Cute take, and while I appreciate the sentiment, I think he’s fine where he is.

Exactly my pick.

I was born in the 90s, so in the mid 2000's I was peak impressionable.

Honestly, I recall hearing the same thing about the Sega decades ago. Aside from (allegedly) Nintendo, it’s always been “common knowledge” that the consoles are wildly unprofitable.

Whenever Tesla comes to my campus to solicit students, the main selling point isn’t hours, benefits, future prospects.

Full version here, literally opens with the tired iPhone criticism.

I think this has caused me to not claim as many “free” things, so generally now when I get the emails, even for something free, I’m at least aware I recently ‘bought’ a free thing.

Sweeny’s long game is both incredibly obvious, and wildly esoteric.

I don’t know what I’d do if Nintendo stopped shoveling games into the eShop like coal into a hungry train engine every week.

Thank you. I legit could not enjoy this story without knowing if he was one of those kind of assholes.

I think that box has already been opened. Without actually punishing people for being openly racist, which cause “free speech” there’s no repercussions* for the 95% of the shit they say. They’ve learned there is an audience for the worst filth, and if anyone says anything they can just cry about Biden’s Cancel Culture…

I’d settle for spamming the button (something I do anyways) if it means no on screen indicator ever.

Carlson’s troll game is better. He’s less likely to show weakness or admit wrongdoing. He can say things which a literal child could tell you are factually 100% incorrect, and he’ll be on the next thing before anyone has a chance to call him out.

The country has been Gerrymandered for so long, and representation is so broken (particularly electoral college/senate), that they no longer have to appeal across the aisle, or even to moderates.

I once tried to park a delivery vehicle in a parking garage that was too low. The refrigeration unit on top scraped one of those lower clearance cement lines on the ceiling on a bump and I realized I fucked up. I managed to escape without any notable damage. (There was no visible clearance bar)

On PS4 there was a way to completely disable the notification, so an incredibly delayed sound would be the only feedback (not great for knowing if the screenshot took, but eh). Does PS5 not have that option?

Honestly, a lot of PC ports felt like controllers were mandatory for over a decade now. Sure everything is technically playable, but a lot of them aren’t very good.

Two thoughts.

“Delta and Coca-Cola and Major League Baseball need to realize that about half of the country is Republicans and we’re not very happy with them right now,”

Law of large numbers would probably save them even without any mitigations in place.
