This is so true.
Choosing my introverted life partner was the best choice I ever made. Or the best choice they ever made for me...or somewhere in between. But great choice, all around.

Human readable test code.
I mean, I played Pokemon with my kids. So maybe both?
Now we play Cassette Beasts - and soon Palworld - together.
My boycott pretty naturally applied to my kids.
We were day one buyers for multiple copies of the last Zelda game, and the last couple Pokemon before Nintendo legal went foul.
Now no one in my family has a Switch 2, and my kids are begging me to help them spend their allowance on Palworld.
I bought a shit ton of games from Nintendo until their legal department went rabid.
Untouchable companies do fall, when they manage to alienate diehard fans, such as myself.
Yes. I was a huge purchaser of both Steam games and Nintendo exclusives on Switch (as long as they got great reviews).
Then Nintendo's legal team went crazy, attacking emulator developers and suing competing game studios over bullshit "patents" on game mechanics.
So it's time to starve that beast. No more Nintendo games, for me.
Btw, Zelda on PC when?
Any time you want, if you float in the right ~~seas~~...uh...circles. Or so I've heard.
Yes. Nintendo's lawsuit was what made me decide to buy Palworld. Fuck Nintendo's lawyers.
Misleading title (not yours, the article, itself).
Omitting the word "minors" from the title makes a world of difference.
Many of us can argue all day about where the line should be between freedom and safety for mature adults, while agreeing that minors (and other vulnerable people) deserve extra protection.
Edit: Also to echo the earlier comment *where dafuq are these parents?" Haha.
That security guard should be ashamed!
(edit: Yes, and arrested for assault!)
About fucking time.
Citizen's United (and similar corruption) took away our ability to regulate tech billionaires, but we still out number them.
If they want to stop being scared, they can curb their parasitic behaviors and return the billions they have extracted.
Edit: Getting off of the list of the world's billionaires is a path filled with fancy meals, accolades, ribbon cutting ceremonies, and thank-you letters from happier children.
Billionaires have a moral obligation to a cushy job (become non-billionares), and they aren't doing it, today.

Yes! It took me far to long to internalize this.
Ultimatums are never productive, and anyone issuing them is either desperate or an asshole. (Sometimes both.)
