Glass is a verb isn’t it? What else would you do with them.

Nope, they can afford air purifiers

Oh look at that guy coming out of the water, should we stab him now or let him get up and out of the water fully first?

If you count ASCII graphics as text-based games you could play CDDA. Better requirement is games that could be played over an SSH session.

Now you need to try the XKCD tire spikes.

Once we start to hear about the zombie outbreak I will go door to door on my street and form a militia. Arm everyone with pike and spear to fight and practice fighting in formation. Picks and shovels to make earth barriers and spikes to slow and funnel the zombies.

I have worked with people that could be replaced with a small bash script. It’s more a question of when and how many

Pretty sure weed causes far less harm than organised criminal groups.

Could just have more than 1 backup though, then it doesn’t really matter much if the storage is less reliable as its very unlikely for multiple to fail at the same time

So does all storage media. The difference is just how long it takes.

Aren’t SD cards higher data capacity than HDDs at this point? Sure maybe not per unit or cost but for the volume of space I am pretty sure HDDs lost a while ago.

I think I will continue to not own a printer.

Ohh is that the proper name for them, found it on eBay very cheap. Ages ago I was annoyed at tin openers but tried one that should stab through the lid and then lever through. It broke within a day or two, it was rivited together and they failed.

Think I might just buy some, also a more practical size for taking out and cooking over a stove.

Not when I am done with it. From having to support them before I am so glad I don’t own one.

Really? I thought it still broke down but just took a while. Not that it really matters where I live, it all gets incinerated.

Isn’t PLA biodegradable though, so not really a microplastic problem.

Wish I knew, bought a handline to try from a kayak. No license so it barely cost me anything to try it, ended up feeling motion sickness after a little while and caught nothing. Might be worth trying to get a basic rod and go from land, but there is so much terminology I don’t even vaguely understand to go through. Think there are a bunch of different types, like you can just leave some hooks in the water and wait until something gets caught, or you may need to constantly be reeling in the line to get something to bite it. I know I would rather go with just leaving a few lines in the water, could have multiple out then too.

Had quite a bit more luck with crabs from the shore, though they are fairly small. Could probably make a nice crab fried rice with a few of them though and then use the bodies for stock. Not sure how much if any fishing regulations apply to restrict what I can do there though. Mainly limitations of method, like how many nets, how large. There are no catch limits on green shore crabs that I am aware of, brown crabs have got a minimum size and possibly a number limit for personal consumption.

Then of course I have no idea where is actually a good place, and I don’t know anyone interested in it to talk to that could help give useful advice.

Tbh I would rather a desktop and build that myself. If I wanted a laptop I would most likely be looking for very low specs and cheap, so second hand. Got a laptop with a 2011 pentium CPU somewhere and it works perfectly fine on Linux, even got a few games on it.

Drox Operative 2 runs at 60FPS, kinda makes me wish we had more 2D games these days as they can run on pretty much anything.

I already know how to cook poverty foods from living off £8k a year back around 2016.

Most of what I grow is for flavour rather than sustenance, pretty limited space. Doubt I will survive for long off garlic, bay leaves and rosemary with a sprinkling of mint.
