Looks nice, especially the anchovy pizza! The salad does have a very American vibe to it - it is the lack of different veggies maybe.

White feels too similar to England, and you can't be having that as a Welsh fan.

I did quite like the old black and yellow (from the flag of Dewi Sant). I do wonder how that would look inverted with a black trim.

I've thought that a few English Teacher songs felt a little Jockstrapy. 'Not Everyone Gets to go to Space' specifically.

I can't comment on the turbo, but I have had little issue with queuing around 6-10 GMT or weekends in EUW. Queue time averages around 1-3mins. I am normally playing with a 3-5 stack though if that effects anything.

Managed to somehow get it in one, but can't share my score as it reveals the answer. Bit of a design flaw there.

As someone who watched a lot of horrible histories, I am a sucker for their jokes and style. Very exciting!

Believe it or not, Valve do actually make games too, and these games do contain lootboxes. From the article:

...attorney general's office called out Counter-Strike 2, Team Fortress 2, and Dota 2 specifically

They have been burnt for this in some other countries in the past and so they have developed alternatives which are location specific. Not sure if New York would've been too specific a place for this to be enabled or if they just didn't care enough here.

Valve do have a history of popularising shading monetisation techniques e.g. battle passes. They are better than a lot of the competition, but far from being the saint that a lot of gamers believe them to be.

Even if there is a investigation, it'll probably go in a similar direction as the Russia Report a few years ago: stalled, played around like a political football, then forgotten about, or anything meaningful being "out of scope".

I've got a similar model. Build quality is pretty good. Although I have had issues with the speakers and one of the charging ports (there is redundancy here tho as it comes with 2 USBC). Chassis is all aluminium. Not sure exactly the touchpad material - probably plastic, with no haptics.

Overall the design is modelled on Macbooks with great screens and similar shape, but with handy extras like some actual ports.

They are just white-labeled from other companies so you might be able to find them cheaper, but overall they are sold at a fair price compared to mainstream brands.

Welsh ball is looking so much faster than the last couple of weeks. Makes for a much more exciting watch. Costelow looking strong in his kicking game too.

I wonder what will happen to the thousands that are currently arrested, or in limbo awaiting a verdict.
