BowserBasher, in How Many Streaming Services Do You Have?

Two. Disney+ and WWE Network (UK so it’s still standalone). Always been a Disney fan so it’s a no brainier for me to have access to all the films and shows so easily. And the UK version has Star included so there’s other films to randomly find too. WWE Network is still the only way to go about it here, £9.99 a month (still, it’s never increased) and that pretty much is half what you would pay for the PLE each month. Plus NXT is now only on there in the UK so more than enough to justify the price for me.

Everything else I set sail for.

Filco Majestouch keyboard. I’ve been programming on mine for over 5 years.

It probably won’t outlast my IBM Model M, but it does feel lighter on the fingers.

zod000,

It might actually outlast your Model M. The membranes on the Model M seems to be the thing that has died for me (after like 20+ years mind you). I frequently still use my Leopold from 2009 and its rock solid.

Is that an IBM Model M, or a Lexmark Model M? Earlier Model Ms were entirely mechanical, later ones made by Lexmark used the buckling-spring-over-membrane design.

And in the case of a membrane Model M, I wonder if you can get a replacement from…whatever that company is that bought the molds and still makes them to this day.

voltaa,

Unicomp is the company you are thinking of I believe and I am pretty sure they will.

Yep that’s them! Couldn’t think of the name.

pHr34kY,

The internal board of my model M survived the dishwasher. In fact, it fixed it. They’re tough.

I have an OG early 90s model with a birth certificate on the back.

A duck!

Rosco, (edited ) in We've already started this year off with crazy shit. What else do you guys think will happen this year and why?

Hopefully a massive gamma-ray burst aimed directly at Earth.

Why kill everyone if you just want to kill yourself? I’m pretty happy with my life!

enshu, in How Many Streaming Services Do You Have?

I have one, Curiosity stream.

fievel, in What do normal people look at on their phones?

Please define “normal people”. ;)

Mr_Blott, in We've already started this year off with crazy shit. What else do you guys think will happen this year and why?

A completely new type of cheese

FR0578Y73,

I feel as though dolphin cheese remains largely unexplored

Mr_Blott,

I was thinking of pigs but I like the cut of your jib

Diplomjodler3, in What do normal people look at on their phones?

Facebook

I think combat drones will go full autonomous this year, as a means of overcoming control signal jamming.

It will be limited-mission autonomy, and only as a capability not the default operational mode, but there will be a huge push to make the newest drones capable of continue the mission in the event of lost connection with their remote controller.

It will also be necessary because of the sheer numbers of drones involved in the Ukraine war. There simply won’t be enough pilots.

Obviously, autonomy already exists. Iron Dome operates autonomously, because attackers have the initiative, the robot is required for fast-enough response.

Teknikal, in Anime fans, what are your favorite anime openings of all time?

I liked the angel bears intro enough thar I let it play I usually skip past them all honestly.

Don’t think I saw this one yet, but Briggs & Riley luggage. Lifetime no-questions-asked repairs for all functional damage, even if intentionally inflicted.

They’re also just very good. The BIFLness is cool but I’d have gone with another if it weren’t also the best in general. Super practical design.

HootinNHollerin, (edited ) in How Many Streaming Services Do You Have?

I personally have just YouTube premium and Curiosity Steam. Canceled my Amazon prime. I bum friends Netflix.

HeavyRaptor, (edited ) in What do normal people look at on their phones?

Normal people? Probably mostly Facebook, Instagram and candy crush. You can just take a look at the top free apps in your app store but I’ll give you a spoiler: it’s 99% junk.

Okay so I actually checked. The top 3 are Temu (a ripoff shopping app), WhatsApp and Tiktok in my region
