last i looked at them (some time ago now) they either:

  • had very out of date hardware
  • were incredibly expensive for what they offered
  • the only middle ground model that seemed fitting for my purposes (gaming wouldn't be on that list but linux indeed) was nowhere to be found.

i should probably have a look at their models again in the near future, thanks for reminding me. are you happy with yours (and willing to share which model you use)

  1. remember netbooks? yeah so i would love a 10"-ish laptop (with current hardware) for taking notes etc.

why not use a tablet you might ask? i love the handling of a solid, non-detachable keyboard.

  1. also a smartphone that reacts quickly to user input with an OS that doesn't look like the love child of windows mobile (remember that?) and the first iphones. looking at you iOS18 settings menu (among others)

i was gonna say the knife-fork because all of the others might be usable if one only filled one container but i expect the champaign ~~glasses glas glasses~~ glas would tipp over if only ~~one off them half off them~~ only one off the glass containers would be filled so that means that the cursed glass ware needs to go

not moving

(advice for falling asleep if you are not tired coming from someone who worked rotating shifts for a decade) like this is not a joke but nothing helps me fall asleep faster than not moving as soon as i lie down.

"oh i can't fall asleep, i rotate onto my other side" no!

"oh i know turning on my belly might help" no!

"oh i know…" just stop it.

stay put, try to calm your thoughts but do - not - move - any - limps - at - all! no little arm movement, no turning around and very soon that little tingly feel will start to appear letting you know that you'll soon be fast asleep.

lol i wondered why i looked so wrong but couldn't put my finger on it. truthfully though: "tee" would be the proper spelling in my native language and i haven't had a cup of tea yet so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

do you mind me asking about the amount of tea you have used as well as the time you let it sit for? most black tea like darjeeling and blends of breakfast teas taste very similar if brewed too strong (i.e. too much tea or too much time). i like to use about a tee spoon full of tea for a mug size and let it sit for about 3-4min max.
