Does the Series S support USB controllers? Could you not use one of those knock off USB PS controllers?

Oh gotcha. You mean before it went Dual Shock 3? Sorry I thought you were referring to the multiple iterations the PS1 had.

Advantage over Dual Shock 2 was that it was wireless, and I do appreciate that, but I completely agree that PlayStation layout is great.

I do like the Dual Shock 4 when on the computer, as the little touchpad on the front helps with SteamOS when dealing with shitty interfaces for 3rd Party Launchers that demand a mouse and keyboard.

If I didn’t encounter them occasionally then Dual Shock 3 all the way as I dont normally need any of the other “features”.

I’m not sure what you are referring to here. The Dual Shock 2 was the standard PS2 controller throughout its lifetime.

Do you mean the OG PlayStation, which had the standard controller, then the dual analogue stick, and finally the Dual Shock with the two analogue sticks plus rumble?

I liked the analogue sticks, loved Katamari. Rumble didn’t add enough.

Works fine for me.

I use it in combination with AR and CRT for good coverage. Might want to check that Flaresolverr is setup correctly.

We have joint and personal accounts.

Joint account for bills, if anything were to happen to me I would like her to be able to pay bills, or even see they exist to cancel them.

Joint account for salary deposit and a joint savings on it for covering our 3 months of bills.

Personal account for discretionary spending, each month we put some pocket money in each of our personal account to blow on beer/taco bell/whatever.

No. OpenReach is a shit show, with shills all claiming that BT doesn’t get preferential treatment whilst everyone I know has at least one anecdote where OpenReach gave preferential treatment to BT. After a while the strench of uncompetitive practice is unavoidable, and they are getting rings rum around them by the alt-nets. OpenReach is a bad example.

Infrastructure that is a natural monopoly needs to be spun out into a separate company, or government entity that’s untouchable from the consumer facing sellers, not just an “untouchable other department”.

Nope Idiocracy is far more optimistic.

Remember, they found our someone was more intelligent so they gave him the job of fixing the country.

Are there starter homes just sitting about, unpurchased because people can’t afford them?

I’m not in the US, so I’m a little detached from this but does the US have an issue with house sales at the moment?

I’ve only heard of buying issues. Why wouldn’t this just increase prices by $25k? That’s precisely what we witnessed in the UK whenever the government offer assistance, there are always buyers so the market swallows up the extra capital and prices increase to offset.

According to Musk?

In Oregon, even tipped workers make the state minimum wage, but what that wage is varies depending on location.

How is a varying amount depending on where you live a “state minimum wage”?

I was really disappointed with the NA beer in California when I visited. Athletic had three types that were stocked in the various grocery stores I visited, but they all tasted exactly the same.

There was an NA Mango that I saw in one but nowhere else. Surprising really when we can get Brooklyn Special Effects over here in the UK. I was expecting at least a match in options.

Good luck with your hunt!

Another thought is the Big Drop Paradiso Citra, which is not quite as good as the other two, is still very nice and I’m not sure about Saintsbury’s, but I can get it in my local Tescos.

I’m not a big fan of the other Big Drops, but the Citra is nice when the sun is out.

Yeah, I wouldn’t normally choose stout. I picked it because it was going to be first drink of the day during a longer hot spell.

Turned out surprising good.

They can be a bit thinner, but considering how much Neck Oil is in your face I don’t think that’s necessarily a bad thing. Its more the lagers that just taste of malt juice that I dislike.

If you want stuff that isnt thin then Laser Crush by Beavertown is pretty good, and Special Effects by Brooklyn is amazing considering its 0.5%. (IMHO).

Both can be picked up at either Tescos or Sainsburys.

And as mentioned, Guinness 0.0 tastes the same. I’ve had that a few times at Twickenham, and its just as good but it could have been the atmosphere.

What surprised me more was that I was recently out in California, and most supermarkets I visited either didn’t have an option or only had one Athletic, which you can get in Tescos but is probably one of the weaker IPA options.

Not American here. Why would you put the punctuation inside the quotes unless you are quoting punctuation? Unless I misunderstood what you mean.

For example:

Bob wrote “this is amazing!”.

Bob used an exclamation point, so I quoted an exclamation. If it is the end of my sentence then I use a full stop, if I quote it then it would imply the end of their sentence even though it wasn’t.

Frazorth is amazing when he speaks, as I never knew someone could be quite so incoherent.

Would be quoted as

Bob said “Frazorth is amazing.”

It distorts the context.

As per the initial comment, those that didn’t vote Tory mostly moved to Reform not to LibDem.

Because LibDem wouldn’t make sense, as a pro-trans, pro-EU, pro-increase tax to pay for public services party they don’t offer anything that Tories want.

That was a wishful thinking comment that some Tories might want to not move far-right, those that find the Tories unpalatable due to their shitty views have already moved.

I would suggest that your more likely to find folks who voted LibDem to move to Green now that they’ve rebranded themselves to something other than crusty hippies. I know my mother moved from voting LibDem to Green.

LibDems? We did vote for AV, and the 51% idiots voted against it.

AV for Commons, PR for the Lords replacement.

Ah, but these numbers come from this past election.

If we had PR then people would be more likely to vote Green because you don’t have to be tactical. Your vote goes to a Green seat, rather than voting for another party to keep Tories out.

significant share who’ll vote Lib Dem or Tory, but not Labour

Citation required for that.

The Liberal Party, which is now the modern LibDems, was founded as opposition to the Tories. Their values are completely different, which is why most LibDem voters were concerned about the coalition.

Labour was founded to represent workers rights, the Greens for the planets rights, and the LibDems for social rights.

The Tories are toxic for all three of those.
