The amount of Facebook slop accounts about car batteries catching fire is mental. Petrol of course being famously non-flammable...

China, not Russia.

China got most of their oil from Venezuela and Iran. If they want any in the future they'll have to play nicer with Trump, and promise not to take Taiwan.

Many had a premium rate phone line, and it was just a tape so if you were stuck near the end you'd have to listen to the end and potentially pay many times the game's cost.

I looked on the map. That overlooks Central Park.

If your home overlooks Central Park, I'm pretty sure you can afford a congestion charge.

Just make it illegal to sell user data to "data partners", and use cross site tracking.

Nobody actually "consents" to this shit. They just don't read.

I went on a site the other day, and a massive popup appeared before I could do anything.

Yeah, no you don't.

PS5 Controller charging issues after recent update (feddit.uk)
submitted 2 years ago by Blackmist@feddit.uk to c/ps5@lemmy.world

Is anyone else getting problems with charging from an external USB charger after the latest DualSense update?

We updated both controllers, and now neither will charge from an Anker USB charger we've been using. They both charge from the PS5 itself. The charger works fine for phones.

It's like they've updated them to no longer charge from any source other than the PS5, and maybe official PS5 charging docks. Don't have one of those to test.

Annoying to say the least, as it means playing while charging now needs a cable trailing across the living room floor.
