Victorinox MiniChamp swiss army knife, I've had it for... 13-14 years now, and it comes in useful so often. About £30/$40.

What's the Seal instance? 🤔
Here Wego is the worst maps service I've ever had the displeasure of using. Amazon used to use it for deliveries (maybe they still do), and it took almost a year to get it to recognise that my house was not 8 miles away on a completely different road. It messed up the Amazon routes as the route it picked was all in that same area, except my house, that was 8 miles away.
The satnav keeps telling me to take the third reich...
A few things:
- I disagree that LCD is good enough, especially for living room gaming. It is the best and most significant upgrade I've ever done, by a long way.
- In terms of Steam Survey, again no arguments from me, oled monitors are rare, I was arguing that TVs are not.
- There isn't such thing as content that works well with OLED, everything looks significantly better, especially with HDR, which almost everything supports and has done for a significant period of time.
- As someone that has been using an OLED TV for 5+ years, burn-in really isn't an issue, there's not a trace of burn-in on either of my TVs, or any of my portable devices with OLEDs. The only time I've ever experienced burn-in on an OLED was a Nexus 5, which is so long ago, that it's almost irrelevant. In the case of the Nexus 5, the only reason it ended up with burn-in is because I enabled the developer option to keep the screen on at all times, resulting in the status bar burning into the screen. All modern OLED displays take burn-in into account and run screen cleaning occasionally, which isn't noticeable as the screen just appears a black. So unless someone is running a news channel with a static logo 24/7 on the screen, they're not going to have issues with burn-in. It's worth noting I have an OLED TV on my desk too (that one was indeed on sale, for ~400 IIRC), and that has static content such as an Apple logo (work laptop 😞), on it for hours each day, with no burn-in.
I'm not sure sub-£550 ($700) with reasonable sizes (42"), really counts at expensive AF anymore (not cheap but not expensive AF). But each to their own.
Monitors no, TVs very much so.
Funnily enough, the one you'd expect this from, the bank, I used to work for, it's all Go and running on k8s in aws.
100%, sounds interesting! I'm going to spend some time tomorrow looking at a bug in the jellyfin android TV app related to DTS audio over HDMI.
Definitely true, I dread to think about how much tech debt these companies have. 😬
