Thank you. I see now that the price isn't very different - it wasn't obvious since I see the store in AUD :)

Aha thank you for remembering me!

...I really don't understand the Clarity Kit, can I not do dev things without it?

Anyway, I might even have spare time at the end of 2025 to build with it πŸ™ƒ

nothing about AWS or GCP is dissuading me that the best way to serve HTTPS is via Cloudflare tunnels to a machine

Apple repositioning its design language around a product that (rounded down) no one uses (visionOS) is a bold move.

Feels like the Meta thing again, except Apple's core product is actually useful.

Welcome Perth to being the second city in Australia with a train connection outside the city core.

(Brisbane closed Tennyson in 2011, Melbourne shut down the Inner Circle in 1981).

Yes this is niche train content.

Are there actually Switch 2 shortages in practice?

Or something something economy and/or Australia just got boatloads of them?

I'm sad `try` as a keyword didn't get off the ground.

It felt the simplest. Restrict its usage to all but a few clear cases.

I'm surprisingly OK with running Chromium on my Linux box and literally having the TRMNL just fetch a png every few seconds - reckon that would work?

probably a bit extreme though!

Honestly maybe getting two would solve the small space problem also
