I had a Thinkpad T440s that had a ridiculous battery life. I think I picked I picked it up on eBay for like $300 4 or 5 years ago. I tinkered with it and ended up breaking it and didn't have time to put it back together/fixed up but that thing was a dream. I have a "desktop replacement" PC that's huge and unwieldly and I wish I just kept my T440s with an upgraded display and like 4 days of battery life.

We used Wyze cameras for years but their quality has dropped considerably in the last few. Every time you open the app they've got a new popup to remind you to buy more stuff and their app only works half the time. I wish there was something affordable I could set up and host at home without having to pay ridiculous prices for hardware and making it a second job to set up and/or maintain. Wyze was the answer there but they've been sitting uncharged at the front and back door for months now because their app just wasn't worth using.

Hey, you do you. My days of slamming things I don't like are over. Not everything's made for me and I accept that but there are definitely similartities I can draw between the two. I told my brother that I don't mind the off-the-wall goofy episodes when the What-If machine is involved but the knee-jerk transitions between actual episode and goofiness just isn't for me. Glad there's a new season and that there's an audience for episodes like that though!

I watched half way, got PTSD from season 10 and put on s1e1 and fell asleep. I've liked this season so far, being fan since literally 1999 (holy shit...) but I couldn't make it through this episode. It was Naturama all over again.

I have a Kindle paperwhite without ads, worth paying extra imo. I use Calibre to convert any books I “find” to mobis and send via email through Calibre. I’ve also done this with manga and it’s been working well. Loves me my paperwhite.
