@nprofile…lklx as someone who has struggled with depression and mental illness AND who is a man of faith... Let me just say that I believe depression is a testament to God's love. Its a sign that something is wrong and its meant to help us move forward.
The fact that so many people are struggling with mental health right now leads me to believe that its our culture that is sick, the social ties that bind us together are broken, and we're living under the thumb of evil men. Family and friends are key.

How the hell do you build a user experience for people who are maliciously ignorant about computers?
I have a client with two employees who *refuse to remember their usernames and passwords* and I get emails at least once a month saying "employee 1 can no longer access the portal."
"Why not?" I ask.
"Not sure," with a screenshot saying they input the wrong username/password.
So I have to log in, reset their password and send it to them. I've tried forcing them to set their own password...

@nprofile…fdjr I haven't been able to get your comments out of my mind over the last few days. And, having mulled over your assertions for so long have all concluded with this thought:
The title of my article should demolish the argument "Emulation = illegal game piracy"
Nintendo's evil business practices should unequivocally be abolished. As such, emulation, regardless of context or legality, is your moral obligation. A form a protest. Civil disobedience. That's the crux of my argument.
