7·2 days agoFollow up: WiiU retail price
- Price at launch: $300
- Price adjusted for inflation: $336
Original Switch:
- Price at launch: $300
- Price adjusted for inflation: $316
Honestly, I think anything over $325 is too expensive for this. It’s just an iteration of the previous model. It will be interesting to see what happens after the early adopters grab the initial shipments (how much will price go down, will sales drop precipitously if price does not go down enough?).

(Also, how depressing is it that the price of things has doubled in just 20 years?)
Original Wii retail price - $250 at launch. Included Wii Sports and controller.

Just need to find synonyms or some other coded language or simply spell it out. Work around these stupid rules.
3·6 days agoIf this is true, Apple will have to tread very carefully here. 23&Me was forbidden by the FDA from telling you about health risks related to your actual DNA. Now Apple is going to make your health diagnosis based on a Magic 8 Ball?
Took them long enough.
3·8 days agoI’m reminded of a boxing movie I saw once — The actress goes to a boxing match in her fancy gown and blood splatters on it when the guy in the ring gets socked in the face.
I would imagine dressing up like this at a boxing match has to do with haves/have nots. Basically, they’re rich enough to watch the poors beat the shit out of each other for their enjoyment.
It’s certainly not practical to wear your finest clothes just to get blood splattered on them.
4·8 days agoAnother stupid decision from Google.

Actual story:

“As for Greenland this is a matter for two specific countries. It has nothing to do with us.”
And then Russian rep goes on to talk about how great it would be to work with the US to invest in exploiting the arctic.
So much for “threatening” the US.
Nypost — am I supposed to believe this story? Are there any other sources besides Murdoch trash?
Well if Google is forced to sell it off or spin Android off into its own company, we’ll see if it remains private.
A lot of people with back problems unable to get up from their chairs. I’m guessing it would become commonplace to see people rolling onto the floor.
I dunno how non citizens even get through the system, accidentally or otherwise. You have to register to vote, and at the polls you have to present an ID which is checked against registered voters.
Whoopsie! I guess that’s why Steve Jobs had a policy of not announcing things that weren’t ready to ship.
Could be comments on an instance you’ve blocked, or that your instance has blocked, or that haven’t propagated to your instance yet.
I’m down with democratic capitalism as long as there are strong regulations and socialized services like medicine, fire, police, utilities, and roads. Does that make me a democratic socialist?

Who’s throwing away the plastic eggs? We reused ours every year.
