    Also unhelpful, since, if you look at my comment history, I was already aware of the Costco butter fiasco and had made a snarky comment about it.

    Are you insinuating Google is reading your Lemmy comments and pushing you news recommendations based on those?











  • I think they had a certain charm (of the time) like @wazzupdog@lemmy.world mentions.

    But I agree (in hindsight) it’s not very good. The Sonic/Shadow levels were the only fun ones, and you forgot to mention the Tails/Eggman levels are constantly grating because of that damned weapon beeping.

    Also the sound mixing was terrible, couldn’t even hear the voice acting over the loud music. It used to crash often as well, but it could be that I just had a faulty disc so let’s not count that one.

    I think the only thing that kept me playing was the Chao Garden, and replaying the levels that were at least some bit of fun to grind those materials.

    edit: disclaimer, I played on GameCube










  • It was an ad partner’s pitch deck, not much to do with Facebook itself. And it didn’t really explain how it would be listening anyway.

    Besides, if they were recording, processing and / or transferring audio, that would mean there’s data usage, battery usage, etc - stuff that’s easy to prove.

    The truth is a lot simpler (and scarier) and you will find that in the links I provided.
