Nintendo are about the only big publisher I would spend money on nowadays outside of indies. The enshittification is ramping up too much everywhere else.
I have a soft spot for cassettes, they were my main musical ... thing growing up well into high school. I cant remember the last time I actually listened to any of my old tapes but I keep them around to look at. Ive also got a cd collection, much smaller since I went basically right from tapes to downloading. These days i stream most music but I still purchase digital copies of albums (directly if I can to support the artists) and listen to mp3 on my desktop regularly
I left it to soak after making bacon. It became a greasy rusty mess... (of course now I could have saved it) but at the time i tried steel wool and gave up. The experience has led me to buy enamel coated iron instead
I regularly get them from family, its annoying for this reason. But its better just use the remainders as a few bucks off a regular purchase (that id make anyway).
There are many many studies proving internet and social media addiction can cause depression, and internet addiction is extremely widespread especially in teenagers. Also declining mental health and depression are so widespread in young people... this study seems strange.
Well youre right, there are ways to see stuff on the cheap. In Canada we have some cheaper theatres, and cheap tuesday. But matinees arent a thing here anymore.
Also because of my job and family I can rarely go til the weekend. And its always me and my kids... its always fun but it ends up being very very expensive.
Better to just wait and watch it at home. Im sure its the same for a lot of people.
"Pro" suggests power users, but 8 GB is what you'd find in a low end word processing desktop for office use, or even a kid's chromebook. This is crazy, they are REALLY pushing their luck with this.
I would say maybe if there's enough pushback they'll offer a better option, but I doubt it.
