Going to rant a bit but this guy on my team does this all the time and to say it’s a pet peeve is an understatement.

I’m not talking about, we started talking at the same time. No, I’m talking about I’ve gotten 3 words out and he starts talking. Half the time he’s saying exactly what I’m already saying or he’s going to say something that isn’t true.

I think he does it because he’s insecure and he thinks this is a way he can appear more correct or like he’s evolving in his career. When it’s really just showing that he’s arrogant and think he’s showing off that he knows more than I do or that he’s learned everything he needs to know from me.

 

This shit grinds my gears so fucking hard.

It’s ironic considering their early days in gaming. They were targeted by Universal over a BS lawsuit for using “Kong” in Donkey Kong and him being a gorilla like King Kong.

Now they’re pulling the same crap on smaller people/businesses and also working with the very company who did the lawsuit to bring their games to the movies.

This was my comment. My dad and I felt that same way but my grandmother just couldn’t understand how we could.

If I never needed to eat, that’d be wonderful. No more getting fat ever again and I’d probably be 100 times healthier.

Someone corrected me the other day on here that it’s not all games that are doing that but only some will be a game key and others will be the full game. I’m assuming that all first party titles will be the game key since this is largely about piracy and not allowing people to easily dump the game from the cartridge like people did for the Switch.

Reminds me of Crimson Skies! I miss that game and it’s a shame we never got a sequel.

Yeah April fools already passed. Hopefully Microsoft got their days mixed up lol.

Wait so there will be two different types of cartridges? Some that do hold game data and others that don’t and are just the digital key?

I was under the impression this would be all cartridges for the Switch 2.

They made a change that the cartridges no longer hold the game data but will require a download of the game and the cartridge is just a key for the digital game.

That will stop game dumping from the cartridge. But with a jailbroken console, we can still get the game that way.

The benefit of these is that they actively dry your filament as it rolls into the printer. At least mine does that which has been great to reduce the time needed to prep for my prints. Mine lets you set the temperature and it will keep that as it rolls in.

I heard about the food dryers but this was my choice also because I have limited space in my smaller home. This little box is about the size of a spool and sits behind my printer and I have it automated to turn on when I turn on my printer too.

 

I got a Dell Latitude 7400 2 in 1 from my job they were going to ewaste. I daily drive KDE Neon on it and I love it. However, one of its two USB type C ports isn’t working for charging or data transfer. I inspected the port but found no obvious damage. How can I troubleshoot and fix this? I’ve searched YouTube and online sites but haven’t found helpful guidance.

 
 

I get it if it’s at a place like Starbucks when you verbally say it. Everyone has a special way of spelling their name and you can’t know the spelling based on how it was said.

But when my name is literally written out in the previous email and you are replying to that email…bruh.

Makes me want to passive aggressively write theirs incorrectly too.

 

Just thinking about collector’s cups like limited edition Super Bowl memorabilia or whatever.

I realize that I prefer to use them rather than keep them pristine. I have a Chiefs winner shirt an ex gave me and I just wear it despite her saying it’d probably be worth something someday lol

 

I swear off so many products and services for no other reason than their obnoxious, repetitive commercials.

Off top of my head, I will never buy Old Spice anything because their ads are so repetitive and obnoxious. I feel disgust when I see it in the store and actively avoid it for no other reason than their spam campaigns.

Same for USAA, Native body wash, AmEx, Liberty insurance (that forced catchy theme), and more.

Anyone else feel the same way? Or have you caught yourself getting suckered in because of ads’ subconscious shenanigans?

 

I’m sure there are a few hurdles, but wondering what is the biggest reason that keeps us back at this moment as the most pressing thing. Is it that the technology just isn’t there yet? Or is it because of legal complications, international treaties and all that? Is it just not financially feasible to do at this present time with the technology we do have? That we could do it, in theory, but the ROI is too low?

 

This is 100% free and so is shipping through the USPS.

This is the article from the FTC on this (and also some tips to avoid possible scams) and the link inside to begin the order https://consumer.ftc.gov/consumer-alerts/2024/10/how-order-free-covid-test-kits-federal-government-and-avoid-scammers

They limit 4 per household and do keep in mind that these tests do expire, but it seems wise for everyone to still have some on hand if someone believes they have symptoms. If nothing else, you’ll have some to share with friends if the expiration is close so they don’t go to waste.

I was looking at a car on a local dealership’s website last night and saw that there was a mention of “2 days” or “250 miles” and you could return a car that you bought from them. I came back to the website this morning and I’m not seeing that anymore. I’m not 100% positive where I saw it, but I know the general area and not seeing it there anymore. It seemed to be under the car’s description for each car they had in their inventory.

I used site:dealershipdomain.com in Google to search for “2 days” and “250” and it finds results but not finding this wording specifically on the pages listed in the search results.

Is there another way to search for this on a specific site? Am I doing that incorrectly?

Edit: thanks for the tips, everyone! Sorry, should have mentioned I was using CTRL + F to search when on the page.

I found one mention of it on another site linking here, and now it makes me wonder if that’s where I saw it.

But either way, kind of found what I was looking for. Thanks for the help, everyone!

 

On a Xbox controller, do you use just your index finger to alternate between LB and L and RB and R? Or do you use your index and middle fingers placed respectively on each individual trigger? Or do you have a completely different setup?

Likewise with PlayStation’s control scheme annd its respective control scheme and controllers with similar layouts with 4 triggers.
