I watched one episode of Wednesday and can only assume that whoever wrote it had never seen The Addams Family before. Genuinely awful. Felt like some Harry Potter knockoff they'd inexplicably turned into something the rights were cheap for...

What do you even ask for at the barbers to end up with that?

Skin fade to pot noodle, please mister?

Or just make it into a park. We're not so desperate for space we need to build on what little urban greenery we have left...

Certainly more than golf.

A "price update".

I got a price update coming for them. It's fucking zero.

I'd say I'd still the seven seas for it, but I can't think of any of their stuff I'd actually bother to nick...

Jellyfin seems solid.

The only issues I've had are with dodgy media files. Obviously better player hardware gets you better performance, but transcoding eliminates some of those issues.

Who cares what teens want?

They don't have any money.

Look, I'm down with his attitude to CEOs, but I just can't get on board with the "everyone must see my ankles" club. I'm out.

But Nvidia have clearly sold them the chips and told than that some of those cores aren't working. And they said OK and hoped nobody would really notice.

We had a vote on that in the UK too.

Again, shot down. Both sides put aside their differences and put full effort into killing that. Apparently it was too expensive ("we need incubators, not a fair voting system!") and too complicated.

We will never have real democracy. They'll never let us have it and anybody powerful enough to overthrow them won't allow it either. It's just wrong lizards until one of them does away with the farce.

God, I hope not.

 
 
 

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.
