Just be wary of the dog.

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

🤔

Denmark is a bit different though. They’ve cracked down on all flavours except menthol and tobacco, and they’ve taxed it similar to cigarettes. The UK is only banning disposable vapes.

Thanks! Yeah, I honestly don’t hold it against anyone for not understanding or appreciating ADHD. I don’t understand it myself most of the time. And before a psychiatrist told me I had it, I didn’t realize how it totally and completely ruled some parts of my life.

Some of the batteries in that bucket must be 10+ years old. The bucket has even moved house with me. Definitely a fire hazard. I go and get groceries every other day, but in 10 years I’ve never remembered to take them. And even when I do remember, I go “I’ll do it next time”!

Let my ADHD ass introduce you to my bucket of used batteries, and my giant bag of “soft plastics”, both of which require a trip to the store (5 minute walk away) to recycle.

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

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.

Try doing it in real time and then talk to me about it.

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.
