Since my laptop's battery fried out last week, I'm finally considering switching to something that's more solid (and trading portability with a tablet of sorts since my work doesn't include too much computing power), but I don't have the time or the space to assemble a desktop tower at the moment. Here's the reason why I was thinking of a mini PC, at least to buy some components that I could reuse (starting from the whole monitor-keyboard-mouse-HDD shebang) in the future. I'm thinking of something in the 350-400€ range, like the Beelink SER5. Do you all think it's a good option or I can aim for something else? I'm mainly looking for some light gaming, media handling (music and video), the usual.

Happy Halloween 🎃😹

Hi everyone, I've been trying the new app for the TCG and so far it's been quite a nice experience. Obviously the predatory mechanisms that were obvious to be present are quite hard to ignore, and the slight dumbing down of an (already way too) easy battle system surely makes challenges a bit more frustrating in that they get quite simple to read. However, the UX Is slick as hell and the way packets are opened really makes you feel all of that sweet dopamine hit you get from the real thing. Have you had any way to try It as well? What do you think about It?

Ignore the messed up face!

La mia domanda è a fronte della recente comunicazione di ISP riguardo al passaggio a Isybank, e ho pensato che potesse essere un momento adatto per guardarsi attorno.

Bella occasione per parlare di un sacco di cose diverse: in primis di Killers of the Flower Moon, che per quanto mi riguarda è balzato direttamente al primo posto dei film dell'anno. Poi, di Letterboxd: voi lo usate? Lo conoscete? Che ne pensate? E come bisogna valutare la decisione di Scorsese di aprire un proprio profilo? Mossa di marketing, sicuramente: ma quanti possono vantare di avere un mostro sacro del cinema tutto tra i propri utenti attivi, tra l'altro con un gusto così eccentrico e fuori dagli schemi come quello di Scorsese?

I recently started another run and I wanted to try a fascist Harry but I guess I'll never have the heart to delude Kim. On the other hand, I started interiorizing Revacholian Nationhood AND Krasmazovian Economics at the same time. Am I building a Nazbol Harry?

Speaking as a total ignorant from a coding perspective. But I guess that wouldn't be the hard part, considering that most of Duolinguo is just boxes and text inputs. How difficult it is to create a database of competent linguists with an efficient training who can progressively enhance your understanding of languages?

And most importantly, what do you think about it? I think it's quite bad except for a few nice details and while being definitely shorter it also feels like it's missing some of the features that make OP such a quintessential read. Nonetheless, still amusing lol
