there's only a couple of companies that run every drug store in the us. both cvs and walgreens each own over a dozen other names that they operate as depending on where in the country you are.

same thing with grocery stores. Kroger and Safeway also both own over a dozen names that they operate under.

I believe rite aid is owned by walgreens.

A long time ago, i woked at a savers (thrift store), which also operated as a dozen other names depending on region. Makes me think that maybe someone could make a bot that could identify a person's geographic location based on the brands mentioned in their comments.

and it's funny, so I choose to keep it as part of the canon.

well that's easy, I haven't shopped there in years. They're inconvenient, overpriced, low quality, rarely have what I'm looking for. Why would I shop there?

If i have to suffer because I'm a dumb dumb, that's on me. I'm tired of suffering because other people are stupid.

this is how you rickroll the youth

The problem isn't the updates. The problem is microsoft downloading things and restarting my pc without my consent (annoying me until I say "fine, do it" is not consent). No one but me decides when my machine installs updates and reboots. I know I'm putting myself at risk if I let my system fall behind on updates. That's on me, it's my computer, it is my right to make that decision.

what is jack?

so I totally forgot that I commented on this, and was coming in to make a comment about how aesthetic is so much more important than graphical fidelity, then saw that I had already made a quippy comment.

oops.

I also frequently lie to myself.

not only based, but also gay.

because gay is good, therefore the original point is good.

It's better if you look at games that are not 3d.

i've got an old version of FCEUX that I boot up all the time to run The Guardian Legend. One day, I'll do a full run in one sitting. Then, maybe I'll speedrun. I can dream.

I think I may have just done a bad job of explaining my first point:

I'm saying that manufacturers are putting these features on phones that people weren't going to buy anyway on purpose, in order to support the narrative that nobody wants those features.

There's counter examples of course, but for the most part I think what I said is applicable.

no one bought it because it was shit. companies do this all the time so they can make more expensive things more cheaply, and force people into buying the most expensive.

I want an easily removable battery. As in, I want to be able to have two batteries, one in my phone and another in a charger and I just swap them once a day. I used to be able to do that, and it was normal. Now, the only phones that have that are either extremely garbage or also feature a barcode scanner and cost as much as a "flagship" device.

"Excerpts from a book I'll never write"

I'm glad there's pronunciations provided, because to me it looks like it should sound like a slur.

my biscuits are amazing and I will hear no objection

damn skippy

You've never worked customer service, so of course you don't understand.

i just want it to work without having to fix it
