@ThanosReXXX If you make one, tag me and I'll share my thoughts. lol

@WoomyNNYes My Switch doesn't seem to charge much slower than my ASUS tablet or Samsung phone. I've never felt a need for the quick charge. When I think I might play in portable long enough to need to charge without access to the dock, I have a big portable battery that I use that's strong enough to recharge all 3 devices to full without issue.

Not saying that it wouldn't be nice to have the option on a future hardware revision, but I don't personally have much issue with it.

Uh, I only have a Lite now, so I always play handheld, @WoomyNNYes .... If they can make it charge faster, that'll always be a good thing but it doesn't seem THAT bad, if I'm not playing it while it's plugged in

@WoomyNNYes Well, I do play handheld every now and then, but never longer than two hours or so, meaning I never run out of battery power, so my opinion on that is pretty much useless.

@Heavyarms55 I'll think about it, and I'll let you know or I'll tag you.

@Heavyarms55 Does Japan have Lotteries?

Yeah I'd say my lite charges quite fast, even when playing while plugged into an external battery, it charges faster than it drains. (Though I guess that also depends on the quality of the battery).

I haven't really bothered taking the og switch out of the dock in a while though so maybe the original model is different.

Yeah, I think the original was a bit slower but I played that exclusively in handheld mode, which is why I wanted to trade it for a Lite .... It wasn't any sort of problem for me, since I played it entirely at home, anyway but it'd obviously be good if they charged faster & the battery lasted longer for the portable aspects

@ThanosReXXX That would be a great thread, let me know if you make it!

@BabyYoshi65 Will do. I'd like to start off with a nice, elaborate post, so people could really imagine my dream world/house, so I do have to think on that for a while, if I decide that I'm going to post it.

In Mario Kart 64 you a character with an item and he is close behind you like 2 seconds later.
At least it's cool to hit them with a close range banana peel or green shell I guess.

Eh?

@ThanosReXXX Cool.

@WoomyNNYes Not quite the same style as the US but yes, lots of little lotteries. Like you buy a ticket in a convenience store and you might win a sticker or something, all the way up to a nice couple hundred dollar item like a top quality anime figure or a game console or even a smartphone. Not quite like, say, the Mega Millions in the US though. I'm from the US originally so that's what I was referring to in this case.

Ah. Nothing like a big bowl of jicama after a full day of cleaning.

Have you guys tried it? It's like my favorite root.

yeah there called massage parlors

@ogo79 Stop. That's nothing but a gross stereotype.

@ogo79 lol. You legend. 👍🏻

Not dead, just a busy weekend. Busier than it has been for some while, anyway. In non-virus-y times, this would only be labeled as mildly busy.

On the above-mentioned stereotype....That's something I'm not aware of, and I sense that remaining naive will be best. XD

@Anti-Matter Looks like @ThanosReXXX already answered your question (sorry I'm late), but visiting players far away requires a NSO sub.

@Heavyarms55 Dust particles breed worse than rabbits. One can spend their time lovingly dusting or wiping down a surface or knickknack, then come back later and find dust collecting again....

Looks like you and I share a general distrust of strangers and people we don't know well. Not that I think everyone is out to get me or run off with my stuff, but until I know someone and/or can watch them closely, they aren't allowed in my house or near my things. The latter because I had issues from lending things as a kid, which I think we've discussed before.

@ThanosReXXX My Nintendo here was recently offering a 7 day free trial as a redeemable platinum coin reward. Not sure if they're still running it - it seems to rotate in and out IIRC - but it's something I'm considering. The service has some passable perks, but backups are really the main draw for me right now. I've been vocal about my opinions of the service elsewhere - it's...okay in my opinion, but not great - and my likes/dislikes. A major point for me is that I'm a backup freak lol. I like having options.

From what I've seen of BBC Earth, it's pretty decent. I also like how most documentaries are informative and to the point, not like a lot of TV, especially "reality" shows these days....

@WoomyNNYes Hope you and yours are okay! We had a nasty derecho last month. No twisters in the area (though we do get them on occasion), but there was quite a bit of wind damage in more open areas. A (admittedly older) motel even had some of its roof peeled off. Fallen trees, snapped/blown over electric poles, and loss of power in a lot of areas.

@Tyranexx
Oh, cool.
If i have two Switches and two cartridge of ACNH, i can exchange the stuffs each other.

@Tyranexx Thanks Fortunately the homes around me were mostly spared (no giant mature trees close to the houses). So that's good. Local roads and some lights are still out today.

i know that.
i also know i like to joke

@ogo79 I can understand wanting a laugh, but surely you can make jokes that don't slander people that way. I'm just trying to ask nicely, please avoid that sort of humor.

@Tyranexx I swear sometimes I'll be dusting something spend all day doing it, and then like 3 days later everything needs it again...

And yeah. I try not to just assume the worst about everyone, but it's that not knowing that really makes me unsure of people regardless. Sometimes even when you think you know someone, you don't. I went to the graduation party of a classmate I had known for most of my high school career, 2 years later I saw him again on TV facing 1st degree murder charges after he and his friend had gotten high on some new synthetic drug and murdered the friend's parents with baseball bats... Suffice to say I'd never imagined he would do anything like that...
