Check out Hetzner, a German cloud provider. Established, reliable and way cheaper than AWS.

I know migrating is nigh impossible for most large apps, but creating a new one on AWS/GCP/Azure is so shortsighted.

More people need to know about alternatives.

My wife and I have a tradition for our anniversary - get a giant LEGO set, put on a movie and build it together. We've got the largest Harry Potter sets - Hogwarts castle, Diagon Alley and the Bank, Rivendell, the Grand Piano, some of the classical paintings, and a lot if smaller sets. This year it's the Barad Dur (Sauron's tower).

We usually buy when a sale or a flash discount comes up on one of the sets we like, and keep it sitting in the attic for a year until our anniversary comes. I mostly purchase online but I have zero issues just browsing a toy store. Online is just cheaper and easier to monitor for discounts.

LEGO finally leaned into the market for adults so the selection we appreciate is growing considerably. Also we've been getting into Star Wars thanks to Andor (my wife actually just saw 4, 5 and 6 for the first time) and there are many nice sets for those as well.

It's a nice hobby perfectly suited for adults (I wouldn't be able to afford those as a kid), and they make for nice decorations. Especially the paintings, flowers and other neutral sets.

You know you can remap it on Switch, right? It won't change the labels, but who's looking at the controller anyway.

I made a trip all the way to Svalbard last summer and it was amazing. I seriously considered looking for a cabin somewhere in Norway countryside and moving there may-september every year.

Where I'm at, the bed is 30°C when the printer is off right now 🥲

You can only manipulate one particle at a time.

Everyone knows where the gold is stored.

If you already have a decent PC, you can emulate Switch 🤷

I know there's a lot of hate for Microsoft on Lemmy, but WSL is one of the best parts of Windows. It's really powerful and well integrated to Windows. Since I still can't leave for pure Linux install, I'm glad for WSL.

Also if you stop paying, your fully functional printer will refuse to print. If you loose connection to the Internet, it will refuse to print.

HP products are forbidden in my house.
