Just be wary of the dog.

So she asked me, ‘What was your dog’s name growing up?’ and I said, ‘Suzette Monet.’

🤔

Well, I have kids. So that 8 hour game will last me a month. Combine that with a 20 year backlog…

Lol. 90 hours games. Fuck that shit. I’ve never been on board with that nonsense. Give me a decent 8 hour game and stop destroying the lives of your employees with never ending crunch.

Last time I was on The Big Island (which was a while ago) there was a tourist in front of us standing on the dried lava with shorts and flip-flops.

Yeah. 11th gen Framework 13, so one of the first ones. Since I got it I had to use Windows exclusively because of some client work, and battery life was pitiful. 2-3 hours perhaps? Once that project finished I swapped out the SSD and put on Ubuntu with KDE. I was expecting the batter life to be worse, but it is demonstrably better. I now get more like 6 hours, albeit with my power plan on efficiency.

Switching from Windows to Linux on my Framework laptop makes my battery last 2-3 times as long. They should just have a switch to Linux recommendation to reduce your carbon footprint.

“These counterfeit phones, Cohen said, were either out of warranty or contained counterfeit parts, but Apple “wrongly” believed that they were real phones under real warranties”

So not counterfeit. Just real iPhones that were out of warranty or has been repaired by a third party.

I just went cold turkey because I can’t/won’t watch content with ads, and already felt the cost of our streaming services was too much for what we get out of it.

What I’ve found myself doing is if I do buy from Amazon and it’s below the free shipping amount, I try and buy from a marketplace seller who ships themselves for free. Often this ends up matching the Prime price, but it’s buried further down the result because it doesn’t have Prime shipping. Or I buy the same product via eBay, which is mostly cheaper. But main thing is, I’ve found I just buy less. Like A LOT less. As a family we’d often get 3 or 4 Amazon deliveries a week. That’s not been replaced with orders from other retailers. It’s almost as if having Prime encourages you to buy stuff you maybe don’t need!

We are halfway through it!

I unsubscribed in January and still have too much stuff to watch. Although that is helped by being in the UK and having iPlayer I guess. I’ve also spent way less on impulse buying crap because of the free shipping. Absolutely do not miss Prime.

I think it’s just the two Mana games that are going to be on Game Pass.

Ahahahahahahaha

I’ve recently switched from Windows to Linux and generally I’m using Lazygit on the terminal or SourceGit on the desktop. SourceGit is by and large a very similar UI to Sourcetree but faster (and open source / cross platfrom)

The phone number requirement is a recent change I believe to deter people from creating multiple accounts, so any old timers probably didn’t have to use a phone number to sign up.

To be honest I’ve got a bunch of CDs, DVDs and game discs etc. Never stored in a shed or attic and many have rot. They tend to be particular labels, publishers or manufacturers. For example I have a few BBC audio CDs and most of those within a certain range of years have succumbed. I personally wouldn’t store these in a shed but I wouldn’t be surprised if the same thing happened under any conditions. I now use ODEs where feasible or FPGA. My game discs are mostly for looks now.

I realize this person is just playing the YouTube algorithm game with the thumbnail, but urgh. I set up a locally hosted Invidious server recently and it defaulted to a page of YouTube trending thumbnails. Holy crap, what a dystopian hellscape that was.

We have quite a few in our garden (in Scotland) although I know them as verbascums, self-seeded along with foxgloves. They can get huge. Love them.

I cant help but feel this is some sort of password reset question farming…

Anyway,
