You have more control over the cars throttle. Like using the gears to actually slow the car down rather than just using the brakes.




Do you believe in Santa?


I can’t believe we still haven’t had a Steamworld Dig 3. The first two are fantastic games. Not too hard, just fun. I was really excited to see the story didn’t end in number 2 and yet years later we still have no sign of a new game on the horizon. Maybe they also struggle with the number 3 of games like Valve does?


Holy shit. That’s a program I’ve not heard on a long long time.


Mines a hand soap. I’m 43 but heard the name as a kid in my dad’s car garage. It’s a soap for removing grease and oil from mechanics hands. I always liked the name. It’s not like any other English word or name.

I currently still use Gmail, but I am looking to move away. I recently signed up for simplelogin.io and purchased a cheap domain name to use with it. I then went around changing my Gmail email address to a different email alias for each and every site I use. It’s a lot of work and I found some sites you can’t change the email address, they refuse to allow email aliases or you have to contact support to get them to change it. All a pain. For the majority though most are now on my own domain’s email address and all point to my Gmail inbox. At least now when I do switch I have done the hard work and only need to update the email address in simplelogin. Since I use my own domain, I shouldn’t lose access to the email account should I need to move it away from simplelogin.


So from Fastmail you can see/modify the calendar in Google that’s been shared with you?

I’d like to be able to keep the shared calendar feature that I currently use in Google with my wife. It’s so handy for organising things.


I share my Google Calendar with my wife (also on Google). If I wanted to modify or even view her calendar, is that still possible?


If you’re moving your email address consider using a mail alias. If you move again in the future it will make the process a whole lot easier as you won’t need to go to all your sites to update your email address. You only need to update the one email address with the alias provider.

I use simplemail with my own domain



I don’t. But their hardware is top notch. Fuck Apple. I like my Google Pixel. But fuck Google too.

A very easy to follow channel explaining all things computers. It should come to no surprise the guy is (was?) a lecturer at university


Very much this. It feels like being back on Reddit. Without Reddit…


I’ve been using Connect until now. Connect worked but, for me, it was like wearing work boots in and around the home. Sync is like wearing slippers again.



I got the same watch last month, the non-s version though. I have always struggled to keep a watch on my wrist. With a phone I no longer needed to keep the time on my wrist. I did get a smart watch a few years ago but just couldn’t get on with it. It ended up in the draw to never be used again.

Last month I started looking again and settled on the Instinct 2. Initially I wanted a colour screen but in reality I am actually very happy with the monochrome display. It’s always on and has a long battery life. I’m actually really impressed with how good it is at tracking your health etc. I tracks all activities I do. It’s quite granular too in that I can choose from road, mountain bike, gravel bike etc. It also records kayaking and standup paddle boarding.

At ÂŁ200 it was one of the more reasonably priced smart watches. Certainly compared to the Fenix which is another ÂŁ400 extra.



Windows 11 because the games I play don’t support Linux.
