Yep https://www.amazon.com/SAMSUNG-microSD-MicroSDXC-MB-MD1T0SA-AM/dp/B0CWPNS8JY $99.99 it shows for me - not sure how taxes work on this (I’m not American) but that probably counts.

Magnavox Odyssey, Atari Home Pong, Coleco Telstar - that sort of thing. Mostly with built in games.

I’ve also removed from my wish list - hopefully they reverse the decision and I can add it back.

In hopes they read this comment - the problem is your price. $100 a year is about what I pay for membership to The Guardian - a highly respected, award winning newspaper, that gives away ALL its content. Why would I pay the same for tech news that covers a fraction of all the news out there?

At $5 a year I would have signed up after reading one good article - at $10 maybe after a couple of good articles - but at $100? Never. Even if you were the only good tech news site - and you are not.

I would say it means strong but with an implied sadness, but you can have positive poignant memories too - you’d just have to state they were positive. The day I graduated from University was poignant because it was the end of an era and the start of another, but it doesn’t mean it is a sad memory.

Nonce as an insult is definitely used in British, although it has a very specific meaning so not something you’d casually call a friend (depending on the friend!)

Mine arrived this morning before 9am. Tested it this afternoon and all looks good!

UK - ordered within 25 minutes of going up (spent 25 minutes TRYING to checkout), it’s due to arrive today

On that line of thinking Ireland might be a good choice - they speak English and are still in the EU.

In the UK “the shopping” means food, groceries, and other essentials (although it can mean luxury items too). Giving phrases like “I’ll carry in the shopping” or “I’m going out for the shopping”.

So saying it’s expensive to be buying shopping is saying food, etc. is expensive.

Sorry if it sounded like I don’t agree with you - I do!

Most professional jobs can’t be done from a couch without screwing your body or compromising your work space, etc. A laptop on your knees isn’t a professional work environment for most people.

Completely agree! It’s a privileged place to be in to have the room to dedicate to an office but I think it’s necessary to have that setup to work from home properly without screwing your body, if nothing else.

Sure, joining a call from the couch, bed, or toilet is a thing but it’s not something that is the entire day. I agree about having a better desk set up at home - I spent a lot of my own money making my home environment better.

Lost all credibility when it implied working from home is working from the “couch”. This is not what working from home means in a professional context. Dedicated working spaces with a desk, monitors, and a proper chair is working from home in a modern organisation.

Decent reduction - well done Valve!

OPs link is Hank’s “blog post” about that video, he links to it in the article.

I mean that since 1983 (I’ll be generous and exclude the Color TV-Game era) through seven console generations only the Wii and WiiU were backwards compatible with the previous console which covers 11 years. That’s 28.5% of consoles and 27.5% of years. Not great odds.

For their handhelds they have an excellent history of backwards compatibility - but for consoles it’s only the Wii generation where we saw it. People are nervous because Nintendo didn’t make the Switch backwards compatible and because it’s technically complex to make something backwards compatible with the nVidia hardware in the Switch.

I really hope, and strongly think Nintendo SHOULD, make the Switch 2 backwards compatible but I won’t be surprised if it’s not.
