@Tyranexx Thanks!
Best wishes to you as well, and of course to all the other Chit-Chatters.

But erm... hindsight? ALL we will see, will be 2020 all day, all night, all year long. That's gonna be a weird experience for hindsight prophets, for sure...

@ThanosReXXX Thanks! I did mean this time next year. When we ring in 2021, 2020 will be in the past.

@Eel Well, I've had contacts for practically all of my adult life, so good vision was already never a given for me by default...

@Tyranexx Ah, darn. Must still be under the influence, seeing as you actually already mentioned that quite clearly...

@sixrings Didn't want to muddy up the soap-opera-effect thread, so I tagged you in chit-chat thread.

Correction, I got a Samsung NU8000 last year. I never installed the TV's OS update. I was worried an update might add crap to the TV's minimal menus, like the app menu, and I didn't want more clutter. And I was worried I wouldn't be able to undo it, if I didn't like the update changes. Did you run the update on your NU8300?

@link3710 there would have been recalls and likely a sells hit if not some sort of pause in manufacturing if it was a widespread issue. That in no way lessens those that have it (I have two pairs with drift myself) but you have to consider just how many systems and joycon have been sold. If it was some massive rate Nintendo would have been forced to recall systems and would have been placed under more pressure than a class action suit.

The internet makes everything the worst problem in the history of Earth.

At this point it’s more PR annoyance than a huge manufacturing issue. I do hope the figure out how to prevent it. I mostly use my procons to lessen wear and tear on my joycons.

Happy new year all!

@Woomy_NNYes They're black, actually. They're also are a good fit, which is an expected but welcome development!

@Vinny - Nothing like a new pair of well fitting boots. They set the mind aflutter with thoughts and dreams of what you might do in them. I switched from leather to canvas for my last pair. About a year in, they’re doing great. I hope it’s a fruitful relationship for you and your new boots.

Sweet, another quote I wish could sit in a gilded frame above many websites these days. Agreed 1000000%.

@ThanosReXXX Haha, no problem! I figured you missed that info the first time. 😁

I just bought the most United States thing ever!

A Banquet-brand frozen dinner. Salisbury steak. Can’t wait to taste the dollar store approximation of meat.

Unfortunately my quest for the Switch Lite Flip Cover has been unsuccessful. And tomorrow is the last day. Wish me luck.

@Eel it always give me a sense of joy digging into a tv dinner. Reminds me of my childhood in a strange way lol

@NintendoByNature I’m honestly looking forward to tasting it. Frozen tv dinners have always been this weird object of fascination for me, mostly because they aren’t that common in Mexico. Our nation wide predilection for quesadillas and frijolitos for dinner makes it hard to sell frozen chunks of mystery food, I guess.

Also the idea of a Salisbury “steak”. It sounds... Good.

@Eel lol I just always made them as a kid. Me and my bro when we were home from school or when my mom wasn't making us something. The best are kid cuisine if you ever have a chance to find them. I always undercooked the brownies...on purpose hahah

Edit:btw it's not steak. It's more like a grilled burger slathered in Brown gravy. I always called it poor man's steak. But in a good way 😂

@NintendoByNature @Eel - I used to beg my mom for Banquet or Hungry Man salisbury steak TV dinners, and every once in a while she would get me one. Loved em. The corn was chewy... yet good. My brother didn’t like them, so he got a frozen chicken pot pie instead. Also good, but not enough to sway me away from a TV dinner if I had the opportunity.

@Eel Is it the one with mashed potatoes? I think I have one in the freezer at work.

@bimmy-lee i even like the very "authentic" Italian chicken parm from encore. Is it chicken? Not sure..is it good? Only to 1 person in the U.S.

P.s. youre lookin at him 😉

@HobbitGamer it seems to be a smaller version with pasta instead of potatoes.

I saw the pot pies too. Considered getting one too, but I won’t have time to eat that many dinners.
