  • Got the Ultimate 2 Wireless (both the Switch and the XBox version), connecting through Bluetooth.

    I just connected it and it worked right out of the box, however every now and again it will “hang” and the joysticks stop working. The only thing that helps is switching it to 2.4 GHz mode, wait a couple of seconds, switch back to BT and wait for it to reconnect.

    Steam finds it just fine, installed through Pacman.

    I’m on Garuda Linux (Arch-based).








  • With those huge numbers, do they even have the equivalent of a CDC? How useless must the EU equivalent CDC must be if it is THAT INEFFECTIVE IN PREVENTING MEASLES.

    One of the jobs of CDC and ECDC is to monitor and report the situation. There are countries with shitty vaccination programs (like Romania) or with strong anti-vax movements (like the US), and it’s the job of organisations like CDC/ECDC to monitor the spread of viruses and advise preventative measures if things get out of control.

    Without the CDC, we no longer know how viruses spread in the US which means everybody could be a carrier. THAT is the problem we’re discussing - something that would have been obvious to you, had you pulled your head out of your arse, Mr Genius.









  • But it’s a beautiful world of straw you live in!

    You’re close. It’s actually called: “understanding facts”.

    Hey, when there is a measles outbreak, do you think it’s going to run rampant in communities where the majority of people vaccinate their children, or is it going to run rampant in the communities where people don’t vaccinate at all? Do you know why that is, because that’s how fricken vaccines work. Before I get a flu vaccine, do I ask myself, GARSH, DID EVERYONE GET A FLU VACCINE I SURE HOPE SO!!

    See? This is what I was talking about when I said you should pull your head out of your arse.

    I never said anything remotely similar to anything you’re crying about here, mate. You would understand it if you stopped to think for three seconds, but instead you’re just assuming I’m standing on a different hill than you do and immediately go screaming that I’m wrong.

    Do you even know the top 10 countries with measles outbreaks?

    Again: it’s not the point.

    Now, I’m tired of your attitude, so here’s the two points I was making, as clear as I can write them:

    1. Even vaccinated people can transmit the virus, endangering unvaccinated people.
    2. Without CDC we won’t know how bad the situation in the US is.

    If you want to shout some more, please don’t, I’ll just ignore you. If you want to have a conversation, you can switch to that and we’ll see how it goes.
