Yes. That’s what I am doing. I just told you I haven’t bought disposables in years.

That’s what I heard, but it’s a 2 hour trip for me to get to IKEA.

I have. But that isn’t what you said. You said parents aren’t using rechargeable batteries in their kids toys. And I am. I haven’t bought a disposable battery in years.

I think you’re an abrasive person. That’s all.

Maybe the US does, but I don’t live there.

The existing dishwasher is built into the cabinetry. As I’m neither plumber nor cabinetmaker, I’m not going to do this on my own.

The house we bought a few years ago had a dishwasher. It doesn’t work.

We’d like to replace it but we asked the shop guys if they can help with that they told us they don’t have any local contacts who do dishwasher installs.

We’ve never used one before, but with two little kids it feels like hand washing is getting a bit much sometimes.

I was disappointed too. I have a handful of eneloops I use with my Steam Controllers, that last me a few months each charge.

For my partners Switch, we have 3 wireless controllers with rechargeable AAs as well. Meanwhile the Switch Pro Controller is dead as shit.

I get it, people want blocks of lithium around their house. But if you’re used to how good eneloops are this is a huge disappointment.

I absolutely am doing that. I don’t think it’s dumb.

I remember it being a pretty common thing in the 2000s, people getting compared to hitler to show how much someone hated them.

I like Yuta’s take on it. Their original mission statement was something like “AEW roster has become a bunch of clowns, we’re here to make it better or weed them out” basically.

Because we’re only getting 3 hours of sun on our solar panels amirite? 😔

When we got our first computer it was a Win 95 machine, with a copy of Encarta, Atlas. I don’t remember what word processor, but it wasn’t a full office suite.

It was cool. We did lots of typing and using ms paint.

Then we got a shareware cd. Hundreds of pretty useless games + 4 or 5 big ones like doom and transport tycoon, but it changed everything. Every day we’d try a new one. We’d mess around in DOS trying to get those ones working.

Then 3D Movie Maker - the full version. It all really started to come alive.

Then a microphone. Just messing around with sound recorder was like when we used to make “funny” tape recordings of ourselves, but without the hassle of tape.

These are the basic concepts of what I think made computers fun.

I guess the direction I’ll probably go shortly is the old AMD 2400g mini itx I have laying around. Put on an opensuse slowroll. We have a microphone handy. We have 900 games on our GOG account. I have an old intuos drawing tablet that might work. Add some of those education flatpaks - solariums and stuff. I think you can definitely do a modern version of what we had back in the 90s when computing was more than watching youtube.

Great song. Much about this album was over-blown, but this and 1979 go down as all time classics.

Yeah, I’ve tried to make a smash burger by squishing down a pre-formed patty. It doesn’t bring the magic in the same way.

No they weren’t. Infectious diseases resulted in life expectancies 40-50 years lower than now. Dying at 35 years old is not “perfectly fine”.

Does the top screen crop to the same size as the lower screen?

I would have thought these are finally a decent solution for playing games like Contra 4 and Sonic Rush, that need to seamlessly go between two screens. But if the two images don’t line up then it won’t be so nice.

As soon as I saw the headline I could already hear Tim Freedman’s voice.

Black lung isn’t from smoking, it’s an occupational illness related to coal mining.

This (Disks) is exactly what I’d suggest for a newbie too. Just noting it’s not gparted, it’s gnome-disk-utility.

Well that sucks
