I have one of these and a dumper.

I took all of the games we have and dumped them onto an SD card. I use it for the second switch we have that our kid uses.

No messing about with swapping cartridges and taking a chance on losing one, which has already happened once.

I ended up with a V2 which is even better. No wear and tear from popping the cartridge in and out and all the games on it.

Aside from the “inconvenience” of having to push the button to roll through the games, it was worth it.

It’s not, but you only pointed out xenophobia as the cause.

I’m opening the door a little and pointing out that it’s much bigger than just xenophobia that’s all.

Having lived there for almost 10 years, most of it as a “local”, they also have a very real problem of foreigners coming there and destroying apartments or racking up debt and just leaving.

There’s more going on obviously, like the xenophobia you mention, and just straight up racism, and probably other things. So it’s a little more than just a cultural problem but that is a decent chunk of it.

I’m curious about the stick drift thing.

I have 3 controllers, two of which I’ve had since maybe 6 months after the PS5 was released since that’s about how long it took me to get one.

Both controllers have a few hundred hours on them, neither have stick drift. The third one doesn’t have nearly the amount of hours on it since my kid spilled juice on it and I procrastinated for a few months to take it apart and clean it lol so I’m not considering that one.

Is it really that bad or did I just get lucky? These things are almost 4 years old and still work perfectly fine.

Just a note for those interested in the local play aspect of it like I was.

You don’t need to create an account to play the game locally.

You can just exit out of the first menu and play the scenarios that are available.

I was considering that, but was reluctant to do it without any advice since I don’t know enough about the Deck and how it works other than it runs on a variant of Arch.

After your comment I did try it and it worked.

Thank you!

On a bus from El Paso to Phoenix someone smoked a joint in the bus bathroom and got dumped on the side of the highway immediately after.

Two hours later on that same bus trip the bus got raided by immigration and I got into an argument with the officer that wouldn’t accept my ACTIVE, UNEXPIRED Military ID as a valid form of ID and started yelling at me for my passport (I have a Spanish last name). I threw my passport at him and told him to fuck off before I got my command group involved with his. I don’t know how that worked but he got real quiet and left me alone immediately after that lol. There were several people that were pulled off of that bus that night. It was overall pretty shitty.

Edit: just realized you said US based. Tuta is not US based so that might not work for you. Sorry about that.

Tutanota (now just Tuta) allows you to use your domain. I use it, it doesn’t support external clients (Outlook, Thunderbird, etc.) but they do have Android, Linux, Windows (maybe Mac too) clients.

It’s also cheap.

I’ve been using it for a few years now, it works for me.

You can get a free account to check it out first and if you like it just upgrade to get the personal domain usage and increased storage limit.

Ahh ok, that makes more sense. To be fair though, I rarely saw any Subarus when I lived down south, but once I moved out west they are pretty much all over. So it’s not beyond the realm of having different distributions of cars in different areas.

There are Mazda 5’s for sale near where I live in the US. Where do you live in the US that they aren’t available?

Looks like Asphalt 9 was already grabbed by someone.

So uhhh, what kind of headset is it?

It’s actually being pushed as “broken” for 6.10 but should hopefully be completely available in 6.11.

Really? I’ve never actually noticed one.

Maybe because of the ad blocking stuff I use on my phone.

Waze works well also.

Edit: I’m getting a lot of down votes and just wanted to clarify that I have never seen an ad in Waze.

I 100% believe people saying there are a lot of ads. I think the way that I have my phone setup is why I’m not getting ads.

Will definitely have to look into the others mentioned here.

Exactly this.

Just because you wrote your documentation a certain way, doesn’t automatically mean that you feel a certain way about any particular group, or that your users are primarily a certain gender. It may just be writing what pronoun you are most familiar with.

In this particular case, we can see that the author didn’t exactly make the best case for himself.

However, there was never a problem to begin with until the person that requested the change also accused the the author of assuming that the user/dev of the OS is male.

If that little bit of accusation would have been left out, and they just put a note like “grammatical correction” it may have just been accepted and moved on. Instead they asked for a change while accusing the author of feeling a certain way.

There literally wasn’t a problem.

Until the person that asked for the correction literally assumed that said dev was assuming. Since thats what they said in their comment.

So I can understand being a little pissy at someone pointing to you and accusing you of assuming something. It’s stupid.

I may have been a little irritated too if someone accused me of assuming something. I wouldn’t have reacted the same, but I would have been clear that I in no way assume anything related to gender identity.

If the person wouldn’t have put that assumption into their comment, the change may have been more likely to happen.

Instead they assumed something and got push back which turned into the scene we see now.

Ass u me… I mean it’s pretty clear.

I understand that, but the whole point behind it was them making an assumption about something and proposing a change because they didn’t like their term that the dev used. Yet there was LITERALLY nothing wrong with the term.

The guy definitely made an ass of himself with his responses.

Like I said, both of them are idiots over this. It was pointless to make an issue out of it to begin with, and then then the dev making it even worse didn’t help.

To be fair, it’s also kinda dumb to point out something as an issue when it clearly wasnt, and saying “assuming the user/developer if the OS is a male” means that the person complaining is assuming that this dev was assuming something because he used the word he.

The issue was that the person decided that it bothered them so much that they needed to ask the dev to change it.

This has idiots on both sides written all over. Why is that person being nitpicky over something so stupid. Women use she/her in their writing all the time, just like men use he/him, and people with other pronouns are more likely to use what is familiar to them such as they/them.

I say this as someone with a child that has been reading books to them and noticed that an authors gender and the pronouns they use seem to correlate more often than not. Unless the book focuses on topics of or relating to understanding and accepting the differences in people. Both people are dumb in this scenario.

Edit: let me put things into a perspective that maybe some of you can understand. Let’s take anything related to gender or being PC out of the equation.

I ask you to make a change to your documentation because I don’t like the way you said something, then accuse you of being or believing a certain kind of way because of the grammar you used.

That is what this person did.

Now let’s assume (yeah I said it) for the sake of my argument that the person doesn’t feel any kind of way about the thing that they were accused of being. I’m pretty sure that person might just take offence to that. Which in this case is exactly what happened.

Had there just been a change that said something along the lines of just a simple grammatical correction. It probably would have be pushed and ignored.

In this case the dev definitely seemed like an ass, but that’s not the point. The point is the whole fucking situation is stupid.
