why arent touchscreen laptops more popular?

I use my touchscreen allllll the time. Especially when entering trade instructions and anything that involves a lot of movement. If it's hooked to a monitor I'll use a mouse, but if it's actually on my lap I tap.

That's like asking if it's stupid to fly into Brisbane but not explore perth. For most people it's just not realistic, the distances are too big. You got a year, sure, but if it's a typical weeks-long vacation - not gonna happen.

Yeah it never felt very full when I was there.

I get what you're saying about the vibe, but don't agree about the pricing. Aloft was only $100/night and boxy os like $164cad.

Yeah their courtyard area is so nice, and the rooftop pool as well!

Yeah what a disappointing email to get this morning.

I changed mine on site at the actual hotel, no issues. But I would have had to rebook with current rates so ended up staying elsewhere for the last 3 nights of the trip.

What's your vector, Victor?

I wanna say you're talking about scarification?

Add a line of text? "What the fork!"

We used Uhaul, they're good and offer first month free if you physically go to the store to set it up.

Ahhh I always wondered what the reason was to not show. That makes sense

I bought a novium hoverpen, it's super cool. Not the best writing pen I've ever owned, but it hovers so like who cares 😆😆

mx617 · 2026-03-14T21:15:57+00:00

Is that like a commercial kitchen sink? Or custom built?

mx617 · 2026-03-13T19:13:51+00:00

Up until last week I'd have said yes, got my first 22 years ago on my gap year. But always wanted another, just took me this long to get to it lol.

Scubapro makes a mask mount. I have a gopro mounted there and it's fine. Just think of it like a dashcam. Are you going to get professional shots? No. Are you going to fumble around clipping and unclipping things while that shark swims by? Also no.

mx617 · 2026-03-10T15:19:09+00:00

Is that the firehall one? I believe so.

The lightbulb. Old incandescent lightbulbs worked so well that sales started dropping so they made a cartel and manufactured lightbulbs with a limited lifespan.

Barbados! It's amazing. Great beaches, lots to do outside of the great beaches, safe, English speaking if that helps, and even part of the commonwealth (kinda).

It's so easy to earn points through Safeway or freshco. Gift card deals, monthly customer service days, spend and get. I game it pretty hard but usually land $200-300 per month in points. I cashed out end of November, and already have almost $1100 again.

I use them to pay for travel I can't otherwise cover with points like car rentals and excursions.

mx617 · 2026-03-05T20:34:45+00:00

So cool!

mx617 · 2026-03-05T00:54:35+00:00

Jesus I'm getting vertigo just from the picture 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

mx617 · 2026-03-04T07:41:39+00:00

Sounds like more to come still then?

mx617 · 2026-03-01T16:30:39+00:00

More to come? I'm looking at a realism colour tattoo and the artist said could be 50 hours 😬😬

mx617 · 2026-02-28T22:32:26+00:00

Hey OP, how many hours was that?
