screen readers and then you wouldn't have to look at the picture at all.

[-] LeZero@hexbear.net 8 points 6 months ago

The Mig Jimenez company is CANCELLED

[-] shitholeislander@hexbear.net 8 points 6 months ago

the Nintendo Switch comment is the cherry on top here. dude would let Nintendo fuck his wife if he had one

[-] GhostSpider@hexbear.net 7 points 6 months ago

sigh I don't even have interest in pirating games for my Switch, but the Mig marketing team finally convinced me to buy one angery

[-] doublepepperoni@hexbear.net 1 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago)

From what I've seen it's not even useful for pirating games as it currently exists as you can't just load it up with roms from the internet. You need to a) dump carts from a hacked Switch or b) get the MIG cart dumper that's not available yet to get all the files needed

[-] M68040@hexbear.net 4 points 6 months ago

I don’t think piracy’s ever been big on the whole national allegiance thing, especially not the historical naval kind

[-] Leon_Grotsky@hexbear.net 2 points 6 months ago

Well, it depends on whether there's currently a maritime war in the Atlantic or not.

Privateering is a good racket if you can land it.
