Cunts are useful and provide warmth and depth. These people have none of those qualities.

I only wanted the Xbox, not the bundle, but you are correct it was in stock at both Walmart and at Target when I inquired about it at Target.

Best but did price match! Their website was actually super easy to use to price match as well

I tried to price match this at target but they wouldn't honor the price because it wasn't in some system they use to price check other stores

How is this news?

That happens all the time. I went through several government contracts where a company would come and under bid the current contract by a significant amount, win the bid, offer the current contractors 3/4 of what they were being paid and fill in the rest with new hires. There is no continuity between contracts so unless a bunch of the old contractors took a pay cut to stay on they would come in and start from scratch with all new processes and procedures and absolutely slow down productivity for all those they were supposed to be providing support.

“If you don’t think that moving from Kevin McCarthy to MAGA Mike Johnson shows the ascendance of this movement and where the power in the Republican Party truly lies, then you’re not paying attention,” said Rep. Matt Gaetz (F-FL).

It really doesn't seem like the Republicans are paying attention to the threat coming from inside their own house.

I have learned a lot while I was setting up my NAS and all the *arr applications. It taught me a bit about networking and a bit about docker which I know is going to be helpful for me in the future. That kid you were talking about might be able to learn the something similar which might get them interested in the tech world and you have just created a future programmer, or network admin, or any number of other tech job. Those can be very marketable skills in a pool of people who seem to be less tech literate as tech becomes so easy to use.

I might buy one of their games just to offset someone who can't. I absolutely appreciate a business with this kind of attitude. Like someone else said, the people who pirate it probably weren't going to buy it anyway. Might as well get some goodwill out of it.
