Random thoughts.... [Tech Edition]

I love everything about it. Except I actually want the ability to be harder to get a hold of. "yes sorry, I have a flip phone, please call me if you need something."
 
The GDPO didn't select VW Connected Services when they ordered my car. I rectified this by installing a Webasto ThermoConnect for controlling the pre-heater.

I found some really nasty bugs in the iOS app right away. Instead of trying to contact Webasto or writing feedback in the App Store I sent an e-mail to the Finnish company that actually makes it. They got bought up by Webasto. I got a reply within a couple of hours, and I just noticed the app had been updated fixing exactly the bugs I reported. :D

The scams are the utility.

It's not a bug, it is a feature!



When the scam already has a name...
 
Not going to lie, I don't understand NFTs at all. Maybe I'm officially old. 50% chance of that, 100% chance it's because they're bullshit.

NFT itself has some utility to efficiently and quickly "prove" ownership of a digital asset. But...their uses so far are almost entirely speculation/pyramid schemes/money laundering. Just like the art collection world is, anyway.

the glass on the front is super dope.

But my NZXT S340 Elite is already too big.

And...holy hell, $650? eff no.

I wish I had built an mATX when I built this thing, so I could fit it under my desk.
