I don’t know if I’m right, but Tony Burke seems kinda based from what I’ve heard about him so far
- Comment on QWERTY Phones Are Really Trying to Make a Comeback This Year 4 days ago:
I’m intrigued by the Titan 2 Elite. Never owned a Blackberry myself (or never used one as my main rather) and I’m typing a lot on my phone so it would be an interesting experience to try the Titan. Looks quite nice as well.
I heard that Unihertz isn’t exactly the best at supporting their phones, though, and I’m not a big fan of Mediatek either. The Communicator looks good, too, but I’d rather go with a brand with a history of making phones, rather than cases.

Camping gear is too cheap apparently. It’s the same in Germany, people are just too drunk and/or tired to care.
You can probably make a good living out of returning all the bottles that are left behind, too

Why is that coffee machine showing me a picture of the Sydney Opera House instead of making coffee?

Ok. It just looks the same to me other than the forced material design cues.

Great, more worthless junk

Sure hope so

It adaptively regulates the refresh rate down to 1hz to save energy, it’s like an LTPO panel on a phone

Dell Pro is formerly Precision, I think XPS was renamed to “Max”, or was it “Premium”? I actually can’t remember

That thumbnail… AI generated background, poorly cut out picture of Albo with the crust and a squished picture of what I assume is the author of the article.
Brilliant
- Comment on Microsoft's Satya Nadella wants you to stop saying AI "slop" in 2026 2 weeks ago:
That’s a weird thing to say for him. I mean, most of the time someone says “AI Slop” it isn’t targeted at any of Microsoft’s products.
Not yet anyways

America first, unless it’s too much of a hassle

- Comment on The Trump phone just missed another release date 2 weeks ago:
I mean, it’s obviously just gonna be a rebranded budget phone by a Chinese brand like Ulefone, like that “Freedom Phone” by that crypto-fuckface, whatever his name was. I don’t know why anyone is still bothering to report on this.
- Comment on LG Electronics unveils 2026 Gram Laptop line with aerospace composite - up to 50% lighter than macbooks 2 weeks ago:
kinda fascinating how they manage to cram RTX GPUs in there, makes me wonder about the cooling. If the new models are anything like the current models they’ll even have decent I/O (minus the ethernet port grumble grumble)
If they offered an AMD version with a dedicated AMD GPU I’d even be half interested. But not really, my ThinkPad P14s is gonna serve me well for the next 10 years or so.

- Comment on Australia’s roads are full of giant cars, and everyone pays the price. What can be done? 3 weeks ago:
For real. The car I’ve seen the most in Oz was some kind of Ranger, with many even being Raptors.
Runner up would be the Toyota (GT)68, but I really don’t mind those at all.
