Jake, 24, said buying in Sydney wasn't that hard. "I cut down on avocado toast, walked to work, and my grandmother passed away leaving me $1.2 million in a trust. Anyone can do it if they really want to." This story sponsored by news dot com dot au.

My 250466 Commodore 64 motherboard arrived. Now just need to find the cables to test (cough).

That empty space where all that RAM sat in prior versions looks so... weird!

The last of the longboard motherboards before Commodore consolidated the board and redused its size.

It just took me a half hour

to drive home from a mechanic

that is just over a mile away from our house

Helling ass I cannot wait until we can move into a better #CarFree area

This is stupid. Cars are stupid. The fact we built our entire society around cars is stupid and I hate it and I hate the people who manufactured it for their stupid profit

Good news everyone! What I was terrified was a melanoma was benign.

Still worth checking though, especially if you live in Australia, the land of sunshine and UV.

Just caught up on the latest of @davidgerard's Pivot to AI episodes.

It's about (a) vapes, (2) blockchain, and (三) AI, a combination I never thought would happen, but seems so obvious with hindsight.

I used to feel so self conscious about using an umbrella in sun (aka when it isn't raining), to the point where I ignored dermatologists and lived with my skin issue out of shame.

Just this year I finally started doing it and... HUH, my skin is doing great! Which has *improved* my self esteem. Who'd have thunk it!?
