I’ve been saying for the past two years that Apple should stop doing business in the EU, but every time that I bring that up someone points out the manufacturer of the chip making machine is based in the EU therefore no one can pull out.
Gross.

Nintendo lost my interest. I stopped playing the Switch 1 back a couple years ago. I still have it... but I no longer feel like it will even work later, so I should sell it and any games I have.
I've lost every penny on any download only titles. The physical carts are the only ones GameStop will by for pennies.
Too bad, as I loved playing Mario multi-player with friends kids all the time. Now I just feel like there are better things to do.
So say we all.
I prefer the obvious product placement in old movies, tv shows. How funny it is to see product placement all over the place on the kitchen shelves of Seinfeld, the sugar cookie of Honey I Shrunk the Kids.
The list could go on.
I was going to say the same thing.
I live in a big city with multiple "stores" that all lack the quality items that I search for. I guess I'm unsatisfied with low quality "options" offered to make more profit for retail stores.
The opposite is true of privately owned stores with products. Most of the time specialty stores such as this have on hand the highest quality items, even with a markup, I am able to find the item to keep, instead of buying some throw away item at a retail store.
Who has time to walk around looking for their needed items only to find that they are OUT OF STOCK, or no longer carry that product because their profit margin was too small.
If local companies would carry quality products on their shelf, and KEEP THEM IN STOCK, then I would shop local instead of ordering from online retailers.
Many people forget that "access to products" is very minimal to most. Many times, complete areas of the country are controlled by the same grocery stores, products are blocked from being sold, people must drive 1hr+ to get natural groceries of quality.
Shipping and delivery is becoming the new grocery store and shopping center.
Ha ha, we are already living the Jetsons.
Many people have central heat and air, and a closed in dome environment of their home. Where they go to their closed in garage and get into their space fairing craft, proceeded to maneuver themselves to the tall skyscraper in which they pull into a closed garage controlled by central heat and air systems. They go to work for the day and go home. Now, of course many people work outside of the office, but that is never covered in the Jetsons.
Everyone is always wearing space suit of some type to protect from the outside harsh environment.
I use a lot of software. Buggy as all get out apps gets tossed for apps that work.
Being stuck with buggy software from the 1940’s sounds worse to me.
