Agreed. Searching through PS’s shop is a mockery of efficiency and even if you know what you’re looking for, typing in letter by letter is still a fairly painful experience. Consoles eshops could take a note from Netflix and Hulu.

A little off-topic but relevant: back in 2012 I had a tumor that affects less than 1% of the population. It was benign, but by its sheer size, the surgeon told me it would have killed me within the week (he was going away for 5 days, so he gave me to another surgeon because he said I couldn’t afford to wait until he…

“Ovoid”? Seriously, I gotta ask - was that word just in your repertoire or did you use a thesaurus for that one? Cause I used my little “define” app and cackled my ass off when I read the definition “egg-shaped”. Lawl! Just wanted to know if this was a word you had off the top of your head and if so, where you found…

For example, I’ve had night terrors since I was little (I guess I never really grew…

Back when you could rent video games (we had a really awesome video and game rental store down the street when I was a kid - they also sold Pokemon cards), my parents let me rent lots of games rather than buy them (my mother had a rule that I had to beat a game before she’d buy me another one, which is how I ended up…

This is, unfortunately, a reality for many jobs - even ones where dire importance is leveled upon delivery and doing things right the first time. Yet egos and office hierarchy are put before the efficiency and efficacy of the product or service. I used to work at a Medicare insurance broker and it was vitally…
