And I guess they really care about cost too, because if they wanted it as easy as possible, it would have a treadmill and a box with a 360° barcode scanner or something and the person could be spared from the whole bagging area thing.

But yeah, that simplification and accessibility ends up being what alienates me because of how significant it is. Hopefully there are enough of us that they’ll keep some cashiers around.

I hate how self-checkout treats me like a child and speaks and prompts me a zillion times for things I don’t want. How many bags do you want to buy? None, because I have mine like 90% of people, geez. How about a donation? Unexpected item in bagging area. TAKE YOUR RECEIPT. Nooooo

And it even SPEAKS. LOUDLY. It burns through ALL my patience within seconds.

If it just let me scan my stuff having me tap on a touchscreen, and then just let me stay the payment machine in a single touch, and it were silent … I might tolerate it. Otherwise, get back, demon.

The only times when I’ve seen anyone complain about the length of lines were times when it was clear staffing was very much insufficient. Line all the way to the back of the supermarket and literally 2 cashiers total.

Dissent against the government.

What the fuck are those judges smoking

Then boneless shouldn’t be allowed to be on the packaging. Largely de-boned. 99% bone-free. Those would be acceptable.

But boneless implies you scan the items and reject any and all pieces that would still have a bone in them.

I hate this.

I’ll be honest I personally assumed ducks only ate fish.

I really don’t think this kind of maneuver from payment processors should be allowed at all.

Or maybe there should simply be a more diverse array of payment processors?

If that doesn’t reveal anything, maybe try to get your hands on a dirt cheap alternate GPU. Memory and GPU would also be my two possible suspects.

Also GPU driver I guess but I feel like you wouldn’t be alone with the issue then.

If people had to leave their home to pay for a Steam purchase, they’d buy a lot less. But considering how many unplayed games I have, it’s not like that would be such a bad thing… Lol

That doesn’t sound convenient at all

Astrophysicists are like an oversensitive grandma who hears an electric guitar and thinks nearly every music is metal

Granted. The wish spell has never existed, so you can’t use it.

Isn’t that killing the thief rogue subclass’s use magic device ability?

Hmm, that works, but only for spells in your class list. That won’t allow you to cast legend lore as a wizard, for instance

I hope we can reach the point where everything is convenient to switch to whatever you preference/physical controller is in every game.

Maybe one day.

I like their button layout better though.

Ah, that’s the risky use of Wish though. It comes with a chance of losing the spell forever.

Xbox has influenced PC gaming too much for that.

Wish, but for emulating other spells. Literally anything I want, of 8th level or lower, as if it was already prepared? So handy.
