@shnorbles@chitter.xyz what's sidetone?
-F

@shnorbles@chitter.xyz tostitos are tortilla chips

which also feature at many ten-year-olds' birthday parties, but are not pizza.
-F

@shnorbles@chitter.xyz not tostitos, totino's
-F

@shnorbles@chitter.xyz but yeah most children's birthday parties are accompanied by one or more little caesar's pizzas, or cheap frozen pizzas (tostito's, tombstone, maybe red baron if it's on sale)
-F

@shnorbles@chitter.xyz also you don't have to use your oven
-F

@shnorbles@chitter.xyz the pizza's... okay. it's pizza. it's not gonna win any awards, but if you're a mom who has to organize a birthday party for a ten-year-old, being able to just spend $20 and have three entire large pizzas and a couple two-liters of soda is probably a godsend
-F

@shnorbles@chitter.xyz yeah you can go there and just pick up an entire large pizza for $5

they don't do delivery (which is part of how they keep prices down), so any delivery is going to be through grubhub or doordash or whatever, which always makes things lots more expensive
-F

@shnorbles@chitter.xyz oh, it's $7 for anything here but you have to get at least two things
-F

@shnorbles@chitter.xyz yeah, though you get more food per dollar from little caesar's

which is actually because they explicitly go out of their way to price their food so that people who can't afford anything else can at least have a filling meal for their kids, which is pretty nice when you think about it
-F

@shnorbles@chitter.xyz it relaly feels kind of manipulative how pizza delivery places don't tell you the price of anything until you've added it to the cart
-F

@shnorbles@chitter.xyz actually this reminded me that we have a free pizza from domino's that expires soon. might as well use that
-F

@shnorbles@chitter.xyz yeah it's kind of. very over the top

also now i want pizza
-F

@niss i don't know what conlang you're referring to and our brain just went to INTERCAL

@shnorbles@chitter.xyz it's really easy to replace the shell on a steam deck though, because it was designed to be repairable. there are third-party shells available in loads of colors, including transparent
-F

@pup_hime i think each person can choose either to have it charge on a specific day each month, or on the same day of the month that the person first signed up on. the first is popular but i imagine some people might choose other days just so people who support a lot of people on patreon don't have all the charges go through at once
-F

@shnorbles@chitter.xyz they can still be expensive trash
-F

@heatherhorns_lite i think it's just the best translation they had for something that's more like "martial arts"
