Comparison of pilot capless and the clones

Packet loss. Hur hur.
I thought that these personality tests had been debunked?
We had the myers briggs test back in the day, and I've heard on couple podcasts that these tests (including MB) are highly questionable.
As it happens, the latest maintenance phase podacst is about the MB test:

Not listened yet, but will.
On a related note, I host the Guardian to gopherspace here: gopher://theunixzoo.co.uk/1/the-guardian
Sadly that's what the human race does. It's nothing unique to nuclear power.
It still baffles me, for example, that with all this technology, we still generate all this rubbish which we then bury in the ground. And we all know it. We all buy things in disposable packaging. We are all complicit.
The care and maintenance stage is part of the Nuclear Decommissioning Authority (NDA) decommissioning strategy and spans an 80+ year period. This waiting period allows for radiation levels within the reactor core to decline and helps to facilitate a smoother demolition process. Dungeness A is due to enter the care and maintenance phase in 2027. Demolition of reactor buildings and final site clearance is planned for 2088 to 2098

It's an amazing place. I visited last month. You can overlook the power station from a nearby lighthouse.
When reading about dungeness reactor i learned that even reactors that haven't melted down also take about a hundred years to decommission safely.
Another interesting stat I heard on a podcast is that the coal industry has proven much more deadly than the nuclear industry in terms of human lives lost.
Kids are crushingly expensive in their early years... if you want to have a career at the same time...

Picked this up for £11 from Aliexpress and I reckon it's one of the best FPs I own. Great for quick note taking.
Sure, it's a shameless clone of a pilot capless, but I'm never going to spend that kind of money.
Note also: only comes in . Writes like an if you ask me.
Considering buying a few more to gift to friends.
premium mouse that receives constant updates
Come on. How many firmware updates can we really expect for a mouse?
I've had an m570 for about 10 years. Every time it broke, I fixed it. Why do we need a subscription?

Parkker IM
(lemmy.sdf.org)
[Reposting, as it didn't federate properly last time]
This is a parker IM I've had in my collection a while. I don't usually go for Parker branded pens. I usually find them a bit boring/vanilla. But when I saw this one come up pristine on Ebay, I thought I'd give it a go.
It looks nice, but sadly it doesn't seal well. There's a hole under the clip that lets air in. Why? I guess I could try to cover it.
Bonus device in the background.

What's a "walk in"? What's a "whip it"?
Attention grabbing apparently.

Take the battery out if you can to avoid lithium fires.
Old batteries on constant charge... I worry about this kind of thing.
