Whenever I really have to pee I say "why did I drink all that crab juice!" out loud and no one knows what the hell I'm talking about.
Yep. That's $1.04b taken from the pockets mostly people who should be trying to put it to savings, not giving away money on a pipedream. Giving it to a winner who statistically will likely have their life ruined by such a windfall.
It's goddam stupid. The "causes" the lottery pays back to, like education, should be funded by taxing those who don't need the extra money, not by duping people who desperately need every dollar they earn.
Next line that you left off speaks to that...still.
"That's my position. We just haven't figured out how to do it yet."
That hits hard. Will we ever figure out how to do it here?
This might be the most memorable quote from the entire run of the West Wing for me. Our teachers are doing their job out of good will and our society is taking advantage of them because their value far outstrips what they are paid.
This was before my political consciousness, but I feel like 1992 has an argument, but maybe that was just because of Perot...
Makes sense to me. OSU and WSU should have whatever is left of the Pac12's carcass, including attempting to repopulate the conference if they want to.
Yeah, wouldn't need that unless it was something more, I suppose. Either a super fancy controller or something else.
My money is on Steam Controller 2, but what do I know.
I really doubt this is the primary reason. I think it was multifaceted, but really the people in the business of designing phones were already using Bluetooth exclusively and felt that it was good enough. Some designs probably rushed it as a means to sell more premium headsets (Apple, Samsung), other saw it as removing an unnecessary redundant feature that was more prone to breakage and a waterproofing difficulty (Google). I think it really just came down to the personal preferences of the (affluent) people who were doing the designing, not necessarily a purposeful cash grab. It really was not great since wired headphones were way cheaper than their Bluetooth counterparts. Luckily Bluetooth has gotten much better and less expensive. I think there should be options for both.

I think it's visible on the controller settings menu. I also had to go looking for it. The sneaking thing is used so frequently that doing it by hand almost caused me to switch over to using my PC entirely.

Trying this out now. It's awesome. Might have found a new doomscrolling default...
Talk about it. This looks (and is) BAD. It's 2023 and these fucks are stuck in the past.
