Stupid sexy transistors

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.

DRAGON QUEST III HD-2D Remake $59.99

Ahahahahahahaha

Can’t say that heat loss is a big issue with my 10+ year old Aeropress. Still going strong. Although to be honest my £65 FB Marketplace Gaggia Baby gets way more use. 150 bucks sounds a bit steep for what it is.

Given that this person is being prosecuted for holding up this billboard in public, perhaps the newspaper is erring on the side of caution by not reprinting it!

This is reprehensible, and it’s absolutely right that she is held to account. However, at the same time there are a metric shit ton of politicians in the UK who regularly incite racial hatred for the express purpose of winning votes. Not to mention newspapers. When are we going to deal with them?

This data is not beautiful.

Username checks out

It’s a great portrayal, but the later episodes when he was quite ill are hard to watch. He is still fantastic, but clearly struggling with his illness and the side effects of medication. Of course, by all accounts he smoked ferociously, but still.

This data is not beautiful. It’s is confusing. Data is confusing.

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.
