  • Cows need to be pregnant to produce milk, so they're artificially inseminated throughout most of their lives.

    Also, most people can't properly digest lactose. Only about 30% of the population has the enzyme required, and most of them are concentrated in Europe/North America.

  • The difference is how much money they're making and how they're spending it.

    For pretty much all creators bitching about not getting paid enough, it's so they can live lavish lifestyles without having to think about what they spend their money on.

  • Everything.

    Piracy is a tool to help reduce the disparity in wealth.

    The only time you should buy something that you could pirate is if you can't find it and you plan on sharing it with everyone else. I call this "taking one for the team."

  • No problem.

    The hardest part is getting a controller working. I'm not sure what OS you have, but getting a bluetooth controller working properly on Linux can be hit or miss. If you're on Windows with a USB controller or one with a dongle, it should be much easier. I'm sorry I can't give direct advice because it will depend on your setup.

    Otherwise, just download emulators for the consoles you want, download the games for free at vimm.net, then you're off to the races. You may have to change some settings, but it shouldn't be too difficult if you're willing to look at them and experiment a bit as needed.

    You can download the MEGAsync program and go through the process of syncing the folders that hold game saves to an online backup. It's pretty intuitive to follow the program. You will need to look up where each emulator holds its save data though, because it's not really standardized.

    To get you started, these are some emulators that I recommend with large libraries and stable support:

    -PCSX2 for PS2

    -Dolphin for Gamecube

    -Torzu for Switch

    -mGBA for Gameboy Advance

    -Duckstation for PS1

    -PPSSPP for PSP

    There are of course others for different consoles, and even multiple emulators for the same console. Don't get too hung up on doing things perfectly the first time. Try to get some experience and you'll see what works for you and what doesn't.

    Start small and work your way up.

  • Maybe it's just me, but it doesn't even look like America needs an excuse to use its military budget.

    To me, it looks like Americans have been dumping money into their military because of cultural reasons. Fear, but also a sense of superiority and "America should be the best in everything."

    Looking at the near $1 trillion American yearly military budget and how many conflicts the military actually engages in, and we can see how much a return Americans are getting on their investment.

  • I'm not a developer, but I'm guessing a good start would be to try installing it on an old phone if you have one.

    See what problems you come across, try to learn what's going on, share your knowledge with others.
