Exactly what I was thinking. Changing the name on a Tesla would work on me because I can't tell cars apart but the Cybertruck is obviously a Cybertruck. I can't think of any other car manufacturer that has ever made a car as distinctively ugly as the Cybertruck.

One of my favorite quotes is "A Republican would eat shit if they thought a liberal would have to smell their breath."

It definitely changed things for me. With end of life for win 10 coming and not liking win 11, I bought a SteamDeck to see how good Linux gaming has become. It worked so well that I decided to make the switch and put Linux on my new gaming PC.

I read your comment while a streamer just said the exact same thing. No politics on his stream because entertainment is to relax and not get stressed out.

She's saying that like the US was just shipping cash to Ukraine. I'm pretty sure all those aid packages were actually giving the money to various defense contractors to purchase and then ship the military hardware to Ukraine.

I don't remember who said it but I feel it sums up their beliefs the best.

Conservatism is the dread fear that somewhere, somehow, someone you think is your inferior is being treated as your equal.

This is real?!? When I first heard about this, I thought it was a joke.

Win 11 is the reason I finally decided to switch. My work gave us all Win 11 machines and I hate it.

Fortunately I don't do too much on my computer besides gaming so Steam can do all the heavy lifting for me

I built a new gaming PC and installed Linux on it. After years of threatening to do it, I finally followed through and made the switch.

Isn't that essentially the plot to The Langoliers?

I need you to rephrase all news to make it not so depressing.

I was trying to figure out how to install Mod Organizer 2 and ProtonVPN.

 

I ordered a mystery box from Adagio which finally came in and was surprised at what came in. I was expecting a collection of single cup samples but instead I got several of the larger bags that can make multiple cups each.

This box contained:

  • April in Paris - .8oz
  • Blueberry Peach Gobbler Green - .5oz
  • Double Ginger Herbal - .8oz
  • Lemon Meringue Green - .5oz
  • Zodiac - aries tea - Single
  • Black Jasmine Song - Single
  • Tie Kuan Yin Black - .4oz

Since they change what they put in the mystery box each month, I might just see how to setup a monthly auto-purchase.

I picked up some new teas from a shop while on vacation and this one was pretty good. I like teas with lavender in them but I find that it's sometimes overpowering. This one had the lavender taste without it overwhelming the other flavors.

Edit: I tried to upload a picture but it wouldn't let me so I used a link to the one of the pictures on the site.

I know there's a whole ethics thing revolving around the use of AI but I still find this sort of stuff to be amazing.

 

I've gone from getting tea bags at the grocery store to tea bags ordered online and just started getting loose leaf tea. I've been buying the bags and the loose tea from Stash but I was wondering where all of you get your tea.
