  • Surely a chicken egg is an egg laid by a chicken though, not an egg containing a chicken, otherwise unfertilised eggs wouldn’t be chicken eggs.

    If the mutation occurs in the creature inside the egg, then it makes sense to me that that’s where the new species begins. The chicken came first 🤔

    I’m going to stop saying chicken and egg now, it’s getting ridiculous… 😁








  • This is excellent advice 🙂

    The only part I might disagree with is this:

    Get Switch Lites for anyone who REALLY needs to be playing something else independently when the TV/“main” Switch is in use

    Obviously only if the budget allows, but if your kids are at the age where they’ll take their Switch when they visit friends or family, then the version with detachable controllers is probably better.

    The Switch has a built in kick stand, and some games, like Mario Kart, let you disconnect the controllers and have one each for a two player game. It’s handy for keeping the kids quiet for a bit, and you don’t need to carry loads of stuff.

    If the kids regularly go somewhere, like your parents perhaps, you can buy an extra dock to plug into the TV there, and the non lite Switch can use it in exactly the same way as the one at home. There’s nothing special about the dock, it essentially just connects the Switch to the TV.

    It’s a great little console with some fun, if sometimes expensive games. I play mine probably as much as my kid plays theirs 🙂






  • You say you suspect that the camera is MTP, but have you tested it with anything else? It’s worth checking the settings on the camera too, to check what it’s set up to do when it’s connected to something else.

    As you’ve said, mass storage devices work with Xiaomi phones, so changing the camera to mass storage mode should work too, and will just mean that you have to browse to the correct folder 👍
