I don’t know the page you’re taking about, but I found this map years ago. It changed me from being a lifelong “make DST permanent” stan to stumping for permanent standard time.

People on the westernmost sides of time zones would get absolutely hosed in the mornings under permanent DST.

This is the first I’m hearing of jelly beans and suddenly I have a sawsall in my hand.

Same for me, doubly so with over-ear cans. Any internal noises (breathing, swallowing, coughing etc) get cranked to 11. And any noise from the cans or headrest goes to 12.

It’s like being a self-righteous ideologue is a prerequisite to make threadiverse software.

One is Irish.

i have heard from more than one person now that these are hit or miss

When they hit, they hit like a truck.

Oh, they knew. Hence asking for water right after.

So there must have been different bundles because my Wii U Mario Kart bundle came with a physical copy of the game and a special red Mario controller + plastic wheel.

There’s been a LOT of bundles. Either way, we both learned something today. I’d call that a win.

People really really latched onto the key card narrative despite it all being 3rd party publishers making use of it. The lone exception as far as I know is Pokopia, which as a Pokémon title comes with all the usual fucky bullshit that comes along with TPC and GameFreaks… but it was published in the west by Nintendo themselves.

It may be the only one, but people have convinced themselves that it’s everything and no amount of facts will sway them otherwise.

All previous versions of Nintendo consoles with a bundle came with physical media.

Not true. If anything I’m trying to remember the last one that came with the physical game. The MK8 Wii U bundle was digital. As were the ALBW 3DS bundles. There’s probably a few though, between the 2/3DS and Switch there have been quite a few collectors’ editions. Some with game, some without.

MSoft and Sony would adopt the latest (most expensive) usb version for the transfer speed.

Nintendo opted for SD Express (a spec that has existed for years) in the Switch 2 and people pitched a fit over the “proprietary” format.

The Oregon coast is fucking amazing. The first and only time I saw the dunes there (not sure if it was Florence specifically) I was awestruck. Huge mountains of sand seemingly in the middle of a forest. Right next to the ocean.

Thanks for bringing back some memories.

I bounced pretty hard off of the demo. Hoping the full version has in-game button remapping. My hand does NOT like using A as a perma-mash/hold button. Yes, I know you change it in system settings, but until you can assign mappings per-game it’s an awkward kludge.
