I have a pen for a tablet PC that uses AAAA.

You should join Facebook. I looked at ONE video of a cat firing an automatic weapon on a doorstep, and for the next month my feed was full of doorbell recordings of animals with weapons.

This is a Shell station. Michelin would be for the tires.

(Joke: I know the origin of Michelin ratings.)

Ghost In The Shell (2017) with the Ki Theory soundtrack.

I love slow remixes of 80s music.

Why don’t they let the people who make the trailers make the movies!

True. Part of me still wants a Nokia N90 just because it hinted at so much functionality when I first saw it.

I have seen AI gadgets in clickbait ads.

Cool-looking cubes with lots of controls and stuff, but with meaningless symbols and “words” for labels.

It reminds me how influenced I am by advertising, that I kind of want something that doesn’t exist or have a purpose, just because it looks gadgety.

4th column top one is hover-cat, maybe?

I once heard that laser pointers are bad for cats’ mental health: the tantalizing red dot that they just cannot catch.

Best to let them see the dot “run away and escape” if they do chase one.

Where is this found? I’ve stayed in maybe 10 hotels in California this year plus plenty in previous years (and a few in other states) and never seen this.

Is it maybe a thing in small rooms (I travel with family so never book anything with less than two beds).

Oh, I should add that the plug in the 2nd pic is what keyboard connectors were back then (PS/2 connector).

This is dated 2017, so must have been through a few phone-to-phone days transfers to be on my current one.

But in my main store of files that’s synced across machines, I have this from 1999

Memes were still finding their feet back then.

“Circulatory System Walking Through The Kitchen Day” was the 10th! Is this some new holiday?

Two em-dashes and emojis. I’m just sayin.

Which came first, the chicken or the soup?

+R.

If you’d asked me, I’d have said that I always bought -R, but I guess I was different person back then.

I made some DVDs for someone recently. First I had to dig out my old laptop that has a drive. Then install authoring and burning software.

All the help forum posts that I found were at least 15 years old, I’m amazed that any of the recommended software still existed.

I found that I still had two plastic tubes of DVD+Rs!

I’ve used bookshop.org which sells ebooks and has a reader, but you can nominate a local bookstore to get part of the profit.

No, I think that those are those ring things with a hole in them.

That sounds worth investigating, thanks! Amcrest needs an account for notifications afaik, but the Pro cameras can work just on a local network.

The app for them is awful. Then they made a new version that is awful in slightly different ways, so I’m interested in new options.
