    That's very fortunate for him, but he and his family still have a rough road ahead.

    Steam deck portable handheld gaming PC from Valve

    Discontinued; you'd have to try ebay. Prices look like $50-100, which is highway robbery considering I got mine for $5. It was tempermental as fuck the last time I tried using it. Other solutions work a lot better. Try the Moonlight app if you have any kind of android-derived TV.

    Wait, there was a guy in that video? That should have been named, "If you look closely, there is a pineapple guy in this video."

    I think there's a lot of this combined with "get off my lawn". I remember when people used to think our brains would rot when calculators became ubiquitous and we stopped using slide rules, too.

    I don't train at gyms without on-site showers. I had skin issues for years while I waited until I got home home, even though it was a short drive. They immediately vanished when I started showering right after class. Combat sports in general are fucking gross. We had to toss a guy out of the...

    Woodworking

    Not woodworking, but in the same vein I've been very impressed with Wusthof's warranty on knives. My wife and I got a set almost 20 years ago for our wedding and over time the resin handles all cracked. I sent them back for repair this year and they immediately gave me $1200 in store credits...
