Whoa....and in a twist that no one expected, Brazil comes out of left field to take up the mantle of "Stop Killing Games"!

full compatibility details will be revealed soon

This is what I'm interested in finding out. Because Steam can pick up any generic-shit-for-brains controller and use it normally. What does "Steam compatibility" give us?

I identify as electrical (pronouns: zip/zap).

He's still congratulating himself to this day.

Are Nintendo's shit practice's going to make any difference to people falling over themselves to buy their stuff?

Best selling console of all time, you say?

Any idea of this guy made any significant impact when he installed Linux recently?

UK here. This is all "free" (i.e. paid for by a significant portion of every paycheck I ever earn via tax).

I phone my GP. They say you have I call at 0830 to get an appointment. Call back tomorrow. I ask for an advance appointment and they say they have nothing for 6+ weeks. So I call back the next day and the line is constantly busy. I get through at 0837 after mashing redial constantly. I'm told the appointments are all gone and I should call back tomorrow again. They suggest "if it's urgent then go to the A&E department"....which is clearly inappropriate for my problem. So I call back the next day. The next day I happen to get through at 0833 and they take my details. I'm told the doctor will call me back at some point later that day. Spend the day watching the phone, but can't answer it because I'm work. Duck out of something really important at work to take the call, I'm told to come to the GP later in the day. Later in the day I have work stuff I can't just leave immediately, so I ask for an appointment the next day. Get told to phone back at 0830 the next day to make an appointment.

I've figured out a way to short circuit the system. There's a national urgent medical line (111) and I have to answer the operator's questions for 20 min (am I bleeding profusely? Am I unable to breathe? Am I going to die imminently?). Finally, they're able to allocate an appointment for my own GP at a sensible time the next day.....apparently thesr guys have access to appointments with my GP which the fucking GP won't give me. Great! I go to the GP to be seen by a FY2 doctor (i.e. 15 months posts undergraduate qualification), this guy admits that he doesn't know what he's doing, that he'll speak to the GP later and phone me back with the outcome later that day. He phones me back later that day saying they don't know what to do so they're going to refer me to a hospital specialist, the hospital appointment should be sent to me in 10 months or so.

The few times I have had to go to the A&E department with my kid, I've taken chargers, entertainment devices, extra coat for my kid to use as a blanket, food (2 full packed meals), water, video game console.......I'm expecting to be there for about 6 hours if things move really quickly.

The state of national healthcare in this country. Thank you Conservatives, for 13 years of record low investment.

Imagine farting in your sleep and being ripped apart because of this.

The most important office skill was taught by George Costanza: look angry and people will think you're busy working hard.

I'm talking about sailing the high seas. I guess that didn't come across.

Everyone with an internet connection can "afford to see a movie". Or are you asking to be able to afford to pay for a movie ticket at an overpriced cinema?

I don't use KISS as a launcher, but I have it bound to double tapping the home button. You can add any search options you want (maps app, play store, internet search, phone search). This is an excellent customisable alternative to the built in google search app and I would highly recommend it for that.

I'm commenting because a single upvote doesnt adequately convey how much I agree with this comment.

Iconic. That flip open/snap shut feeling. Insanely thin at the time.

Same. I tried 3 times to get into Witcher 3. No success.

Doesn't matter, there's tons of other fun stuff out there.

It won't let me copy/paste the list out of this boost app. As you come across content, keep adding words that are specific to USA (e.g. Trump, POTUS, senator, constitution, NBA, superbowl), don't add words that are likely to catch other content from other parts of the world (e.g. president, democrat). Communities should be self-evident that are focussed on American content.

I refuse to use any social media app or news app that doesnt have a blocklist. I'd recommend Boost for a Lemmy app and Pluma for an RSS news app.

I probably see more American content than I am putting across, but with training my brain to skip/ignore American content, I'm not too bothered by what I see now.

I would also recommend blocking other things you might fond repetitive or annoying (I don't want endless content about Israel, Ukraine, police brutality, Apple products, etc) and I block all of this stuff too. Lemmy has enough content now to still show plenty of posts with all that blocked. You just need to be sure to browse "all".

Please.....kill me.

It's the first thing. Glad to see it working. I do still have to ignore a lot of USA-centric political memes and it annoys me that political content doesn't stay in the designated political areas.

I welcome suggestions for active communities that are non-political.

Must be my filter list then..... 200 blocked communities (mostly porn though) and 50 blocked keywords.....and increasing.

A post this size with this many pictures is slowing down my Lemmy app (Boost) to a crawl. I can't even scroll down the page. Anyone else having problems?
