@erkhyan I think I'll pass on learning to fly helicopters

@derwellensittich 1 is filler for a beanbag chair, 2 is popcorn

@derwellensittich well, 2 is a lime, 3 is steel wool or sth, 4 might be a flag? possibly the Spezi one on our table

@thunfisch I did the same thing

@ludd web servers really don't make for good plug-and-play appliances, for example you have to set up stuff so it can work with whatever your Internet connection is, but also you really don't need a lot of hardware either

@erkhyan fun fact I learnt and didn't fact check: if you fly a helicopter wrong enough you can cut off its own tail

NewPipe kinda sucks on Android TV bc it's just a tablet app but at least it can stream media.ccc.de with no issues

@ludd uh, I run my web server on my ugreen nas but I certainly don't use their software, though I think theirs can do docker now too

It's not for me but I know some people will be all over this. Ridiculously good price too, with a big battery

is it cool new device friday or something https://clicksphone.com/en/communicator

@hellomiakoda luckily they also lose money when you don't use it

Core Devices dropping the most useless and the most perfect device within less than a month, holy shit

@thunfisch it's a gorgeous piece of tech, I don't think I'd miss the heart rate sensor, plus I have a thing for round screens

I think I'll need to switch my Pebble Time 2 preorder to this, holy shit https://repebble.com/blog/pebble-round-2-the-most-stylish-pebble-ever

Also there's definitely a romantic subtext with Sam and Frodo, even if Tolkien didn't realize it himself. A gardener doesn't usually passionately declare his willingness to die for his employer

it's funny how little he hides how the four Hobbits are just his ideal for how people should be, they appreciate good food and drink, like to be comfortable, don't care too much about riches or power, don't involve themselves with bigger things in the world but will become heroes if need be, especially to support a friend.

finally reading LotR in the original English and wow the Hobbits' journey to Rivendell is way longer than I remembered and this Tolkien fellow sure knows how to write

@mcc couldn't you use a virtual screen for debugging? wayland/x11 should both have tools to have one displayed in a window
