I totally agree. I've had my 2011 2.0 TDIe Audi A6 now for about 7 years. Never had major problems, though I specifically selected a diesel engine as the TFSI engines are crap. I also do pretty much all of.my own work so only pay for parts when something happens, which of course helps keep costs down.

If anyone is repairing or diagnosing your own vehicle in the WV group, make sure you get the VCDS software as it helps a ton! I got some cheap clone via eBay but it's worked just fine for many years for me.

I think it depends on what you mean by stunning. I personally prefer

  • The Martian
  • Interstellar
  • The original LOTR trilogy in 4K HDR, though the fellowship sure has the most beautiful scenes.

I've tried many times for a few years now to get this working. Even though I get platformio to create a compile_commands.json it still doesn't work very well. Thinks std::string is a uint_8 and so on. I've just given up on it and use VS Code to program the ESPs I work with. Use neovim for everything else.

Witcher 3. My first thought after finishing it was that "oh man, I just want to forget this and restart". Played through it about 4 times and gathered all achievements.

I was using my OnePlus 6 for about 4 years before I got a stupidly good deal on a OnePlus 9. Wasn't planning on upgrading but here we are. I felt no real reason to update as it was still performing well except the battery. I'm probably going to keep my OnePlus 9 for about as long.

Sure, this isn't the norm but my guess is more and more people are going to keep their phones longer now that the price is so damn high.

True, though on a Swedish keyboard layout it's much quicker and easier to get to in my opinion.

That's wat ctrl+a do, go to front. Ctrl+e is go to end. Use it all the time!

Me too, absolutely love it! Been working great for me the last couple of months.

It's happens sometimes but I must say, not very often. I could probably count on one hand how many times that have happened through my many years of using pihole.

I'm just about to setup TP-link cameras connected to Frigate (NVR software) with a Coral TPU for offline object detection. This means I can block access to internet for the cameras and use a VPN home if I want to watch them.

I think 4G was a lot of speed for mobile devices but I must say the speeds on 5G are quite impressive. I can get about 50-70mbit/s with 4G on my phone while 5G does 300+. Do I ever need that? No.

I think it would have been better to invest in better coverage with 4G.

Yup, totally agree. Changed my microwaving habits a few years back. 3 minutes at about 600 watts works like a charm for just about everything. Add a minute or so if you're heating soup or something else with a lot of mass/water.

I always did 2 minutes at maximum power previously and it was always like the surface of the sun on the outside and cold on the inside.
