Oh man I remember that controller. There was a little stick you could screw into the d-pad that was a bit of help for some games, but it was all pain after a while

Wwwbdd@lemmy.worldto Gaming@lemmy.world•Are there any "Mostly Positive" games on Steam that you really enjoy?English1·1 year agoDark Nights with Poe and Munroe is the only game in my library that came up as mostly positive, and it’s a…mood, for sure
Imagine if a community theatre group made a cheesy suspense/mystery film that ended up feeling like an excuse to dress up sexy. When they finished they sold it to a game studio who chopped up the video, added some quicktime events and shipped it.
Mechanically it’s not great, and it’s not great writing, but when I opened myself up to the silliness of it I enjoyed it
Wwwbdd@lemmy.worldto World News@lemmy.world•Columbia faculty members walk out after pro-Palestinian protesters arrestedEnglish52·1 year agoI just checked back and that picture is gone from the article. It had a crowd of people with 4 or 5 if them holding up signs on what looked like printer paper with messages like “protect our students” but the signs and fonts looked unnaturally crisp, almost like a meme template

Wwwbdd@lemmy.worldto World News@lemmy.world•Canada extends ban on foreign ownership of housing by two years - ReutersEnglish1·1 year agoHow do you define ‘corporate’ ownership? If you can own 100 properties as an individual, does that count as ‘corporate’?
It’s how you report the income. A corporation pays corporate tax rate on profit. An individual pays income tax. If someone wants to pay the individual income tax on 100 properties, that’s awesome. 33% over 250k. Corporate tax rate can easily be half of that.
Plus filing your taxes is waaaaaay easier having a corp hold all the assets and generating revenue, and the individual as an employee who draws a salary. If you’re just an individual with 100 properties and you get audited, you’re in for a bumpy ride trying to pick apart personal vs rental purchases
