I think there’s something to the sitting idle angle. My launch joycons started getting drift 4-5 years ago. I did the usual clean out, then cut some plastic to put more pressure on the stick back plate and they were surprisingly fine. Two years ago I picked up an OLED, and my primary switch got very little handheld use after that.

Fast forward to a few weeks ago, when I grabbed my launch switch to upgrade the firmware and run some tests. The sticks were basically unusable. I have a couple sets of Hall effect sticks laying around, I guess now is as good a time as any to put them to use.

Yeah, blaming this on Nintendo is just rage bait.

So, par for the course.

This is something that even larger corps struggle with. My old company would buy some other company, lay off a bunch of people, others would quit, and then it was shocked Pikachu faces all around when That One Thing stopped working in an office they turned into a ghost town and, well, no, nobody was going to be there until Monday morning to power cycle etc. True lights out/OOB reachability is WORK. And there’s always going to be a SPOF somewhere that requires hands on-site.

Do what you can, when you can. And thank you for all that y’all have done so far.

Thanks for the heads up, try not to stress too much.

Any word on if cross-platform multiplayer will be supported? Would love to play with my nephew but he’s a PlayStation kind of guy.

You ever try emptying your clip at an entire Ikea?

No… but you probably just aroused a few dozen ammosexuals.

Engineer Guy went years between books uploads. I had to do a double take when he came up in my feed a few months ago.

Live with underlying existential dread for decades. Watch as “doing what you love” becomes “hating what you used to love because you’re forced to do it so that there’s enough numbers in the computer to prove that you’re worthy of continued existence.” Contemplate the pointlessness of it all on a daily basis. Be reminded that your feelings are invalid because “other people have it worse” every time the topic comes up. Nod listlessly as “successful” people tout their own hard work while ignoring any factor luck and privilege played, then tune out when they shift into the dissonant duet of “I succeeded because I am exceptional” and “anyone can do the same if they just work harder.”

Wake up the next morning and realize there’s roughly 30 more years of this, barring a massive coronary or aneurism or something.

Is it weird, as a tail end gen x/elder millennial, to really hope Lehrer was right about this one?

I don’t like it, but watching the flush can save a whole lot of pain. Clogs suck.

Nipple tassels.

There’s a thousand mile expanse of woods and bullshit across the northern states where you could just walk through the forests into Canada.

I’ve always wanted to get eaten by a moose.

It is, just checked. I’m gonna need to give it a spin before buying. Not sure if the close 3rd person camera is going to trigger my motion sickness or not. 😒

a salad is feminine while steak is masculine?

When has a 90s cartoon ever been wrong?

I have subscribed for just such an occasion.

Engage was pretty fun.

Really surprised that it tallied more than TotK. But then again I do have a tendency to leave games on pause while scrolling/choresing/nodding off on the couch because I’m old.
