Sorry, old terminology strikes again. I call any thin portable computer without an ODD or FDD a netbook; because all the damn things are good for is getting on the Internet. My actual laptop, I’ve had to do physical modding to the case to give it an ODD (and it still uses a USB port because of laziness).

Very much the opposite. The only broken USB port I’ve ever had was a USB-C port for a netbook charger.

My NDS plug (and 3DS plug) stays in so firmly I’ve had to tug on it. Are we living in Bizarro-land from each other?

Lucky you. My experience has been the opposite.

Find me a USB-C that doesn’t fall out. Every Micro-USB male plug that I’ve used has those two notches at the bottom that hold it in place. Every device I’ve had with USB-C, I have to treat it like it’s super delicate while it charges.

That’s correct, and the fact that Apple caved from the 8-Pin Lightning connector to USB-C is one of many, many reasons I won’t be buying anything Apple again, even second-hand. The lack of a headphone jack is just one more thing that made me certain of it. If I could find a micro-USB device with a headphone jack that serves as a phone, a pager, a calculator, and an audio (various formats - MP2A,MP3A,MP4A,WAV, FLAC, OGG, WMA, etc.) player, all my problems would be solved. I have looked into featurephones, I think I’m going to be moving in that direction next time I upgrade.

I don’t see what the issue is here. They don’t want to be treated as a utility, but if they stay in New York, they’ll be regulated as a utility. They’ve dealt with it as a phone provider, and choose not to engage in the regulatory environment being put in front of them. It’s a totally reasonable choice for a business to walk away from a market if the cost of doing business would exceed the profits made.

Multiple times. But no, I mean, when I saw the OP, all I could think of was “Jamie wants big boom.”

Okay. so there’s two of us who thought of Mythbusters upon seeing this.

Jamie want big boom!

The problem is that that sometimes if you give the government the finger… you might not get it back.

I look forward to the people who don’t realize that Red Note will just get banned too.

I’ve learned to ask “what’s on your mind?” instead. It’s less accusatory than assuming something is wrong.

Um, why do you have the Temu version of Rachel morphing out of an emu, when that’s supposed to be Jake into the gecko?

There are dozens of us! Dozens!

PipePipe has even more sources.

So, how much is Funko or their “partner” going to willingly pay Itch for their lost income? Or is there going to have to be a lawsuit?
