  • It seems like Massachusetts Best Buys did not get the memo. I hear all these stories about people hating Best Buy over pushy employees and have the opposite experience. The stores only have 1-2 employees on the floor and the duty of those employees seems to be to hide from customers. If I ever need help finding an item or want something from a locked display, I have to spend 15-20 minutes running around the store trying to catch a ninja.



  • Keeping skin pretty is completely out of the realm of reasons for religious coverings tho

    Isn’t it? I assumed that that is a big reason that religions that start in a desert demand that all members, regardless of gender, cover most of their skin in clothing

    “Son, wear your long sleeve shirt. You know how prone you are to sun burn.”

    “But dad, it is so hot outside and my clothes are so stuffy and I will only be outside for 15 minutes, tops.”

    “Well guess what, son. I just spoke to God and he told me that boys who don’t wear long clothes outside go to hell. That is why you turn red and painful from sunburn, to remind you that you will roast in hell.”








  • You still get company swag? In the 2010’s, I got a ton of it, but not anymore. Maybe it is just that the company I was working at got too cheap to give out swag and when I switched jobs, I joined another cheapskate, but I assumed that it was the same everywhere.

    I have enough company and recruiter swag collected during the good years that I have not needed to buy t-shirts, especially because I generally wear a collared shirt over them, so I don’t care what logos and slogans they have.





  • I assume that the PS5 Pro is great for its target audience: people who care about getting the best possible graphics on a console. They bought it, they tried it, they loved it, and they praised it. The issue with the PS5 Pro is that not everyone fits into that niche. For people who are not playing on giant 4K TVs, what is the benefit? What does it provide that a regular PS5 (or even a PS4) does not? Sony has not provided an answer, from what I have seen.
