Hell yeah. I wasn't able to get in an order before the 2 Duos went out of stock, but I look forward to getting a Time 2 next year. Hopefully they'll come back in stock eventually. Until then I still have three pebbles that work! (2x time, 1x 2).

Nah, don't use jellyfin. Directly host the file directory with Apache and access the media by typing in the full URI into VLC.

It may be cheaper, but don't buy your lab supplies from Sigma-Eldritch.

I've had no issues relying on my cap to seal the pen.
Just don't uncap or try to write during the flight.

Today I learned "Make This Right" comes from the Furi OST. It's been on my favorite songs list for years.
Oh man, Carpenter Brut, Danger, Waveshaper, and Scattle too?
