In a way isn't telepathy just directly posting thoughts into another person's head?
🤔

every car needs to just be single-occupant but then with modular bits you can add on to hold more people. someone pay me for my good ideas.

I guess I've been one of those people a lot and to be fair I think seasons 3 and 4 are starting to really turn the tides on that opinion o' mine. That one Pidge episode (you know the one) showed me that the show is capable of great things-- I just wish they would try for them more often, y'know? Gimme that emotional catharsis! (to a lesser extent I think the Keith scene at the end of season 4 was another grab at this, so I'm really extra looking forward to season 5)

I agree about the badsmell. I really want to adopt a dog someday but I have no idea how I'm gonna deal with always having Dogsmell on my hands.

Ah yeah. Private automobiles make no sense just from a physics perspective... At least cars anyway.
Just to move a human, who weigh a few hundred pounds at most, we have to drag around a ton and a half of metal? Weems like a waste. We should be moving away from that model for that amd a bunch of other reasons that im sure most people are aware of here

nah I don't really know what to think of those. I was talking about self-driving cars--imo they only limit freedom of movement while filling the same niche as public transport but with greater pollution and energy use.

the prevailing consensus on voltron legendary defender seems to be that it's really enjoyable if you bring a lot to the table and I do not much care for that opinion, I like it because I genuinely think it's good on its own merits and do not need to bring my own jam to the toast cafe as it were

I think it's pretty apparent given that some of the most enthusiastic about those jokes are white and/or straight themselves. I feel like it can function as a form of deflection.

This list of SNES extra chips on Wikipedia makes no mention of any sound chips on cartridges, but apparently some Famicom cartidges had ones.
I had a Sega Megadrive growing up, but I think the stock SNES sound chip was better than what the Sega had. I have a vague memory too that some SNES games had a sound chip on their cartridges, but the purpose of which was to enable the abuse of the original sound chip for non-audio processing.
I think in the end it might be that the Sega soundchip was more limited that what SNES had and thus the good songs had to be more carefully written and arranged to fit the limitations. I think one reason why Sonic 1 OST is so good it was made by a bassist as I think it's the bass that is most lacking on Sega games. But bassists tend to be quite sensitive to tone so I'm sure that helped.
Example: compare the hospital theme of EarthBound to the Star Light Zone theme, which seems to be Genesis chip bass at its most mellow and even then the bass line consists of pretty detached notes, I think in order to work around limitations. It works here because the music demands it, but I think SNES is the general winner here as it could support a bass and drum propelled track like the above.

Also Streets of Rage. Also didn't lots of higher end SNES games just use an extra music chip on the cartridge anyway?

I actually think hold and no hold are both interesting games in their own right. Hold makes basic survival easier at first, but that's why TGM3 uses it as an excuse to crank the speed up even faster and expect the player to utilize this privilege well in order to keep up. But TGM1/2 forces you to keep your stack neater and ready for anything, whatever pieces you get you have to be able to deal with them.
If I was in charge of making the perfect Tetris implementation, they'd both be present as two separate game modes with separate leaderboards.
