My Walmart has him marked down to $19 so I guess I'm getting a G1 Starscream today

I really gotta get a proper setup made for taking toy photos but the alternative right now was 'go outside in the nearly hundred degree heat' and no thanks.

Shows in the 2000s set in the near future came up with all these cool ways cellphones would look and look at the shit we have now.

They're just fucking rectangles with screen, that's so boring.

This is such a first world problem, I know, but I hate how my house's concrete walls means the WiFi signal is really only at full strength in the living room.

It's especially annoying because sometimes when I'm relaxing in bed and reading articles on my phone, the signal will get so weak it'll just disconnect entirely.

not a fan of how phone manufacturers have removed features like the headphone jack and microSD expansion from phones

also REALLY not a fan of people who defend removing those features, especially the anti-headphone jack types who go on and on about how 'the headphone jack is outdated' and all that nonsense.

I'm gonna get a dessert and then go to sleep.

I know for a fact that I'll end up waking up to take a piss in the middle of the night, so I'll brush my teeth then even if it's like 4am or some shit.

G'night I guess (well after dessert).

More reasons why I hate technology: my tablet wasn't charging at all for some reason, restart it and it says 1% (it was at 26% before I restarted it) and still wouldn't charge, restart it /again/ and now it's charging

I hate you technology. I hate you technology. I hate you technology.

What the hell I got like 5000 notifications lol

princessviola, to Anime
@princessviola@retro.pizza avatar

Does anyone else watch #anime but wouldn't really describe themselves as an anime fan?

Like IDK anime is just too broad of a term and saying 'I'm an anime fan' wouldn't tell you anything beyond 'this person enjoys Japanese animation'.

I'd rather tell people the genres, creators, and series I'm fans of specifically rather than just saying 'anime', y'know?

(sees multiple reports showing that Gen Z, on average, is less tech savvy compared to Millennials and Gen X)

Me, a late Millennial: Hahaha oh man. We're never gonna stop being unofficial tech support for people huh.

(Seriously teach kids tech literacy in school, yes they are surrounded by tech from birth basically but it's like all phones and tablets for the majority of them, not desktop OSes)

Honestly debating if I should take my laptop to get fixed at Best Buy rather than my local computer repair shop, for no reason other than I will need to go to Best Buy anyway?

Ugh I dunno, the local place is a lot closer though but there have been a couple times where they've been robbed and had all their stuff stolen...(granted I think the last time that happened was like 8-9 years ago but still)

Not a big fan of this toy-based MP-44 redeco Takara's revealed.

Something about giving such a toon-accurate Prime head the toy-accurate yellow eyes feels off to me. I get that it comes with both the more angular and more rounded toon Prime heads, but I feel they should've included a toy-accurate head option - I mean the toy-based redeco of MP-36 Megatron came with a toy-based face option, so why not Prime as well?

I miss handheld gaming y'all.

I mean like I know that handhelds still exist, of course, but I mean like I miss when handheld gaming was like unique games /made/ for handhelds as opposed to just being the same games as on home consoles/PCs but on the go.

I mean that's great too but I just wish both versions of handhelds could somehow exist at the same time.

This place getting hammered again for anyone else tonight or is it just on my end?

princessviola, to Autism
@princessviola@retro.pizza avatar

I'm honestly pretty fucking convinced that 'people online calling themselves autistic because they think autism is just being quirky' is not as big a problem as some of the complainers act like it is.

Cuz I'm just saying, I've seen tons of complaints about that group of people while never actually seeing anyone doing that.

(I'm also convinced people use these claims to disparage anyone self-diagnosed tbh cuz 'we must just be thinking we're quirky' lmao piss off)

Anyone else wish they could be an ojou-sama or just me?

princessviola, to mastodon
@princessviola@retro.pizza avatar

OK so like does #Mastodon on the web not show you that you have new notifications if you have your phone, with a Mastodon app (I use Tusky, FWIW), connected to the internet and getting push notifications about your notifications or am I just dumb?

All I know is that I had a few notifications that it didn't show me the number for on the web but on my phone, I had push notifications for all of them.

right, i think it's time to change the temperature on the AC. i put to down to 75 because i was feeling warm earlier but i'm going to put it back to 78 now.

princessviola, to Anime
@princessviola@retro.pizza avatar

I really do feel that some #anime fans on the internet never outgrew that phase when you think that anime is some amazing superior thing to Western cartoons and not just...cartoons but from Japan.

Bonus points when they go on and on about how 'American cartoons are just crap for kids' and then they name some anime they watch and it's series that are aimed at kids in Japan.

princessviola, to Nintendo
@princessviola@retro.pizza avatar

Back during the Wii, 3DS, and Wii U eras, Nintendo fans were constantly complaining about how Nintendo were selling old games on the VC individually and saying that they need to do a subscription service instead.

But now that they're doing that on the Switch, they're complaining about the subscription service and saying they should sell these old games individually again.

What do you even fucking want Nintendo fans, or do you just wanna complain?

Not a fan of escalators myself.

And by not a fan I mean 'I am scared of them'

Like I have a genuine phobia of them, even when they're not moving.

At the mall the other day, the elevator in Macy's was out of order and we had to use a (disabled) escalator as stairs.

GENUINELY was still freaking out and terrified while they weren't even moving and I was just walking up them like normal stairs.
