Ignorant and short-sighted, same as people complaining abou CG in movies a decade ago.

I bit of a derailment here, but having done my annual LotR rewatch recently, some of the CGI is starting to stand out for me. Apparently a remaster would cost way too much, and trying to work with such old scenes would be neigh impossible today due to compatibility issues. But I've wondered if a similar tech can be applied, not to change the visuals, but to apply better lighting/shading to things like balrog, or gollum.
I want to be very clear I don't wish for a Star Wars-type remake. LotR may be the best trilogy ever, and it seems less and less likely to ever be dethroned as such.

Skeptical is widely used in Britain too, it's about 50/50

I believe it does

The cost to maintain these must be insane. A quick uneducated search gives me about half a billion $ per year. Absolutely bonkers.

Good question! The silver actually dissolves in contact with their blood and causes their cells to rapidly tear themselves apart, diminishing in the process. So a trace amount of silver would hurt terribly, but would likely not kill them.

I have hacked into 192.168.1.254 and planted malware, that should teach op!
For some probably unrelated reason, my NAS has gone down

Presumptuous and incorrect. They have made a big dent already. Entire communities abandoned and dev teams disbanded. No-one is willing to share links publicly anymore. Thus my point - hosting their pirated content on any site that wishes to operate or be accessed from US, EU or the UK would be committing a suicide by defending, or even not taking action on their dmca requests.

Have you seen what happens to ANY website hosting pirated Nintendo content? How many of them are still online?

I am not so sure this situation would be much better on other services. Nintendo could steamroll smaller companies.

Programmers making ui/ux decisions haha. You'll pry 'undefined' from my cold, dead hands

I would imagine they're crossing lights...
