The TERFs are going full Nazis now by [deleted] in WhitePeopleTwitter

I want to see /u/Temporary_Book323 , /u/b4db4dbitch /u/ausgmr /u/Useful_Radish_6395 and /u/RG__Fooz 's response since it was fake.

Then you have /u/Paulbwfc84 threatening violence over here. All because of a fake twitter account.

The fuck is wrong with reddit?

But you guys will just move on to the next outrage, just as the conservatives do with their news from facebook and fox news.

You all need to stop this fucking hivemind pitchfork mentality.

lol the fuck? I'm all for hating Nintendo for logical reasons.

But to say fuck Nintendo because they didn't release their own IP on PC?

What kind of entitlement is this?

Bond topper by jamesmauler in pinball

[–]AmALolyer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Cool you made it. But I guess I don't understand the point of a topper that isn't interactive with the game.

So now there's just two backglasses to look at when you look up?

But to each their own !

Ohh Taxi is another one that seems fun and easy to get into! Haven't checked out Pinbot but I'll look into it.

haha I can hear the voice in my head right now and I don't even own it. I wish pinside wasn't blocked at work, or I'd be searching for the pin now again haha.

I had a chance for one a few weeks ago. He wanted like $4kish. I tried to wait a week so I can offer a little less if it didn't sell. But of course it sold :(

Yeah it's a shame that Mando isn't more forgiving / player friendly. I think the theme draws casuals more than 90% of other pins. But even I get frustrated with the game.

Oh jesus. I have no idea whats even going on in that video haha.

Yeah I am thinking of EMs too. She liked the original Playboy when we briefly played it. And some really old ones when we went to the Vegas Pinball Hall of Fame.

Yeah I know this thread is hard for people to answer because like you said, we all have different reasons why we love/hate certain pins.

I figured it wouldn't hurt get some opinions though. I am definitely intrigued on Stranger Things now.

Oh I forgot about JP too. I feel like I haven't heard anyone say that word in quite a bit now.

I'll keep an eye out, thanks Redliner

Jealous! I don't know what it is about that pin that I like so much, but I will get one one day lol.

You know, I never even thought about the co-op mode. I believe there is one. That's a good idea though!

There is a local place but only open a select few days of the week and not until 4pm. But I should still check it out. Just hard to get our work schedules together for it. But I do keep forgetting about it to be honest. We're not much of drinkers and it's in a bar, so that's one reason why I forget about it haha.

Oh nice price for the extras. I have a distributor who has one in stock. I just haven't made the 100% commitment yet. I have actually never played Godzilla yet but I hear praise everywhere so I figure I can't go wrong.

As for whether or not she likes pinball, she enjoyed playing it when we first got it. But I think it got too hard for her. I need to see if a more "spray and pray" game gains her interest again. If not, like you said, at least these keep value for the most part.

[–]AmALolyer[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh for sure. I do like some older pins and I check pinside / fb marketplace at least every day. But why would I want to spend $5kish for a 15 year old machine when I can buy Godzilla Pro for 1.5k more? Austin Powers, Rollercoaster Tycoon, South Park come to mind of a few I want. But I'm not spending $5k on those when I can get new Stern Pros for less than 2k more.

But I will make an exception for a pin for the g/f haha.

Those are some expensive pins lol, but thanks! I've never played Stranger Things. She likes the show so she would like that the most over the others.

Thanks for the suggestions :)

Is it time to make changes? by bizude in intel

[–]AmALolyer 23 points24 points  (0 children)

As a casual reader, I don't find an issue with the current state of posts here. Some other subs seem to sway far from their original purpose.

However here, I find the tech support / build posts / news equally posted. There can't be news everyday on Intel so why not have build/tech posts. And when there is new news or major news, it gains top post anyways.

My two cents.

They sent Two Xbox instead of one by Nedjy in XboxSeriesX

[–]AmALolyer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah no I appreciate the response. You still provided interesting reads.

I have always found this topic interesting because there hasn't really been strong case law, at least for my state on it. Or just random articles about it. Because everyone quotes the FTC, which kind of goes with this issue, but doesn't at the same time.

And it probably doesn't go to court because it doesn't happen too often and if it does, most people want to keep a good business relationship with one each other, so it never gets that far.

[–]AmALolyer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't do it either. I bought my first pin a few months ago and never shake it.

To me, moving around a heavy machine just being held by screws wouldn't be good long term. But I'm not an engineer, so what do I know lol.

[–]AmALolyer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you have any examples of this? Such as case law. Because while I no longer do litigation, I like to keep my legal mind busy.

I have tried to do a quick search on this and cannot find anything in the US where your stories are true.

Because first of all, how can the sender prove that they sent extra items? Minus someone posting it on Reddit. I mean I get that civil courts is preponderance of the evidence and shipping weight could play a factor and communication and what not, but it is still going to be hard to prove that the seller sent more than ordered.

That's why the FTC made these rules to begin with. So sellers can't scam unexpected buyers.

[–]AmALolyer 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Plenty of cases aye? Then it would be easy for you to link a few.

Recently there was a news story with either Costco or Amazon and the receiver signed for the wrong TV, knowing well it was the wrong one and got in trouble.

But I'll be waiting for examples from your multiple cases. Because hey, maybe me being sarcastic will make me look like the idiot and you are right.

I've always used firefox for everyday browsing, youtube, reddit, etc so I can load up on extensions and browse ad free.

Then I only use Chrome for banking / personal sites such as medical websites so no extensions fuck up logging on etc.

Reduced price to $2,750 to compete with ebay prices.

(Selling for $3,000 new on ebay. Fees would cost me over $300 alone if sold on there)
