• 60 out of 100 times it’ll “sync” and freeze with all 4 LEDs on. The Wii U does a little beep but doesn’t show the controller and no inputs work.
• 38 out of 100 times the same thing will happen but with all LEDs off
  • You need to remove the batteries in order to take the wiimotes out of these states
• 2 out of 100 times the wiimotes actually connect, but show with 1 battery bar and almost no inputs go through (and the ones that do are extremely laggy, except for the power button)
  • The manual states that if this happens you can remove the batteries, wait 3 minutes and connect (without syncing) again. That does fixes it sometimes, but it really only worked once for each wiimote.
  • A truly successful connection only happens after the “low battery one”, and even then it seems to be hard to achieve for the first time.
    • Afterwards you’re supposed to be able to reconnect without syncing and then not encounter the issues anymore. That was true for the pink wiimote, but the blue wiimote had to be synced again. I spent quite a few hours trying and wasn’t able to get a successful connection.
    • If you connect the pink wiimote that was working when the other wiimote is in the 4 LEDs freeze state it’ll break the connection of the other one and make you need to sync it again
      • Now none of my aliexpress wiimotes are synced and idk when I’ll be able to sync them again

Behind the scenes, some of the most powerful people around Trump have been trying to persuade him to attack Venezuela
— and remove its president, Nicolšs Maduro
— in what would be an extraordinary escalation of months-long military build-up in the Caribbean.
Those in favour of the strikes say they could bring democracy and prosperity to Venezuela
and provide a way for the eight million people who have fled the country in the past ten years to return.
These includ…

Will Trump invade Venezuela — and what comes next?
Pressure is ramping up on Maduro’s regime, amid reports Trump has spoken to the leader by phone. Inside the White House, advisers are pushing for the US to do more

Another evening of filter refactoring and optimization, a few more nice performance jumps.
I've now done a first pass (remove deprecated method signatures, add explicit input location, add NVTX trace data, do easy GPU optimization if I see an obvious low effort win) on all filters A-F alphabetically plus a few later on that were priorities for one reason or other.
90 down (of which 23 were optimized and the rest just refactored), 115 to go.
Some of the remaining ones sh…
