This is why my wife gets a stomach ache from brewed coffee, but will absolutely destroy a jug of cold brew.

It’s an outstanding machine for little rogue-likes at the bus stop, or some Star Fox, but I’m not even going to try to load something like Expedition 33 on it.

I like the idea that they approached Sony about making a Horizon game but Sony said no and they were like "Oh, well, this game is coming out…

Lenovo also sells older models for dirt cheap on their website sometimes.

I could replace the battery, but i want more devices like this, so I’ll put some money in and eat Ramen for a few weeks.

I’ll pay extra to tell the guy who gathered the eggs i appreciate him.

Local farmers market in 'Berta.

Just picked up 2 dozen local eggs for $9.99CAD.

The first thing I do with my isp provided modem is set it to bridge mode.

I have pebble, pabble, pibble, rebble, rabble, ribble and nibble.
