  • Why?

    Why is Iran's nuclear programme such a grave threat? A grave threat, as opposed to... What exactly?

    What makes China, Pakistan, Russia, India, or North Korea less of a threat?

  • Oh... So... Slavery, then? But, you know, without calling slavery outright.

  • Comical is... A word. I'm not even a smoker, but I feel like a cigarette and some liqueur.

    I'm so fucking tired...

  • Thank you! This will certainly be a strong contender. They also have very cheap shipping to Denmark, so that's a plus.

  • I dunno what to say...

  • Shipping in 2026... oof. ^^;

    I'm not sure about the mini controller. Looks like it might get very irritating to use after a short time.

  • Yeah, I know that replacing the sticks on a PS controller is a soldering job, but I don't have a soldering kit.

    It was actually my first idea; get a soldering kit, get some hall effect sticks, repair my DS4 controller. But I don't actually have a place to put a soldering kit, I have no skill with soldering, and I can't justify buying a soldering kit just for this one project.

  • I've also traveled across Europe with it a few times. I bought my DS4 for use with my laptop (years before I built my own PC) shortly after the PS4 came out. I've had that controller for a very long time.

    I considered perhaps replacing the sticks with hall effect ones myself, but I don't have a soldering kit, and I can't justify buying a whole soldering kit when I don't have place for one and intend to only use it once.

  • Oof, the Tarantula Pro is rather expensive. Though it's nice to see they have a Danish shop. I also see they have a much cheaper wired version. Looks pretty cool, but the cable doesn't look easily replaced, which is a concern.

  • Pretty decent looking gamepad. Do you have experience with the 8bitdo Pro 2? How are the ergonomics? How does it feel?

  • I want the PS layout. I don't care how the system recognizes it so long as it just works.

  • I'm hijacking this thread to ask a question:

    Bazzite latest MESA how?

    I can see that the driver released on the 18th is available on Fedora Rawhide, but it may contain the fix I need that removes graphical artefacting in Unreal Engine 5 games like Oblivion Remastered, Avowed, and Dune Awakening (checking the MESA developer forums shows that they've identified the problem. Checking their git shows they've found a fix to the problem, hence why I'm expecting the fix to be in the version release of the 18th).

  • Are the protests, demonstrations, and riots still going on?

    After the Marines were called in, and the demonstrations surrounding No Kings, I haven't heard much from LA anymore.

  • Really now. Let's compare that to France, shall we?

    And while we're at it, let's compare living conditions and quality of life, and market profitability as well.

  • I dunno, man. I've heard it being referred to as "aqua-cola". I've also heard it's incredibly addictive, which makes sense because not a lot of time has to pass at all before I start to crave more of it. It's practically impossible to resist.

    Should've never been started on that shit. I dunno why it's so normalised in society...

  • What space race?

    NASA us working on a shoestring budget and managed to run some very successful missions. The Artemis Program is/was very succesful, and what does NASA get?

    Budget cuts. Money diverted to SpaceX who, under Elon, has yet to do a single succesful mission (the Dragon capsule and reusable rockets were both projects that Elon bought. Starship is the first project that Elon directed).

  • Good gods! Captain, The ambient sarcasm readings are off the charts!

  • Your name isn't Grok, now is it? :V
