America's Next Health Secretary Enjoying A Meal With His Future Boss and Colleagues
  • In fairness to him, he looks genuinely uncomfortable just holding it for this paid publicity shot. Not enough raw bear meat in it for him.

    Boycott McDonalds, sponsors of Fascism 2025.

  • Solar modules now selling for less than €0.06/W in Europe
  • All the new houses around here with no solar would indicate that is not true. They're not even required to have a south facing roof.

  • When you knocked yourself out
  • Genuinely not sure who it was even for.

    If you don't like boxing, you weren't going to enjoy it.

  • Migrants hope Trump mass deportations only 'for criminals'
  • Or indeed if you're an immigrant.

  • Is a Quest 3 really worth it?
  • If you have a solid gaming PC, yes. There is no immersion quite like VR. No amount of monitors will get you there.

    It's a bit of a faff each time you want to get it going (having to start the link each time), at least compared to a dedicated headset like the original Rift. The Quest 3 is a bit pricy, the 3S and 2 not so much. There's a few decent exclusives for the 3 that aren't even available on PC, so of the two I'd get the 3S.

    Low framerate will make you dizzy. The resolution not so much. You will need a decent GPU.

    Most VR games are fairly small and low budget affairs. The big exception is Half Life Alyx which is amazing. The game I come back to the most is VRChat, just for the massive number of worlds that people have made. It will help you get your VR legs over time.

  • Masked group marches through Ohio neighborhood with swastika flags
  • Police are investigating, and no arrests have been reported.

  • TIL in 1933 the Wall Street Journal had a headline which read "Berlin Views Hitler Calmly: Rise in stocks reflects confidence he will not disrupt nation's affairs"
  • Julius Caesar elected Praetor. Trade up in the imperial forums. Gauls are poisoning the blood of Rome.

  • Three-quarters of U.S. adults are now overweight or obese
  • I see once again we're going for the "just give me some magic pills" approach rather than actually changing the things that are making us fat. People want the wonders of medicine to save them from themselves.

    Good for the shareholders I guess.

  • Muslims who voted for Trump upset by his pro-Israel cabinet picks
  • Trump Calls For 'Total And Complete Shutdown Of Muslims Entering' U.S.

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Executive_Order_13769

    Executive Order 13769, titled Protecting the Nation from Foreign Terrorist Entry into the United States, labeled the "Muslim ban" by Donald Trump and his supporters and critics alike, and commonly known as such, or commonly referred to as the Muslim travel ban, Trump travel ban, the Trump Muslim travel ban, or the Trump Muslim Immigration Ban, was an executive order by President Trump. Except for the extent to which it was blocked by various courts, it was in effect from January 27, 2017, until March 6, 2017, when it was superseded by Executive Order 13780, a second order sharing the title "Protecting the Nation from Foreign Terrorist Entry into the United States".

    None of that was doing it for you guys, huh?

  • Crazy

  • Sorry
  • I legit thought that was a picture of Olivia Colman as I scrolled past.

  • It was either that or show that picture of Bin Laden again.

  • Why Are Tesla Cars Involved In More Fatalities Than Any Other Auto Brand?
  • Seeing some of our staff screech out of the carpark doing about 50 in them tells me at least part of the reason:

    They're bought by cunts.

  • Cop shoots and kills a 2 month old baby
  • A sad indictment on society.

    Xbox has repeated the same terrible mistakes for over a decade. The reason is simple: its priorities are back-to-front.

    Reminder: Check your pensions every now and again. Especially if you're with Scottish Widows/Lloyds.

    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.

    PS5 Controller charging issues after recent update

    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.
