Life is a communicable disease, if you want to save the planet, stop spreading it.

Serious point - most things are ‘bad’ for us in one way or another. Dioxins from a fire will mostly go up (hint - stay out of the smoke) from a fire in open air, so although it’s good advice, let’s not stress over it too much. There’s…

Just spent 5 mins watching that before coming here to post!

Came here to point out the same thing..... not disappointed.

Put in enough and it’ll caramelise in the carb/injection system and give a great excuse to lounging in a hammock.. ;)

Basic rules:

No, but then I’ve never driven a Golf beyond it’s limits, I probably could if I wanted to though (on a track.... Golfs are so good I wouldn’t want to push that hard on the open road).

There’s no such thing as a boring car, only boring driving.

Came here to mention the EM-50.

Photo-reportage fail.

You can assign alerts to tasks using the GTasks app, IIRC they then appear in your calendar.  Not a perfect solution, but a start maybe?

Everything I currently get out of a petrol car.

Question - can you still move the monitor around a vertical axis? Ie can it be put at one side of the desk and then turned towards you if you sit in the middle of the desk? The video doesn’t show that.  In an office I’d generally have 2 monitors running, but I couldn’t see anything if they were both perfectly aligned…

Dang missed this - no love for trackballs?

If only they weren’t twice the price of a similarly specced (sans touchpoint) generic keyboard. I recently bought a T420 and long term I will be buying one of these matching keyboards, but it tough to justify it initially, especially as I haven’t quite got my head around the TouchPoint yet. (at least with Ubuntu I can…

I recently found Smith and Sniff on YouTube. If you like talking crap about cars with your friends, then you’ll like it - that’s what it is. 2 blokes who are into cars (both work on UK TV car shows), driving about in various cars (old and new) just bantering about the car and life in general.

I used to work with dual 32" monitors (doing web-dev) and I (personally) think that an ultrawide would have worked better. Mainly because it was awkward to set the monitors up comfortably to sit in front of.

“It’s all starting to feel sort of insecure and crazy, if we’re honest.”.

Big Mercs (and big BMWs), especially of that era, are made for one purpose: driving very comfortably, for very long distances. You can drive all day in a big merc, (eg Dusseldorf to Monaco) and arrive feeling like you’ve popped around the corner to pick up milk. I used to have a W124 120TE. Fabulous, I’d happily own…

Oh thank F***!! Logitech finally updated their trackball rather than dropping it.  My M570 works brilliantly, but I live in fear of it ever dying and not being able to find a replacement.  Thank you Logitech, thank you!

“The Rivian reps I talked to at the company’s booth could tell me exactly where the truck is slated to be manufactured, but it sounds like distribution and service is still “being worked out.”
