They were on sale!!!

Your comment reminded me of the time I tried to connect my new phone number to my accounts, but had trouble with Amazon and AirBnB because the last guy with the number forgot to update his accounts.

Amazon told me it’d have to delete the old account before allowing me to connect my new number.

That’s not even the worst one though.

AirBnB gave me no other option than to log in to the other guy’s account through nothing but the SMS recovery code (which came to my phone since I have his old number now), starting the account recovery process from within his account, and then removing the phone number from his account.

After logging out (and closing the private browsing window and turning off the VPN), I was then able to link the phone number to my account. (And yes, I tried everything else – from within my account, it told me “Sorry, this number is linked to another account”)

Never had a problem with AirBnB or the new phone number since then though!

LOL Ex-Hezbollah member changes his ways and sells his pager on E-Bay

Someone finds a cheap pager from Iran on E-Bay and decides they want it…haha

(I know you said Wish, but I like this story too, lol)

The problem is caused by a combination of extraversion and low social intelligence.

Extraversion isn’t the problem, and I didn’t get the sense that OP was saying all extraverted people are like this. But the problem is undoubtedly related to the boss’ extraversion

What about Kiwi Farms?

Easily Buu! The fat Majin version was the best.

I remember Launch in early DBZ, I think, but it felt like they just forgot about her, lol

Yes and no and yes.

Kind of like “Redditors”. 4Chan people have organized things under the banner of “Anonymous”. Did all of them participate? No. But we still say Russia is invading Ukraine when it’s not all Russians.

Some of them even broke off into another organized group called Kiwi Farms, I think. I believe they were the ones who thought that Anonymous wasn’t bullying people enough.

whatever a free market decides it should be used for

People say that AIs don’t “think” or “decide” things, but I think it’s better to personify an AI/LLM than “a free market”, lol

Only extra well-done with ketchup

Same here! I spent a lot of time in Midgar, so it felt like the whole game could take place there. But stepping onto the world map was an amazing experience partially because of how amazing Midgar was to me.

I played it as a kid in the 90s though, so that might’ve coloured my interpretation of it.

“Physical copies” is a big ask, considering they would also have to be selling the hardware to run those games.

To your credit, they aren’t actually selling most of their back catalog anymore, since their e-shops that sold games for the WiiU/3DS are closed down, and with them, the Virtual Console died. Now we’ve only got a subscription-based library to play a much more limited selection of old games.

Either way, it’s not Nintendo’s fault you pirate games. You want to play old games, and you don’t want to pay too much money for them, so you pirate them. Let’s be real.

Wow, Midgar was my favourite part of the original FF7! I remember thinking the whole game was going to take place in Midgar.

Why not a controller?

Ah, so if they just provide training to members of the Ukrainian military, then everything’s fine in Putin’s eyes? Loopholes are great

My attitude isn’t going to matter if we all die. Neither will yours, lol

[…] gamble the future of humanity over western hegemonic interests

…I thought this was about Ukraine fighting back against the country that’s been invading it

“Men are being left behind!”

They gotta get with the program! Lol

That could make sense. I’m not familiar enough with military weaponry to know how true it all is

Ah, I might’ve mixed it up with threatening or insinuating nuclear war.

Either way, it just seems like more sabre-rattling. Also, it’s not something that the US is doing, it’s something that Putin’s being a pansy about.

Russia claiming X means war with NATO has been a bit of a recurring theme throughout the war.
