do people still use these?

No

Boo

This is just based on long, distant memories, but I think you can actually fish up the bomb fish and get water bombs from them.

Chooses 5 to be as far away from both poles as possible

“So you’re saying you’re not sure whether you want to rape or murder the kids?”

First Amazon, then Oracle, now Meta. All heavily invested in AI.

The same reason half of Europe has closed shops on Sunday, worker protection.

That sounds more like countries enforcing a religious preference (day of rest on Sunday for church) than worker protection. I suppose it could be branded as secular, but so can France’s ban on wearing hijabs in the name of laïcité.

Just Andrew of Nonceshire now

YOU WILL DEFEND YOUR CORPORATE OVERLORDS.

But then not as many people would fill the comment section with answers and/or ridicule to drive up engagement that injects OP’s brain with those sweet dopamines.

Messi. He visited the white house not too long ago as PR for the world cup, and also to highlight the diplomatic ties between Trump and Javier Milei.

By “the FBI scanned”, they probably mean “We told Kash Patel that there was a six pack of Miller hidden somewhere in the plane and let him have at it.”

KeePassXC is the best FOSS option, but you’ll need to figure out self hosting if you want to sync the database between devices.

Poor enough to prefer to shit at work when I can get paid for it and not use up my own TP, but rich enough to buy decent TP for myself at home.

The early COVID times were another matter.

I’m still a bit skeptical, if only because the Steam Frame still won’t solve the issues a lot of people have about limited space to use VR, the associated cost, and just VR’s overall utility.

The current economy sucks, a lot of folks can’t afford more than one or two dedicated gaming devices, and VR is a hard sell when PC and handheld gaming will always get preference. It’s not dead and it won’t be going anywhere, but I don’t see it evolving out of “niche” status anytime soon.

Supposedly it’s to make it so that no one wants to steal it, which I guess is a problem in some parts of the world where even shitty toilet paper is coveted.

I was hoping that this was going to be the “With this character’s death…” message instead.

Reddit imploded and I never went back, simple as.

Really excited for the randomizer mode, will try that out once it’s ready

It’s not a game key card release, the box would specify it on the front if it was. Nintendo (so far) has been releasing all of their own games fully on cartridge (insomuch as any physical game comes “complete” these days, before patches and post-launch content)
