Are you using any other bluetooth dongles for headphones, mouse, keyboard etc? If so, disconnect them. If you're not using any dongles then check all your USB ports (including hubs etc) to make sure a friend/family member hasn't hidden a dongle in there as a joke. Some of them are low profile...

I always assumed the devs/publishers arranged for games to be on game pass for a certain period of time for a one-off up-front payment. So the devs/publishers of The Forgotten City (for example) will have received £xxxxxx from Microsoft up-front to allow the game to be available for xx months.

I had the results from my blood test this morning. It was all clear. Which is a problem because it's supposed to be red.

I've just played through Polyroll (https://hofstudios.itch.io/polyroll) and really enjoyed it. It's basically a Sonic clone.

You can use two latches. Fix one on the back of one of the doors which bolts up into the frame above. This will secure the first door. The second latch can then be used on the second door to secure it to the first door. If you want a nicer finish, you can use sliding latch bolts like this...

Don't know if you've already solved this, but you can import from Excel into MS Project. It should pretty much accept the data in the format you've got it. Project will then display it as a Gantt chart.

Running is a special case, since 5K and 10K are recognised competitive running distances. Same as saying 'Half-marathon' instead of 13.1 Miles or 21 Km.

People forget that 99.9% availability isn't the same as 100% availability. There's a good calculator here - https://uptime.is/ 99.9% availability means that you should expect the service to be unavailable for around 9 hours per year.

I wonder who gets to claim the new land which is being created? I'm guessing the government will have it and sell it off eventually.

I've missed a few pages, but since you've now got evidence of the damage shouldn't you approach the original builder and ask them to make amends in the first instance?

Does The Hide count? Nevertheless, I thought it was pretty good.

Was it 'The Machine Stops'? (THE MACHINE STOPS ... E.M. Forster (visbox.com), The Machine Stops - Wikipedia). Fantastic story which I've read a few times. Dates back to 1909.

History will decide. Emmeline Pankhurst and the suffragettes performed acts which where much more violent and disruptive than Extinction Rebellion, but are now considered to be heroes when looking back.

I went to a wedding a couple of years ago which was 'wear what you want'. Everyone turned up in smart-casual (shirt, smart jeans etc.) apart from one guy who turned up in a t-shirt and casual shorts. Don't be that guy.

I played Bloodstained when it was on Xbox PC Game Pass. It was free on there for quite some time (you've now got to pay for it). So there is precedent for it turning up in Humble.

I'm highlighting that it isn't always as dramatic as you are making out. Actors play characters of a different background all the time. I'm not hearing outrage whenever a non-scot is given the role of Macbeth, for example. Maybe John Barrowman is a more suitable Doctor Who reference? He's a...

Yea. Remember the backlash that scottish actor got for playing an english Doctor Who? Worst doctor ever. /s

Lexx I had never seen sci-fi like it before. Completely off the mainstream path.
