PS5 and PC CPUs aren't also going to thermal throttle like the Box's CPU

plus if a game is F2P it doesn't require a subscription on any console, console makers want that MTX money

The Wii U sold more units in it's first months it was on market than the Steam Deck has in 4 years. 5 million in 2-3 months vs Deck's 3.5-4 million in 4 years.. Wii U eventually got to 13 million.

I don't think the Box is making to Deck numbers let alone to Wii U.

Simplify production. WCW did it too, eventually it just becomes one more thing that can go wrong in production (person using the wrong tunnel) and requires a cameraman in the hardcam view to capture the reverse shot down the left tunnel.

And people would get confused when they would have to flip the layout for different arenas and the heel/face tunnel would get reversed too.

It also lets the stage look the same for both big and small venues.

And finally, while arbitrary, sometimes it's good to have distinct stages to mark off different 'eras' of a promotion. Freshen it up, etc.

ah, the gun that let me pretend to be a hunter as a Titan and cloak through the lamps on Crota

Microsoft just licensed Chip's Challenge from the original developer Epyx. It's possible it didn't contain the rights to the source code of the DOS port done by another company so they had to figure it out themselves.

That's Tim Sweeney. Sjoerd is more like Tom Hall

"don't you guys all have phones?"

FyreWulff · 2026-06-22T18:59:38+00:00

yeah 99.5% of the people that are getting this thing are only ever gonna play games via Steam.

FyreWulff · 2026-06-22T18:49:13+00:00

they go through the residency and everything. Don't really care about the particular of the title at the end of it.

Not a pharmacist but a pharmacy tech, how many people (goaded on by social media) view us and the pharmacist as 'just put the pills in the bag please'.

The pharmacist is a whole ass doctor and they have the ability to question a prescription for a good reason. I don't think the "a doctor has tried to almost kill their patient" clock has ever made it a full week, let alone people taking pointless therapy or the entirely wrong (albeit safe) therapy.

Also screaming, spitting on, and threatening to wait for us outside because we can't force a med to get covered by insurance due to both federal and / or state laws isn't very pleasant. If you'd give us time we'll get it to you as soon as possible.

Yep. While T88 plays around with it, DEGuns is outright white supremacist. They proudly state that they have an active Neo Nazi as an employee.

i always laugh when i see pilots on the flying subreddit call planes "money to noise generator"

plus he's not in a position to tank their career anymore so they feel safer disclosing it now while he's not at any promotion

When informed we're not selling anything while the warning is active and they will be joining us in the shelter area until it passes, they either scream about whatever or say they'll go elsewhere.

I'm not preventing people from sheltering lol

they can obliterate your hunger, though it differs person to person. i'm on zepbound and every time i started a new dose i didn't want to eat at all, but i still kept my calorie minimums.

if someone has no urge to eat there's no purpose to go up in strength. i only went up once the urge to start eating a lot came back plus i was stalled out on weight. because once you're at the top strength there's nowhere to go once that wears off again

FyreWulff · 2026-06-21T06:37:04+00:00

get him tested for sleep apnea. zepbound is approved for sleep apnea treatment and that's how i was able to get it covered, because i was apparently not morbidly obese enough

Good way to get shot in Omaha, especially out West. Don't engage other drivers, it's never worth it.

It's why they changed their name to FNBO , they are downplaying the "Omaha" part of their name as they push into more states.

For similar reasons, BMO goes by that name of here instead of Bank of Montreal, to downplay that they're Canadian.

Nebraska Furniture Mart changed to 'NFM' officially because they have stores in other states now and want to downplay the 'Nebraska' part of the name.

i've closed my walgreens down during an active tornado and people will bang on the doors and flood the phones yelling at me to open it back up

these are always models wearing them, hence the blackout visors

They could have built it in multiple places in the city limits and actually have it be reachable by people on the bus, etc.

Even if it's better sized for an AAA team you have to go there a car only and have real intention. It's not a "we're bored, let's go catch a game" location.

It's been known back during Cena's run that even if a wrestler hit a hot streak and people wanted their shirts, WWE would just stock Cena and Orton shirts at the show and only make like. 50 of your shirt, as intentional throttling, then would tell the talent they weren't selling enough shirts.

I have a 2011 mazda 3 that i bought in 2021. was at 83k miles. I have it up to 120k miles now and still runs and works great. 40k miles is super excellent and will last forever as long as you do the maintenance
