I suppose I agree with your statement, but was just trying to (poorly) mention how it is sometimes hard to separate the company or product from the executive/CEO decisions.

Great summary “a lot of common error checking has gone into it. It can be told what you want without specifics that would only potentially be applicable to 1 system type.”
Appart from what the article mentioned, cards corrupt way too much on raspberry pis and similar devices compared to usb or ssd storage for example. This gives an easy option to replace them on some embedded device that you might not have full control over.
Google is not particularly innocent of children trying to be kidnapped by ICE agents in LA:

Edit: what I mean is, of forms of protest, this is mild compared to what the opposition is doing. This is just property, not lives torn appart.
While I read the title I was thinking “that sounds like Linux with extra steps” - maybe that’s good enough for some discussion.
They only provided replacements after the a class action lawsuit and specifically only replaced them in North America for the longest time. That was on July 2020. Five years later and the flaw is still there on brand new devices. There is nothing to applaud or give credit for.
Edit: to say that $80 is not expensive is to be completely detached from reality. 28% of Americans have savings of less than $1,000.
Not to mention those things are expensive AF. If I had to replace a part on my car that cost 25% of the cost of the entire car EACH time, I would just not buy from that company any longer (which is what I’m doing). Not sure why this person is writing paragraphs and paragraphs of excuses for Nintendo.
I understand that’s the purpose of a party game, but the mini games I saw were literally chose a thing and it will explode or it will not, no fun involved after you experience it once. Not even like a blue shell that still needs you to move forward.
Also there was a game that made you chose a 1 or 2 and once you got to a few players, it was impossible to win regardless if you got left with the option before the bee hive. At least make the dice spin faster when less players are around to make it feel random but fair (even if it isn’t).
There is a point where things move from fun and chaotic to completely random and less replayable.
A chance to be a much better Mario party if there is less RNG.
Saw a stream of some people playing Mario party superstars from a year ago and it looked very unfair/RNG based to the point of being boring.
Also we don’t pay taxes but will fuck up the roads with the extra weight. Good luck driving over potholes suckers!
Forgot expensive. Big, expensive, unreliable. The trifecta.
So fraud. It would be nice to get another FTX verdict at the very least. It could make those shit CEOs thinking twice before lying to peoples faces if it means years in prison.
