WTF is this ad in my recording app in c/mildlyinfuriating@lemmy.world
[–] ladel@feddit.uk 6 points 5 hours ago

I've seen ads like this for Temu (Teemu?) where they have a bunch of seemingly random products and I actually want to click it to find out what they are.

What are you playing this weekend? 2025-05-16 in c/nintendo@lemmy.world
[–] ladel@feddit.uk 2 points 1 day ago

I was playing it with my kid as well and we really enjoyed it, even though it was me just directing them what to do for a lot of it.

I think I encountered one glitch in single player: there were three lens cubes in the room that I needed to use, and at one point I just lost one. It's possible it got fired into a dark corner of the room and I didn't see it, but I think it glitched away. Not too annoying since I just reloaded the level to do it again.

Southport attack survivor calls for kitchen knives to be blunt tipped in c/unitedkingdom@feddit.uk

Not sure what your point is here? We all know what the Southport attack was.

Why do you think all knife deaths are due to mass murderers on a mission?

If you ban all potential weapons, deaths due to weapons would fall, yes.

It's not expecting to stop all murders. It's about reducing deaths.

Anyone here been following the Lucy Letby inquiry? in c/askuk@feddit.uk
[–] ladel@feddit.uk 1 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago) (1 children)

That's one of the most puzzling things about this case, why the defence didn't put up a fight. They had a medical expert ready to dispute the the prosecution's assertions but never called them... The stats were being questioned externally as soon as the trial started, but they never touched on that. It's really bizarre.

I was, but I thought it ended a few months ago? I know there's the press conference by her new lawyer to say they'll appeal to the CCRC. Has there been any updates since then?

Asian Champions League QF results (all games hosted as a single leg in Saudi Arabia) (infosec.pub)
 

Who would've thought that with the money pumped into a few top Saudi clubs and hosting all the games from the QFs onwards in Saudi, that Saudi clubs would dominate?

Well done to Kawasaki, though. I doubt they'll go any further.

There's something cool about getting a Japanese card, isn't there?

Anyone picked up something good in the Easter sale? (feddit.uk)

PSA there's a big sale on the eshop until April 27. Quite a few first-party titles with a 33% discount and others with bigger discounts. I picked up Portal 1 & 2 for about £3, it really is good.

I also discovered https://www.dekudeals.com/ recently - it tracks prices over time so you can see how good the current discount is and physical/digital from different retailers.

Secret mission: Shiny Museum 5 (infosec.pub)
 

Annoyed that I got a duplicate, but I didn't know these missions existed. I wonder if there are secret missions where you have to get two of the other shiny ex cards?

How are people getting on in vs ranked mode? (feddit.uk)
 

I was originally targeting Great Ball Rank 1 for the 50 hourglasses reward, but actually it's easier than I thought and I'll try for Ultra Ball Rank 1. I'm just using my Blaine deck, with a win rate of 51%, but I made it to Great Ball Rank 4 today.

I've noticed that if I'm struggling at a certain level, if I wait a day or two and try again, it feels much easier. Presumably the better players/decks are moving up to the better ranks and it's just the worse players like me who are left behind, making it easier to win games again.

There may be a new feature/event coming that lets you peek at one card in some wonder picks before making your choice (www.pokemon-zone.com)
 

I'm not sure of the maths, but chances would increase from 20% chance to get the card you want to ... 40%? It would be nice if it was for all wonder picks, but will have to wait for an official announcement to see how it's going to work.

Just updated the app - looks like ranked matches are coming (tomorrow?) (feddit.uk)
 

Manually updated the app and it downloaded some data, probably related to the new set. Wonder pick has had a bit of a visual change as well. If you can't see the new set tomorrow, go and update it manually

It's not broadcast TV, but it is British - has anyone watched Adolescence, and what did you think? (feddit.uk)
 

I gave it a look because it's been in the news a bit and friends gave it the thumbs up. It's a bit heavy, but not overwhelmingly so, and I enjoyed it. I'm not sure I'd put it up there as a great bit of TV, but certainly the message about what kids have to go through these days is interesting.
