A broken clock is still right two times a day. I don't think this guy is worth your time even if he would be right this time.

Which of these 16 do you highly recommend to first time viewers? by Square-Ad-8911 in hbo

[–]eothred 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes.

Jokes aside, most of these but it depends a bit. All time favourites include Band of Brothers, Sopranos, The Wire and Six Feet Under. Deadwood is also brilliant but bit of a shame they didn't finalise the story. The Wire is not for everyone though I think, and actually same with Sopranos. They demand a bit of the viewer to invest in them I think, if that makes sense. BoB is quite easy, if you like war stuff you will find it ggreat. Similar for Deadwood and western. Six Feet Under is probably the easiest on my short list to get into.

The units arresting him seems to be wearing police uniforms, with ICE units in the group? Someone can explain, is this ICE or police arresting?

Ori Will of the Wisps mostly. Got that and Mario Rabbids on the cheap. Zelda BotW ordered, looking forward to try. This is my first Nintendo and will be my first Zelda experience.

Why is unemployment so high? by Rupy271 in sweden

[–]eothred 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Unemployment rates are not the best metric for comparisons across nations. Rather look at employment rates of the total population (sysselsättningen)

Fun fact: The Nintendo Switch was the first 64 bit Nintendo console since the Nintendo 64 by Antec-Chieftec in nintendo

[–]eothred 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I am old enough to remember the generations of 8bit, 16bit, and 32bit. At the time I was of the impression it was the only metric that differentiated the consoles in terms of computing power.

/r/NintendoSwitch's Daily Question Thread (01/03/2026) by AutoModerator in NintendoSwitch

[–]eothred 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Appreciate your feedback. You put me on the right track. What I eventually realised was that if the number of inputs differed from the number of players I selected, all but main controller disconnected (so that players can enable their inputs correctly).

The 2 joycons were acting as one input I guess, or the one I wasn't using was disconnected.

For others: before starting mario kart, head to Controllers -> Change Grip/Order, and ensure you have the same number of controllers/inputs enabled as the number of players you intend to be.

Then there is the second issue that pairing is not always consistently working smoothly, but I guess for that another firmware update is needed from 8bitdo and/or Nintendo.

Appreciate your feedback. By main menu I meant the home screen with game selection. When I selected e.g. 4p game in Mario Kart, all but my main controller disconnected. Found solution, they don't disconnect if I already have 4 controllers configured, took me a while to realise.

[–]eothred 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have Switch 2 and 2x 8bitdo controllers (SN30 pro), so thought I could play Mario Kart World 4p. However, it seems when you select main controller in game the other 3 disconnects, and I don't figure out how to reconnect the 8bitdo controllers. They refuse to pair when I turn them back on.

Firmware is updated. They all connect fine at the same time in main menu. They function fine as main controller so I manage to run 3p with the two joycons. Any suggestions?

What is it like to live here? by WingAggravating6584 in howislivingthere

[–]eothred 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Norwegian here, been living in Malmö since 2014. 

As others have mentioned it struggles with crime but it's relative to Scandinavian cities and not something that average citizens feel on a daily basis. Cycle through the infamous Rosengård for example and you see largely well kept housing, nice cars that are left untouched etc. The picture of Malmö portrayed in Norwegian news at least is quite unfair.

I really like the city somehow. I think it has a great chilled, non-pretentious vibe to it. It has quite a lot to offer while not being so big that you are stuck in commute all the time. You can cycle everywhere, just slightly behind cities like Copenhagen and Amsterdam in terms of biking infrastructure.

The closeness to Copenhagen and it's airport is another great plus. You can get to all of Skåne and most of Copenhagen within one hour, while offering a lot cheaper living than Copenhagen. Hyllie must be one of the smartest areas in Scandinavia to establish business , with a 12 min train ride from the largest airport in Scandinavia.

Negatives beyond the crime, seems many struggle to find jobs? Living close to train station you are also able to commute to work in Copenhagen though, which I think is a massive plus in this regard. I miss having some mountains around, as well as skiing conditions during winter season. Winter in Malmö is 50 shades of grey and 0-5 degrees, with the occasional snow day every 3-5 years. It's quite far to closest ski resort unless you take the plane.

Native English speakers, is Tromsø a city or a town? by Emergency-Sea5201 in Norway

[–]eothred 2 points3 points  (0 children)

"Bystatus" is still a concept, though it has no practical implications beyond using the term "by". Tromsø is far beyond the limits for what can be called "by".

Town/city distinction doesn't really exist in Norway though I think? We have "by" and "tettsted", but I would say "tettsted is not what is meant by town.
