  When you get the replacement, you might want to avoid pairing it with anything else first just to be safe. Good luck!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Help using a page turner on Kobo Libra Colour⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Any chance that remote in particular just isn’t compatible with your model maybe?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Help using a page turner on Kobo Libra Colour⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Can you try resetting it and your Libra, then trying again?

  “We want you to pay your fair share of taxes to maintain the system you enjoy the benefits and protection of” = slur?

  Eat all of my shit and hair, Steve Roth.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is the "everyday stuff" supposed to feel normal? Do y'all just have a parent do things then when you're supposed to be the adult you panic?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  That seems kinda normal-ish: You just have to figure shit out for yourself if you haven’t already been taught. Ideally, your parents should teach you, but the flip side is you can’t teach someone everything and you can’t even know everything yourself. It’s more or less part of growing up and having anxiety over it is pretty normal IMO.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨“I genuinely feel GameNative could replace handheld PCs like the Steam Deck” — Inside Android’s Fastest-Moving Gaming Project, GameNative (my article!)⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t see this replacing my Steam Deck, but it might open up some impromptu gaming here and there.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I would say so, yes.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If I got in a collision with a car from the 70s with a car today, would not the 70s car win out since it would primarily be metal? If so why don't people buy more 70's cars?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  The car might sustain less damage, however, the occupant will receive more damage. People buy newer, safer cars, presumably because they like being alive and would prefer to keep doing that.

  Modern cars are designed to break before their drivers do, because you can’t replace you, but you can buy a new car.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Does the engine a game uses factor into your decision to buy it or not?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It can if the engine makes the game run poorly (I wouldn’t buy it) or not at all or if the engine is exceptionally well regarded and runs great it might make me a bit more inclined to buy the game.

  If it’s an engine famous for being janky, it might also make me delay buying the game until devs or modders fix it.

  Also, if the engine is known for being mod friendly, that would probably make me more inclined to consider buying the game.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What would/could the US government actually do if they found out the real identities behind all the "guillotine memes" that people post online?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  You say that, but all of their bullshit cases are constantly crashing and burning due to their own incompetence. Even when stuff makes it to a jury, their cases tend to fair poorly most of the time.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨So, how many of us see Moopsy when we look at the Artemis mascot *Rise*?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah, that was my first thought lol

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What would/could the US government actually do if they found out the real identities behind all the "guillotine memes" that people post online?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah, if they choose to do legally questionable or outright illegal stuff that needs to be fought and defeated in court or we’re in for some grim times.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What would/could the US government actually do if they found out the real identities behind all the "guillotine memes" that people post online?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Legally? Not a damn thing because it’s protected speech.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  He wasn’t, there was no such thing at the time and he refers to himself as a Jew in the bible. Christianity wasn’t named until after his death.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  They most certainly did: What do you think Easter is? Why do you think Christmas is in December when Jesus was not born during the winter? Many native pagan holidays were basically transformed into the modern Christian holidays you know today.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Steam lawsuits in a nutshell⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Accurate.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The first new Heroes of Might and Magic strategy game in over 10 years will launch this month⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah but they weren’t what they are.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The first new Heroes of Might and Magic strategy game in over 10 years will launch this month⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I was excited until I saw Ubisoft

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is Kagi Worth It?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Yes.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Do YOU consider Kanji difficult?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  English. I hated learning French and don’t really know it, but I’m going off of what others who do speak French have told me.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Do YOU consider Kanji difficult?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Spanish and Portuguese would probably be easier to learn than English, same for French. If you knew German and/or English, Dutch might actually be a little easier than you’d think!

  The amount of entertaining media out there definitely works in favor of English though, I have to agree with you there.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Do YOU consider Kanji difficult?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  You are the first person I’ve heard say English is easy to learn.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If you give the fae a false name which others would identify you as, can they still use that false name to control you?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  No, because it’s all made up and we live in the real world.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How long until the rise of games with mods turns into user created games.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I’d say maybe over 20 years ago?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Do YOU consider Kanji difficult?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Yes: It seems very complicated.

  To counter your argument about English: English is very complicated, reportedly it’s one of the hardest languages to learn because of all the exceptions to rules and the fact that it’s actually a bunch of different languages melded together.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  All modern cars are vulnerable, not just EVs. If you wanted something “hackerproof”, get an older vehicle with manual transmission and no infotainment center. No drive or brake by wire.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What's the weirdest argument you've gotten into with someone?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I had someone tell me I was full of shit and a coward for suggesting a full face helmet for downhill skating (for reference, DH skating can get you traveling at highway speeds). They were talking about if you wore a helmet, a regular park helmet would be totally fine because they’re designed for skateboarding falls. I tried to explain that park skating and DH are two totally different things, which need different gear and skills, but they just kept doubling down on their crazy bullshit. It was either a troll or an insane person but either way, I regret wasting my time on their bullshit. Hopefully the person we were trying to help just ignored their stupid ass.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Do most comedians invite heclers to their shows? And they go over the bit so it seems sporadic? And get them more views or clicks or whatever? Kind of like a magician does with a plant?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t know about most, however, it’s not unheard of to plant a heckler who you’ve rehearse with. Probably not a standard practice, but it’s happened.
