Thanks for the reply. I’m going to go the route of reworking an existing controller and seeing if I can make a double joystick controller.

I’ve wanted to make one of these for my Switch. Could anybody help me get started? Can I build it from scratch or would I be buying a kit?
Not ideal that we had a percentage of our MacBooks on x86 cpus when the M1’s came out. But I will say they are still running strong. Others have pointed out that newer OS updates won’t work on the older MacBooks. But that’s not a deal breaker for us as we don’t run anything that’s OS specific enough to make the older models obsolete. We have factored in 5 - 7 years of use out of the laptops and we’re on course for that. I myself and using a 10 year old MacBook at home, and although I can’t fire up the latest Adobe Premiere on it, I can certainly get 99% of my work done on it.
I manage my schools IT - and when we started out a few years ago my board were pushing aggressively for Chromebooks. The service provider were talking about how they could roll out hundreds of Chromebooks at the touch of a button. When I asked about the lifespan of a Chromebook I got vague answers. I knew we would get a couple of years max out of each one so I instead pushed for much more expensive MacBooks. 5 years on and we are still using our original MacBook we got back then, with photoshop and other software.
I quit it years ago (I think almost 7 years or so). The thing is I didn’t really look for a replacement. I realised that I wasn’t really keeping in touch with loved ones as much as I was looking at the heavily curated feeds showing me how “perfect” their lives were. The worst thing about this is I could look at a post from a cousin or friend showing me their kitchen remodel or their beautiful holiday pics and meanwhile the gossip from my family contacts told me what was actually going on (but they had maxed out their credit cards for the remodel and holiday couple were actually in the middle of a divorce). Rather than trying to get my family and friends to be more truthful I decided to give my sanity a a time to recover.
My go to travel meals are:
Bread with cheese (and almost whatever else you might put in there). Wrap it in foil and it will be ready to eat whenever.
Cold pasta with cheese - or even normal pasta with tomato sauce cold is great. My Italian friends eat this for lunch regularly.
Cold pizza slices are great - I normally make simple pizza using baguettes and tomato sauce (passata) with cheese. One baguette is enough to make pizza for my family of 4.
Pasta salad - pasta cooked and cooked and then salad of your choice - even cold cuts of meat to well in here and it’s economical to make a huge amount and put it in the fridge
Actually thinking about it, I eat a lot of lunches made from cold leftovers and I think they taste brilliant without having to heat them up. Obviously things like soup, or ramen noodles and other hot liquid meals don’t taste good at all cold.
I really feel for my ISSs brothers and sisters and your unaffordable medicine. I count myself lucky living where I do.
Apart from this piece of garbage, who by the way took the time to think about and execute this awful directive, I’m genuinely sad at anyone in the general public who will read this story and think that it was the right thing to do
My vote goes to Shadow of the Colossus. The story, the mood, those damn creatures. Just enough frustration to keep you going and enough variation to not make it boring.
This is ridiculously cool! I used to build tiny indoor kites that you could fly with a vent of fan. But this looks like something completely different to outdoor kites. Did you make this kite? What makes them different from outdoor kites? They seem to be moving in slow motion.
This is ridiculously cool! I love flying kites and used to build tiny indoor kites that you could fly next to a vent or fan. But this is something completely. Are these specialised kites? They seem to fly really slowly compared to normal outdoor kites
Netherlands - we have some of the cleanest tap water here. You can drink water from any tap. Ironically bottled water from the shops is a big seller here and you see people with liters of the stuff in shopping trolleys and I’ve never been able to figure out why anyone would spend money on something that we have an abundance of in our houses
I have a Samsung mono laser printer. The toner lasts for years and it never ever lets me down. Just bought a Canon Pixma colour inkjet, for my sticker printing. I can replace all the carteidges with 3rd party ones for €10.
