Okay. So they do this in Japan. The plastic used in the wrapper is different than the plastic in the bottle. They require different processes to recycle. It’s also far more efficient for regular people to just rip it off and throw one in one bin and the other in another bin in their own homes than it is for a sorting facility to go through mountains of this stuff trying to get it right every single time. Frankly I wish more places did it this way.

I hope this explanation will make things even less infuriating.

Welp, this might be kbin for me. It’s the only circumstance I’ve really found a PWA necessary, although I’ve considered making PWAs of some online shops I frequent.

I suspect Apple is eliminating PWAs from safari in the EU just because they don’t want to be forced to allow 3rd party browsers to do the same. Let’s go ahead and throw the baby out with the bathwater.

I’ve actually got a U.S. apple account on an iPhone bought in Japan, and living in the EU temporarily. It’ll be interesting to see how this is going to play out for me.

So, in other words, the AVP is apparently popular enough that journalists write articles if some end up getting returned. I guess that’s quite impressive.

Is a meta account required?

Ads don’t bother me as much as their invasiveness. I block ads because…

  1. if a business is dirty enough to resort to interference with popups to get attention, I’m not spending money there. Period.
  2. I don’t want to support mass surveillance perpetrated by the industry.

Give me simple tech ads on tech sites, grocery ads on store fronts, travel ads on travel articles, etc.

Yeah… multiplayer was actually not that good in this game. Camera was unforgiving, online was weird and felt detached and non-inclusive. I bought the game to play locally and online with family, but all of us lost interest by the time we hit some cloudy area. In contrast, I had a great time with that Mickey game and the Yoshi one from a few years back. Wonder’s multiplayer should really not be getting fluff pieces.

There’s a community profile for Monster Hunter rise that maps the quick access wheel to the right touch pad really well. I wish I could do whatever that guy did but for world as well. It’s really useful.

I would be if I still had local friends to play with.

I’d say that’s because PCs have become more console-like. I’m personally gaming a lot on a deck now, although I still have zero desire to hunker down behind a desk and fiddle around with a mouse and keyboard, tinkering with settings and whatnot. Deck is a nice middle ground, and having access to a lot of older PC classics is fantastic.

Can PS and PC friends play together in this game, or is multiplayer locked to platform?

Yeah I probably would never have even gotten into gaming if it weren’t for consoles. PC games are fun, but gaming on a PC is not for everybody.
