Mentally preparing myself for the hit to the wallet tomorrow by previewing the special order prices on the NZ Games Workshop store and doing some math… 😅

#warhammer

Orc Shamans are living conduits to Gork and Mork, and wield great magical power, drawn not just from the Winds of Magic, but from the power of belief generated by their kin. As a result, Shamans do whatever they can to stoke the fervour of those around them by prancing, gesticulating wildly, gibbering, and chanting. The greatest of these Weirdnobs have earned the right to ride to battle atop a mighty Wyvern, a foul-smelling beast with armoured scales, powerful wings, and a venomous tail.
Trolls are hulking, dim-witted creatures, capable of adapting to nearly any environment. Stone Trolls are long-limbed brutes with rocky, cracked hides, often found wandering the slopes and passes of the Old World’s many mountain ranges. These beasts have indiscriminate appetites, and will eat anything from flesh and bone, to wood, rocks, and even scrap metal. Not surprisingly, a Troll's stomach contains potent digestive juices, which they even vomit up onto their enemies.
(More trolls!)

Any recommendations for USB-C to C charging cables over 10 feet/3 meters long? USB 2.0 speeds are fine, no video transmission needed, just want 100W of power delivery and ideally not as thick as a garden hose

Apple broke non-String AppEnum in App Intents as of macOS 14.4 / iOS 17.4, so if you have say a widget with configuration parameters where the value is an AppEnum backed by an Int, those parameters just won't work and will always use the default value. Nice! (FB13737909)

Screen recording showing the macOS desktop with a small widget showing “Time: 12:59”, “IntEnum: 1” and “String Enum: Option 3 String”. The widget configuration is opened, and the user selects in the dropdowns “Int Enum: Option 2” and “String Enum: Option 2”. After confirming the selection and going back to the widget, “Int Enum” is still showing the value “1”, and “String Enum” is showing “Option 2 String” as selected in the configuration.

Apple's antitrust conduct over the past few years has done far more damage to Apple than one employee leaking some product information leading to "at least five news articles” ever could 😛

Maybe it should sue itself?

New, by me: An alleged data breach of 73 million AT&T customer records posted online in full this week looks increasingly authentic.

The dataset, which first emerged in 2021, includes names, home addresses, phone numbers, Social Security numbers, and dates of birth.

But AT&T still hasn’t said how its customers’ data spilled online.

Watching founders and investors who pay $8/month for blue checks on X complain that they can't read a deeply reported story by one of the finest tech reporters because it's behind a paywall that costs $7/month is really fucking gross, and sadly just the latest example why media is crumbling.
