- Comment on Nintendo Switch 2 finally officially revealed 5 days ago:
Nintendo consoles tended to be radical, Nintendo handhelds were more iterative.
The Game Boy and DS lines all built gradually on each other, seems the Switch line is following suit. I assume Nintendo see the Switch as a handheld that can be docked, rather than a console that’s also portable, so I guess it makes sense that it’s following a similar trajectory of previous handheld lines.
- Comment on Nintendo Switch 2 finally officially revealed 5 days ago:
Everything has to look so serious these days.
The colourful Joy Cons were part of the Switch’s identity, sad to see it reduced to an accent they seem almost ashamed of.
- Comment on Bloodletting recommended for Jersey residents after PFAS contamination 5 days ago:
I was told the future would be all flying cars and food in pills.
But instead it’s industrial pollution and bloodletting.

- Comment on Britain will rejoin the EU within 15 years, former Brussels chief predicts 2 months ago:
I expect (at least) one party will eventually adopt Rejoin as a distinguishing policy, and maybe sooner rather later.
But the appetite for Rejoin will probably depend on the shape of the UK economy and the political direction of the EU in 10+ years. If the Starmer project really has been delivering tangible growth by then, people may feel Brexit has (inadvertently) “worked” in the end. If the EU achieves greater and greater integration in the UK’s absence it may seem less palatable to enough voters.
Both of those are also going to be influenced by external factors like the direction of a possible Trump second term, the outcome of the war in Ukraine etc.

- Comment on Online retailer eBay scraps fees for private sellers in UK 3 months ago:
So I’ve heard they have already switched eBay in Germany to this no-fee system. It proved more profitable for eBay because private sellers who accrue an eBay balance from sales were in turn more likely to spend it on eBay.

- Comment on A Next Generation Approach to Heating and Cooling Buildings 3 months ago:
Presumably this adds more cost and complexity to buying and installing appliances though if they have to integrate into these systems, which I’m guessing aren’t currently well standardised.
It’s an interesting idea nonetheless. I’ve heard of other projects using excess heat from large data centres to provide energy for district heating systems.
- Comment on Dozens from UK take up Putin’s offer to ditch ‘woke’ West and move to Russia 3 months ago:
The current population of the UK is somewhere around 68 million.
Thats enough people that you could probably find “dozens” who would say yes to just about anything.

- Comment on Fears for patient safety as GPs use ChatGPT to diagnose and treat illness 3 months ago:
I think the difference here is that medical reference material is based on long process of proven research. It can be trusted as a reliable source of information.
AI tools however are so new they haven’t faced anything like the same level of scrutiny. For now they can’t be considered reliable, and their use should be kept within proper medical trials until we understand them better.
Yes human error will also always be an issue, but putting that on top of the currently shaky foundations of AI only compounds the problem.
