If you live somewhere rural…birdwatching.

Combination is the best way.

Want to reheat a pizza slice? Microwave for half a minute/minute then in the air fryer to crisp it up. Ends up better than the first time around many times imo and done in seconds if you heat the air fryer up to 200°c first

Yes, extremely easy to set up for schools, cheaper than alternatives, and simple to problem solve for teachers.

EU commission, really. That’s the only way

That would be incredible

Spoken like someone who clearly doesn’t work in finance.

The numpad is essential for my work. You’re not seeing it from the perspective of myself who uses it as a calculator with automatic text entry while producing documents and estimations. That is my job, and it requires the numpad/calculator layout.

The problem is, we are increasingly a minority. The majority of people now see nothing wrong with using default browsers and apps, they see ads as completely normal, they trust Google, tiktok, etc with no issues.

Bear in mind whereas I grew up with what I call the golden age of the internet, late 90s to late 00s, those today know nothing different than the internet as it is now. I’ve tried explaining this to people before - the response is always indifference. Apply that to the countless millions (billions?!) of mainstream users worldwide. It’s sad, but it’s how it is.

I honestly think the only way this is going to be stopped is if and when the EU commission step in.

But I live in a rural English town where the most exciting thing that happens is the elderly folk fighting over who has control over the flowers near the rectory. Are you saying they are russian agents? For real?

Edit: and now you’ve edited your post, making mine seem like nonsense.

Xenoblade has no relevance to anything that came before it (aside from a small couple of references).

Xenoblade 1, 2, 3 can be played in any order. They are self contained aside from certain references. 1 is more serious, 2 vastly more light-hearted (for most of it, anyway). 3 takes place countless centuries after the other two with references to them in certain circumstances, removes the anime-ness of 2 and makes things vastly more serious. There’s really nothing lost playing them out of order.

Playing in order gives you the “oh shit, it’s that place”, or person or music or whatever experience as you go on, but you would get that just as easily in any order I’d imagine. And the game works great on Yuzu on PC in 4k too.

Edit: yes there is an overarching plot in the trilogy, which reaches its conclusion in 3’s expansion. But the games are structured in a way that is best for new players while rewarding long term fans.

First off, that image is a MAJOR FUCKING SPOILER and taken from the end of the game. I’d advise to delete it and never look at it again until you’ve finished at least the first game.

Yep. Amazing series, avoid all spoilers or discussion until you’ve completed them. The final chapters of DR2 are some of my favourite ever.

Be wary of the content depending on who you’re playing around. Lots of really fucked up shit in this series, plus the language (such as when Kokichi calls Miu a fucking stupid cum dumpster, etc in DRV3. But once you’ve got that far you know exactly what danganronpa is like).

Xenoblade 3.

a world where each person only has only ten years to live and is forced to fight throughout in a never-ending war between two nations in a decaying land. There’s a lot of depth surrounding the main characters, especially joint protagonist Mio who has only 3 months life remaining at the start of the story. Game gets real fucking dark.

And nah you don’t need to play the first two to enjoy it, as long as you avoid the DLC expansion as that’s the series conclusion.

Edit: also the most believable and well written romance between two characters I’ve ever seen in a game and the fantastic VA makes a huge impact (all UK talent - Mio’s VA is better known for Peaky Blinders, Jenna Coleman is better known for Dr Who, for example). And anyone who says they didn’t cry in chapter 5/6 is a liar.

Worked fine for me in the UK, not sure if Google play counts us as in the EU these days or not

Weird, mine has been absolutely rock solid. And I don’t touch the oculus software, just SteamVR. I’ve played hundreds of hours of Bonelab and Half Life 2 VR etc

The only issue I’ve ever had is having to replug in the usb cable at the start if my pc is started up with it plugged in… but as it’s almost always stored in a box unless I use it, that’s rarely ever a problem.

Maybe it’s the connector on the cable end that plugs into the headset that’s dodgy in your case
