TPCi really needs to figure out a better system for Pokémon Center slots for EUIC, NAIC and Worlds Every time it's an absolute mess and people can't book, waste their time and it's just poor. Why they continue to use this system, I have no idea

Wolfe est aussi un cas particulier parce qu'à ma connaissance personne n'est autant une célébrité, un personnage principal que lui à l'échelle de sa scène respective. Mais si quelqu'un comme lui peut se plaindre d'avoir été sexuellement agressé, alors le nombre réel de victimes doit rester alarmant.

I wish there was a way to filter out all of the US politics from my Bluesky feed. I feel for all my American friends, but that shit drowns out the rest of the world to a point where I just cannot cope with anymore.

If Russia India and the United States were building solar at the same rate as China the renewable energy transition would be over in no time. Unfortunately three of these countries are easily controlled by the interests of fossil fuel capitalists

Haha! Love this letter from Douglas Adams to his US editor about not Americanising the text of Hitchhiker's Guide. 🐋🌸

Date: Monday, January 13, 1992, 5:26 pm
To: Byron Preiss
Dear Byron,
Thanks for the script of the novel. I don't know what happened to the
first one. It may have been a victim of the office move (see above).
I'll respond as quickly and briefly as possible.
One general point. A thing I have had said to me over and over again
whenever I've done public appearances and readings and so on in the
States is this: Please don't let anyone Americanise it! We like it the
way it is!
There are some changes in the script that simply don't make sense.
Arthur Dent is English, the setting is England, and has been in every
single manifestation of HHGG ever. The 'Horse and Groom' pub that
Arthur and Ford go to is an English pub, the 'pounds' they pay with

are English (but make it twenty pounds rather than five- inflation) So
why suddenly 'Newark' instead of 'Rickmansworth'? And
'Bloomingdales' instead of 'Marks & Spencer'? The fact that
Rickmansworth is not within the continental United States doesn't
mean that it doesn't exist! American audiences do not need to feel
disturbed by the notion that places do exist outside the US or that
people might suddenly refer to them in works of fiction. You
wouldn't, presumably, replace Ursa Minor Beta with 'Des Moines'.
There is no Bloomingdales in England, and Bloomingdales is not a
generic term for large department stores. If you feel that referring to
"Marks & Spencer' might seriously freak out Americans because they
haven't heard of it (or because Marks and Spencer owns Brooks
Brothers) we could either put warning stickers on the cover ("The text
of this book contains references to places and institutions outside the
continental United States and may cause offence to people who haven't
heard of them") or you could, I suppose, put 'Harrods', which most
people will have heard of. Or we could even take the appalling risk of
just recklessly mentioning things that people won't have heard of and
see if they survive the experience. They probably will - when people
are born they haven't heard of anything or anywhere, but seem to get
through the first few years of their lives without ill-effects.

Steam Deck is not a mass market device. It's a very niche device with limited appeal to a certain subset of gamers. That's not a knock, that's just the way it is. Switch 2 will probably outsell Steam Deck's entire lifetime sales in less than 6 months.

AFRICOM commander Gen. Langley tells senators that China is "trying to replicate" USAID programs in Africa as the US scales back USAID.

"They're trying to use that as an extension of the Belt and Road Initiative to gain favor by the African countries," Langley said.

Includes USB charging cable.

Attach the Joy-Con 2 controllers to the Joy-Con 2 charging grip to use as a classic-style controller, or as a handy way to charge your controllers using the included USB charging cable.

Some of the #Switch2 edition upgrades will be included with NSO + Expansion Pack! The BOTW and TOTK are the two launch ones that are included, so it seems the other two (Kirby & Super Mario Party Jamboree) aren't.

Selected upgrade packs included with Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack membership.

If you have an active Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack membership, you can download and enjoy the content of the following upgrade packs at no additional cost. You must own the original titles, as either physical or digital versions.
