There's more than one actually; I was expecting to see this one: https://xkcd.com/3109/

I have a Quest 2 but I hardly ever use it for gaming (modded Beat Saber once in a blue moon). Instead, it's my personal gigantic HD TV.

I am a night owl but everyone else in my household is not so I use IR light sources and camera passthrough for janky night vision.

I sideloaded Android APKs and watch streaming video in super high definition. With wired earbuds and various settings and mods (such as spatial audio disabled) it makes for a comfy couch experience.

(I really wish the Quest wasn't tainted with Facebook though. Imagine Linux on it!)

Gale is such a sweetheart. I agreed to gay romance him mostly for the lulz but I found myself really moved by how gentle and caring he is.

Although his interaction with the wizard in the tower in act 3 was somewhat less wholesome lol

I like you too 💕

To add to your point, antiques are often an example of survivor bias. The stuff that lasted the test of time is generally the best stuff.

All the mass produced trash is much less likely to have survived to today, so when you find a well-cared-for antique it's more likely to be good quality

Surely the other orks would beat it back into line for not being orky enough

I have heard of people disassembling laptop battery packs which are apparently made of multiple 18650 cells, which are a super common standardized part that can be sourced very affordably. Then they simply replace the cells and keep the original battery enclosure and charging circuitry.

However, Chromebooks tend to be built for planned obsolescence, so it may very well be a one of a kind part

Plus it was usually yellowed and sticky with nicotine tar

TIL about soy chorizo and it sounds amazing 🤤

I recently used some glue that had that exact issue. I just needed it for a small repair and it actually worked great once I managed to get it out of the bottle (and off of my hands).

I used a large blob then clamped the wood and wiped off the excess that seeped out. If I was a real woodworker I would have sanded it afterward but it looked ok. That was about 6 months ago and the chair is still holding up

For a moment I thought that was the githyanki egg rather than a watermelon
