Very first thought was “surely that’s treason”.

I must look up the legal definition.

Solaris was great until they insisted on keeping their crappy CPU for way too long before adding x86 support and lost their market share and their company.

It was a terrible gamble and they lost hard to Linux as a result.

Also making my way through them currently and thoroughly enjoying them.

There are two Lidl beans. The extra 10p for the ring pull one gets you more than just the convenience. :) Worth trying both though.

Yaaarrrrns.

That non stacking thing annoys the piss out of me haha. It’s such a small thing and it’s deliberate to make the tin look bigger but it just means they’re taking up more space in the cupboard for lack of stacking or falling over if you do.

Also not a huge Heinz fan. Like they’re not bad don’t get me wrong but definitely agree on the watery-ness.

The most popular one here is probably Bachelor’s which has a thicker, richer sauce though I’m fond enough of the Lidl own brand one. That is definitely partly down to price. They’re ridiculously cheap and very decent with a fry especially if you warm them slowly to soften them.

I thought Heinz was the gold standard in the UK. I must try the Branston ones. Flippin’ love that pickle.

Don’t think I’ve ever seen them in the supermarket in Ireland but my sister’s visiting from the UK on Sunday so I think I’ll place an order.

Cheers. You too. :)

Some benchmarks were leaked and thought you would be interested. Link.

Apparently full press embargo will be lifted on the 12th.

On paper they look really good to me. It’s only 9 days until launch of the more expensive one so maybe worth holding off for proper benchmarks if you can?

edit: Unless it’s a Christmas present I suppose!

There are about two people on here who wouldn’t say “fuck Henry Kissinger”.

What a massive load of shite. The fucking smell of boot polish off your breath is disgusting.

Jog on.

Same. Have mine about 18 months. Never once connected to the internet. Great device.

Yeah, got some upset kids here but did manage to find a correct steam

Sorry. 200k people were on that. Scum. Everyday astronaut is the one I’m watching now.

Live stream available here. Apparently launch in 40 minutes or so from this comment:

Edit: that was some dirty link sorry

I did think that. :) It’s just… So good. I hope it never enshitifies. God help us.

For the uninitiated like me:

The Kessler syndrome (also called the Kessler effect,[1][2] collisional cascading, or ablation cascade), proposed by NASA scientists Donald J. Kessler and Burton G. Cour-Palais in 1978, is a scenario in which the density of objects in low Earth orbit (LEO) due to space pollution is numerous enough that collisions between objects could cause a cascade in which each collision generates space debris that increases the likelihood of further collisions.

Just installed. Looks great. Thank you.

Well I am delighted. €13.1B + the 1.2 in interest represents what will be a bump of 16% of total tax revenue compared to 2023 (€88B total). There are lots of things that money can be used for.
