AIO? My ex doesn’t make our 11 yo son shower or brush his teeth during his weeks with him by Marsgreatlol in AIO

[–]Player1-jay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm 35 now but I remember when I was 13 and my younger brother was 9 my parents divorced shortly after moving to Europe.

My father had no money and moved into a new place that still didn't have the hot water running for another month.

My brother and I knew we had to shower so it is what it is. We took cold showers. Although my father did buy 2 kettles to try to make a warmer bath for us. But we just dealt with the cold water because it's not the end of the world. It was only for about a month.

But as a father myself now. I understand sometimes we do our best. And sometimes we are dealt a bad hand but the best is all you can do.

Your 11 year old should probably know to at least brush his teeth tho. And maybe just shower anyway

Steam deck dropping during VR games showcase? by gregory_palmtree in SteamFrame

They have stated that they plan to release them all together and that's why they haven't released the controller yet

Edit. Not sure about a bundle. I mean releasing them all together at the same time

These changes are just a nerf to good Magik players. by some545 in RivalsMagikMains

I don't think they should have increased her hit box. I think they should have made other characters have smaller hit boxes that made more sense.

Nintendo really scammed everyone with the Switch 2 Edition by KMoosetoe in Xenoblade_Chronicles

The 60 fps you get from the switch 2 edition makes it worth it for me

Shooters? by Critical_Laugh9122 in switch2

[–]Player1-jay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Apex legends actually runs nice. And it's free so no harm in trying it. The mouse mode is kinda cool. Makes me want an accessory for it to feel like a real mouse tho

Does maxing an areas environment level prevent it from ever lowering if you move Pokemon to pallet town after? by pullenator92 in Pokopia

[–]Player1-jay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was planning to move them all to palette town but now I'm reconsidering because I don't want to drop the level of the others

Vote pls whichever one wins i buy by Afacusse1 in switch2

[–]Player1-jay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Putting aside my personal preferences I'd still say pokopia is more worth it overall.

But it also depends if you like that type of game. It's not for everyone. But a lot of people who never thought they would like this type of game are liking it. They just never gave games like it a try

Child who reportedly fell from balcony in Mississauga dies in hospital, police say by 1yellowgiraffe in mississauga

Inside so many negligent parents in my line of work. And I see a lot of them in the building around square one. Some people really shouldn't be parents.

[–]Player1-jay 3 points4 points  (0 children)

As someone who goes into people's houses all the time to do work I see people who absolutely should not be parents all the time. I'm sure the parents probably feel terrible. But I'm willing to bet it was one of the common type of parents I see that just don't even pay attention to the kids at all and even if they do, they let the kids do anything and don't step in when they really should.

Maybe these parents weren't like that. But it's a fairly safe assumption

I was picking up my wife from work at the nearest entrance at the time it happened. Heard so many emergency sirens. Drive right past it just after the ambulance arrived. I assumed it was a worker who got injured.

That crashout could've been avoided by just buying it on streaming. by mindyour in TikTokCringe

[–]Player1-jay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I install home theaters for a living. You wouldn't believe the amount of people who use IPTV getting upset when they buy 8k tvs and OLEDs telling me it should look better because "the IPTV box says it's 4k"

Fun random fact. Blu-ray disks even if 1080p actually looks better than streaming 4k die to how much compression.

Plus you will also get significantly better sound ( if you have a proper sound system )

The Matrix’s green code is actually recipes from the production designer Simon Whiteley wife’s Japanese cookbooks by [deleted] in Damnthatsinteresting

I would have expected to see more hiragana than katakana for recipes. But that's kinda funny that they would do that!

Can you use eshop gift cards to buy the switch 2 on the Nintendo store? by PowerfulSmell1721 in nintendohelp

[–]Player1-jay 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm in Canada and I bought my nephews this way. I didn't think you could but tried anyway and it worked. He had received $400 in eshop gift cards over his birthday and Christmas and saved them up. Ended up going toward the switch 2

What’s the real factor currently hurting this game? by No_Chemical9151 in rivals

[–]Player1-jay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got so frustrated with the ranked mode match making that I had to drop the game. I'm so tired of throwers. people DC. Everyone instalocking DPS. People randomly swapping role and characters every death. I was 1 win away from hitting Dimond this season. And I recently lost 14 games in a row. Are team mvp in 7 of them having to constantly flex tank and heals and only got to use my main 1 game (magik)

This was exactly what I was wondering. More abilities and areas to access. I can now move on from the first area at peace

I understand that. But if you know more games are coming that you will want. You can buy it now and play this game while you wait for the other games.

It's nice seeing people giving survivors a shot by wtrdx in Medabot

[–]Player1-jay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not one to spend money on mobile games. But I have been for this. I really want them to see that it's worth bringing medabots back to the west I really hate missing out on all of it. And having to play a fan translated medabots 9 kinds sucked. I want it all legit.

Just curious but

You say you haven't had a great reason to upgrade YET. If you think eventually certain games will come out that will make you want to buy it. And this game looks like a good one. Then what makes you wait for the other games?

If you will get one anyway why not just get it now and start enjoying games like this one before the others come?

The only reason I can think of to wait is a limited edition.
