If they gave a fuck about sustainability they wouldn't be hosting the Olympics in Paris in the middle of summer.

I even played Doom and Doom 2 on mine, at some horrendously low resolution.

Ah, the days of needing a 3D GPU and a 2D GPU...

You'd think so, but who do you think pays huge sums of money every year to be allowed to sell death traps to the public?

He was lucky enough to have it in the middle of Covid, so all the parking was free. Probably not the best idea to have everybody pawing at the same parking meter in the middle of a pandemic at a hospital. Hard enough to get people wearing masks, let alone washing their hands as well.

Watch them arrest him the second he lands.

Some automatic conversion is fine.

a=3+0.2

print("Hello {name}. You are {age} years old")

That kind of thing. But the principle of least surprise definitely applies. If you get to the point where you're adding two booleans and a string, I feel like the language should at least say something. At least until the technology exists for it to physically reach out of your screen and slap you.

And I'm pretty sure that the people pushing for that don't follow all ten. Like "thou shalt not covet". Have you seen American society? Damn thing is built on coveting.

I doubt some of them have even read all ten.

My dad had a cardiac arrest a few years ago. Resuscitation, ambulance, two hospitals, a week in a coma, another week recovering.

I think the biggest expense was putting their cat in the cattery for a week.

You could make a Trumpist poster saying "Joe Biden will force EVERY American home to install GENDER NEUTRAL BATHROOMS! Only Trump can stop him!" and it'll be round the world of hateful Facebook grandparents in about 20 minutes.

But of course. If artists want to fight for their rights, they better get their own lawyers.

Because it turns out SW/Lloyds replaced their computer system last July, and since then none of my pension payments have been going into my account.

Our accountant has had to chase them up since somebody noticed at the start of the year. And only now have they admitted it, and making noises about fixing it.

 

Is anyone else getting problems with charging from an external USB charger after the latest DualSense update?

We updated both controllers, and now neither will charge from an Anker USB charger we've been using. They both charge from the PS5 itself. The charger works fine for phones.

It's like they've updated them to no longer charge from any source other than the PS5, and maybe official PS5 charging docks. Don't have one of those to test.

Annoying to say the least, as it means playing while charging now needs a cable trailing across the living room floor.
