    It does if you want to expand the memory of which ive read it can do up to 2 or 4 terabyte SD card.. which isnt even a thing yet. i dont think.

    the internal is 32 gigs. I could be wrong on that.

    That's more or less the first thing I always get for a new Nintendo console and it seems like a win/win. 99% of everyone gets the more or less reasonable amount of storage that comes with the thing, and crazy people like me can spend the extra twenty bucks or whatever to give a Game Boy 128GB of storage for no real reason other than to show my cell phone who I really love best.

    Still want one. I heard that it only has 32 gb internal and the legend of zelda game alone is around 15 gb.

    I highly doubt this would work.

    I think this stuff can be efficiently summarized as so:

    Lying and deceit are the trade crafts of intelligence services.

    This is why I like history more than politics. In best case you get to look at the archives and all the secret stuff and say "ooh, nice" when you discover that in the 19th century it was a purposeful tactic to use head of state as a source of misinformation to confuse the enemy to serve national interests.

    Also when you look at history there's less drama and people don't get as involved an zealous as with current or recent things.

    It will be fun in 200+ years or so when this stuff has been declassified (if it ever will) to see what really happened with the benefit of hindsight of "how come the folks didn't see this or that coming/happening?!"

    Though even with historical documents you need to keep your eyes open and remember healthy dose of source criticism. Who wrote this and why?

    If you don't and if you're like me, you could just write a text based version of it and then write an 'AI' to play with.

    Over the years you can also expand it's functionality so that it can both taunt you and be taunted.

    And I really needed to share this:

    Finally someone who understands.. it doesnt matter if something is correct or not. the only thing that matters is feelings..


    with that being said.



    At some university's the student bodies are trying to bring back segregation as a form of safe space. a they literally do say the words segregation or segregate.. like its a good thing

    or holding events talking about how studying for exams and doing projects is cutting into there protest time.

    When I first heard the deal about segregated safe spaces I thought it had to be some sort of trolling deal trying to get a rise out of people, fake news, or other such thing, and then I found out that it was actually being talked about. So sad that people would ever consider such a thing, living in a place where you will only ever meet or interact with other people exactly like you has never really been that good if we look at the greater narrative of history.
