Fluba

Hopefully the invite came through for you.

Very much appreciated! I’ll send it to the next person in the thread. Is the invite just an item in my Steam inventory? Or something within the game itself?

Thanks!

If your offer is still on the table, I’d be up for an invite. I will also pass one on if received:

I’m at a non-profit and we work 9-5 with, technically, a 30 minute lunch break. So when we take a PTO day, it is 7.5 hours instead of 8. I’m remote though, so I just work through lunch or take that time to cook something.

I thought, “New Caledonia, I wonder how close to the French coast it is…” It’s closer to Australia and no where near France. That island should have had it’s independence long ago.

I got the newer Lenovo M9 and it’s great for the price. It can stutter at times, but comics, books, and stremio - no problems.

I keep a daily journal whenever I go on vacations (especially trips abroad). While I do take photos throughout the trips, I’m not taking them constantly. So lots of little fun/interesting experiences pop up that aren’t captured.

My memory isn’t the best either, so when I think back on trips I tend to remember the big things versus the little ones. Journaling at the end of the day or in the morning helps me remember the little things. Also, what I was thinking throughout it all. Like being stranded in Rottenburg ob der Tauber after my train was cancelled. Or when a little dog in the park did a front foot handstand and peed backwards. I couldn’t get my phone out in time, but I wrote that down ASAP.

Maybe comic book stores look really similar, but that reminds me of Graham Crackers in the Chicago loop.

As much as I love Castle, I hated the “I need to do this myself to save you” mentality. Took like three different versions until the last couple episodes and “ok let’s work together”. Then I think writer strike or maybe actor discrepancies and it ended in such a flat way.

I went with a Cotopaxi 35L for my solo travels. It’s been amazing! I highly recommend.

Framework FTW

Great write up! Definitely filled in the info I only know a little about.

Yup. Usually the device being charged can scale down the power throughput so it’s not getting 60W+ if it’s not able to handle it.

Agreed. For such a cheap price, I think it hits a good spot.I regret a little not getting their gaming tablet - I didn’t know it even existed during my research. Better specs in a similar form factor. But it wasn’t enough regret to return or anything.

Oh the Android apps part is great. Best of both worlds kind of thing. Have you tried anything with Linux programs that can be loaded onto it as well? (Or maybe that’s only some ChromeOS products)

I got a Lenovo M9 a couple months ago. It’s not a powerhouse, but for streaming services/playing local video files it’s amazing. Add in reading books and comics, it’s a damn steal. Battery life is good, small size, and the folio cover is perfect for taking around the house. $150 without the cover is a great deal. I definitely recommend the folio case too. It slated for Android 13 this quarter as well.

I spent way too much time yesterday playing Blackice. It’s a FPS game in a tron-like world. Graphics are in line with the colors and blocky edges. It’s not a super deep game, but it’s really cool when all the colors are splashing around and monster/programs are everywhere. It’s an indie built by I think just 2 guys. Plenty to explore, unique items and modifiers.

I’ve owen it for a bit, but noticed there were a few updates so I installed it again.

Also, Division 2 and Battlebit. There’s a trend.

Here’s another GUI tool that I used to migrate to my current instance. Kudos to both devs!

This is the same format of “source” my buddy would show me when he rambled on about COVID conspiracies. Or flat earth stuff. His source was always someone putting random images and text snippets together instead of a legit news/research source. We no longer talk about stuff and stick to literally nothing controversial.
