Right, but what can they do, short of banning small bottles of water?

I love my Steam Deck. It's literally beside my hotel bed right now, while the Switch is at home with two kids under 10. But:

• the docking and detaching experience is frustrating as hell
• it is significantly heavier and yet feels more fragile.
• it has profiles but not comparably to the Switch in terms of use and UX
• and the controller experience is very hit and miss.
• • It spent 2 months just literally randomly shutting off bluetooth - you had to go into desktop mode and re-enable with a Linux command until they patched it - but that's not even it - whenever it did that, it also disabled the sticks!.
• • I have multiple entries in the controllers screen - none of which can be renamed or show indicators as to which controller they are - where every now and again the Deck decides sorry, I don't recognise that controller anymore. Please come walk across the living room and awkwardly stand in front of the telly pressing buttons on the Steam Deck's face to re-pair things.
• • Oh and controller layout schemes are a cool and powerful feature but way too complicated for me to explain to an 8 year old.

If "I just want to pick up a controller after work and forget what Philip in Marketing said he thought the project was going to look like", or "I want to buy games once and share them with my kids" or even "I'll throw this in my bag to kill 20 minutes at the waiting room" are factors, the Steam Deck is very much not superior in every way.

Again. Love my Deck. Almost exclusively buy "Verified" games now. Halfway through a Nintendo game that somehow is easier for me, a software dev to find ajd emulate on Deck than on a Nintendo console. But the Switch has been a remarkable console to have in my living room. The first console I bought (actually now that I think of it, that my wife bought for me) since Wii and before that since PlayStation 2. I'm not really a console player. I have 1000+ games on Steam. Still Switch excels at many things and the sales figures should make that obvious.

No that's OK, pictures speak louder than words. Doesn't matter that it's RFA, images like the feature photo of the article deserve to be seen around the world. The utter devastation of... well... maybe a strong wind?

I think I like reading first and then anything else. If the film is different or worse, it doesn't actually detract from the book. I try to look at it as someone having a try at a tribute rather than replacing the book. Hitchhikers Guide was different, and many complained, but "hey it's different" is a silly complaint when Hitchhikers Guide was different in literally every medium but film and book are always going to be the most seen. Foundation is different but nonetheless enjoyable. The emperor Cleon is never like that in the books but instead in the show, personifies the entire empire, ruthless, vain, powerful but performative, human and not. How else to portray a 10,000 year empire in a few dozen episodes of TV? I saw the Lord of the Rings films before the book but Christ I could not read those books without some higher level, more tangible image of what I am reading.

I care about news in a news community. Not 3 year old stories from America's Asian propaganda outlet.

Trying to pollute the search results for "bomb schools", Gedaliyah, govenor of Yehud, son of Akiham, son of Shaphan?

1. Why would anyone have to sign up to Truth Social to see what he's posted? Wouldn't a single bot reposting it elsewhere do the job?

2. I'm pretty sure Musk is on board to hand him back the POTUS Twitter handle and say any censorship or moderation would be unconstitutional and unpatriotic. Regardless of the result, probably. He will not care if Truth Social tanks if he's got that.

Large margin for Harris: "this is absurd, we should have won, look how much they cheated"

Small margin for Harris: "They cheated, we need to send electoral votes for Trump anyway. Stop the steal!"

Small margin victory for Trump: "we won even though they cheated! Big changes coming to prevent their cheating in future"

Huge victory for Trump: "we have a mandate to eradicate the wetbacks"

I don't think the meme should be exclusively about building/fixing PCs though. Half the young people starting in our business show the same ineptitude as my parents when tasks with clicking stuff.

Be careful, I heard that having strong opinions on seed oils lowers your testosterone
