Good turkish delight is heavenly. Bad turkish delight is abysmal.

Every time I look at the hive guards after killing them, I think how delicious they look.

I want to eat the hive guards. For democracy.

Yeah, always gotta check price history. Especially on Aliexpress.

Was looking at buying a particular retro game emulator handheld. Black friday pricing was the same as non-black-friday pricing, but it was “discounted” from $300, which it has never actually been sold at. Still bit the bullet and bought it because it did end up decently cheaper using one of their “spend $x and get $y off” coupons.

I have one.

I have only ever used the Samsung store to install a single official customisation app that I used once and never again.

As far as I’m concerned it only exists to occasionally annoy me with notifications about apps with updates that I installed from other stores.

Nice to see news from Thailand that isn’t about their shitty royals.

Is a funny joke, but Yoda speaks in a consistent OSV as opposed to SVO used in English. 🤓

I run Linux on an old gaming PC that I use as a file server / jellyfin server / homeassistant / probably a bunch more I’m forgetting, and that one rarely goes above 50W, lol. Haven’t tested it under full load, though.

Can’t speak for the most modern ones which I know are worse, but I was pretty surprised when I recently got a smart plug with power monitoring recently to find that my system with a 3080 (though, undervolted slightly), 16-core cpu, way too many peripherals, eight various drives, several small screens and dual monitors, only pulls 600-650W under full load.

I got the plugs to help me choose an appropriate UPS, and I don’t need one as powerful as I’d thought I would.

Boiled?! I’m not made of money.

When I was last in Japan, I basically lived out of konbinis. I mean, I also ate at restaurants all the time because it was so cheap compared to Australia, but for everything else, why bother cooking in my tiny-ass apartment when I can walk a few minutes and get a full, fresh meal AND some decent sake for less than a single dinner back home? They’re fantastic. Plus they all had ATMs that could use to get more cash out.

Also, when my flight home was delayed by a typhoon, I was able to eat full meals for a few days on just thirty bucks from the konbinis in the airport. No price gouging. Back home that would have gotten me a shitty sandwich at best.

Yeah, but most of the lactose intolerant people I know constantly forget to take them, lol.

I have never met a lactose intolerant person that didnt, upon mentioning it when they inevitably buy something full of lactose, look me dead in the eye and confirm their terrible intolerance before going into a frightening lactose-consuming frenzy that chilled me to my very core.

They know the price they must pay. They laugh at death and spit in the face of genetics. A grim, dangerous people, the lactose intolerant.

I was going to make a comment about the 1998 battlezone game, but I looked it up and it’s actually soviet moonbases, which makes more sense, really.

A millennial, I think.

Wine is just brandy that isn’t finished yet.

No wonder it took so long, must’ve been a nightmare to get every different app neutral, what with their differing weights.
