We'll see if you'll sing the same song about physical copies being "odd" when you get locked out of your digital copy by whatever stupid reason the distributors come up with when they don't feel like letting you play it anymore.
Physical for life! :win:

I always download my digital copy on the spot and on the computer to prevent them from locking me out of apple.

I believe in another possibility: a girl with two eggs and a sausage.

Some people just can't download either because of poor internet access or restrictive data caps.

There are those (not me) who live in areas where the fastest internet they can get (besides satellite) is a 4G cell phone connection. There actually are people who still use dial-up and not by choice. About a quarter million according to this article.

How Many Americans Are Still Using Dial-Up Internet?​

Our brief history of dial-up sounds so old-fashioned it might feel like we're talking about 8-track players or the advent of color television. But a surprising number of Americans still use dial-up internet out of necessity because of incomplete broadband market penetration. The U.S. is a big place with a lot of spread-out rural locations, and the wait time for that "final mile" of broadband network rollout has been in the someday-never category for many people.

In 2000, dial-up internet adoption was around 34%, rising to 41% in 2001 as people's interest in home internet access outpaced broadband rollout, according to Pew Research. The rise of broadband more than halved those numbers by 2007, with dial-up internet only accounting for 15% of home internet use. By 2013, dial-up internet accounted for only around 3% of internet users.

As time goes on, it's harder to account for the remaining dial-up users because they aren't counted as part of official broadband surveys, but we do have some data to go off of. By 2019, Census estimates put dial-up internet use at around 0.2% of households, meaning as of 2019, at least 265,000 people in the U.S. were still using dial-up for home internet access. This cratering of dial-up subscribers found in the Census data is also reflected in survey data from National Telecommunications and Information Administration. Dial-up internet usage has been below 1% since sometime in 2015.

These dial-up subscribers use one of the few remaining national dial-up providers, such as NetZero, Juno, or one of the smaller regional providers that still offers dial-up. If those names sound familiar, it's because NetZero and Juno are still going strong in the dial-up internet space after nearly thirty years.

Cousins are LEGAL in Japan. I dunno why because it's law?
First cousins can marry in 19 US states without restriction and in 7 others with restrictions (such as old or infertile/sterile).

Cousin marriage law in the United States

Before everyone comes in with Deep South jokes, it's really hit and miss. Some southern states allow (the Alabama joke does hold true here) but others don't, and it looks like most of New England allows.
