Nah.

Both? Both. Both is good.

Pardon me, I realize I was a bit vague in my statement. I think what I was referring to was specifically the Xbox 360 wireless controller.

If I remember correctly, AA batteries didn’t quite fit directly in the controller. Rather, they fit inside a small detachable casing designed specifically for their cylindrical shape, which was then clipped onto the underside of the controller. If you then purchased a rechargeable battery pack, it replaced that attachment entirely, clipping directly onto the controller in its place.

Thank you for taking the time to reply despite your situation. I’ll try to remember to ping you tomorrow, but don’t feel obligated.

That sounds interesting. Would you mind sharing a bit more of your experience, if you’re not bound by an NDA?

That is precisely how I feel, too!

Side tangent… Back in the day, I believe I had a power cable for the Game Boy, but it must have gotten lost or damaged at some point because I could never find it again.

I own an 8BitDo SN30 Pro+ controller that has a neat feature: It comes with a rechargeable battery back that is user replaceable via a simple back cover, but regular AA batteries can also be used in the same slot instead.

Kinda like an Xbox controller, except that the rechargeable battery was actually included instead of being a separate purchase, and no adapter is needed for either battery types.

Honestly, I’m glad they aren’t in a rush to constantly release slightly improved models, unlike phone manufacturers for example. Wait a few years and make the upgrade count.

Don’t threaten me with a good time

Well, if the shoe fits.

Do women know about shrinkage?

It’s more like mon-ray-ahl.

Doesn’t matter to them, the rich are isolated from any real repercussions of their behaviours. The older ones probably think they’ll be out of the game before things get worse anyway. Short term benefits for them are worth the long term issues for the rest of us, just as always.

I sincerely wish you good luck and hope you can make the trip someday! Visiting Japan has been a life long dream for my wife and I, and we are having an amazing time here. I only wish we could stay.

Same here; I live across the world. Usually, I mean. As a visitor in Japan however, I can confirm that their public transit system is every bit as convenient and efficient as we’ve been lead to believe internationally. Believe the hype.

That very same one. It is also very fast and covers vast distances, yet the ride is smooth and comfortable.

I’m literally riding the Shinkansen in Japan right now as I come across this meme.

Any harm coming to the child or other human shield is on the shitbag using them in the first place.

Asstronomical

It’s alright, I totally understand. There’s no shortage of those around, unfortunately.

I’m not screaming about the young people; I was “the young people” not that long ago. Not everyone who criticizes education is an out of touch boomer resisting every societal change.

Actually, analogue clocks have been obsoleted in almost every way by digital clocks for at least half a century, as digital wristwatches first hit the market in the 1970s. And yet, analogue clocks are still found everywhere. Classes, stores, train stations, homes, offices, not to mention the majority of wristwatches, still mostly use analogue clocks. In fact, excluding screens, I wouldn’t be surprised if most people came across more analogue clocks than digital clocks on a daily basis. They’re technologically obsolete, but haven’t fallen out of use.
