Once when I was younger I was seperated from my family on Halloween. I panicked a bit and walked up the street towards where I thought they had gone. Then, I turned left, and came onto yet another street packed with Halloween celebrators. However, nobody was talking. I mean it was silent enough for me to hear my own footsteps and brushing past people in the crowd. For comparison, the other nearby streets were too loud to talk without shouting. I finally found the other members of my group after walking for a solid 5 minutes, and they all seemed to think I had never left.

Oh. Ok

Did you manually add a shutterstock watermark?

I thought it was just a fun photo of a cat. It’s not worth being so upset over. Let people have their fun.

Regardless of the number of people involved in this conflict, nuclear escalation could only increase the number of deaths. There is no world in which atomic weapons solve this issue

Yes, although I still love the idea of Davy Jones running around with tiny water buckets strapped to each of his feet.

No, I agree. I liked the decision to not have Davy jones be entirely villainous. Although I did take issue with the inconsistency of the story later on. Like, if Jones can stand in a bucket of sea water to go on land, then can’t he just fill some sealed shoes with water and walk on land? It’s all rather ambiguous.

Agreed. Also, I think it was quite the power move to have a character so evil that they cut out their own heart, then made the actual villain a tiny British man who embodies capitalism.

Somehow nobody has mentioned Pirates of the Caribbean yet, so I will. They’re stupid movies, but they’re also incredibly entertaining, and the special effects (2 + 3 especially) hold up incredibly well.

Yeah, armored mewtwo is one of my favorite designs. The pack also came with a mutated charizard or something.

I have the Armored Mewtwo card, so that’s my favorite, but my first was a requaza I believe.

I’m not sure about their response, but I’ve had success using it with a usb adapter to play couch coop on a tv without needing a dedicated console.

Limited capabilities? I haven’t found a game in my library it couldn’t play locally. The ui is great, the controls work well, and it can even be used to run desktop apps.

Have you actually seen the video? It’s mostly about the exaggerated media coverage surrounding the nonexistent NyQuil chicken “trend”

I’ve just wishlisted Shadows of Doubt. Seems interesting.

I’ve been playing a handful of games:

• Demon’s Tilt: an excellent pinball game that runs great on the Deck. Also, the pixel art is very nice.

• Hades: a great roguelike, finishing the last few side quests now.

• Void Scrappers: a fun little survivors-like. Cheap and addictive.

• Cassette Beasts: similar to Pokémon, if Pokémon had actually innovated in the last few years. Awesome mechanics, and all the battles are doubles matches.

Good to hear about more people playing Hollow Knight. It’s excellent, and I highly recommend avoiding story spoilers until you’ve finished the main quests.

Answering your question on the inconsistent back button, there are simply too many of them. Sometimes it is the small text link with an arrow in the top left corner, sometimes it is a built in app back button, and sometimes the text version sticks around during navigation for no reason until it is clicked accidentally and throws back to the previous app.

Wow, you weren’t kidding.

Your point is solid, but that level of polish on Apple products is only skin deep. For example, there are several missing features and issues with MacOS that have gone unaddressed for years.

• Window edge snapping is incredibly frustrating. Linux desktops and Microsoft Windows have had proper window snapping support for decades.

• The app uninstall process is inconsistent, with some apps remaining contained in the .app folder while others spill out all over the system.

• The recovery mode process for resetting an Intel-based Mac is incredibly tedious and time consuming.

However, MacOS isn’t the only Apple product with issues.

• WatchOS has an inconsistent and difficult to navigate UI. The bubble menu is inconsistent and difficult to navigate, and the list view requires that you sort by alphabetical when a “recently used” sort would be significantly more efficient.

• IOS doesn’t allow sideloading apps.

• TVOS is filled with ads for Apple’s premium services like AppleTV+

• IOS home screen icons cannot have blank space and must instead tile to the top of the screen.

• Methods for going back to what was previously onscreen are inconsistent in IOS.

• IOS browsers are required to use mobile Safari’s web engine.

However, this isn’t to say that Apple products are bad, simply to remind you that they do have flaws. Based on your wording of “bootleg os’s” I can’t quite tell what your referring to. Windows is the only OS I’m aware of other than MacOS that has heavy advertising, but your phrasing seems to place it in a different category altogether. Although if you are looking for a new OS to try I highly recommend looking into the many Linux distributions available. I recommend Linux Mint to beginners, since it is generally the simplest to use.
