Look what came in the mail? My @purism Librem 5, but I am still waiting on my SIM card For the Librem cell service for some testing between that and @Efani but this will be an interesting review of the battle of the privacy phone ecosystems I have made.

🆕 blog! “Review: EgoFit Walker Pro - an under-desk treadmill”
★★★★⯪
My doctor told me that sitting at a desk all day was slowly killing me. So I purchased a standing desk adapter. Then my doctor said I ought to take better care of my feet. So I purchased a massaging foot mat to go with my standing desk. Now my doctor says that I need […]
After three long years of struggling with the book and analyzing it I finally put my thoughts into a coherent blogpost. I never expected the Ministry to be #solarpunk , but I hoped that it will paint a future to look forward to.
You can never have too many USB-C ports, right? It's rubbish having a cheap laptop with only a single USB-C port. So, the good folks at Mokin have sent me a gadget which turns your single and lonely USB-C port into FIVE USB-C ports. Along the side you get 4 USB-C 3.1 port…
🆕 blog! “Gadget Review: Mokin USB-C Docking Station (+ Linux information)”

I've been looking for this rare beast for ages - a hub which has multiple USB-C outputs! You see it is a truth, universally acknowledged, that computers don't have enough ports on them. And laptops? Pah! A couple of USB-C if you're lucky, and one of them has to be us…
I have upgradeitis. If something newer and shinier comes out, my stupid monkey-brain compels me to buy it. Seven years ago, we installed a solar battery. It was part of an experimental project which looked at creating a community power-grid, so it came at a subsidised price. As I explained to BBC Click, the 2k…
I genuinely think that USB-C might be the defining feature of the 21st century. A little port which is cheap enough to add to the most trivial of devices, and that can carry an impressive amount of power and data. All of my gadgets have it - phone, eReader, headphones, laptop, thermal printer, battery, games […]
🆕 blog! “Review: Watchy - an eInk watch full of interesting compromises”
★★★⯪☆
The last smartwatch that I tried was some awful early Sony device with a locked-down ROM. The battery died after a day and I couldn't find the proprietary charger. It slurped up all my data. It was garish to look at. And it was expensive. The Watchy is the opposite in e…
Guten Morgen, diese Woche zum zweiten Mal #Wildsea gespielt, Zeit für ein kleines #PnPDE#Review - dieses Mal aber aus Sicht der Spielenden (ja, ich leite mal nicht 😁).
The Wildsea ist ein öko-postapokalyptisches Science Fantasy Rollenspiel mit dem Schwerpunkt auf erkundung der Welt aka Wildsea.
Bitte was? Vor Knapp 300 Jahren brach die Zivilisation zusammen. Bäume und Vegetation übernahmen den Planet und ein Meer aus Grün umspannt die Welt. 1/X
Supertoys last all summer long! But batteries do not. The last set of rechargeable batteries I had leaked everywhere, and I could never find the right charging lead for the gizmo which pumped power into them. So let's cut out the middle-man and plug a USB-C cable straight into our batteries! What? These were the […]
It's a STUNNING return to form. The OnePlus 12R is a proper "flagship killer" for North America. https://somegadgetguy.com/b/3y7
It's a price-to-performance that Samsung and Apple really have no answer for...
#Start9 sent me their Server Pure for a review. They appear to be based on the @purism Librem Mini computers. Intel ME is disabled out of the box. I will have to tinker with this on #twitch tomorrow live but their StartOS seems to be great for those starting to do a #homelab and they are all about data sovereignty and you owning your data. It has options to setup #Mastodon and #Matrix out the box as well as #bitcoin and #monero nodes with #tor as well.
Review: Skilhunt H150 - my favorite small headlamp
The Skilhunt H150 is a small headlamp with great color quality, magnetic charging, and the ability to use both 14500 Li-ion and AA batteries. It sets a new standard in its size class.
My #bookreview is brief/won't spoil, to spread good, great, & spectacular #horror#books far & wide.
Upon finishing NORTH AMERICAN LAKE MONSTERS I sat, quietly devastated by the elegant, bleak prose that spooled out stories of souls broken by fate, circumstance, tragedy, &/or the random cruelties of others. Beautiful, savage, resonant. A "must-read" collection.

I'm reviewing an inexpensive laptop from one of those super low cost budget PC brands, and yeah, the frame is generic, and the screen is just "good", and the sides are a bit creaky, but damned if I don't love how easy it is to pop open.
10 standard screws and I can replace almost everything on the inside of this thing...
Well, this is my #review of #Dune, and it is complete, because it ended here.
Random thoughts, my journey of reading and more filler because it's my #blog after all. Mild #spoilers ahead, behind a clear warning and you can skip them!
