Everytime this comes up I think about that Trump supporter who was married to an illegal immigrant and was shocked her husband got deported.

I know a number of people who thought the Wii U was an attachment for the Wii and not a separate console so you might be right about the name.

I wonder why e-scooters are banned on Scotland

That’s how I always felt about it. As long as I get paid, I don’t care what they do with the software.

Not sure when things changed but all I know is that when I bought mine years ago the Kobo site redirected me to Walmart and that’s where I had to buy it. My e-reader even displays the Walmart logo on it when I power it off.

Kobo was sold exclusively through Walmart in the US (at least when I bought my Kobo). I think they recently ended the partnership.

I could be entirely wrong about this but isn’t it in-universe lore that Elves don’t see the curvature of the world and that’s how they can see so far?

I don’t know how relevant this is to you but I was looking at getting a Boox since it would easily let me read my Kindle and Kobo books on a single device without any hassle. However, it achieves this by running their apps so the books are segregated. There’s no one library with all your books. Your Kindle books are only on the Kindle app, your Kobo books are only on the Kobo app, your library books are only on the Libby app.

It sounded really tedious to have to flip between a bunch of different apps to track all my books so I decided to just stick with Kobo.

Shit like this is why calling Republicans weird is resonating so well. You certainly can’t call someone who gets a politician’s name tattooed on their forehead normal.

This and the Nike ad have been the worst ads during the Olympics.

I bought a SteamDeck as a way to test and see what works and what doesn’t on Linux. So far all my games have run with no issues.

I’m likely going to be posting and searching through a lot of Linux forums as Win10 gets closer to EOL.

They’re protesting by threatening to do what they are already doing.

This is what I’m going to have to do as well since my computer isn’t compatible with Win11. The only thing I’m worried about is gaming.

I love the idea of karma police. It definitely sounds like the plot for an interesting movie.

Quest 64 really brings me back. I haven’t thought about that game in a long time.

As a programmer, I consider The User to be the enemy. No matter how thoroughly I seemingly test my code, the second the user gets their hands on it, it breaks left and right from all the crazy shit they do.

That is definitely way too invasive. Plugging something on to a Roku TV shouldn’t enable them to show you ads through that other device.

I was actually thinking about getting a Roku once too. Really dodged a bullet.

Exactly. I cut and paste all the time but I make sure I know what the code is doing first before I actually add the code.

My mom would get her left hand hit with a ruler if she was caught writing left-handed.

It sucks because I was looking forward to the game since I liked the first DD but after seeing all the micro transactions they added into a single player game I’m going to pass on it.
