I've found that having a space for reading helps. I used to devour books as a child, but when I moved homes my rate of reading went down by a bit, then after a few room remodellings it has dropped to near zero. Most of my reading is done on a computer, not a book or an ereader.

Are you in the USA? Black Friday would be one such day. Amazon Prime Days might be good too. I recall some of the holidays there can have good sales, I have a vague memory of picking up pretty cheap CF cards off Amazon US during either 4th July or Labour Day or some US holiday.

Yea, I don't think the Chinese are as bad as them!

Feels like being a patient gamer wins again. Will pick this up at some point.

You know, I was thinking that the vans having more capacity and greater speed would mean they're hard to replace. But then I also just remembered that our local postal service does use bicycles and small scooters for their last mile deliveries. I can't remember what my postman uses though. XD

The freelancers who do deliveries for the ecommerce sites however, are likely to be sticking to vans or bigger vehicles, since having that capacity and speed is the only way to get a living wage out of what they do.

Completely? No. Practically? Yes, as your photo shows. It's good enough for 95+% of the population. There's a reason why the camera industry went from 100m units annually to like 8-10 million units.

Is there an environmental cost to the tags? Just wondering. It'll be most useful for things like supermarket checkouts, but the hassle of applying tags to FMCG products sounds like an absolute nightmare in labour.

Uniqlo here already does that, it's quite magical when it happens.

I don't really like Nintendo's stuff that much, but really, that would be a bad outcome for the gaming industry as a whole.

SR60 probably is the better headphone, for simple economics: All of the headphone's budget goes towards the audio part, whereas on a BT headphone compromises must be made to account for the electronics.

You want a tactile switch, likely something with a bigger tactile bump to mimic those switches. Maybe a low profile one to also mimic to lower travel on the scissor switches.

Curious, wouldn't waterproofing be an issue? Or is this on the indoor side of the garage?

Curious, how'll you draw the line at what is vintage but still available in the secondary market? There'll definitely be some people pushing the envelope on this.
