Why I Never Replaced a Joystick in a DualShock 3 Controller by Eeyore_Syndrome in c/[email protected]

[-] Eeyore_Syndrome 3 points 3 days ago

My DualShock 4 lived a very long time.

I think the mini charging connector broke before the stick drifted.

Now I've had 2x refurbished DS5 from GameStop.

One stick tore off from broken down rubber/material. The other stick drifted real bad, after both extended plans ended too.

Current purple DS5 was new from Best Buy last July.

It started drifting three weeks ago.

I bought the extended plan and they said I can exchange it or use as a store credit towards a different controller (I see the edge joystick module is out of stock everywhere lol).

Also the restaurant association of America can suck me.

Working on bringing back 1919, since..... 1919.

"For the last 100 years, the NRA has lobbied consistently to maintain the subminimum wage for tipped workers, and to maintain the lowest possible minimum wage for all other restaurant workers."

Child labor ✅
Wage slavery ✅
Abolish benefits ✅
Monopoly on their bullshit certifications ✅

Anyway, abolish tipping.

Pay staff and cooks especially living wages.... maybe toss in profit sharing.

Anyway, I only cook at home now.

People don't deserve my energy anymore.

On my Pixel 8 Pro on 14/July 5 it's still pretty limited:

I look forward to this. I really just need help enhancing green and red since for me they wash out into brown/gray 🥹.

Now for pesky lack of real life accessibility 👀.

[email protected]: Should I get a phone number through the US lifeline program to use on websites and businesses? by Eeyore_Syndrome in c/[email protected]

If you're already on a cell plan then either port your # to lifeline or STFU.

Some people actually need the program.

That's just my opinion.

So I am reposing here.

I'll be voting with my wallet going forward.

"I, Commander Eeyore_Syndrome, pledge to not buy my Python MK II until August 7th, 2024". And I was an Odyssey pre-order even.

Who will join with me?

Fascist volunteer mod locked on the official forums because "petition".

About 1 in 4 US adults 50 and older who aren't yet retired expect to never retire, AARP study finds by Eeyore_Syndrome in c/[email protected]

[-] Eeyore_Syndrome 45 points 2 months ago

Remember that time they moved retirement to 67 in 2015?

I don't because I was too busy working 50 hrs a week @$14-19$/hr paycheck to paycheck.

And now I have fibromyalgia at 38 and hope I die at 50.

Thanks America.

Hey Frontier. How about an engine upgrade to DX12 and some FSR 3.0 instead?

I have to say. I never understood why the grandmother in "Mars Attacks" laughed so hard when they "Blew up Congress".

Now I do.
