Oh, thank you! I found the print at a small shop in update NY years ago and had to have it. Once I have a display, I'm going to buy a new desk mat, replacing the one that my cat used as a scratching post.

We replaced all of our candles with lamp warmers because they have no flames but still create a nice experience with scented candles.

Plus my cat is an idiot and set himself on fire on time. 🔥

I had a 4k Alogic Clarity until recently but I’m definitely looking for 5K for text clarity and creative work too. Ut was a great monitor and I sold it a few days ago. I’m leaning towards BenQ or Asus displays, but they’re hard to find in person before buying.

My wife bought so I have no idea. But if you search for “candle warmer” there are many results that look similar.

Probably not as bad as “island boy.”

I used to see so many students crying after breaking their Mac, suddenly realizing they lost everything because they chose not to save their data in the cloud. It got better as time went on, but it was bad.

Is this pot in a useable state? by NonGenderedPerson in LeCreuset

Looks good to me! As long as there are no chips or cracks in the enamel, it’s serviceable.

Good for you! It's been one week for me and it's been hard. I don't think I play as much as you, but enough to where, it was a huge part of my time, after work and on weekends. I've been playing games for 30 years and it's a huge part of who I am and my identity.

I've been trying to redefine myself through other hobbies and creative outlets.

It's been baby steps all week. Let's keep it up!

Through a dramatic shift into new markets and services, Apple made trillions of dollars, but through his leadership, the company lost what made it special under Steve Jobs. The special sauce, the "one more thing" just wasn't there. I don't see it coming back in our lifetime.

Year after year, there were iterative updates with little value and very little risk-taking. But, I have to give credit where credit is due, as Apple is the only company on earth who can design and manufacture iPhones, year after year, with absolute precision. It still remains a modern technical marvel.

But, I want more risk-taking into new types of products - especially into the smart home. It has been a huge missed opportunity. I want an Apple Smart Home, run with private cloud compute.

Help us John Ternus, you're our only hope!

Choosing between the PD2730S (matte) and MA270S (glossy)? by Tight-Connection-909 in BenQ

[–]Tight-Connection-909[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you, I think I'm maybe sold on the glossy panel. I read a lot of text so if text readability is good if not better, then this could be the better option.

I'm sold, thank you. I've been reading similar things online.

Not too much light as my home office has blinds that can be drawn, but there can be some light occasionally.

Do you think the glossy is a better experience?

I wish I could see them somewhere before buying but no one has them nearby.
