Yeah, I'm fine with touchscreen for infotainment and navigation shit - as long as they give me a physical volume knob. HVAC and lighting and such should all be physical switches/buttons/knobs.

I’m using the Google news webpage, without fail it shows me horoscopes and sports every day no matter how many times I tell it that I’m not interested.

I wish they’d let me block entire topics, though. I don’t ever want a horoscope but it puts that shit in front of me every single day.

Was about to comment the same thing.

Your post inspired me to pull my old PS3 Slim off the shelf and give it a shot. Fortunately it is one of the ones capable of custom firmware. I successfully jailbroke it and am now running custom firmware, next I just have to figure out how to do anything useful with it, lol.

I just replaced a drive today that has been running 24/7 for the last 5.18 years. It hadn’t failed yet but was in a predictive failure state due to the amount of bad sectors it has accumulated. 3 other disks in the same giant raid array are showing some bad sectors but not enough to be over the ‘replace me now’ threshold.

They costed less back when the competition was the IBM PC, which cost as much as a car back in the 80s. Hasn't been true for decades now.

Yeah, places with lots of sunshine are more likely to do stuff like this. I recently visited Tucson, AZ, and the amount of solar panel coverage all over the place was very impressive. Both rooftops and parking lots.

As a shit golfer - yes, a sleeve of golfballs is always welcome. I'll lose them soon enough and always need more.

Big cult compound vibes,

I think the ones in that lot were sitting there waiting for recall work to be done before they could be delivered to ~~suckers~~ customers.
