- Comment on 50 percent off and buy 1 get 1 free are the same deal. 5 days ago:
And you still have to buy an even number. Also, only if all items are the same price.
- Comment on 🚦 Don't walk... be gay! 1 week ago:
No, you just need to come to terms with your urge to be a woman.
It is more difficult for gay men who have to accept the fact that women are not gross.
- Comment on Mozilla is shutting down Pocket, their read-it-later and content discovery app, and Fakespot, their browser extension that analyzes the authenticity of online product reviews. 2 months ago:
I don’t want to sync my bookmarks. The sites I want bookmarked on my desktop are not the same as the sites I want bookmarked on my phone nor the sites I want bookmarked on my work laptop.
- Comment on Mozilla is shutting down Pocket, their read-it-later and content discovery app, and Fakespot, their browser extension that analyzes the authenticity of online product reviews. 2 months ago:
As an occasional user, I am sad to see it go. Are there any other sites out there to maintain a list of links that I may find useful in the future?
- Comment on Nintendo is Trying to Stop You From Filing Lawsuits Against Them With New EULA Amendment 2 months ago:
Exactly why they put it. You would first need to win a trial to get the clause voided and then win another trial to get actual damages or you can go to arbitration and get a modest settlement. Most people will take the latter.
- Comment on Nintendo is Trying to Stop You From Filing Lawsuits Against Them With New EULA Amendment 2 months ago:
What sort of half assed reporting came up with this story? This is not a new policy. If I remember right, Nintendo added a forced arbitration clause to their EULA about 10 years ago (I would try to find an exact date, but Google is flooded with articles parroting this story).
It came up with regards to Joy-Con drift in 2017: law.justia.com/cases/federal/…/21/
Should companies be allowed to force arbitration as a shield against all law suits? Hell fucking no, but their lawyers say they can, so any company with a EULA written by a half decent lawyer includes the wording.
At this point, the only reason anyone would complain that a company includes the clause is rage bait.
- Comment on Ace Attorney became a hit IP only because Capcom pushed past the “failure” of first game, according to former dev 3 months ago:
I cannot speak about the quality of the port (I played it on the DS), but Capcom ports Ace Attorney to every system they can.
Windows (Steam): …steampowered.com/…/Phoenix_Wright_Ace_Attorney_T…
- Comment on Stonemaier Games sues the Trump administration over tariffs and their impact on the tabletop gaming industry. 3 months ago:
The article does not get into detail, but I assume Stonemaier Games is going to argue that the President does not have the power to impose this type of tariff. The company is probably hoping that the judge will stay the tariff until the case can be argued. If this only buys the company enough time to refill their US warehouse without paying a tariff, they could come out ahead.
- Comment on Every time you eat, you're trusting many strangers to not have tampered with your food 3 months ago:
As far as I know, all media age-appropriate ratings in the US are industry self regulation. The government has threatened action but never actually stepped in.
- Comment on Nintendo Switch 2 Launches on June 5th Worldwide; 1080p Screen With 120 FPS and HDR Support, Docked Mode 4K Resolution Support Confirmed 4 months ago:
Nintendo US website. Mario Kart has an MSRP of $79.99. Donkey Kong has an MSRP of $69.99.
- Comment on PS5 Pro sales ‘have fallen behind PS4 Pro in the US 5 months ago:
I assume that the PS5 Pro is great for its target audience: people who care about getting the best possible graphics on a console. They bought it, they tried it, they loved it, and they praised it. The issue with the PS5 Pro is that not everyone fits into that niche. For people who are not playing on giant 4K TVs, what is the benefit? What does it provide that a regular PS5 (or even a PS4) does not? Sony has not provided an answer, from what I have seen.
- Comment on After Era of Bloat, Veteran Video-Game Developers Are Going Smaller 9 months ago:
Uncharted and Last of Us are first party Sony games. If they were to say that a game can still be enjoyable without cutting edge graphics no one would want to buy the latest PlayStation iteration.
