Yeah I was wondering if it might be LLM generated, it just seems so pointless though. Additionally while the date could obviously be fake, June 2022 is before ChatGPT came out.
I have one of the originals too, I only use it in an emergency (e.g. maintaining a Raspberry Pi) because the trackpad is so awful - I can't type on it because the cursor jumps all over the place.
That basically shattered my dream of leaving my work laptop at home on short business trips. Well, that and it weighs as much as a laptop anyway so there wasn't actually a benefit.
You reminded me of one of the first Mac games I got as a kid: Shufflepuck Cafe, I don't think it had spin but the sideways speed of your mouse was imparted on the puck
My in-laws had a Dualit toaster. I am convinced this brand only survives in the market because people think they want one to signify that they've "made it", like getting an Aga.
The incredibly loud mechanical timer drove us all nuts. We always forgot to change the heating element (#slices) selector, so invariably ended up with one uncooked piece of bread. The pop up function is beefy but difficult to get escape velocity on small items. They eventually ditched it and went back to a £20 long slice Cookworks from Argos. They still have the Aga (also bloody annoying).
I started with Droidcam during the pandemic and switched to Iriun. Currently using it with an old iPhone SE over USB, but also used with Huawei P20 Pro. Not many features, but just works.
I used iriun a lot, a problem that I have with it is how much my Samsung phone heats up when using a higher resolution. Probably a Samsung/Android problem more than Iriun. I would love to have a phone quality camera in a regular USB webcam.
I don't know if there are many cricket fans here, but I wondered if this is why - when watching the Ashes highlights of the cricket on BBC iPlayer or YouTube - the ball seems transparent as it runs over the grass.
