Just a tinkerer that can't believe people get so excited about the tech some of us had a decade ago and were called a nerd for.
This is a great review of a terrible thing.

Why are there no vegetarian ready meal options in the UK supermarkets?
There loads of vegie ingredients like mince and chunks, but only ready meal you'll find is tomato pasta.

After someone showed these off I had to get in on some super cute Molcar.
So fought the traffic after work to my local home bargains, who only had 7 randomly on a shelf.
Picked 3 up and....... What are the odds of that @dan.nerdcubed.co.uk ?

Why is it that in the UK we have to pay tax on the shipping cost?
I understand paying tax on the item being purchased but paying VAT on services such as shipping seems crappy to me.

I hope you don't mind, but since I couldn't find an official HubNut calendar of obscure and mediocre automotive delights I've made me own.
I particularly like August's "man contemplating daihatsu jigsaw in an invacar".
Bringing HubNut joy to my drab office corner.

So I now own 3 #mavica FD cameras (curse you @lgr-yt.bsky.social 😄)
And only this FD75 works, so went out to take some shots with its eye watering 640x480 resolution. And yeah, colour washed out a little, focus is questionable, but OK really.
Just the 27 shots per 2MB disk is awkward.

Just put this back together again.
I've never used it has the dreaded C:32:01.
I presumed bad disks or the drive needed a clean. Neither worked.
Sony still has a help post that says turn it off and on 🤦🏻
And the rest of the Internet can't agree.

I try to give my simple questions google mini but all I get now is
"I'm sorry I can't answer that. Try asking something else".
BUT
I play the audio back, my lenovo clock managed to answer each time!
Do I have to record myself and filter the audio, then play it back for google mini to work?

This paint brush was sitting on the sink at work and it bugged me.
Is it 4" or 100mm wide?
It cannot be both.
It's either 101.6mm / 4"
OR 100mm / 3.94"

As a fellow small hand person and old school geek I suggest trying launcher 95 on your phone.
It has a start menu you can scroll up with your thumb! And you can have it like WinXP!
This is assuming Samsung let you change the home screen app.
