Apparently according to other comments a mouse only works in games, but not in Switch UI menus. The Joycon works as a mouse in both.
I would think a wireless mouse and a wired mouse are functionally the same as far as the device connected to it is concerned. The USB dongle of the wireless mouse handles the wireless part and then delivers the same type of signals to the PC/host device that a wired mouse would.
Yeah it’s definitely a different class of device. Did you see the mouse connected in any way, like as a controller, or did it just work in the right context (ie in game)?
I wonder if they did it out of some abundance of caution for security, out of fear that some 3rd party controller might find a way to hack the device.
Yeah, meanwhile the Joycon works in system UI, so you would think a regular mouse would also.
Per my own testing with a Logitech M650, I don’t think you can connect a mouse to the Switch 2.
Are you sure? I tried, expected a mouse pointer to appear on screen, but it didn’t. I used the same adapter I use to connect my mouse to my Android phone.
Edit: Just tried again, both top and bottom ports, the USB-C to A adapter plus bluetooth mouse dongle work fine in my phone, but not in the Switch. This is using a Logitech M650. I don’t think it can do it guys.
I haven’t tried connecting by bluetooth directly but I doubt that will work either. Using the Joycon as a mouse is pretty limited also - I can quite happily run my M650 over my belly and at any angle to control things, but the Joycon doesn’t convert to a mouse unless it is horizontal. The find controllers page also doesn’t really imply a mouse can be connected, just that you can use a Joycon in mouse mode.
I torrent on my media PC and stream from there.
I think that Will Smith is pussy whipped by his wife and Scientology. I think she uses the church against him, with the threat that they will take his kids away and hide them from him. That’s the only explanation I have for his (slightly delayed) response with Chris Rock, and with Will being ok with his wife grooming their son’s underage friend and later having an open relationship with him on the side.
It baffles me that Trump thinks it’s a good idea to mess with the school that most lawyers come from.
Some videos from just before:
Nominally EU voltage is 230V, and may be 240V. In fact, it can be as high as 230V +10% = 253V. Higher voltage means more power for a given current, so nominally it’s 16A x 230V = 3.68kW, but you could have say 16A x 250V = 4.0kW.
If your sauna is 400V then it sounds like you’ll be 230V (400V / sqrt(3) = 230). But the voltage can also be 230V -6% = 216V, so 220V is within scope.
But yeah, standard voltages in the EU are either 230V/400V or 240V/415V. They’ve been harmogenised, but if you look at the numbers you’ll see the trick - 230V +10% is roughly the same as 240V +6%. So the range is 230V-6% and 240V+6%.
You’ve got a 3 phase connection though so you might find you’ve got different single phase breakers on different phases (eg lights on one phase, sockets on another), with slightly different voltages for each one.
Linktree is a social media site that gives you a simple web page with all your links to your actual social media sites. This way, you can provide one link to your fans, taking up less space in a profile, then fans can pick and choose to follow on whichever services they prefer.
Usually, it’ll be something like instagram, onlyfans, fansly; maybe some others like snapchat or kik. I think sometimes music artists use Linktree sites too, ie completely SFW, but primarily they exist for NSFW content creators.
I think it was on a podcast or something, but someone somewhere once said that people/aliens in the future might look back on our civilisation and assume so much about us from social media bots. They might think that we go around greeting each other going “Link in bio” like Vulcans say “Live long and prosper”.
Your reply is very well written and on the whole I agree. The one thing I would say is that I am not simply dismissing the mainstream usage of the word, but pointing out its misuse as intentional deception given that the usage contradicts what the word describes. I aim to point out that the word is actively being used for propaganda, and encourage others to associate it as such.
The more I look at it I think it might be a 132kV line on a 400kV tower, with the intention to upgrade it some time in the future. I say this because the insulators aren’t actually the full length of the spacing from the tower, there’s a separator between the tower and the start of the insulator fins. This makes me think they’ve left room for longer 400kV insulators to be installed.
Saying that though I have no idea, there could have been all sorts of other considerations that led to a configuration like that.
That pun was totally intended, and I cannot fault you for it.
I was thinking 132kV, but wasn’t sure if this is Europe where you might find 100kV (although again it varies by country). In the UK, 132kV is the boundary between distribution and transmission. DNO’s (Distribution Network Operators) generally use 11kV, 33kV, 66kV (generally rare but used in some areas eg in North West England) and 132kV, TNO’s (Transmission) use 132kV, 275kV and 400kV. Although, a lot of 275kV substations are built to 400kV spec (eg in Scotland), so that they can upgrade in the future.
You sometimes get this with power lines, they might install higher voltage insulators then run it at a lower voltage until some time later when the network is upgraded. This spoils the game of guess the voltage/makes it more challenging, and you end up with really weird looking connections between large pylons and small poles.
Fun fact: You can estimate the voltage by the length of the insulators. My guess is this is around 100kV (2x 3 phase circuits), around the border of transmission and distribution voltages.
You can also estimate the capacity by the number of conductors per phase. This has a pair of lines for each phase, so a fair chunk, but not the 3 or 4 conductors you sometimes see (although maybe you mainly see that on higher transmission voltages.
Priests are being made into mandatory reporters in Washington state. In Washington state, the mandatory reporting law appears to require reporting of all past events of abuse - it does not make reference to recent acts or imminent risk.
Sec. 2. (1) (a) When [any member of these groups] has reasonable cause to believe that a child has suffered abuse or neglect, he or she shall report such incident, or cause a report to be made, to the proper law enforcement agency or to the department
https://app.leg.wa.gov/billsummary/?BillNumber=5375&Year=2025
You’ve touched on a key point, I think. Doctors and other professionals have mandatory reporting because a) they are in positions of respect and trust within the community, and b) they are professionals, as defined in law, and have standards to uphold.
Priests definitely meet the definition of a), however b) is a bit of a sticking point: their role isn’t defined by law, but by the church. Furthermore, a court can order you to go to therapy sessions, but they can’t order you to go to confession - it’s completely voluntary. A therapist could tease out previous abuse, but a priest will only hear what the confessor wants to tell them about.
I’m in line with you in thinking that everyone should report abuse, but I think that a priest has more in common with an average person in this regard compared to a person working in a legally protected profession. There would be legal consequences for impersonating a therapist, but not for impersonating a priest.
Fair. That’s got me wondering, perhaps if you’re in a game with Joycon mouse support it might lock into mouse mode. One thing that annoys me about using a Joycon as a mouse is that you have to have it on a horizontal surface - I like using a mouse on all sorts of weird things and at different angles (eg curved sofa arms or my belly) and the Joycon doesn’t work for this in UI menus.
