I'm pretty sure that regardless of how "total" the collapse may be, any collapse lets people benefit from whatever survival training and preparedness they may have. Even if you don't need it, it never hurts to have it.
Quiet diplomacy does not mean "the government does whatever the hell they want, legal or not, and gets a pass".
I think it's funny that the government thinks it's OK to take our information, but when we get to see their information, they cry like a five year old with a skinned knee.
It's the clear strategy of the governments involved to blame the leaks for causing the problems. Failure to give the government a pass on the grounds that it "should have remained secret" makes you a terrorist.
First, the Wii U costs too bloody much, while the cost savings of removing the Wireless capability is negligible. Even an old G-chipset would do fine here.
Second, the practical difference is quality. AI becomes predictable, while a long string of new opponents keeps it fresh.
The least important feature of this particular console. They strip out the Internet capability, which is an utterly stupid move when they don't have a counterpart with that connectivity. Especially when bundling this console with a game that is a lot of fun online with basically no interaction other than actual gameplay with other players. You don't get to spin that as "safer".
It doesn't really seem like a very traditional Nintendo move. The top-loader NES did away with the click-down cartridge, the Advance SP offered a backlight and rechargable battery. Gameboy Color brought color into the games. The DS Lite offered several advantages over the original DS.
What does the Wii Mini do that brings something new to the table?
You can talk all you want about problems. I'm talking about solutions.
Much as peace is not simply the absence of war, allowing a problem to continue unchallenged is not a solution to a problem, nor does it make a problem go away.
It takes a special queen to pull that off successfully. I think if parliament were as broken as the US Senate and House, and if the PM were caught openly lying as we've found in presidents present and recent, it's vital to have a way to jettison the entire lot and bring in new blood.
That sounds like even more of a waste of time than it did before. And yes, in most cases, those people's jobs are a waste of time. Yours sounds like one too.
I too avoid these stations...and I also now wear headphones more. I've also considered abandoning my polite hat-doffing when inside stores and doing my shopping with my fedora pulled low over the tops of my sunglasses.
*shrug* even if you don't like the system, if you're paying for the system you may as well reap what you can from it. After all, the money one would have used to pay for the scooter was already spent by the government somewhere when they took it as tax money.
Hunger Games: Congress Edition. Probably a good idea, actually. Until that one catastrophic group of complete idiots gets bamboozled by one powerful individual.

I expected this to be nothing but a Star Trek joke, but I'm fascinated to learn that this could be a real thing.

It's a good question. I've got a regular Wii and two Gamecubes, so the answer doesn't bother me as much as the strategy.
Well, I never intended it as an exhaustive list. Even the Gameboy Pocket brought a larger and arguably more advanced screen.
Be that as it may, the kids who want to solo game would probably enjoy a lot of the downloadable classics which are unavailable to this Wii.

Everyone keeps a watchful eye on diplomats. It's not even remotely like what the NSA has been up to.

That should keep your bandwidth nice and regular.
I'm already married, I don't wear it at home. Problem solved!
Oh, come on. Glomar Explorer aside, It would be cheaper to just buy one from Russia.
I only hope enough of us refuse to do business with such locations. Otherwise, our alternates become the next stations with those pumps.
You do understand that as the owners of Motorola Mobility, Google IS the OEM for MM products?

You know what would really solve the problem? The government ceasing to behave unethically and outside the scope of the constitution.

The problem is, they'll just start dumping their waste even more illegally and more dangerously if this system goes into effect.
