Except this time around it’s already looking like a minority of games are going to be on the carts. The blank key only cards are cheaper, so publishers are choosing solely because of that to maximize profits.

Previously on the original Switch the key carts were often games that didn’t fit the onboard space.

Banned consoles are getting returned and sold as used already to unsuspecting consumers.

It also brings other choices they’ve made this generation into question. Many games aren’t actually on the cartridges, they require downloading them to play even if you have a physical cartridge. If the device is banned, you cannot access the eShop to download anything.

A minority. And it’s only going to get worse as time goes on. The digital only carts are cheaper for publishers, so you know that’s what the majority will pick just because. The ones with the game on board also only come in a 64GB flavor (currently) so anything larger than that won’t fit and would require a digital cartridge.

Nintendo clearly wants to transition to digital only for some reason, even though they’re releasing some first party games on the carts still.

There’s usually people in the bar area if you don’t go at like, 11 am.

The comment you responded to literally says that the article makes no mention of alcohol, or even food. So barcades aren’t what you need to be looking at. You need to look at whether standard arcades will work located in old malls.

And the answer to that is clearly no, because they already failed once and things haven’t changed for that. Barcades work not only because of the games, but the bar. A tiny selection of basic piswasser isn’t going to cut it to attract people.

The current physical carts are only available in 64GB size, and the key only carts are a lot cheaper for the Switch 2. Which means higher profits for the publishers, so of course that’s what most of them are going with.

I don’t actually know if a banned console can still download and install games from a cart, haven’t looked into that specifically. Knowing Nintendo though, they wouldn’t give a shit about customers no longer able to play their purchased games. They don’t care about the customer after purchase in any regard and haven’t for years based on comments and actions they’ve taken.

That means you can’t use the eshop

Which is where the issue is. Banning from online play is justifiable, the issue is the rest.

Since most games aren’t even on the cartridges and are downloaded from the eShop even when you buy the physical copy.

Does that ban prevent you from getting game updates?

Does the ban prevent you from using the physical games you’ve purchased?

Because that’s where the issues are. Nintendo can ban the console from online play all they want, their decision of how the Switch 2 handles the actual games and installs means that it would turn the device effectively into a brick.

I switched to Bitwarden after the LastPass stuff a couple years ago, and I just got around to installing Vaultwarden on my TrueNAS system at home. Using a single Cloudflare Tunnel to handle secure external connections for that and other services like Emby easily. Took a little bit to setup following some guides, but has been working flawlessly for me and some friends. You can use the regular Bitwarden apps and extensions since they natively support self hosting.

Beans on toast?

Checks out. Especially for the crazy people that refer to all sliced bread as toast, whether it’s toasted or not.

Lots of downtime at work at 3am. Might as well poke the Europeans since they’re awake.

This is a reminder that military service does provide for naturalized citizenship, but it is not automatic. This is not well explained, if at, all by leadership.

That is not why fahrenheit works the way it does

You’re entirely right, but it’s fun to trigger people like you with a couple words that ultimately mean nothing.

You are projecting your own ignorance over billions of people, because you yourself have no idea how it works.

You mistake ignorance for simply not giving a fuck. I know what Celsius is, I know how it converts, I just don’t care.

It’s very entertaining to be able to trigger people at will to crawl out of the like bugs and talk shit online, wasting their time on a topic that doesn’t matter in the slightest. It’s usually the Europeans, they seem to have a superiority complex about this specifically for some reason and love typing at length about it. Most other countries outside the EU region don’t bother, probably because it doesn’t matter.

Also, here’s the obligatory reminder to the Europeans that the US began using metric in 1866 and officially switched to the metric system in 1975, it just wasn’t made mandatory to switch, so most didn’t. Because it doesn’t really matter for daily life which system is used.

You do realize the reason fahrenheit is set up that way, is based on the human perception of temperature. 0-100 is the general range or cold to hot. Of course some inhabited areas end up outside that range a bit, because humans are adaptable but generally speaking it allows for far more graduation in every day real world scenarios. Metric is good for science, but not ideal for casual everyday usage of hot and cold.

Your body doesn’t really care what the boiling point or freezing point of water is. But you should and generally do need to preemptively plan for environments outside the fahrenheit scale.

The Hunger Games probably made a crap ton of people learn the word.

So can the US military. We’re talking about reality though, not what’s technically legal.

They’re going to make the soldiers’ life a living hell for not following orders all the way through the inevitable court martial trial.

Ah yes, the Honda badged Chevy Blazer EV.

Big fan of Honda, always had one until I switched to a Tesla in 2018 because I wanted an EV, and a Polestar now. But the rebadged Honda vehicles are always sub-par. The original generations of Passport were essentially just an Isuzu Rodeo, and it showed.

I hope this round is better, but I get the feeling that won’t be the case.

Yeah it is clear as day here. Airflow is inadequate while the product is in use on hotter days.

It’s a screen made by Microsoft to match their aesthetic and settings pages, of course. But it’s the exact same Google account sync system that every Chromium has, unless you’re specifically using an unGoogled version.

This is literally the standard Google sync account stuff in every Chromium browser. Don’t want it? Pick a browser that isn’t Chrome based. That basically leaves Firefox or a handful of brand new alpha buggy browsers no one has heard of with dubious update potential.

Edge is a Chromium browser. This is the standard Chrome sync stuff from nearly every one of those.

I did say it wouldn’t even be considered.
