That’s what 35+ years of consumer goodwill and quality game design buys you.

It’s also not 1996 anymore. Trapping your game on to a physical console in 2020 is completely absurd and any other publisher or console maker would be screamed about for months until they changed it.

The switch is a portable console. Portable things get broken more often. Trapping your game that you may have spent hundreds of hours in on the physical console in 2020 is completely absurd and any other publisher or console maker that did it would be roasted over an open flame.

I think Nintendo gets away with a lot that other other publishers or console makers would get rightly castigated for. 

I know that the US government, due to heavy influencing from the Tax prep lobby, has made things needlessly complicated and horrible but is your SSN really the only thing that identifies who you are to the IRS? Seriously? At least for the CRA (Canadian version of the IRS) you have to have details about the previous…

Now my son is a picky eater because of a sensory issue. So its not the typical kid picky eater issue.

Also, if you think that corruption in government and political influence of corporations and money isn’t a significant part of why membership is at its lowest point ever, you’re delusional.

Are drawing the line of unacceptable behavior at “Calling for their extermination”? Is everything up to that line ok? What if they do it “jokingly”? Is that ok?

Did you read the article?

It’s a video game champ, and even if women weren’t part of any elite combat roles (they have been, throughout history), it’s a video game. It doesn’t need to exactly mirror reality.

“The best way to get rich is to be rich”

Consumption taxes are regressive if they are widely used. People with less money spend a far greater % of their income on buying things then rich people who park billions in to stock that just grow and grow until they die.

In Manitoba at least they legally have to advertise the out the door price (less sales tax, if I’m not mistaken). No hidden fees, title fees, dealership fees, axle grease fees, fuck you fees, etc etc.

I prefer a wooden toothpick - though I have used both a safety pin and a sim tray remover tool. I’m just paranoid that I’m going to bridge the pins and cause a problem! It was less of a concern before I had a USB C phone with the pins sitting out in the middle of the port.

Swap the cable is what I’ve done - I’ve had cables get what I can only assume are shorts in it - so if it moves it’ll disconnect. The most annoying one was the one that would work when you plugged it in while holding your phone, but if you put it down it would disconnect. And also, double check the lint - some cables…

If your phone used to charge with your cable, but now it’s not charging properly - you might want to check your charging port for pocket lint. A wooden toothpick works great!

I missed a word or two I think when I was reading it - not your fault. Mea Culpa and all that.

I completely misread that bit of your post! My bad - I didn’t realize that was what she was saying.

A hodgepodge of things. I have a PC I built, an LG G7 android phone, a windows laptop (ultrabook esque thing that looks like a macbook air - got it cheap refurbished!), and an iPad (because unfortunately they are still king of the tablet game).

So - your friend didn’t know any of the information associated with her account, got locked out, got BACK in despite not knowing that information - and it’s Apple that made the “garbage that shouldn’t be on the market”? I moved off of Apple years ago and never looked back but this seems like less of an Apple problem…
