- Comment on ‘I have nothing in the UK at all’: British man torn from his Swedish wife and home 1 week ago:
“Since arriving in Sweden nearly nine years ago, I’ve done everything I can to integrate myself into Swedish society. I’ve learned some basic Swedish, contributed to Swedish society and the Swedish economy…
I’m heartened to see that this doesn’t seem to be a leopards-eating-faces story, for once, but he’s still giving “typical Brit abroad” 😬
- Comment on The Anbernic RG DS Plus Is The Best DS Handheld Yet 2 weeks ago:
And ones that rely on a resistive touchscreen, like the bit in Hotel Dusk where you have to flick both breaker switches at the same time.
I doubt a “slushy” stylus would be a great experience for quickly answering math problems in Brain Age, or… doing basically anything in either of the two Zelda games. 😅
I know a lot of people with dual-screen handhelds use styluses (styli?) with a disc tip:
Which I guess would at least help with the friction. 🤔 I wonder if someone will make one that can fit into the slot on the Anbernic.

Same people “protecting our women”

Quick!! Do another by-election!!!
- Comment on Upcoming Changes to XBOX Cloud Gaming [time limits] 3 weeks ago:
Especially when the “Ultimate” tier doesn’t even give you long enough to finish most games. 😬
- Comment on Frustrated GP patients hang up as Yorkshire accent baffles AI receptionist 5 weeks ago:
The main thing that annoys me about mine is you get “You are currently number… one… in the call queue”, and THEN you get “You are at the head of the queue.”
Feels misleading. 😅
- Comment on Frustrated GP patients hang up as Yorkshire accent baffles AI receptionist 5 weeks ago:
This is maddening. I’d genuinely rather sit in the 40-minute queue to be treated badly by the real-life receptionist. 😤
I know not everyone has the time, but at least give options.

To be fair it was a preferential voting system that made Burnham PM. 🙃
- Comment on Dobby's Grave Not At Risk From The Greenlink Interconnector Project, Also Not Real 1 month ago:
Call it a Wizarding World® Cupboard Under the Stairs™ Immersive Experience and they’ll flock to it
- Comment on Dobby's Grave Not At Risk From The Greenlink Interconnector Project, Also Not Real 1 month ago:
Harry Potter… I worry about Harry Potter fans because they should be over that by now – It was 25 years ago and it’s for children – I think it’s for children but they get stuck in it.

- Comment on London enters the race to host WorldPride 2032 1 month ago:
I mean I doubt the people organising this bid had anything to do with that decision. 😃 And Pride is a protest as much as it’s a celebration, surely it’d be a good way to draw more attention to the issue

Honestly at this point just be grateful they didn’t try to blame it on Palestine or trans people 💀

This really warmed my heart 🥲
- Comment on What’s your favorite video game that most people didn’t like ?? 3 months ago:
Oh, I’ll piggyback on this one and say: Spirit Tracks and Phantom Hourglass.
I feel like I’m the only person who didn’t struggle with the touch controls at all, and I love both games dearly.
Maybe Switch 2 would be the perfect time to remake them, so you can use mouse controls to write on the map and stuff. 🤔
- Comment on Four in 10 struggle to access mobile signal on the move in the UK 3 months ago:
Norfolk is still terrible. My town has decent signal nowadays, but is one of many with no 5G whatsoever. And between towns, you often get nothing.
- Comment on 60% of PC gamers have no plans to build a new PC in the next two years — AI pricing crunch on RAM and other components paralyze enthusiast market 4 months ago:
Yeah, the $80 dollar AAA games are presumably going to price enough people out that there’s no need to upgrade anyway. 😬
Thank goodness indies are usually more interesting anyway.
- Comment on Rhythm Heaven Groove launches July 2 5 months ago:
£33.99 on the eShop! That actually feels… about right, to me? Which almost never happens with Nintendo stuff any more. 😬

Well, yeah. I expect McDonald’s sent them a snotty email and they caved. Again.
