Fuck. You’re probably right. It’s all about nudging us towards the behavior they want.

I had an S8 a couple years back and upgraded to an S10 when it first came out. The notification light went away and it was a huge bummer. I now have a Pixel 7 and it doesn’t have it either, so I’ve learned to live without it.

And as the coup de grâce, their name is LemmyKnowsBest.

Well yeah you can understand most stories without reading/hearing the first part and it’s not like Legend of Zelda is exactly Moby Dick.

That’s a 9/10 stick you got there buddy, would def take it hiking.

Maybe everyone’s a completionist and would rather play the games in order rather than jump into the story halfway through ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I got $29 from the Intuit class-action suit. Yay. Pretty sure they charged more than that when I submitted my taxes that year. I was dumb.

So, in a little over a year everyone in the USA will be shot? 875K people are shot daily?

It probably isn’t. Which is such a shame because you’re gonna miss out on 40 episodes of legitimately some of the best TV ever made. But that makes the let-down so much worse when it comes.

The first 4 seasons of GOT are some of the best in TV history. Seasons 5-6 are good, but that’s when some of the tropes start to get overplayed and you see corners being cut. I should have stopped then, but I still had hope that they would rescue it. Nope.

Right. Two minutes is nothing. I live in Florida my water bill for 4 people is $50. Water conservation is the very very least of my worries.

Maybe if there was a way for me to send my hypothetically unused water over to Cali I’d care more, but.

People don’t know what words mean anymore. Everything is hyperbole

Is there a button to turn the screen off?

Out of curiosity can you define “no boring intrusive story”? Because personally I’m big on storylines, so if they nail that part then that takes the game to a whole other level

0.007% guys, math checks out.

I’d do it too. Here I am working my ass off for the next 30 years to save maybe $1m for retirement and someone’s willing to just give it to me after 48hrs of suffering? No brainer. I’d ask questions about the plan to keep it safe of course, but if I was satisfied that they knew what they were doing, I’d do it no question. I’m surprised that most are saying no to this. I mean shit, at least try.

Brain dead is such an understatement too. They lost everyone’s trust, and I’m not sure there’s anything they can say to regain it. They’re gonna try something like this again at some point, and I don’t think anyone should give them the opportunity. They deserve to go under.

I’ve heard two theories for this that I think are plausible:

• A feeling of familiarity even though this is a brand new situation. Your brain is always trying to determine the best course of action from experiences where you’ve encountered that problem before. Sometimes we have a false positive where the situation is so similar you “remember it”, but it’s obviously slightly different and new.

• Essentially a memory read/write error. Your brain is recollecting as it’s consolidating the memory causing wonkiness (technical term) in your experience. You think you remember, but what you’re remembering is actually the present experience.

I still say “bless you”
