It may be true (as in it may be satire), but this site's fact check is a bit lame. Basically just "trust us, it's fake".

Poor guy's aged twice as fast as all his peers since only he still ages when time gets stopped

Anyone picked up something good in the Easter sale? (feddit.uk)

PSA there's a big sale on the eshop until April 27. Quite a few first-party titles with a 33% discount and others with bigger discounts. I picked up Portal 1 & 2 for about £3, it really is good.

I also discovered https://www.dekudeals.com/ recently - it tracks prices over time so you can see how good the current discount is and physical/digital from different retailers.

American doctor receives email from immigration officials telling her to leave the country immediately by ladel in c/news@lemmy.world

I would assume it's a spam email and delete it. Are they really deporting people over email? Seems more like a postal letter kind of thing.

Secret mission: Shiny Museum 5 (feddit.uk)

Annoyed that I got a duplicate, but I didn't know these missions existed. I wonder if there are secret missions where you have to get two of the other shiny ex cards?

How are people getting on in vs ranked mode? (feddit.uk)

I was originally targeting Great Ball Rank 1 for the 50 hourglasses reward, but actually it's easier than I thought and I'll try for Ultra Ball Rank 1. I'm just using my Blaine deck, with a win rate of 51%, but I made it to Great Ball Rank 4 today.

I've noticed that if I'm struggling at a certain level, if I wait a day or two and try again, it feels much easier. Presumably the better players/decks are moving up to the better ranks and it's just the worse players like me who are left behind, making it easier to win games again.

There may be a new feature/event coming that lets you peek at one card in some wonder picks before making your choice (www.pokemon-zone.com)

I'm not sure of the maths, but chances would increase from 20% chance to get the card you want to ... 40%? It would be nice if it was for all wonder picks, but will have to wait for an official announcement to see how it's going to work.

This seems like such a useful feature and I hope lemmy brings it. What else does piefed do?

It's not broadcast TV, but it is British - has anyone watched Adolescence, and what did you think? (feddit.uk)

submitted 1 year ago by ladel@feddit.uk to c/britishtelly@feddit.uk

I gave it a look because it's been in the news a bit and friends gave it the thumbs up. It's a bit heavy, but not overwhelmingly so, and I enjoyed it. I'm not sure I'd put it up there as a great bit of TV, but certainly the message about what kids have to go through these days is interesting.

Wales’s 20mph speed limit has cut road deaths. Why is there still even a debate? (www.theguardian.com)

submitted 1 year ago by ladel@feddit.uk to c/unitedkingdom@feddit.uk

57 comments fedilink

Even with the caveats about limited data and untangling causation and correlation, the statistics are striking: the first year of a scheme in Wales where the speed limit on urban roads was lowered to 20mph resulted in about 100 fewer people killed or seriously injured.
