Yes please:

Internet speed record of 420,000,000 Mbps achieveddownload Baldur's Gate 3 in less than four milliseconds

The team in question is Japan's National Institute of Information and Communications Technology (via Fudzilla) and it didn't use any weird tech or microscopic distances in a lab—50 km of commercially available optical fibres and signal amplifiers were employed in the test. At an estimated peak rate of 402 Tbps or 50.25 TB/s, it's approximately 25% higher than the previous record, set last October.

Started listening to the latest GU podcast a couple of days ago, had lots of things to say.  Listened the last part today.  Forgot al the points I wanted to make.

You probably didn't miss out on much though.  Just wanted to let you know I enjoyed listening.

Thank you for listening, in my opinion the last two shows have been worth listening to Happy

Well, our original Switch is officially a handheld no more.  I wanted to play some Splatoon3 on it today, and it went from 100% to 15% in 5 minutes.

And now for the question of what to do.  Do we just accept this as our new reality?  Do I try to swap out the battery myself?  Do I send it in and pay god knows how much to have it replaced?

[videogameschronicle.com]Nintendo has officially ended Wii U repair support Support graduates to "F" U

That is unfortunate.  Our WiiU has been unusable for years now.  I keep promising my son we'll buy a new one, but never got around to it.  Perhaps I shouldn't delay this any longer.

Well. I think if the cost of repair is less than 45% of a new one you have it repaired. If more, get a new one as a hedge that the Switch 2 won't be backward compatible.
