Depending on marketing & their dedication to bringing it to market...again... they can & they do. Digitally. Nintendo has sold old video games on the Wii, Wii U platform. Then, they packaged & released the NES & SNES Classic consoles, very smart move actually & it was a cute product that appealed to many consumers.

Since then, Nintendo's greed has grown. They no longer sell because they don't want you to own copies of old videogames....they want to rent them to you by the month or year. Via Nintendo Online subscriptions, you can browse the whole catalog & play all kinds of old games. It requires a Switch, an internet connection, and don't forget that sweet, sweet Nintendo Online subscription. Once you've gotten your fix & you cancel your subscription, you own nothing & they've got your money. This is their goal, everything is going according to plan. Subscription models for endless reven on old games.

You will give them your money, you will own nothing, and you will be happy.

I know you're being funny, and I appreciate the joke. 🙂 But I am so serious...alcohol-free. Not only is it less 'sketchy', but it's better for you & will result in better breath.

Ever smelled a chronic alcoholic's breath, particularly after they haven't had a drink for a while? Rancid.

It's the same with the alcohol in the mouthwash; it kills all the bacteria & flora in your mouth. Good & bad. It wipes the entire landscape clean, and unfortunately, the bad/stinky bacteria tends to be more resilient than the good bacteria. It multiplies & becomes a persistent, dominant presence. Which doesn't help your breath, even with regular brushing & tongue scraping.

...Oh, no! Anyway. Just giving people one more reason to finally make the switch to Firefox or something different.

Google Chrome warns about disabling uBlock Origin. I warn Google Chrome that they're being a little bitch & they're going to lose users.

Funny, but also not. Just Googled because I couldn't remember:

"According to the Institute of Medicine, physician's illegible notes lead to approximately 7,000 deaths annually."

Seems unreal. Even if it was half that...that's a lot of people. If I was getting prescribed drugs, I want it LEGIBLE. Typed up would be great. I just don't trust that shit, and neither should any of you.

...this is how people outside the industry learn what's going on, possible explanations for it. 🤨 Otherwise everybody's just perpetually in the dark.

Also, he didn't say anything bad about UPS, just a bad part of bad software.

This isn't shocking at all; this is SOP. China takes a shit on all copyrights, patents, trademarks. They steal & duplicate. Walmart was known for buying all things American small business, but then they'd sneak a few samples off to China & say, "Well, look! The Chinese are making your exact same product at x price. Can you match that?" Of course they can't. So Walmart bought the mostly equivalent but shittier goods, from China, to increase their profit margins.

Most recently brought to my attention: Shawn Woods & Rinne Traps USA brought the Flip-N-Slide mousetrap to market. The Chinese started ripping it off immediately.

Until the world calls them on their bullshit & stops buying, the practice is "profitable". We can expect it to continue.

Scooby-Doo was cut, there's a lot of race swapping, and basically it follows Velma who is an amazing girl-boss (/s) who solves all the mysteries, and everybody else is just kind of "around". There seems to be a lot of resentment of anyone who is wealthier, more successful, or popular. Fred is a punching bag for a lot of jokes, he's just a rich white boy who doesn't really know how to do anything.

Papa Meat (Hunter Hancock of MeatCanyon) has a review. It's pretty balanced, but even that's still negative, mainly rated high as it was because he liked the art. 😅

Apparently, despite a seemingly horrendous reception by the public, it has been renewed for a second season. ¯\(°_o)/¯

Goddamn weirdo cowards. There's no reason to remove cut & dry, factual information. It's not like they posted the letter & had annotations, "We love this guy!! Yay!! Hooray, 9/11!" They were like this is from Osama, to America, here it is. There's nothing for them to be ashamed of; it's stupid that they are.

Guy's pretty stupid, he says do you know about your employer Tommy ______. Tommy wouldn't be his employer. Tommy would be his employee.
