  • This does not excuse having a power button on the bottom, thats just ridiculous.

    Asking in earnest, but why is a power button on the bottom so egregious? I’ve owned various Macbooks over the last decade and I rarely use the power button - and when I do in recent years it’s for TouchID. I leave my MBP open regularly, but have my battery settings set to automatically turn off the monitor and put the computer into sleep mode. I’m just not getting why it’s such a big deal and it’s mostly coming off as “grr apple bad, no like”










  • List of a few of Nintendo’s new IPs from the last 15 or so years:

    • Arms
    • Good Job!
    • 1-2 Switch
    • Dillon
    • Splatoon
    • Snipperclips
    • Pushmo
    • Steel Diver
    • Fluidity
    • Nintendoland

    Just because you aren’t buying/playing them doesn’t mean they aren’t making them. Let’s also not ignore the amount of time to develop a game has increased significantly or how gamers overwhelmingly choose to buy games from well-known IP. They are a company and need to pay their employees. I’m not a fan of Nintendo’s litigation practices, but I’m also not a fan of how whiny and bitchy gamers have become. If they aren’t whining and or bitching, they are harassing developers and actors.





  • Anyway, my gripe with the age talk wasn’t that age doesn’t matter; it was that Biden was being hammered on it as if Trump is somehow better in that regard.

    Pretty much this. People kept harping about Biden’s issues with speaking due to his age while somehow completely ignoring that Trump makes no sense in his blathering rambling at any point and hasn’t made any sense in years, but I wonder how much of that was manufactured by MAGA hats because age is literally the only sane argument they had against Biden. Reading transcripts of Trump’s bull shit was mind-numbing and he’s pushing 80 too.
