My password logbook caught on fire, and half my passwords were burnt. I lost the other half when I threw a bucket of water on it to put the fire out. 😟

- Comment on Scott Morrison to testify before US House panel on China 4 days ago:
The Libs were also responsible for cutting funding to our Oceania and close Pacific friends for years, resulting in trashing Australia’s reputation and opening the door for China to rapidly expand their influence in the region.
It was only when most of the damage was done that they reversed course.

The stupid attempt to have everyone leave bluetooth always on pisses me off. They’ve made the BT quick tile 2 more presses to toggle on or off is ridiculous. It’s not a quick tile.
I’ve just put a BT on/off widget on my home screen.

recharging AAs too slow.
If you have spares to swap in, then it doesn’t matter how long it takes to charge.
(Which would be 2 hours if you charge at 0.5C)

- Comment on Eight sunscreens that failed their SPF claims tested by same overseas lab 2 weeks ago:
Good job, ABC!
The default response from companies who tested under their claims was that they had independent results and they called into question Choice’s testing methodology.
The ABC finally asked and investigated one of the obvious follow ups.
- Comment on Calls for Australia-wide crackdown on real estate ads that use AI to hide faults and lure in renters 3 weeks ago:
I always assumed stickers were there for marketing/branding purposes.
It always made me laugh because:
a) I coudn’t tell you the name of any of those brands, so that doesn’t work.
b) I buy whatever fruit is at the shop. I can’t go searching for XYZ brand of apples lol - Comment on Fairphone announces the €599 Fairphone 6, with a 6.31" 120Hz LTPO OLED display, a Snapdragon 7s Gen 3 chip, and enhanced modularity with 12 swappable parts 3 weeks ago:
Can you show an example of one?
Because my experience was that most ROMs were based on AOSP/ LineageOS , which supports very few Samsung phones.
And even of those, some didn’t support VoLTE/VoWiFi which made them useless in any geos that didn’t have 3G for calling.

- Comment on I disappeared off TV screens seeking a different life. Here's what I found 4 weeks ago:
I have mixed feelings about this.
There is probably a lot of truth to what Stan says, and perhaps a lot of wisdom in the quotes he has chosen.
But most people simply cannot devote the time to contemplate such matters. They’re spending all they’re time simply trying to battle the lower rungs of Maslow’s hierarchy
Anyways, I’m glad Stan seems to be finding some peace.

Well, if they want access to my power and data, before I would even consider it, I would have to charge a fee.
