- Comment on Should we allow job-sharing in parliament? 3 weeks ago:
I’m all for it to allow more diverse representation, but I also think Twomey is on the money that this will need to go through a referendum to allow the constitution to be modified.

Thanks for sharing! That sawtooth pattern on the memory graph is pretty crazy, it’s leaking like a sieve.
How are you going for server costs? Shout out if you need more donations, I think many of us have realised this is a viable platform for the long-term.
- Comment on The Fallout show's been a pleasant surprise 4 weeks ago:
If you enjoyed Twisted Metal, you will enjoy Fallout. Both are excellent TV adaptations of their respective games, and have a thick layer of dark humour underpinning the action. Twisted Metal was particularly surprising, I want to shake the hand of whoever was looking at that crusty old PS2 game and saw dollar signs for TV!
- Comment on Magnets are switching up the keyboard game with an additional keystroke setting 5 weeks ago:
I feel like you could totally change the switch resistance with magnets. Electromagnetism goes both ways… apply a variable current to a coil in each key that repels it from or pulls it towards the base?
- Comment on It’s time for a hard reset on notifications 1 month ago:
AliExpress is the worst at this. Which category should I disable? AliExpress, aliexpress, Chat or message push? And even if I figured it out, there’s no way to stop store spammers from sending you useless messages constantly, detracting from actual sellers with questions.
- Comment on Activision Blizzard’s ex-CEO Bobby Kotick reportedly wants to buy TikTok 2 months ago:
It might stop the heat though if he’s a US puppet to appease congress.
- Comment on You didn't bought it you rented it! 9 months ago:
I’m not across the market sadly as I’m rocking an old Samsung colour laser that’s no longer available. In 15 years I’ve changed the toner cartridges once. It’s USB only, but a Raspberry Pi running CUPS converted it to a network printer.
My advice would be to go second hand on older laser printers. I just use my phone to scan documents these days.

I have absolutely no idea why anyone buys inkjet printers or cartridge razors. There are perfectly good alternatives that don’t try and force you into a subscription model.
