Just your normal everyday casual software dev. Nothing to see here.

People can share differing opinions without immediately being on the reverse side. Avoid looking at things as black and white. You can like both waffles and pancakes, just like you can hate both waffles and pancakes.

been trying to lower my social presence on services as of late, may go inactive randomly as a result.

Honestly I would use a stupid basic one that someone might try and use if they were guessing. Like a duress pin of 1-1-1-1, 1-2-3-4 or 2-4-6-8. It gets the people who take the device and then try and break into it without your permission as it’s almost certain they will at least try one of those three.

Worst case scenario they ask you and you say what it is and they give you a blank stare of “really?..” it’s not like they wouldn’t try a pin you gave them.

I doubt the majority of the nintendo customers are going to care to be honest. The only people that really got screwed were people decided to jump on board and buy the switch 2 after they raised the prices by 40$ in response to the tariffs.

Not saying that I think those customers who did spend more on it shouldn’t get a refund but, I do think that the majority of nintendo fans are either unaffected, or the amount wouldn’t be worth chasing. I highly doubt this instance will be the deciding factor on many fans for a “yea fuck Nintendo I’m out” reaction. There are far worse things that Nintendo has done that I think would have caused it prior.

Not only that, walmart won’t even do price adjustments anymore. they got rid of that about 3 or 4 years ago.

It used to be if you bought an item and the price fell within 14 days of purchase you could do a price adjustment on it. Now if you give the reason it’s cheaper as a reason for the return, they will refuse to do the exchange full stop.

it’s stupid because their return policy is still 90 days on most items, so you can just… return the item as a change mind, and then go and buy a brand new unopened one off the shelf for the reduced price… so not only are they out the money anyway but they also now have to sell or claims out a used product and are down a new unopened product ontop of it.

Amazon doesn’t do it anymore either, they used to offer price adjustments on anything within 30 days of purchase as long as you contact customer support. Now they force you to return the item and buy it again.
