I know it probably isn't, but for some reason if i'm talking to someone, they or even me might say "grass-skinned" or something instead of just saying "green"... Is it racist to say "green person", or is it racist to try to avoid saying "green person"?

I remember my Karate class at college
I was teamming with a guy
He was at the other side of the gymnase grabbing stuff for class
Another student arrives, talk to me, asking to be in our team as well.
I agree, saying our other teammate was up there grabbing stuff
He asked me, which one is our teammate?
I couldn'T say the guy with long hair, they were 3 guys with long hair
I couldn't say the guy blue t-shirt, they were 2 with blue t-shirt
The only thing I could say to difference him from other, is that he had black skin
But if I say the black guy over there, I'll sound racist, right?
so... dillema...

    I mean since basically all the games are errmmm free lol
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I mean yeah sure but the specs are the same as a $50 model, it's just those pesky "quality of life" things driving up the price, like an actually working speaker, or buttons that don't melt, and stuff like that.

    I think all in my Pi 4 was well north of 200 bucks 150ish for the Pi 4 the case the fancy cooler, then like 70 for the 500GB MicroSD then like 70 for the Xbox controller. But honestly it's a nice set up I really enjoy and to me was worth every penny. (even bought more controllers for 2 or 4 player games.) hmmm have never played any 2 player games yet :(
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Yeah that's what I hate about the RPi, it's supposedly $30 or something but it takes an additional $200 of accessories to actually turn it into a working something.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    yes that's the expensive part lol
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I mean sure it's flexible and stuff but so is uremum but it's fiddly.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Yeah a lot of it I consider a hobby, using Batocera I am constantly adjusting the collection adding and removing stuff, scraping the artwork. Haven't even started on some music for the theme... Also way down the road I am considering attempting to do a WiiFlow knock off lol
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I want everything served on a plate plz ktnx, "work" is too much work for me.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Hmm, with that in mind, maybe a complete out-the-box solution with all the games collected, pacthed and optimized for me would be worth $150 :unsure:
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
