Is there a timer that goes off every month or so that lets another major publication editor approve an editorial that's titled something like We Have to Face It: Napoleon Would Be Cancelled If He Were Alive Today

Oh duh, I plugged the Switch 1 directly into the receiver, which I won't do now because it doesn't support 4K / 120hz. Looks like I need to upgrade if I want to do that with the Switch 2.

I was able to get surround sound working on the switch 1.

Dumb question, but I use the optical out from my tv to link to my older receiver for surround sound. Playstation 5 and the Series|X and other consoles allow this pass through but the Switch 2 seems to only read my tv as being stereo and I can't override it. Any ideas on how I can get around it?

Okay, so I traded in a bunch of games that I wasn't super attached to to Willow Games here in Vancouver and here's what I picked up! Lemme know your thoughts.

On my green desk are: a Nintendo Switch 2, 007 Legends (Wii U), Phantasy Star Online Episodes I & II (Gamecube), Bravely Default, a blue 8 MB PS2 memory card, and a blue Xbox (original) controller

There’s a restaurant in Monterey called Tarpy’s that we always go to when we’re in town. I finally looked up the origin of the name and I cannot handle the choice or the wacky spin they put on the story!!!:

Storied past. Tasty present.
The name Tarpy comes from Matt Tarpy, an Irish settler who in his day, was a well-liked vigilante living in present-day Watsonville. Tarpy sold a portion of his land to Sarah and Murdock Nicholson and not long after, a dispute ensued over property boundaries. Tarpy's sense of summary justice got the better of him and he shot Sarah "accidentally" nine times! After being found guilty of killing Sarah, an angry mob decided it was Tarpy's turn to pay. He was publicly hanged in an area now known as Tarpy Flats.
The beautiful stone building that is home to our
3.5-acre restaurant was originally part of the Ryan Ranch family homestead. The structure dates back to 1917 when Mr. and Mrs. Charles Ryan bought 454 acres of rolling hills and meadows, then known as Saucito Ranch, and built their dream home. Through the years the building changed hands - Tarpy's Roadhouse opened in 1992.
