I look forward to the future WiiUWiiU 🚨!

Maybe I am just an old nostalgic fart but I have games that I own that are over 30 years old that I still have access to and regularly play and that’s how I like it.

I personally don’t at all see any benefit to the consumer that subscription based gaming provides. Arguably you can access more games for less money, but if video streaming is anything to go by (increased prices, less content across more and more services, ads creeping back in etc), that value proposition won’t last long.

I don’t know if it counts but Red Dead Redemption introduced me to Liar Dice! Now I freakin’ love Liar Dice!

I don’t think there are that many bots here because of [reason 1], [reason 2], and [reason 3].

And I for one am certainly not a “goes against OpenAI use policy".

I am a plastic digesting mega organism apparently!

There are “fancy” (and of course expensive) places that specialise in high end cuts of meat - that serve fries as a standard side option.

This is similar to the allergy I have to layer below the earth’s crust…

Lots of good and relevant reading here:

Replace “Then don’t worry” with “If you really think about it you should definitely be worried” and this is my life.

excuse some people make to justify paying for it

console users want to justify using a console

Well that escalated quickly.

The ability to breathe underwater - or if that is too much of an upgrade to ask for, the ability to hold your breath for much longer periods of time so that we could spend significant time underwater.

Especially seeing as the planet’s surface is over two thirds water!

This picture is inaccurate as it is impossible to be both full of cheese and not be smiling.

I feel like Chaotic Evil should be the bed upside down AND at an angle.

Brussels sprouts in the airfryer are amazing - but pretty much any vegetables go well, are quick, easy and healthy. If healthy is not your thing, anything in the frozen aisle (chips, hash browns, onion rings, chicken nuggets and fish fingers, etc) are also incredibly easy and always work.

Refund automatically to who? Most gift card sales are fairly anonymous, and I much prefer that than having to give details out.

Except that movie is where those cliches began!

I am curious why it is considered such a terrible practice? A lot of people don’t want to spend time and effort renovating an old property (nor do they have the knowledge or experience to do it well) so there is a market for old but already “fixed up” houses and there are people that make a living doing just that.

I don’t know about that. I have been wearing the same semi expensive watch daily for over 10 years and there is not even a scratch on the face despite having bumped and knocked it countless times. Worth mentioning that a watch repairer can replace most parts to get it looking good as new relatively easily if it came down to it.

Sunglasses on the other hand, I also go cheap - but that’s because it is much easier to lose them then something attached to your wrist! Haha

We must move forward, not backward, upward, not forward, and always twirling, twirling, twirling towards freedom!

What items AREN’T better than they used to be?

There is absolutely an abundance of cheap crap options out there but almost everything has a much better equivalent available today.
