Nice try but you’re not going to out-stupid our head of state. 🫡🇺🇸🤡

Shut up, Moon Moon

You’re a low quality person.

System Shock 2 is in my top 3 games of all time.

Cut a strip of vinyl siding, cardboard, whatever, about two inches wide and eight to ten inches long. Drive a nail through it at the centerline about an inch from the end. Remove the nail. Cut a slit from the nail hole to the end down the centerline.

Now if you need to drive a nail just out of reach or hammer one in without risking your fingers, just stick a nail in the hole, set it with a few strikes, then tug to pull the strip away.

This is a recipe for a classic “frame someone for your own murder”.

Make sure you have a library card and an account in Libby/Overdrive. Ebooks galore.

What I did was buy a phone-sized e-reader (Bigme Hibreak Color), and use that in combination with some focus mode app blockers to switch my habits during the day from doomscrolling to reading ebooks. I get through so many more books now than I used to and it’s wonderful.

Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow. I’m a sucker for films that go balls to the wall on a style.

Beautiful.

Dammit I just realized I should have done Guardians of Dick Galaxy instead.

The color is a trade-off. It looks more or less like newsprint: a little faded, but still capable of some lively imagery. It also means that black and white pages aren’t as high-contrast. The “white” parts (that are really never fully white on any e-paper display) are a little less white, meaning it’s not as sharp and you’re more likely to need to turn on the backlight or to turn it up a couple percent.

I’m not too bothered by the trade-offs, and I like it when I can see things in color. It lasts ages even with the backlight on low, so that’s not a major problem. It also includes pen support and USB-C, so all in all I’m perfectly happy with it.

This one is my second but the first one is still working fine many years later. I just wanted color.

Seconding their enthusiasm. I love my Kobo Libra Color.

I call fake. This implies awareness of scientific and logical principles.

I think they’re pretty much all paired with a phone for a lot of the workload.

I’m curious enough about Brilliant Halo to have preordered one, but my expectations are tempered. It’s a lot like what you described.
