I think all the console makers sell consoles at profit anymore.

Hence why the prices are stupid high. especially when you consider they are nothing but slightly modified AMD APU computers.

I’m sure this totally wont backfire and screw over legitimate owners due to some totally unforeseen glitch or idiocy on nintendos part.

I don’t deny there was some hysteria around the subject.

but given how stupid the average human is… its probably better to err on hysteria, than to err on common sense, when you need to build public awareness and support for something critical.

lots of cars too, probably. Its totally not unreasonable for a car to be on the road for 10/15/20 years.

Y2K was like the ozone.

It became a big nothing issue because of the spreading awareness, hard work, and other activities that went into preventing it.

So like I said in another post.

The problem with crisis is always the people.

If nothing happens, cause of the hard work to prevent it, people riot over it being a big waste of time cause nothing happened

if something happens, then people riot because no one worked hard to prevent it.

Sure pal.

Sure buddy.

oh wow the .ml user is getting super offended over criticism of china/russia.

how original

back in our day, our stupid wasnt malicious mass destruction or food tampering.

It was actual stupid shit, like trying to jump over your friend as he raced towards you on his bike, or falling off a roof, Shit that only hurt yourself, if anyone. Wasnt breaking and entering and destroying shit so people in the next town over would think you were cool. We were stupid, but we werent that stupid.

I doubt they’d take the average American. Wont fit in the tunnels.

My question was “was there ever a good trend from tiktok”

Icebucket challenge was from before tiktok existed.

So kinda proving my point.

yeah, the cinnamon challenge was dumb… but it didnt involve mass destruction, psychotic behavor, or contaminating food\ in stores.

So its hardly comparable.

Also it wasnt Tiktok. Predates it, significantly.

Trump is more like to stir up trouble on the thought he could come in and annex the land after everyones dead/weakened.

the people problem of any crisis.

If you did nothing, and it becomes a big problem, everyone riots over why you did nothing about it.

If you raised awareness, busted ass, and prevented the issue from happening… then everyone riots over how much of a “waste” it all was since nothing happened.

Give it time, I’m sure we’ll have Vietnam 2 before long.

Lots of chromebooks have bog standard barrel jack plugs.

I remain utterly convinced that Tiktok is nothing but a chinese psyop experiment to see how far they can manipulate people into actions that would otherwise be prevented by our brains screaming in self preservation.

Has there ever been a “good” trend on tiktok? Every week its just another destructive thing that gullible idiots are being tricked into doing.

What i saw they were shorting the charging ports, not the USB slots.

I fucking hate this.

Especially when they basically self-hypnosis themselves into the placebo affect and swear that their magic powdered crystal enema can fix everything.

I’d rather just make it easier for the assassin to get me and end the bullshit on day 1.
