  Another top post.

  I’ve pre-ordered the switch 2 (never owned the original) but already concerned about the reception its receiving. Seems Nintendo keep making mistakes with this one, similar to the wiiu… The only plus is I’ve already paid in full for it (UK Curry’s brick and mortar store) so hopefully no price increases for me plus got Mario kart world bundle so didn’t need a 2nd mortgage.

  Nah, this journalist can’t say that the jury would reach a different verdict even in light of the challanged evidence - for him to announce they would today find her “clearly not beyond reasonable doubt” is incredibly arrogant. The jury spent 10 months of their lives on this - not a few hours writing this blog and he’s phrasing it like they were stupid.

  The biggest red flag for me and still is the handwritten notes and its funny seeing him try rinse away with word salad. I’ve never ever written nor know anyone - including those who have been to therapy - who has a written the words I AM EVIL and I DID THIS. And I Killed them on purpose. Its not careless admin, its damn creepy and certainly would alone be enough for me to feel zero empathy for her. Yes, one may say a normal killer would surely destroy the evidence, but we’re not talking about a normal killer. This guy wants the families to go through hell all over again to likely (by his own admission) reach the same result. Guilty.

  Appreciate its only been about 9 months or so, but been disappointed with Labour so far…

  Starmer doesn’t appear to be listening to the public mood on benefit reform, taxes or even the growing hostility here towards the US. It seems he’s stuck 2 years in the past and as others have suggested it’s difficult to see him as being the leader of the Labour Party. The most positive move I’ve seen him make was his warm welcome of Zelenskyy after the White House disaster.

  I don’t know if it was true, but I once read that Churchill rode the underground shortly before his famous speach which helped him get the mood of the public. Starmer really needs to doing something similar. He’s looking more out of touch every passing week.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Nintendo Switch 2 Launches on June 5th Worldwide; 1080p Screen With 120 FPS and HDR Support, Docked Mode 4K Resolution Support Confirmed⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  For me, its not the console price thats the problem. £395.99 in the UK but if we consider inflation, the switch 1 would be around £360-365 today. An extra £30ish for a bigger screen and more power is not too unreasonable. Plus ending in 95.99 rather than 99.99 suggests Nintendo have tried to trim the headline price down.

  The real problem is the accessories and games. £75 for new pro controller, £50 for new microSD Express (only ones compatible) £50 for webcam and £67-75 for physical games, £59-£67 for digital.

  Ouch.

  Thanks once again - these series of posts are the best thing on Lemmy at the moment. Wish the Internet had stayed like this rather than what it has become. Your content and the fediverse gives me hope…

  Yes exactly, its the convenience of being able to play on the sofa when I get a spare hour at the weekends or evenings that’s really appealing. Thanks, will check Decky Loader out 👍
