Basically every emulator developer will say that their platform is not for piracy but for backing up your legally purchased games, but it's usually just a "wink wink nudge nudge" type of thing for legal reasons.

I'm also thinking this is the case, especially since the kid's hat still has a tag on it. I imagine that would be a gift shop purchase.

In this economy??

Fabricated poverty and homelessness, medical and educational debts, corporate greed and consumerism, accumulating environmental issues that nobody with the ability to make change is willing to pursue, non-stop wars, political turmoil...

I don't know. I think the dead have it better.

We have a Shark robot vacuum, so I called it Sharknado.

Don't use GoDaddy though. I was searching for a domain on that site and after a few minutes it was taken.

There are reasons to avoid GoDaddy, but what you experienced isn't really a GoDaddy-specific problem. If a domain gets registered on one provider, it will be unavailable on all providers. Unless you are accusing them of falsely saying they were taken but are available for purchase at a premium. I don't think I've heard of them doing that, but who knows what kind of greedy tactics corporations will try these days.

These little ejector tools are useful for more than just SIM cards. CD/DVD ROM drives have force eject buttons inside tiny little holes that these can reach and push. Many hardware reset buttons are also hidden inside tiny holes.

You could use an unfolded paperclip in a pinch. One of my air purifiers has a reset button inside a hole that is slightly too thin for the paper lips I have on hand. But the SIM ejector tool I keep around fits perfectly.

The saying is "vote with your wallet". It just means that if you are unhappy with what a company is doing, stop buying their products.
