This is getting tiring. I have to submit a form to tell Facebook to delete data about my face. Submit a form to opt out of binding arbitration for each credit card. Submit a form to avoid being tracked. This whole mess puts a huge onus on t

I'm confused by this. They took the Switch and removed everything that made it uniquely successful to make the Switch Lite. The naming doesn't even make sense anymore. The point is that you can "switch" between TV mode a
