@fjordtjie: Yes, you paid for your Wii.
And yes, it works with the games you've already paid for.
And the update is NOT mandatory.
But yes, future games you MIGHT purchase may require this update to function. What it means is that Nintendo is saying that games you DON'T own will only work WITH the update -- which Nintendo has every right to do, as you don't actually own those games yet.
See how this all makes sense, and how your rights haven't been violated?
This is exactly what my 1996 Ford Escort needs.
@wardawg: Eh, it's okay. I grew up in Milwaukee when Dahmer was going around eating people.
The USA has plenty of its own Cannibals... we don't need Canada's.
Now I feel a need to take an Alferd Packer tour of Colorado...
@Trae: Wait, no, I was right the first time. God I need to stop typing now.
@Trae: Look at me, f***ing up my own correction. I mean USCIS, not ICE. Tired tired tired...
@consumerwise: While you're making knee-jerk political statements, could you at least get the name of the government agency right? The INS was replaced by ICE years ago.
@OldSpinDoc: How about "They're all bad guys, and lets watch them kick the shit out of each other." :P
Wait - didn't Sprint do away with off-network roaming years ago?
I take my Sprint phone to the middle of nowhere several times a year, roam on some random tower, and don't get charged a thing.
@mrbenning: No, it's not a REAL disemvoweling - hence his name "supertechman-protests disemvoweling by disemvoweling himself"
When they actually disemvowel people, a little "A" icon appears in the comment also which explains what disemvoweling is when you click on it.
@G.O.B.: Come on!: As a Bears fan who has been living in Wisconsin for quite a while, I've just been laughing at the whole Favre thing. :P
@mamalicious: Re-read that. The TECH slapped his ID in the CUSTOMER'S face.
@BWoodle: Yeah - I screwed that reply majorly. I am unable to hit reply properly to an entirely different post. *rolls eyes at self*
@wvFrugan: I like to slap them in the face and yell "NO ONE IS DONATING TO CHARITY TODAY! NOT ON MY WATCH!"
Then I do a dance, and am usually asked to leave the premises.
@BWoodle: Well, Nielson ratings AND cost of production.
Reality TV is CHEAP to produce, so it may replace better rated scripted programs that cost more.
For example, Reality Show B only brings in 3/4 of the ratings of Scripted Show A, meaning ad revenue from Reality Show B is less. But since Scripted Show A costs three times as much as Reality Show B, Reality Show B may be the more profitable program to put on the air.
You dig?
Oddly enough, that shirt will help him. All the teller will remember is the T-shirt, as it's quite distracting, and will be less likely to recognize his face in a line up.
Of course, I doubt this was planning on his part, because if it were he would have worn a baseball cap as well -- which would have hidden his face from the frickin' cameras. Yeesh.
If he's smart, he's already burned that shirt to ash in a trash can somewhere (although I doubt he is). Wearing something loud an memorable only works as a defensive tactic if you GET RID OF IT AFTERWARDS so they can't catch you with it. :P
I'm sorry, but the local libraries are there for a reason: to USE them.
Anyone who says that people shouldn't use them is just being greedy.
@Matt Dalton: The thing is that Walmart has no legal right to detain you if you refuse to show your receipt. Period.
And a person should not get hassled ANYWHERE for refusing to show it. Period.
@Matt Dalton: Wow are you on the wrong website.
@bobert: Actually, Silverlight works pretty well on my MacBook (I have it installed because I need it to watch my Netflix Instant Play).
It's definitely not any worse than Flash... which is a mess on the Mac.
I had always heard it as "If it's brown, flush it down. If it's yellow, let it mellow."
And I've always thought it was a gross idea and flushed for everything.
