Nintendo released a survey asking for feedback on physical and digital games.

This is definitely the chance to make your voice heard about Switch 2 Game Key Cards.

This was an unexpected crossover. #mosburger #misterdonut

Doesn't seem like they are doing anything unique though...just a burger and donut store together.

Some free plants in the garden this year. Watermelon from seeds of a melon we ate, 2 cucumber plants that just popped out from the dirt (likely from compost) and some basil from last year's seed crop.

One of my Seattle friends mentioned this. If you happen to be into climbing too. Apparently his climbing gym is doing a MtG meetup.

If I still lived in the area I'd totally invite you to the bi-weekly board/video game hangout I used to host. Alas I moved and now suffer from the exact same issue as you. I still have friends in Seattle. But none in my local region ๐Ÿ˜ญ

My youngest and I finished the new puzzle this morning.

Yeah, I can sympathize with that. It's hard to easily feel away from the city. I've found a nice hiking spot about an hour away around Tsukuba that usually isn't busy at all.

Happy with the move? Miss anything from Nagano?

Or if anyone just has experience with the Proton Family plan in general, or just leaving Google Workspace in general too.

14.06.2025 08:50 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 0    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 0    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

curious if anyone here has made the jump from Google Workspace to Proton Family plan? I'm interested in doing that, but would love to hear anyone's experience if they've already done it. #protonmail #protonfamily #googleworkspace

You don't look that thrilled about it ๐Ÿ˜‚

When the titles differ I usually find them underwhelming.

Oh I also rearranged them,so the Pi5 is up top so it can get more fresh air.

My Pi5 has been running quite hot since I got it, like 75C. Decided to put an active cooler on it. Has brought it down to a nice and stable 48C or so. Fan is surprisingly quiet, I can't hear it over my laptop fan... Added some heat sinks to my Pi4b that came with my little enclosure too ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™‚๏ธ

Onions planted last September. Had a decent harvest this year, excited to eat some home grown onions!

I love this view in the morning when there are due drops on the bush and the sun is nice and orange with mixed clouds.

Can't imagine relying on that laggy mouse for anything game-wise.

Definitely enjoying Mario Kart World with the kids. Solid game with some nice updates to the formula, but still very much Mario Kart.

I definitely like the new controllers more than the S1 controllers.

The mouse feature seems quite hokey though. The mouse is super floaty/laggy for me.

Finally feels real. Guess it'll be here tomorrow. Kids are definitely going to be excited, and I foresee a bit of mariokart world tomorrow evening. #switch2

You could try Obsidian maybe. I've been using it for notes, and it looks like it has some similar functionality available (never used Pocket though).

If you're looking for a proper cheese flavored snack in Japan and can find these, they are hands down the best I've found so far.

It's pretty good, they carry it at a local import store around me and I get one every once in a while. Wish they'd get some cherry Pepsi though!
