It was the fact that they didn't show a new UI or added features to the base console. It's effectively only a Nintendo game player and nothing else where as previous consoles were also note taking apps and a calendar and you could doodle animations or even take photos on some of the DSs.

They added no other functionality to this console and left it with less than previous ones. It only plays the games and that's it.

At least a steam deck you can use a browser and watch videos on it too if you really wanted. The only reason to buy the switch is the games now which makes the price per game astronomical effectively.

You are gonna spend over $700 for a few first party games?

I'm just asking cause that's the cost, $500 console plus extra controller plus the games quickly blooms into nearly a $1000 purchase for a few games.

I just can't justify spending $250 per game I would play on it currently.

None its definitely the streamers who they want these in the hands of first.

loyalty

Play time hours not loyalty.

You haven't made a point

Me literally at my top comment in this chain.

Seems like it more directly supports prioritizing those that play for a living and gets content creators priority to start the paying marketing arm.

I don't have a money or the means to be considering a multi hundred dollar purchase when I am pushing back my tooth extraction.

You have decided who I am regardless of who I actually am in your head and its an impossible at worst and uphill battle at best that you don't deserve while treating me so poorly.

Don't be a jerk.

Because I made my point and you ignored it.

You are still ignoring it and adding things I have not said cause you refuse to accept that you might have misunderstood it.

No I was not I was saying that literally people already have to pay for these consoles. That is its own barrier. I made my point that this prioritizes streamers and marketers above. You are ignoring it.

Having to also pass a threshold of play hours is a secondary barrier and you are being aghressive with your fight against capitalism to act as if it is some shining beacon to base it on loyalty.

I owe you nothing and this is my last response while you aim to bark like this rather than communicate.

And being rude so that people don't respond is not a winning argument it's just confirming that people are better off not interacting with you.

You are having a different conversation than I am and it's not with this topic either.

No. They cost money that's a very core principle of our system. I'm asking isn't that enough of am incentive?

Don't be like that. You are trying to get a response from what you wished to have read and it's gross.

A willingness to pay would be it own priority I would think

Specifically aiming at people with free time?

It's definitely a bit dystopian to prioritize those that have the most time and money rather than just those that want to and have the means to purchase even if it's a reasonable way to handle a limited resource.
I still don't know what to do much about the mass scalper parasite that is its own dystopian touch.

And steam just checked that you had made a purchase for the first 48 hours of preorders.

Oh man the N64 graphics popularity seems to be really coming to a head.
I'm not against it but I want the joy of a spyro like game not the graphics.

 

This is from the same RocketJump of Freddie Wong YouTube fame and will be having apparently a very limited (as of now) one day running theaters on March 7th.

I think it looks so interesting. I love me some indie sci-fi films.

 
 

The amount of people who are all giving "reasons" why they are gonna be ok to treat others with contempt and apathy towards any suffering just means you wanted an excuse to not care all along, not that you are morally superior.

You will still look like an asshole to anyone that isn't informed and to the people who didn't agree with you in the first place.

If you actually care you keep trying, stop pretending minute crusades are anything but.

 

I mean seriously. What the heck is this?

None of the boxes I clicked on helped and it just kept making more dancing hippos appear each time.

 

These have to be the least accurate things I have ever seen.

The rectangular one is accurate or accurate enough and has been what I used but I noticed files all had cutouts for these round hygrometers...

Well from my 6 pack 1 is within a margin of error to even be useful.

I get they aren't expensive but seems like a waste of money for this bad.

 

Which is to say, not very far on this at all but I think I have a good idea on how have my cake and eat it too for desiccant for my spools.

I am finding I can't get the humidity below about 50% in my AMS and the silica I am using needs constant refreshing.

Well it seems there is stuff called activated alumina that is pretty good and honestly about the same costs as silica beads, but I need to be able to put it in the oven to refresh it. Which doesn't work well with my 3d printed desiccant holders.

Insert, cheap tea strainers.
It seems I can get ones that are 4cm in width by 6cm in height that are made out of stainless steel that I can actually put straight in the oven.

So, I am working on getting the parts and items but was wondering if anyone else has done this or have any suggestions before I start grabbing stuff?

 

Zone 7B.... I think it's been a bit warm out.

So, I'm trying to print some older models from thingiverse and I have discovered that basically all the files I want to print have glaring flaws in them.

Internal free floating structures, connector pieces and holes that are the exact same size... So on and so forth...

Do I need to learn a software like CAD or Blender to fix these? I seem to be able to do some basic stuff in Orca Slicer but it honestly seems like as much of a pain to modify the parts there as it would be to use a real software.

Is there one that's easier? I think I messed around with SketchUp once upon a time.

I am worried this feels like opening a can of worms just so that I can make a thing that already exists in a dozen forms better.

 

Kamala Harris was seen by many as simply continuity Joe Biden, a president who has long had a negative approval rating. When asked last month what she would have done differently from Biden, Harris answered: “There is not a thing that comes to mind in terms of – and I’ve been a part of most of the decisions that have had impact.”

There was no clear vision, no shared rage with the American people at the state of the country: if there was anything deeply wrong with the US, her campaign seemed to suggest, it was the existence of the Trumpist movement, and voting for Harris could finally turn the page on that.

The part that the Democrats missed again and again is that the issue with America is not just that people were and are willing to vote for Trump. It was never gonna be over just because he wasn't elected. Despite that being the message from large amounts of DNC leaders and commentators.

We can blame voters all we want but at millions of people that becomes a concept more than a specific person or group to blame. There are problems that need to be solved with more than status quo and centrism. And it doesn't start and end with Trump.

I hope we remember that as we see more of him than ever.

 

Truly a pretty terrible place for any kind of social activity.

People here are super self righteous and unwavering in their beliefs, quick to insult others and be generally bitchy, pedantic and quick to dogpile. Worst of all while still usually slightly wrong about a thing, but unwilling to hear it.

It's basically the worst parts of reddit users where we have boiled it down to the most affluent or socially insecure.

Even if it's as simple as a question people jump to defend their position with insults rather than answer it cause they get worried the person might be confused and it's best to just make sure it's a closed community as quick as possible.

This isn't an open community it's a private gated one where everyone jumped the fence and is scared that the wrong person might have come in with them.

Condescending is not welcoming.
Upvoting cause they are your in group isn't community.
Berating outcasts cause you at least don't feel like them is still bullying.

 

Man, what else have I missed?
