Close-up view of a circuit board with electronic components and LEDs illuminated in blue and green. It’s the backside of the keyboard as seen through the acrylic case. The undersides of mounted keys glow in red, blue and purple.

It's clear that the only way to escape intrusive and constant advertising is to completely isolate yourself from society.

There's a moment when all old things
Become new again
But that moment might have been here and gone
All I have and all I know
Is this dream of you
Which keeps me living on

@CTD I still like the 3DS... I have mine on my desk at the moment. It's a great console.

@CTD I have the original Aqua 3DS model... I got it just before the price reduction, so got the ambassador game pack :) - That's all boxed up now.

Then I got the Ambassador New 3DS which is the one on my desk.

I also have a light blue DS Lite too.

@CTD Nice! Do they still play them much? My son has a 2DS, which he takes with him on trips etc. But he spends more time on the Switch.

I never had an XL... probably the best size to have for most people.

Oh yes, the Gameboy Micro... It's not so much an eye problem for me, but hand-cramps lol... especially on Mario Kart 😅

@andycarolan@social.lol avatar

@CTD Interesting about Advance Wars 2. I was tempted by the recent Switch remaster, but instead spent my allowance (lol) on Super Mario RPG. No regrets at all!

Helldivers 2 is pretty huge isn't it... I know loads of people who are playing it!

The MG4 lane keep assist is scary shit. On the highway in the rain, and on narrow country roads it kept beeping and trying to steer me off the road. It can't be disabled, because it turns itself back on when you start the car. Apparently that's how it gets its 5 star safety rating.

@ash I think if I had a car that deliberately tried to steer itself off the road, I would be returning it! 😬

In case anyone isn't aware why Thomas is flouncing off:

He clearly needs a break. That wasn't cool.

@sarajw Whoa... I just read the toot you quoted 😲

andycarolan,

@sarajw And what surprised me even more is that they didn't back down 🤦‍♂️

🥸 We rode on a car for close to three hours. Shot the thing. Drove back down. There are no photos except the ones from the assignment. Not a single one.

Also, I now have a cold.

andycarolan,
@andycarolan@social.lol avatar

@maique That sounds like a sub-optimal experience 😔

andycarolan,
@andycarolan@social.lol avatar

@maique Sounds like that should make things a bit easier then! Hope the rest goes well!

andycarolan,
@andycarolan@social.lol avatar

@maique Sending positive vibes and well wishes for the next couple of weeks then! :)

I had the bright idea of putting peanut butter on a wrap, adding strawberry jam and microwaving it for 15 seconds, spreading it, and rolling it into a tube.

You really don't want to see the mess it made when I bit into it 😅

Today was my first official pay-day as a full-time employee instead of a contractor that I've been for over 8 1/2 years.

It's so nice to get a real paycheck with taxes taken out, benefits taken out and all of that.

Sucks that the government takes so much damn money, but it's going to be much nicer come tax time when I have to file!

Seriously, if you are as tired of AI as I am, then grab my little badges for your site. They are in the usual flavour of 88x31px PNG, and also SVG so you can scale the blurriness away.

They are FREE... however, I am grateful for any size of donation if you are able.

I've got more “No AI!" stuff coming soon to my shop asap that you can 'stick' all over the place https://ko-fi.com/s/4662b19f61

Why does Apple keep making the iPad thinner when all we want is to run OSX on the thing!?

andycarolan,
@andycarolan@social.lol avatar

@habibcham ROFL, oh yes... great point about the calculator... I had forgotten about that.

I mean, even the damn watch has a calculator... but not the iPad 😅

I just made a giant batch of chilli purely to use all the tins of beans, and fridge veggies... but I had no Kidney Beans just Cannellini Beans, so is it even a chilli any more?

andycarolan,
@andycarolan@social.lol avatar

@tom_streeter That's interesting! I imagine there's lots of different takes on Chilli around! @Jbasoo

If you had just caught a shiny (normal) Rattata, would you evolve it into a Raticate? 🤔

Would it be dumb to buy/ask for an iPad Mini right now? 🤔 I’ve been thinking about adding it to my birthday wishlist.
