I bought a cheap low power minipc. Don’t know the numbers but having a 10yo desktop powered 27/7 can’t be that great for your power consumption.

The one I bought is an Intel Alder Lake N100 Quad Core up to 3.4GHZ, 16GB DDR5 512GB for €160.

Have my eye on this for years. But it costs more then €60 in Europe if you add shipping. That is just insane.

Love my little Anbernic RG35xx with GarlicOS! You can have an (almost) complete library of all games from NES to PS1 on a 128GB card. Total price I paid including upgraded 128GB card was like €50.

I just bought a second one that can also mop. My old one is now used upstairs.

Awesome. I also waited a while for mine. I have 5 cameras. The coral is widely available now, but instead of €65 for the usb version I paid almost double. Still cheaper then a graphics card that would do the same.

What about which fleshlight is best?

Doesn’t frigate need a lot of processing power? I bought a minipc (€160) with a Google coral (€110) for AI image processing. My synology just couldn’t handle it. I run all my docker containers on that minipc now. Also Home Assistant, mqtt, zigbee2mqtt, frigate. Some other that I like are immich and vaultwarden.

I definitely read this as your first daughter being pregnant and you becoming a grandparent.

The big difference with Europe. I live in Belgium and I can visit 4 countries that are less then a 2 hour drive.

I’ve never been outside of Europe though… So I guess I have to compare it with that.

Zeisner curry ketchup is the best though! Don’t know if you can buy it in the Netherlands.

I’m definitely trying the frikandelbroodje next time I’m at Albert Heijn. Don’t know if the Belgian one has all the same products.

Explain salvaged vehicles to me pls.

TIL about searx.

You came late to the modding scene then. I bought mine secondhand so I had a PSP with firmware 1.52 that could be modded. Since the newer 2.0 firmware was still unhackable. (soon after you could mod version 2.0 with a gta savegame hack)

So many good memories. I really loved the PSP modding scene.

How much do you pay for electricity and how much for internet and what speeds?

Do you have more info? Where do you nude hike? Isn’t that illegal or something?

When you say “jif”. You don’t pronounce a “g”. So technically it is correct?

Or in gif

Those are some really bad reasons tbh. A digital shared shopping list is the best invention btw. My wife adds stuff in it and I see it on my phone when I go shopping. Who the fuck is going to snatch a phone out of your hand when you shop? And isn’t a phone a pretty useless item to steal anyway? Most of them can’t be wiped these days.

I bought a lifetime subscription for the Android app Cerberus. The dev suddenly decided to cancel all lifetime subscriptions and force people to get real subscriptions instead.

Sorry, but I fail to understand why you would not just buy a RG35xx of something similar? The purple transparent RG35xx looks so much like this GBC. But with a much better display, battery, you can play everything from NES to PSX on it, etc… Not to mention that is much cheaper! I like retro gaming, but I guess I’m not a purist like some. I prefer to play my retro games with the luxury of savestates and a better display.
