But those giant developers have been paying labour’s bills, they need healthy return on that investment, surely. What’s a little ecocide between friends?

Fuck and indeed yeah. I don’t know how I’ve not run into them, they’re proper

I like them for the same reason I like those guys too - I’m a big fan of cars whose designer’s main weapon was the ruler. I’m also a big fan of notch-backs for some reason, which I blame on anglias

I have a few of those, but the Mokin hub suggested by u/Fubarberry above is exactly what I was after, I’m trying to get it to be as tiny as possible.

Meshtastic network is a communication system that doesn’t rely on mobile phones. Have a look at it, it’s simple, secure, cheap, and rapidly growing

Read that as “megashit console”, and thought “that’s a bit harsh, it’s actually pretty good!”

Oh, nice marmot

Now I want to know what these slang sayings are

 

Hey all. I’ve been looking for a small, basic USB-C hub with pass through power. Like literally just 4 USB-C ports, a short cable and a USB-C power in. No extra nonsense, just a minimal way to connect an SSD, a monitor, and power to my deck, and charge a peripheral if necessary. It seems unreasonably hard to find! Any suggestions?

Hello peeps. Life’s thrown me some curve-balls recently, and I’d like a bit of an escape. Can anyone recommend a decent game in the vein of Skyrim, Fallout or Deus Ex/System Shock for the steam deck, that isn’t 25 or 30 quid please? Something on offer for less than a tenner would be ideal. I’m sure there are some great older RPGs out there that I’ve missed, the Deck is the first time I’ve got back into gaming for quite a few years, and while I’m sure I could quite happily just play Brotato for the next few years, I reckon there’s something a bit more immersive out there for me to find!

Probably worth a watch, and whether you agree with him or not, being aware of the economic situation here at the moment is probably prudent

 

Hi all, I need a bit of help.

I’m looking to get further down the rabbit hole of interesting photographers, but I struggle to define what I’m after. My general misanthropy extends into photography, people are almost always the least interesting thing in the frame to me. Why would you waste film on faces, when you could be taking interesting images of some nice concrete or rusty iron?!

I love the work of Toshio Shibata, Bernd and Hilla Bescher, Bill Brandt, Danila Tkachenko, and GXAce on YouTube. The problem I have is that searching for “Urban” photographers brings up street stuff, “Architectural” ends up with folks who take pictures of whole buildings, “industrial” seems to lead to people who take photos for corporate websites, or urbexers (though some of those are verging on what I’m after). Constructed landscapes, textures, geometric shapes, and the juxtaposition of human artifice and nature, that’s my bag.

Is there a term or genre that would connect all this? Or am I just going to have to keep finding new artists one at a time?

Ta!

 

I’ve got a little stainless Coast A5, which I love, but its beam pattern is very, very much inspection torch. Dead circular, even spread.

Is there anything similar in body, but with a more every-day torch beam? I don’t really want some black knobbly military-cosplayer’s thing, I’m not too bothered about a built in charging port, I want minimal. I love the simple, smooth stainless body of the A5, it lives in my smart jacket pocket along with an elegant little pocket knife, I just wish it had a thrower-style beam.

Again, obvious link, but obscure song. Underrated band by my lights too
