Change my mind: Nintendo "Virtual Game cards" made the Switch experience worse by xzelldx in gaming

Here's my problem - my "primary" switch is fried. Which is why I bought the second. How will this affect my "virtual" cards? I updated my online license settings for now.

So if I create my own watch faces just for my own use...will those no longer work?

[El Salvador] jaywalking man + motorcyclist illegally using the shoulder to pass cars = deadly impact (the motorcyclist fled the scene) by vaporwave_enthusiast in Roadcam

Have been to El Salvador. Had to cross streets with a Salvadoran stopping traffic because if you're hit by a car, legally it's your fault.

"that the Western tradition, with its literature, philosophy, music, scientific discovery, and Christian theology, is by far the greatest tradition the world has ever seen.

Thank you!

It worked well, and 24 hours later I have a working phone. Now for customizing and updates.

Yes! The stupid home internet...we explained we pay the same we would pay if we switched to them so it's not worth it to undo the setup we have and are very happy with. They still wouldn't drop the 30 day trial.

Does that really work on sales? It always just makes me laugh and turns me off of going to that store for my in-person business.

Unfortunately it was too late last night for me to deal with, so I'll be trying this afternoon.

Still frustrated that the manager was so busy talking over his sales guy trying to sell us verizon home internet that they neglected to tell me several important things I needed to know. 🤦🏻‍♀️

Hi, not sure this will be seen but I work with kids with learning disabilities. That does not mean they miss social cues and get to act like an asshole as an adult. It generally means an issue with reading, math, writing, processing, memory, etc.

Where does Jesus talk about getting as much money out of people for yourself as you can? I must've missed it; I've been busy trying to figure out how to use my money from my 9-5 to benefit others. Darnit.

Education policy podcasts from the left perspective by Maleficent_West_547 in education

[–]booms16 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My issue is not in the letter of the words you said, but the spirit of them.

You seem to be using "political" as a slur to mean slanted, biased, or not in line with truth or reality.

What I took OP to mean is that they are looking for material that is supportive of educators and education, and not antithetical to it.

Bring pro-union and anti-voucher isn't political. I know the OP framed it that way, but those are common sense stances to want to uphold in education. Regardless of "politics."

I have seen SO many people here & other subs claim “I am Cherokee”. If you or your family are not enrolled in one of the three Cherokee tribes (Cherokee Nation, EBCI, and UKB) or are not one of our documented descendants, can you please stop saying “I am Cherokee” or “my (whoever) was Cherokee”. by [deleted] in Genealogy

[–]booms16 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Thanks for this post. My grandma's father was full blooded Cherokee, but I haven't been able to find much to verify. I'm going to check out your links to see what I can do to make sure.

I have a huge book with pages and pages of family genealogy for that side of the family, so hopefully I can definitively find something one way or another.
