Why is it “dickriding” to point out this has been a standard practice for all competitors for over 20 years?

I don’t understand why you immediately go to the extreme and think this is me defending them? If anything, I’m saying it’s all bad.

This has been a thing since 2005 or so, why are we still surprised again?

“I have already had to start to get used to the fact that the president will talk about how I look, how I sound, where I’m from, who I am. Ultimately because he wants to distract from what I’m fighting for,” Mamdani said. “And I’m fighting for the very working people that he ran a campaign to empower that he has since then betrayed.”

I think I like this guy

That’s a problem of the US law or lack of consumer protections compared to UK/EU, not because it’s Nintendo. All the other companies have this too.

it can suspend all kinds of services on your console, up to and including bricking it completely.

No, just online services.

Xbox and PlayStation have the same terms & conditions. Why is Nintendo being singled out?

Xbox:

You will not attempt to defeat or circumvent any Xbox Console, Kinect Sensor or Authorised Accessory technical limitation, security or anti-piracy system. If You do, Your Xbox Console, Kinect Sensor or Authorised Accessory may stop working permanently at that time or after a later Xbox Software update.

PlayStation:

we reserve the right to take any action we believe necessary to remedy the violation or to protect SIE’s interests, including: (a) the automatic removal or blockage of content associated with those Accounts; (b) implementation of upgrades or devices intended to discontinue unauthorized use; © the permanent or temporary disablement of access to any PSN Content, PlayStation Devices, products, services or features; (d) notifying law enforcement or the appropriate authority; and (e) initiating legal action.

edit: added some more words from the respective ToS to make it more legible

I keep a spreadsheet of Water in games, and OoT is at the top next to Super Mario 64 and Galaxy.

Haha this is really interesting! What else is on the list? Have you played titles such as Sea of Thieves or Subnautica?

Huge W imo

Repairability: Manufacturers must make critical spare parts available within 5 to 10 working days, and continue offering them for 7 years after the product is no longer sold in the EU.

Yup, we should look after the root issue, too. At the moment this just seems like a vibe treatment for millionaires

Stop moving the goalposts. Nobody cares about the votes themselves.

This is about observing a fact and recounting it to someone who’s misinformed about the situation and even has the audicity to gaslight someone over it

I was sitting at like, -2 when they made that comment so not imaginary. Please try to give the benefit of the doubt before jumping to conclusions

Yeah I was thinking the same, first few votes were down lol. Now you seem to catch the fire for pointing it out. Hope you care as much about votes as I do (which is not at all)

I also posted this in another threads a few days ago:

Nah, the OP of one reddit thread admitted he tried more than just his backups:

• Dude is a prolific poster in Switch hacking communities and he used an account which he previously used with a hacked Switch 1

• He admits trying the migswitch with the Switch 2 and it starting downloading something.

• They got an online ban, so offline games and such still work.

You can agree or disagree whether piracy should be legal or whether backup copies are permitted (depends on jurisdiction), but this dude obviously played with fire and got burnt.

TL;DR: don’t be stupid and get banned for breaking ToS (whether you agree with it or not)

I’m not entirely sure this is what you’re after, but “reddit” makes it a lot easier to fix software issues, at least with Windows. Regular search engines are SEO’d to death or you get the Microsoft forums where a “experienced expert” suggests steps OP already performed to then recommend a full system wipe.

I wish Lemmy had this trove of info and I try to put solutions on here as they are asked, but it will take time

There’s always a percentage of devices that will show defects, especially the launch wave. QA can never get 100% of units passed.

Does anyone remember the PS5 issues with the disc drive, rest mode, coil whine etc during launch?

Now if this turns into a pattern / widespread issue I’m ready to jump on the bandwagon, but this is not out of the ordinary.

E: typo

This is the way. Don’t be scared to block communities or even users that posts content you’re not interested in. Eventually you will have curated your feed

Lol you’re catching some votes but we’ve strayed from what OP was asking.

OP asking about beauty standards and people are straight up saying shit like “overalls” and “big boobs”.

Not bad opinions on their own but far from beauty standards

Not as much as growing veggies to then feed to a cow so you can harvest beef

you need to be more precise

Do I? I didn’t want to link any communities and you can click through OP to find the other thread.

It turns into this beautiful butterfly, for those interested!

Edit: just saw your other thread in c/whatisthisbug, lol.

And the CEOs are also getting arrested in these raids, right? Right?
