  • Wait, what? For real?

    fiddles with some buttons

  • there's no one to blame that doesn't have an R by their name.

    Are you kidding? They'll be scapegoating Biden's corpse so long and so hard even the DNC will blush. And then there's always Obama as a backup plan.

    Life is cake when absolutely nothing is your fault.

  • Sega does what Nintendon't.

    It warms my old man heart to see the console flame wars still going strong. Tribalism, what a thing, lemme tell ya. Human nature at its naturist.

    MOVEMENT CONTROLS PEAKED WITH WASD!

  • Adulthood doubles the frames: add one with no bench, and one with someone putting a bench in front of the child. The conclusion doesn't change: it's the kid's fault for tripping over the bench. We just collectively ignore that the kid was fine until someone put a bench in the way.

  • Plot twist: the toddler has a multi-year marketing push worth tens if not hundreds of millions, which convinced a lot of people who don't know the first thing about chess that it really is very impressive, and all those chess-types are just jealous.

  • The narrative, as I understand it, is that the dictatorship they fled is the left, so left bad, right good. Doesn't matter that the political "left" in the US is center-right.

    It's brain-dead tribalism all the way down.

  • Huh, I didn't know people anyone even painted with baby oil.

  • Wait, I thought their job was to revoke approval for safe drugs that the snowflakes don't like?

  • Resource hidden where we can't see it? Best to assume it's infinite and there will be no repercussions.

  • Last night was bad (far east side of toronto... like Durham Region). It was over 180 and not only could I smell the smoke from inside the house, but my eyes were burning, too.

    Having flashbacks to the fires from a couple of years ago. We were nowhere near (these were the Quebec fires IIRC) but outdoor AQI was bad for weeks, regularly topping 300 and peaking at 4-500. Had everything closed up, AC and multiple HEPA purifiers running, and it was still awful indoors.

  • I think there's something to the sitting idle angle. My launch joycons started getting drift 4-5 years ago. I did the usual clean out, then cut some plastic to put more pressure on the stick back plate and they were surprisingly fine. Two years ago I picked up an OLED, and my primary switch got very little handheld use after that.

    Fast forward to a few weeks ago, when I grabbed my launch switch to upgrade the firmware and run some tests. The sticks were basically unusable. I have a couple sets of Hall effect sticks laying around, I guess now is as good a time as any to put them to use.

  • I grew up constantly surrounded by the latter and knew when I smelled the former that the adults were about to act like idiots. I think I'd rather lose my sense of smell than have to endure either consistently.

  • The problem is that there are people behind the scenes goose-stepping on regardless.

  • The good news is that the mic is a piece of cake (relatively speaking, as someone who has tinkered with electronics before) to disconnect. Will it throw any errors/refuse to boot? Dunno, haven't seen that attempted yet.

  • This is the sort of thing that could be actionable, in criminal or civil court.
