Could you honestly tell me how I’m being toxic please. I think you’re misunderstanding me and I genuinely want to know why you think this.
- Comment on Where should I ask for help deleting an account for a Japanese website? 4 months ago:
Thanks. I can’t find anything like that. Here’s some screenshots of what the profile settings look like. These seem to be the whole sites profile/accounts options. Maybe there’s just no option.

Oh ok, thanks. Not sure why some people are downvoting me for not knowing Japanese though. I’ll try to see if I can find those symbols on the site, but so far the furthest account option I’ve been able to find is to change the password.

I’m toxic? I’m sorry, how?
- Comment on Where should I ask for help deleting an account for a Japanese website? 4 months ago:
I think they support it now in Firefox, but didn’t used to; they just don’t currently support it with Japanese as far as I know. I’m sure I was looking at a Chinese or French website some months ago and it worked with Firefox’s built-in page translator.

What is 消去? DeepL translate says it means “Elimination”. I’m not sure what you want me to do with this.

Fair enough, but I gave my reason in another comment, so you should read that if you want to know.
- Comment on Where should I ask for help deleting an account for a Japanese website? 4 months ago:
Yeah, scrubbing it like that is usually a last resort, I generally try to delete the profile, and if I can’t, I scrub it with unidentifiable information. If I already happen to know from the policy that they keep your data for a period of time after deletion, I scrub it before deleting.
- Comment on Where should I ask for help deleting an account for a Japanese website? 4 months ago:
Nah, I can’t get the Firefox translating to work. And websites not having a built-in account deletion option is the reason many sites offer (usually buried in their policy) the option to have it manually deleted, only if you directly contact them via email. I’ve done this with a few websites before and it’s a pretty easy process.
- Comment on Where should I ask for help deleting an account for a Japanese website? 4 months ago:
I didn’t say anything about them sending me emails.
- Comment on Where should I ask for help deleting an account for a Japanese website? 4 months ago:
It’s not good to ever keep random accounts abandoned. It’s just good security and often privacy hygiene that most people don’t practice. I already have over 100 accounts total across the internet, and am planning to skim that number down drastically. It’s especially important security & privacy hygiene, because if you leave dozens of accounts abandoned and the services experience a data breach, the fact that your data is now out there is partially your own fault, and since we’re on the english-speaking side of the internet, I doubt we’re going to hear about a data breach for some random Japanese site.

I don’t think the article was trying to imply that they weren’t already in use in electric cars, just that they would be better for them.

No worries. Thanks so much for uploading it. Glad I reached so many people before the time.
- Comment on Please contribute your 3DS and Wii U SpotPass data before it's too late! 7 months ago:
Please forgive me. That information was wrong, the data does not stay after factory resetting. I’m editing my comment to clarify this.

I used the modded method so I’m not sure I can help you personally, but the people over at Discord will be very willing to help. Here is an invite to the Discord discord.gg/bVpaR9EY so you can get help; I’m sure they can help you. Otherwise, there is another method that doesn’t involve Python, but it only works on the New 3DS or New 2DS though. I don’t know if the method is any more or less difficult, though.

Hey. Gotten around to it yet? Just checking in with a few of the “I’ll do it later posts”.
- Comment on Please contribute your 3DS and Wii U SpotPass data before it's too late! 7 months ago:
Hey, you looked further into getting it done yet? I’ve had a lot of “I’ll do it later” posts, so just checking in on some people.
- Comment on Please contribute your 3DS and Wii U SpotPass data before it's too late! 7 months ago:
Hey, just checking in and seeing if you remembered to make your dump yesterday? Just in case you forgot.
- Comment on Please contribute your 3DS and Wii U SpotPass data before it's too late! 7 months ago:
Don’t mean to bug you, but did you end up getting it done? Just wanting to check in.
- Comment on Please contribute your 3DS and Wii U SpotPass data before it's too late! 7 months ago:
Note that if you got the console second hand (even if it was factory reset), apparently, the SpotPass data stays on the console in the background, so it may be of more help than you think.

Thanks a lot! Don’t forget about the time-zone information so you don’t miss it. April 8 at 4PM PDT (Pacific Daylight Time)
- Comment on Please contribute your 3DS and Wii U SpotPass data before it's too late! 7 months ago:
Worth a dump, I think. I dumped my modded secondary console which is an OG 2DS which I also hardly ever use, just in case there was something there.
- Comment on Please contribute your 3DS and Wii U SpotPass data before it's too late! 7 months ago:
Probably not. Unless you bought it second-hand? Apparently the data still remains on the system even if it’s reset, so if you bought your console pre-owned, or was given it by a friend, there may still be a large amount of data still there in the background.

This isn’t correct, you’re getting confused between StreetPass and SpotPass. Yes, SpotPass is a wireless tech, but it has nothing to do with connecting to other 3DS’s or Wii U’s (and the Wii U did not have StreetPass; only SpotPass). A StreetPass-like feature would be pointless on a Wii U because you couldn’t take it out of the house without it losing range from the console. The 3DS on the other hand, had both features. So yes, the SpotPass did provide you with “DLC’s”, but it did not have the same features as StreetPass.
Also, the users’ profile and their favourite game was shown in the friends list, which was not a part of SpotPass. I can’t remember for sure if you needed a Nintendo Network account for adding friends, but I do know that you can add friends offline through the local network, but this does not use the SpotPass network, as the SpotPass network requires internet (and most games which had SpotPass warned you of this prior to activation).
The local wireless connection used in the friends list is the same connection used in local multiplayer games, the same as how it works on the Nintendo Switch.
