Only if they, too, were willing to foot the bill for the arbitration fees. Hint: nobody else does that, they want the consumer to pay their own way to reduce filings. That’s what happened with Twitter’s severance filings, they got hit with millions in arbitration fees.
Yeah, that’s probably a better phrasing.
People weren’t using them ambiguously, drive manufactures picked a non-standard unit to lie with on their boxes, and then tricked courts into going along with their shit because it was the old case of money vs truth.
Speaking of Rare games, I was on track to 100% DK64 until my save corrupted on the final fairy. Never tried again, damn those bananas.

Oh my god don’t get me started, the last time I tried that, it took me over two fucking hours to get the Microsoft account to recognize that I owned Minecraft. Apparently I bought the game so long ago that it failed to unify my accounts correctly so the separate “enter your password” screen just failed to load?
