GHD Platinum +. I have been using it for over 8 years now and it's still working like new. Best flat iron I have ever owned.

Only downside is there is a gap on mine between the plates and housing on one side that's just wide enough to catch a strand of hair sometimes.

+1 for Pangya!

What a fun and silly story this has! I have spent countless hours playing this! Overall my favorite game on the PSP.

Honestly the only real negative is the gotcha system for getting most of the accessories.

Years ago, I once started a new warehouse job, and on day 4, as I was moving inventory on a pallet jack, I see a guy in a forklift zipping by...wearing headphones...plugged into an ipod.

Everyone just accepted this. I didn't, and I quit at the end of my shift, and told them why. I wasn't about to get killed by someone driving a forklift who can't hear their surroundings. Maybe I overreacted, but with how common forklift accidents are, I wasn't taking the chance.

Thank you for saying that.

A lot of people learn this kind of pranking from others and they don't see the harm in it, but it really is toxic behavior. I don't know why anyone would want to make a loved one feel bad on purpose.

A good prank will have everyone enjoying it.

As someone who has both the Switch 2 and the Switch 1 OLED, I appreciate the performance boost that some of my games get with the 2, but I miss my OLED after giving it to my partner. I have even borrowed it a few times for handheld play because of the better screen and longer battery life.

Ultimately it's up to you and how badly you want to play Switch 2 exclusives right now. Devs are going to keep making Switch 1 compatible games for years, especially given current global economic trends and the scaling back of larger game dev studios.

Personally, I would wait for Nintendo to make a Switch 2 with a better display. The display on mine is full of ghosting and once you notice it, you can't un-see it and it's disappointing.

I remember reading a while back that one person asking for a raise can be fired, but two or more people together asking for raises is considered collective bargaining and is protected under the law?

Didn't GoPro start requiring online activation of their cameras a while back? Like customers couldn't use it out of the box until they installed the smartphone app and activated it?

Edit: Looks like GoPro did try doing it by using dark patterns first and then getting more aggressive.

Yeah, the inertia only works like 60% of the time. I have the exact same trackball settings set on my steam deck, steam controller 1, and steam controller 2.

For inertia:

-Steam deck trackpads work perfectly.

-Original steam controller trackpads have interia about 90% of the time i flick my thumb.

-New steam controller trackpads work poorly and only have interia about 50-60% of the time.

Also is your username based on the Witchspring character? Or something else?

Yes! Love that series 🙂

I would love to get the most out of my trackpads, but trackball mode is currently broken on the new steam controller. Valve is aware of the problem, so hopefully they are working on a fix.

My mind has been changed by comments on here.

People can be quite informative, patient, and empathetic. They can write eloquently and persuasively. I'm glad for those people who have helped me change my mind on topics where my view was wrong because of my ignorance or flawed logic.

But in all honesty, I probably would have been better served by in-person public discourse on those topics instead of spending my time reading a bunch of takes from strangers on the internet. In person, you (usually) know everyone participating is real. You can gauge their sincerity by their tone & inflection, facial cues, and body language.

While my mind has been changed by people on here commenting, I still would much rather step away from the internet and talk to people face to face about the topics that effect us the most.

The way you talk to people on Lemmy is unacceptable. The name calling and aggression is not okay. Please do better.
