It's the objective case, i.e. everything that isn't nominative, so this usage would be correct. We don't have a real distinction between accusative and dative in modern english.

That being said, I'm a descriptivist who is strongly of the opinion that 'who' is always correct and 'whom' is archaic.

I lived a few years in the UK and the plugs really annoyed me compared to F.

They were really bulky but also uni-directional. So there was a lot less flexibility in tight spaces (which with the size of London flats...there were a lot of!)

Also, as a non-floridian from the northeast, all the weirdest/craziest people from my hometown moved down to Florida at one point or another.

I would guess that isn't a phenomena unique to my town.

Just make sure that it scales with weight correctly as well!

It's extra shitty because even with how expensive they are to own, cars (and the infrastructure for them) are STILL heavily subsidized.

It's just a nonsense, inefficient system all around...

I tried watching, but I turned on the stream just pre-game as they had that boxing announcer guy trying to hype up the crowd (while butchering the names of the teams and clearly having no idea what he is saying) and I just found it so cringe I turned it off.

Must have been Aldi Nord

I think some of it comes down to what your brain is used to.

I usually use mouse/keyboard, that kind of constant movement from holding the stick in a certain position is kind of foreign to me. Whereas having the right track pad basically emulating a trackpall mouse instantly felt really natural. In this case it's like a mouse in that your movement directly translates to camera movement.

You may just be more used to analog sticks

I loooove my steam controller for first-person games. The right track pad for camera controls just clicks with me. I guess it's because I'm a PC gamer first and foremost, so I'm used to mouse-like aiming rather than the analog-style stick aiming.

I never really used the left track pad though...

That being said, I was let down by the steam deck trackpads. Maybe I just have big hands, but I could never use the right track pad the same way I do with the steam controller.

Also a general comment: AA/AAA is the best if you get some rechargable batteries. No waiting for charging when something is out of juice! Plus you can just get a new set of batteries if they ever die instead of a whole new controller

And holy hell was it a bizarre nationalist spectacle!

We watched a bit on YouTube and it felt like some sort of awful scene from a movie...

It probably would be off they didn't make any seasons after the first three.
