- Comment on 8BitDo Pro 3 Bluetooth announced with swappable magnetic ABXY 36 minutes ago:
I’d say the Switch 2 Pro controller would be a great option for you if it wasn’t a repairability nightmare and expensive. Analog triggers and feels really nice
- Comment on 8BitDo Pro 3 Bluetooth announced with swappable magnetic ABXY 37 minutes ago:
The swappable buttons don’t include the switches do they? Gimmicky if not. They’re four buttons in a diamond. You can just imagine whichever layout you really don’t need to SEE them. At least swappable switches would be good repairability and offer different feels.

You’d have to be able to argue in court that you had some other reason for having loose razors in your pockets.
You would probably lose. I mean trust me I don’t like cops, but you totally lose.

The number of people who have three homes on this country I doubt is a huge number. And to be honest most of them are probably right-leaning anyway.
- Comment on Grandma is on her own 1 week ago:
Nah fam you got three homes you can pay up

I’d sacrifice your family’s hunting cabin if it helps house more people. Find a sixth person or something.
It’s an edge case that shouldn’t hold up societal progress.
- Comment on Employees at Amazon headquarters were asked on Monday to volunteer their time to the company’s warehouses to assist with grocery delivery 1 week ago:
No, there are no Kroger brands in my market (Florida) at all. Not anymore, they left decades ago.
They’re using us as a test market for the delivery-only format.
- Comment on Breaking the generational barriers 1 week ago:
Exactly.
Concrete in the toilet, now that’s an idea.

Jesus that sounds awful.
I’ve had a decent experience with Kroger. They don’t have any stores in my market, just a big warehouse. A Kroger employee on a Kroger refrigerated van delivers it all at once and always on time.

It’s a group but of course considering the name they will be easier able to charge anyone supporting Palestine
- Comment on Hmmm who could it possibly be? 1 week ago:
To be fair it it could very easily be a contractor for Hershey’s, or a vendor that works on/sells their equipment.
- Comment on Which instance should i choose when i share a link? 1 week ago:
Just copy the URL. Maybe if you’re DMing someone or replying to one specific person choose their instance.
Otherwise there’s just no perfect answer, keep it simple and just copy that URL.

I mean the CD does work. But not with all players… Not sure what makes some work and some not. Laser wavelength?

It’s interesting how the pict-rs size doesn’t seem to be all that tied to the size of the instance.
My instance is tiny compared to .zip, but this is what mine is sitting at:
- Comment on Windows seemingly lost 400 million users in the past three years — official Microsoft statements show hints of a shrinking user base 2 weeks ago:
Yeah. Outside of work most people aren’t using proper PCs as much. They have their phone or tablet, which serves for most of what the average person does. (Watch videos and do things on browsers)
It’s increasingly just business users and a small number of gaming enthusiasts.

- Comment on Finally paid off my Costco hotdog 🙏 3 weeks ago:
They generally don’t no.
They get commission from the stores (because quite likely they wouldn’t have made the sale if the option wasn’t available), and also late fees

- Comment on New report suggests third-party Switch 2 game sales are "below estimates" 3 weeks ago:
I mean they’re clearly not. Codes are one time use and forever bound to you, these can be sold/traded.
I’m not saying they’re good. Just that there is an advantage (and disadvantages)
- Comment on New report suggests third-party Switch 2 game sales are "below estimates" 3 weeks ago:
Yeah, they’re not tied to accounts or consoles. Any console with the card in will be able to play the game. You can trade or sell them.
Codes and boxes are just digital purchases with plastic waste attached and no further benefit.
They’re shittier than real physical games, but they still do have that one advantage over digital games, just with the drawback that you still have a physical cartridge you have to switch out and carry around. It’s a mixed bag.
