I agree. That thing was HUGE. I have tiny hands too, and always struggled with it.
I also didn’t really like the N64 controller, it was kind of a weird size too, and it just had a weird layout.

They don’t marry them, they just diddle them underage on exotic island compounds.
Cons just care about the kid until they are born. Not one second longer than that.
It would be a massive loss for sure. One that will be felt for a long time. It’s the only way I can get around our thoroughly enshittified press up here in Canada. I mean I’d gladly pay, if it was worth paying for, which it’s not.
It’s actually the mods that did it for me. If you don’t have this really weird super specific but vague world view, and you can’t follow 143 different rules (some not specified), then they start censoring you and temp banning your comments and contributions. The mods on my community sub actually permabanned me when I questioned them on it, instead of discussing it. After that I was like this is infuriating, and I don’t really want to participate here. Problem is, they mod anything related to said topic, like city, province, country, most political parties, quite a few special interest topics, etc. Its super weird behaviour.
Sega Master System. A kid never forgets his first video game system, and nothing has quite scratched that itch ever since.
The shareholders need to start calling out the clear bias of the boards constitution. Vanguard and iShares combined hold more shares than Elon does. It’s clearly doable, it’s just time for some adults in the room. If you hold Vanguard and iShares etfs in your accounts, don’t be afraid to let them know this.
Grab a Chromecast or almost any cheap streaming device of your choice, Tivimate and IPTV. Find a really good reliable IPTV provider for your area and you won’t really have issues.
*rubbing hands together" Oh this is going to be good.
That said, people are fucking stupid, especially when it comes to money.
Oh man are reddit users in for it when they have to answer to the market and public shareholders. Who really will just be a bunch of evil boomers holding institutional blocks.
If you think about it, DOS still would do pretty much all you need. Everyone’s friggin too lazy anymore though, and enjoys being bombarded with bloat.
It’s going to be a dumpster fire. I think any savvy investor can see straight through it. Institutional investors are fucking sick of these trainwreck, unprofitable tech companies. The only people lining up for these IPO shares are going to be a few FOMO folks, the CNBC crowd, and other uneducated idiots that want in at the beginning plus (lol) all their power mods. All of whom are going to be left holding the bag following the first earnings call.
I did too. My life is all the better for it. The fediverse is much more positive overall, and even if you don’t like something, just find a different instance then. You don’t lose the ability to peacefully use the product. Unlike Reddit…
I don’t know if I agree with you. Your idea of following a topic over all communities is a solid one, for sure. Not sure I would agree with a comment being posted across all. Maybe an option for cross-posting, should one wish? How would you deal with the replies though, like certainly that all couldn’t be cross posted, could it?. I just think it would get too complicated in a hurry, that’s all. I like your ingenuity, anyways.
You and 90% of the rest of society.
Man you better watch out if they do that to me, there’s going to be vomit everywhere.
I got a 73% raise for jumping ship after just under four years at my old job, back in 2021 2022. I was getting nothing but gaslighted when I pointed out that my salary was becoming a bit under the indicated going rate. Which to me quickly indicated that they saw me as disposable, as they refused to respond to clear and well laid out backup. Then the phone rang, so I mean that was that. I did what disposable people do, and jumped out the window.
I’ve since gotten one promotion and about another 30% increase from my starting rate, which means I’m making more than double what I was just two years ago. But I’m not resting on that. I’m always watching and thinking about what’s next. It’s a competition for my labour, and I will more often than not side with the highest bidder. I don’t give a shit about tenure, or my potential growth, or my so-called future within your company. Unless you show me the path, a well laid out timeline with mutually defined goals that you clearly will stick to, and the money. Then I might care. But even then, I’m always a bit weary, and it’s almost always more rewarding to chase external opportunities and promotions. That said, I’ve also never had an employer that’s truly believed in me and actually been legitimately concerned with my growth before. It’s always been take take take, false promises and failures to actually deliver on insinuated opportunities when the chips fell. Ones mileage may vary though.
I think the answer to this is actually fairly simple. When the bossman tells me something’s in my best interest, I’m just immediately suspicious. Like I know in your example it maybe is, you’ve laid out your logic and all of that. But you have to realize that for every good boss, there’s probably 15 bad ones. Western economic, labour systems and power structures have been so lopsided for generations, that it’s literally hard coded in us to be suspicious. Whenever someone comes at me from work with a big smile and excitement, my flags FLY to red alert. Because I’m statistically far more likely to be on the raw side of the deal.
I look at it differently. It’s my job to invest in, and create an environment that people don’t want to ever leave. It’s a two way street. If people are only hanging around for a year, something is up, and it probably ain’t their fault.
There were some cheap ass weird ones in North America too. I remember for Christmas we’d ask for a Joycon or something like that, and we’d get “the Joycron,” which looked nothing like a controller, had a weird shape, felt like shit and was cheap as hell. The old man would be like, arrrr we saw it at the BiWay and it was 99 cents, why do you need the one thats $60? Then he would play it, and sure enough, by February you had the real one.
