Well, I for one as pre-ordered a Switch and a copy of the limited edition of Zelda. (It was a late Saturday night, I was weak... I don't want to talk about it). Because, screw the haters! (Yea, we'll see about that, I doubt it will be the dumbest thing I've ever thrown a lot of money at...

More like, gamers who only has time to play while on the can... Like me, sold!

I drive a Volvo from 1990 and have never had any major problems with it. It is however costing me close to the equivalent of 1000$ a year in preemptive maintenance...

The Wii U controller can't reach neither my bathroom nor my bed. I like the concept but that is its biggest flaw. This however seems perfect! As for the performance capabilities... well I got my PC for that so who cares, I just need something fun to play for half an hour a day to unwind and...

Heh, that's nice I guess. They really should make it about Ralph and crew having to deal with their franchise getting rebooted... That could get interesting!

It's basically a modified mistranslation of my last name into English that I came up with when I was 14-ish. It's kinda stupid but it stuck and I have grown quite fond of it.

Extremely slow and further limited by my brain's inability to efficiently come up with what to type.

A friend of my dad's had quite an ingenious way of dealing with them... Since telephone sales people have quite shitty jobs with terrible terms and my dad's friend being the local union leader he started to inform them about their rights and basically tried to sell THEM an union membership...

Abandonware? 3 for 2 from the bin in the back of the shop? Requiring dedicated extra hardware? Yeah, I'm done too.

I drove an automatic once... it was the second worst experience of my life, felt like I had no control over the car what so ever, like the bloody vehicle had a mind of its own and intended to kill me! So, yes. Manual all the way!

Fair enough, but still, nothing lasts forever. Mechanical hard drives will wear out with time or, like all mechanical systems (especially rotating ones) subjected to intermittent loads, suffer fatigue.

So, now it's a question of who'll kick the bucket first, the author or his computer? Slightly insensitive comment aside, while it's a good idea to keep your work safe from viruses and whatnot it might not be the smartest idea to keep it all on antiquated hardware that might fail...

A rabbit I once had got a small wound on his neck that got infected and grew into a horrible mess of dead tissue and blood that covered a large area of the neck. It was a difficult decision for a kid to make but I finally called my uncle to come visit bringing his .22
