The alt text is the real winner here. “It is a whimsical rainbow tampon she is extracting from herself.” Is one of the finest combinations of words I’ve ever witnessed.

Ah yes, chemical X, the perfect combination of lead, Teflon and microplastics 💪
By stealing and selling your private data, the cycle continues!
These orbs won’t ponder themselves and there’s nothing sadder than an un-pondered orb
Yeah, but when they DO have their own shit going on, they know they can share it with you to halve their own sorrow. It’s a two-way street, amigo :)
Well, well, well, if it isn’t fat, Armenian Corey “Spazkid” Delaminguez….
“Hey Corey, Sonic the hedgehog here!”
Hot.
SUPEEER MEAT BOOOOY!
I second this, I love my Apple TV. Blazingly fast and stable and the extra features are amazing. Bought a new sound bar the other day, held my iPhone up and it perfectly configured audio latency. The TV itself had trouble communicating with the sound bar over CEC so I told the Apple TV to learn the volume controls from the sound bar remote, took 10 seconds. When I got my TV, the AppleTV used the camera on my phone to configure the picture settings for most accurate colour reproduction. Added a couple notches of saturation because it’s my personal preference, done.
It plays everything I’ve thrown at it via Plex and Jellyfin, no issues. I also have Moonlight for streaming games from my PC via NVidia game stream and Steam Link for whenever Gamestream shits the bed. Just paired up an Xbox controller to the Apple TV, job done.
Oh, and TV OS 17 just came out and added third party VPN support, so if you do have Netflix or whatever, you can change region using a VPN.
I’m not an Apple fan boy but the Apple TV just works and if you already have a modern-ish iPhone (mine’s a 12), it makes it so much better.
That sums up my experience too, but I have found it good for discussing functions for SQL and Powershell. Sometimes, it’ll throw something into its garbage code and I’ll be like “what does this do?” It’ll explain how it’s supposed to work, I’ll then work out its correct usage and solve my problem. Weirdly, it’s almost MORE helpful than if it just gave me functional code, because I have to learn how to properly use it rather than just copy/paste what it gives me.
DID I HEAR A ROCK AND STONE?!
They already are, at least here in the UK. I’ve got a bunch of Eufy tags, work great.
I’ve lost count of how many times I’ve been exhausted and later discovered I put the milk by the coffee machine and the coffee in the fridge. Same premise, slightly less terrible outcome.
Exactly, this’ll limit the exposure to them in things you wouldn’t expect them to be on/in. You can avoid Teflon pans and go iron or steel but the amount of stuff coated in PFAS is ridiculous. Hell, even sofas, rugs, blinds, etc all sorts of stuff. And before anyone says “you don’t eat that stuff”, try telling my toddlers that! I bought a black milk frothing jug for my espresso machine. The black coating? Teflon. Not mentioned anywhere, not even marketed as non-stick.
We gotta dream big there amigo, stay strong!
Part of me wonders; was this their plan all along? Everyone knows that people are having fewer kids and there’s a real problem that the old will outnumber the young and we won’t be able to support the elderly population. So, is the GOP’s plan to just force people to have kids against their will as a way to mitigate that?
Moonlight is great, not heard of Sunshine, will have to check it out! Since I had my kids, the only time I get to game is either in bed or when I’m pooping. Got an AliExpress controller that essentially turns my phone into a Switch, worked out the box with both Steam Link and Moonlight! Best shits ever.
You’re doing the lord’s work
I tried to get into Usenet but I’m old and unable to learn new tricks. I just looked at EasyNews and it’s $9.99 pm for 20GB :| so, like, a single 4K movie with Atmos. I don’t understand the allure of UseNet, perhaps because I am a dumb.
Obligatory “Rock and stone!”
Wait, is it? Like, vanilla, not Northstar? I stopped playing months ago because I’d leave it running looking for a match in the background with my speakers turned up so I could go do chores and watch TV and then run back if I heard the “joining game noise”, occasionally checking to see if matchmaking kicked me out to the menu. It was just too much hassle to get into a game.
Is all that fixed now? Can I come back? Please god, can I play TF|2 again?
Show me the champion of liiiiiiiiiight!
I do exactly this; log on occasionally to finish small things, take the occasional emergency call from a colleague to help them out, work a little past the end of my shift just to get stuff done, etc. whilst I recognise it’s bad and advise others not to do it, I do as it feels like a small sacrifice for what I get in return.
I am 100% WFH. I save 2 hours a day on commuting, plus not having to iron shirts and general office-level prep. I save money on fuel and car maintenance. I have ready access to my own food and drink and is healthier than what’s in range of my office. I get to be with my family more, help the missus with our 2 young kids when needed, do housework or play with the kids on my lunch. I can focus on my work rather than having people constantly talking to me.
All these things combined make me considerably happier and calmer, even though my job is actually incredibly stressful :D haha.
Whilst I never condone working for free, I justify it to myself as a trade; never make me come to an office ever again and I’ll chuck in the extra 10% every now and again, haha.
Sorry, I’ve just discovered from this thread that apparently Google has its own Find My! I was referring to Apple’s, sorry about that.
Mate, same! Town I used to live, I couldn’t walk from one end of town to the other without picking up a a dozen acquaintances on the way. Made it really difficult to spend quality time with my closest friends.
So, when we got older, me and my entire inner circle all got houses in a different town where nobody knew us! It’s blissful not having to stop to talk to people every 30 seconds.
Sorry, had notifications off!
Search AliExpress or Amazon for Bluetooth phone controller and the one I have is this one:
I also picked up an Ipega 9083S for my Android tablet the other day and that’s actually great. 11” 2K switch for £28 haha.
The only bad thing about Ethernet cables is that they’re shaped like a goddamn grappling hook. If I wanna pull an Ethernet cable through my desk, I must understand that every other cable in its path is coming with it.
