It generally doesn't have a high opinion of translators (note that the emojis here are inserted as path markers to help with prompt debugging - but everyting else is from the LLM):

I wasn't quite sure what to think about this, so I've asked my local LLM. Seems it is fine.

Did they also finally fix google drive? Last time I needed something from a shared drive I needed to enable a third party cookie exemption for that.

What you’re referring to as family friendly I would say is more accurately described as social gaming or couch co-op. The physical aspect of multiplayer gaming on the Wii certainly added something unique to local multiplayer on the console, an experience wholly unlike a group of players sitting on a couch holding more traditional controllers.

Pretty much everybody copied it afterwards - Microsoft has Kinect, Sony has some support to use their camera for that. Switch controls can be detached for that kind of play - but there never was the high amount of well done movement games available on any other platform afterwards, and never again the good haptics of the wii remote.

We have the wii and on of our switches hooked up to the TV - in that mode we pretty much exclusively use the wii. I recently downloaded pretty much all remaining sports and dance games to get some more variety. For the switch the cool stuff is the mario cart with physical carts, and the Labo.

Being able to use the wii controllers and the balance board on the switch would've been a great thing.

From what I've seen the Bambu might do better prints - but having started 3d printing with a Flashforge printer a few years ago with the main issues I had related to their closed source slicer and some problems with spare parts I'd never buy into a closed ecosystem again. And Flashforge was doing variants of open designs, so you still could put in more effort to rebuild parts to non-Flashforge-components on issues - no such luck on the Bambu.

And for the family friendly aspect nothing after the wii beat it.

The multiplayer games there are just better than something like the switch offers, and the controllers are a good size and weight for emulating whatever they are representing in games. Stuff like tennis with the tiny light switch controllers just feels wrong.

This thing seems to be a mess with huge rightwing dicks trying to find something that sticks, with people from the other side coming up to defend her.

I think as a scientist - and especially someone in her role - sloppiness is not a valid excuse, her stepping down was correct, and nobody should make excuses for that. It also is not OK how the rightwing nutjobs are behaving here, but I've lost my faith a long time ago that there are still people who can look at both issues, so that will just be a mud slinging competition from both camps until it is forgotten.

and I was looking for a phone with a physical kb.

There's also planet computers - though the cosmo had some reliability issues at least in the early versions. My gemini still works, and I'll eventually get another cosmo. As daily phone the unihertz is more comfortable, but the two communicators allow you to do proper work with touch typing - on a keyboard better than the larger GPD pocket.

The airport allows you to keep your knife

It is a Victorinox swiss champ. Only flew twice last year - both times forgot the pocket knife. First time I stuck it in my backpack and hoped they don't notice, which they either didn't, or didn't care. At the destination I realized that I also had my multitool in the backpack.

On the way back I forgot it yet again, and just was trying to put it a bit deep under my jacket - and while waiting to go through saw from some distance two police officers opening the blades, discussing it, and just putting it back.

Thank you, the search result for that is glorious.

I'll probably need to look into setting up a dead man switch now to let everyone know if I get murdered by disgruntled parents.

Wow. Do you have a product name so I can gift that to people I hate?

Also, who exactly did you piss off to get that as present?

Do you happen to have pictures/videos? I can't imagine what you're talking about.

I'm using opensuse tumbleweed a lot - this summer I've found an installation not touched for 2 years. Was about to reinstall when I decided to give updating it a try. I needed to manually force in a few packages related to zypper, and make choices for conflicts in a bit over 20 packages - but much to my surprise the rest went smoothly.
