Remember when ads were just those animated gif boxes on either side of the content you actually consumed? Pepperidge Farms remembers.
Then they became annoying popups, to the point that EVERY browser ships with popups blocked by default. Now it’s all javascript occupying your screen everywhere. Plus all those invasive “Notifications”
I really hate how Nintendo doubled down on saying drift wasn’t a real problem with their original joycons. Two out of two original left joycons got severe drift after little use.

First gameshark I had for my PS1 was a little brick that went into the serial port. Fucker didn’t work and I couldn’t return it for a refund. Some time later, I got a gameshark as a CD and that one worked wonders. Too bad it would crash if I saved too many extra codes into the memory card.

Oh, it can also make boys get really fucking insecure, especially about their own size.
