Thanks for your input re doom scrolling - appreciated!

Already removed reddit from my phone. Too many nights lost in there.

Agree on the 'there's nothing I can do so no point in me looking' argument but even following regular news outlets is depressing. It's of course less explicit compared to reddit, but it's still harrowing.

I'm kinda landing in @jv's comment

I am not going to look away when people have endured these atrocities.

This is too important to miss. Just have to keep it regulated

Fuck me this whole thing is dragging me down. Infinite scroll coupled with a brutal war is messing with my head. Tempted to turn off all news but it feels too important.

That consumption is pretty good for a 2.4t I think. Did a lot of research on these a few years ago and with mixed driving it seemed to struggle to get below 10l/100km

Almost bought a 2.5t but backed away when the seller tried to explain to me why his car was one of the few cars that shipped with the premium sound system but without the sub.

Heartwarming story

I've rolled my eyes and walked away from the situation until cheaper versions break and we're back in this situation again.

This is what I do, but with myself.

Would love some input on this as well. My googling ends up in buy-cheap-buy-twice so I'm thinking caldigit ts3/4 but £300+ for a f-n hub?!

Good read, thanks for linking!

That's a massive win for £150, looks great

Think I read somewhere that he’s top 3/5 or something on longest confirmed kill

Edit: googled and it was wrong. He’s still badass though.

Cause they’re LG? So many poor choices on that screen. Fantastic panel but just about everything else can be improved.

Having read up-thread I though in was in the Ukraine thread. Couldn’t really figure out why there was a backyard full of bikes in Ukraine…

Seems like it's hubtime :(

Was hoping that my LG 5k could act as a hub but apparently not. My wacom is hooked up from usb-c to apples usb-c-usb converter but it keeps cutting out. External hdd's as well.

Do I really need that Caldigit thing or can I go with something more sensible? Had a look around but there seems to be a random range of ports on most of them. Some has VGA, some has card readers, some has ethernet. I just need a few usb ports and a few usb-c, all with enough power to actually run stuff.

Interesting. Picked up a usb-c to usb converter today, hopefully it’ll power the Wacom when it’s on its own. If not it’ll be hub-time.

Thanks!

My issue is that my wacom doesn't get enough power from my monitors usb-c port via a usb hub. Maybe I need something externally powered to avoid more cables than one from my MBP?

Think these are hard to beat, even with 2nd hand prices

There was talk on here about a decent usb-c hub that wasn't the huge and spendy caldigit one, does anyone remember?

I assume it's some kind of trophy?

Does anyone know what happens to them? Gulag?

thorn proof sleeves

Wish I'd known this a few years ago when we bought our house. We a LOT of hedges and the previous owner had let them grow for 4-5 years. Took me about 5 working days to sort out and my arms looked like I had wrestled a rabid cat.

I have a desk lamp behind my main screen, pointing down. It creates enough ambient light behind the screen to help with the contrast.

Yeah sorry, bad choice of word on my side there. I didn't mean agressive as in attacking, maybe more as in 'proactive' or something along those lines

Agree with what you say

Usound yes. Evil, maybe. You can put plenty of words there, but I don't think we can write them off as nutters, that would be making it too easy for ourselves.

Isn't this a rational fear from a Russian point of view though? Not saying it's right or morally sound, but if you consider Nato the enemy and Nato keeps getting closer. Then your next-door neighbour starts working towards the idea of actually joining. I mean, hard to not see it as an agressive act.

It's easy to just write Putin and Russia off as nutters similar to Trump a few years ago, but it's of course more complicated than that.

That kinda hangs together though, esp from a Russian point of view.
