  • I have a Mobile Pixels one, it’s certainly been a big help. Power and picture from the same USB-C cable. It was kind of hard to install (have to adhesive on some magnets correctly, glue wasn’t too great, I recently replaced them with some other adhesives I bought online, worked good so far).

    For the most part it doesn’t give me any issues, does what I want of it, but if I have one complaint it’s that when I’m playing a game that uses my laptop’s graphics card, I will usually have to unplug and replug the screen back in because it begins fizzling out like it’s losing power or signal. Functions fine after though. It’s slightly annoying but not that big a deal.

    Overall I don’t regret my purchase, I just wish it was a bit more polished with an easier and more reliable mounting process and not fizzling out when I play intense games.



  • I’ve heard it pointed out before that these kids were living on World War 2 rations and, regardless of the quality of Turkish Delight under normal circumstances, it probably tastes a heck of a lot better when you’ve been eating mostly meat, cheese, and preserves for the last however long (though in Googling it, I see they did get SOME sweets in rations).






  • I can’t prove it, but there’s a florist in my town, definitely still in business, that I have not seen a non-company-branded car in front of in actual years. Morning, noon, and night, never any customers. Never any movement from inside. The only time I ever saw the lights on was in the dead of night. The building is half-claimed by ivy.

    If it weren’t for the upkept greenhouse and the sign out front occasionally changing, you’d never know it wasn’t totally abandoned, but it’s still operating. Mob activity is the only way to explain it.
