Anyone dealt with stick drift on your controllers? I have 2 for PS5 that have started drifting. I’ve read it could be just taking it apart and cleaning it could fix it - but not sure how difficult it is.

Or should I just toss them and get new ones.

late af on this but: if you feel comfortable opening them up & spraying either electrical contact cleaner or high-concentration isopropyl alcohol in the potentiometers of the offending sticks, you can buy some more usable time with them. that said once they start wearing to the point that conductive grit is causing drift they generally start re-drifting sooner & sooner. if you already have the tools on hand to do so the only real investment is the time it takes you to do it. whether that's valuable enough to warrant a new controller purchase for what....60, 70 dollars? is up to you

Picked it up yesterday, played for 2 hours and think I touched the controller for maybe 5 minutes total of that. Spent like a half hour hearing 3 middle aged dudes discuss how to talk to women. A+ game.

So we've established that the People's Front of Judea hates the Judean People's Front due to irreconcilable differences, and there are no good Leftists or Democrats.

It's very difficult to say how the chudbots who support literally anything that the messaging system tells them to support keep seeming like "The majority"

If it makes you feel any better, this is precisely how right wingers in their own spaces talk about the GOP and the right in general vs Dems/the left. They wring their hands about how they hamstring themselves with infighting, and how that makes it nearly impossible to compete with the mindless hordes on the other side who move in lockstep under the control of a media machine.

poo poo like this is amazing. Both sides seeing each other in exactly the same ways, so one of these groups has to be living in a fantasy world yet neither will acknowledge it. I definitely realize the right doesn't march in lockstep, especially after seeing the house republicans tear themselves apart at every opportunity, but I do feel they have a much much better media presence than the left does. I know why the right thinks the left has this huge media bias (reality as a left-wing bias as the saying goes), but drat they must really suck at judging the power of Fox News, OANN, and a thousand morons on youtube.

Part of the deal is that the republicans are genuinely in a minority. They're a minority rule party who only has power because of our bizarre electoral system. By population they're like a third of the country. So their view that they're underdogs against an overwhelming tide of "people ruining the country" is correct, except for you know the whole notion that respecting people's identity and bodily autonomy, trying not to roast the planet, being humane toward immigrants, and taxing the rich would ruin the country.

A lot of conservatives fear not only the country being destroyed, but that when minorities get the reins of power the current dynamic will just reverse and whites will be either repressed or straight-up ethnically cleansed.

The difference is at the end of the day 99.9% of the handwringing right wingers will vote for whoever their candidate is. Also the other difference is that there is no left wing messaging machine and it's obvious to anyone who isn't brainpoisoned.

The obvious irony being that yes, there is plenty of reason to fear our government being hugely motivated by a small group of religious extremists determined to inflict their beliefs on everyone else, just not the flavor of religion she’s talking about

Cooking question for my football food friends: yesterday I roasted some pork loins, and have a good sized piece left over and still whole.
Are there any good recipes for something like this sliced thinly with a manoline? I don't feel like just having a repeat of it tomorrow, I want to do something else with it but I don't have any good ideas.

edit: the pork is already cooked if that matters

I don't think you're going to have much luck slicing cooked pork loin with a mandolin, try a bread or other serrated knife while it's still cold if you want it really thin. I've done similar, and make a sticky honey-soy based sauce and some roast broccoli turns it into semi-chinese/asian food, over noodles or rice.
