  The reason those games are so popular is that they’re inherently exploitative. I have no issues with predatory app developers being priced out of business.

  Correct.

  It’s hard to care about people who develop games to encourage and monetize on gambling addictions.

  I don’t understand bot posting discussion questions that OP can’t participate in.

  You need to get legal representation and let your lawyer handle this. Don’t engage with anyone about the situation until you do.

  From what it sounds like you don’t really have any legal recourse to get your money back, so you’re probably just going to have to end up dropping the issue.

  NTA, but man, I know a surprising number of women who were told they’d never have kids because of pcos that got pregnant like <6 months after being told.

  That’s the point that’s being made.

  I mean, true AI isn’t really a thing yet. People have been using AI wrong for a very long time now. Even ChatGPT isn’t real AI.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why is it usually advised to power off your computer to have Bluetooth work again if it stopped working after a kernel update?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  You’re just trying to get the device into a known good state.

  The truth is that it’s rarely worth trying to find the root cause of an issue unless it’s a frequent problem.

  Something somewhere went wrong. We don’t know if it’s a hardware or software issue, so we’ll try a solution that covers both.

  Powering the device off stops the flow of electricity, and waiting a few seconds makes sure that any capacitors (think of very tiny, very fast batteries) bleed off the power they’ve stored. Then turning it back on makes it go through the full startup process which is likely to result in a working state.

  Or we could all just move to nano and be less frustrated.
