Kinda cool that I can go back through 21 years of purchases on @scorptec.bsky.social (PC hardware retailer). First purchase was a Netgear ADSL router/modem. So I was still on dial-up when I made the order. Wild.

Yeah Trustpilot is an outlet for grumpy bogans.

I've got most, and hopefully eventually all of my smart devices and or associated hubs in a VLAN with no internet and control them with Home Assistant. That said I've spent an absurd amount of time setting all that stuff up.

My 10 year old QNAP NAS with a dual core 2.4ghz Celeron is running Overseerr, Sonarr, Radarr, Plex, Mosquito, Matter, Home Assistant, Frigate recording 2 cameras and a Minecraft server. Pretty impressive really. Current drives in there are 6 years old and just waiting for the day that one fails.

The hume freeway at dusk and dawn is genuinely bonkers.

If you go the fast way along the Hume (~10hrs), country towns with interestingish monuments.

If you go the long way, closer to the coast, there is more to see and do, but tough to fit into a single weekend.

I will say if you like weird quirks of a different country the fast way can still be fun

Kids just don't play outside with nature like they use to.

Nothing like executives attempting to escape enterprise bloatware with ever more expensive hardware that does essentially nothing.

Pre kids I was horrified by even the thought of shit and vomit and everything in between. To a point where I was concerned with how I'd go with it when we had kids

As soon as 1st was born, doesn't even register. Spewed and shat on more times than I can count and the only concern is that they're ok

Jesus they look like a bunch of 12 year old COD players with base level cosmetic unlocks.

Been ignoring private/unknown numbers for a solid 20 years and I can't think of an occasion where it would have been important.

Obviously if I'm expecting or there is the potential for a call I will answer (e.g applying for jobs, kids at daycare etc). But outside of that it's always spam.

It's both not surprising in the slightest but also still a little bit surprising how quickly big corporations line up to kiss the ring.

We all know that the Ass Creed story was going to eventually go modern but they bailed on that and named the game Watch Dogs.

Nothing quite upends a household like gastroenteritis. This has been one of the more horrible weeks in recent memory and I didn't even catch it (yet).

Jesus man, Cars 2 gets pretty dark. They literally torture a car to death in it.

70s and 80s golden books really don't mess around. Always gotta be ready to ad lib when reading these things to my kids.

It's so wild that this game has made it through so many second chances that would topple most games, only for it to be destroyed by a doofus owner in a hat. Yeesh.
