This just in: primary caregiver more likely to remember medical details! I'm a stay-at-home dad, and I have much greater knowledge about my kids' medical history.

It is tacky to leave the sticker on there with the lower price, but you are the one who paid 12£. How does it matter what they paid? If they search for books to resell at a profit, that's time spent, risk taken, and money earned.

Are there doctors and scientists recommending people NOT to take it?

There are morons in every field. We can't just look at the outliers.

Well that's just stupid.

I (37M) recently caught myself getting frustrated when my wife offered solutions to my ranting. I just wanted to complain and not be told all the ways I could have avoided the problem in the first place. I finally understand.

An island of this size should probably have neither.

Does anyone younger than a boomer even care about hair color? I'm 37 and while pink hair might stand out to me, that's only because of the rules written by those with sticks up their backsides, half a century ago. Ultimately, I don't give a damn.

Fred Rogers was an amazing person. I had my kids watch his show back when it was age-appropriate, and I loved seeing the love and joy that man inspired.

Incidentally, I find it funny that the seasons of Mr. Rogers' Neighborhood are the most uploaded of the torrents I'm currently seeding. The next highest is Steve Irwin's show. I guess pirates like wholesome things for their kids. Yarr!

Watching at 1.5x for 30 minutes without realizing... How high was this person? It's either that, or brain damage; there's really no other explanation.

First off: normies?

Second, you're absolutely right. Steam did a great job with the whole Steam Deck Verified thing. It ensures that the game "just works", which is someone that can't always be said of PC games. It makes sense, given the near uniform hardware of the Deck, of course, but it's still important for reaching the console and/or casual gamer markets.

And let's face it, the Deck is just convenient as hell. It's the mobile gaming solution I've wanted for decades.

Did you just write this? Or is it some copypasta? Because I read that whole wall of text, and I think you've got some good points.

That's a large part of why, with older games, I prefer to use emulators, even if they're available to me in other ways. I love the "save state" option. It's terribly exploitable, of course, but it sure is convenient to be able to save literally anywhere.
