Xbox Elite controllers are expensive, but the ease of replacing worn out thumbsticks (or swapping d-pads) is nice. I wonder if MS has a patent on the design, because the only example of a different controller using the same parts I can find is someone who mods things like ROG Ally to use them.

My latest attempt at a healthier brownie was the best result yet, but also the one I'm least likely to reveal the big ingredient to before people actually try it. Beans as the main replacement for butter just sounds weird.

In paying more attention to calories and other nutrition info, something to keep in mind is there are many levels of good and bad. Like, a frozen lasagna isn't exactly a health food. But compare a frozen pizza to the same amount of volume from that lasagna and the lasagna SEEMS like a health food.
408 grams of Jack's Pepperoni Pizza gets you 1020 calories, 45g fat, 105mg cholesterol.408 grams of Great Value Italian-Style Three Meat Lasagna gets you 517 calories, 23g fat, 77mg cholesterol.

In case you don't know, there was a comic miniseries crossover of TNG and Eleventh Doctor years back.

Mixed grape drink packet with box of vanilla pudding. Wanted to try orange/Tang-type, but didn't have any. Result tasted decent, but looked kind of ugly with the purple blunted by all the whiteness.

Used a larger potato to get larger diameter slices, but that just gave them more room to fall over on each other and become hard to remove. If these things were actually popular, maybe someone would make a version with the separators another centimeter or two taller.

I know the price of ground beef has shot up over the last few years, but I just noticed the specific comparison that it's now cheaper to get the fake meat than it is to get most ground beef. Looks like ground beef still wins if you go for the higher fat content, though.

Saw that Andy Serkis has an audiobook of Animal Farm. As tie-in products between source material and very loose adaptations go, it reminds me of when copies of Dante's Inferno were sold with covers based on the X360-era game.

FWIW, if you were to play 8-player Mario Kart 8 on the Nintendo Switch 2 screen in portable mode, each player would have about 15% less screen area than a player of Mario Kart Super Circuit on GBA. Nearly 7 times the resolution, though.

A few years ago I was unpopular for trying to make the case that Tears of the Kingdom at $70 was not very historically expensive. Now I am unpopular for saying the same about $80 Grand Theft Auto VI.

I just saw the Star Trek: Strange New Worlds novel covers side by side, and it bugged me that they clearly used the same image of Pike for two of them. Then I looked closer and though the heads match, the shirt lines don't. I wonder what led the graphic designer to this level of tweaking.

I saw this line and wondered what the equivalent was in the original language. Turns out localizers picked a pretty appropriate inappropriate alternative.

You do know what 'one-eyed monster' usually means-".Google result text: "The Localization Nuance: In the original Japanese script, Nia uses the term inchu ("turtlehead"), which is similarly slang for an exposed or erect part of the anatomy, showing that the localization team deliberately preserved the mature joke.
