Pagani design self gift

Well, I will never afford a Rolex Explorer II so... I got this cheap homage or clone, I’m not sure how you’d classify it.

1 minute every 2 or 3 days, NH 35 movement.

Setting time feels cheap, hands move with quite a bit of slack. But the casing and bracelet feels solid, the finish good for less than 80E.

The blue lume lasts a few minutes in the dark, it's a real joke.

  • @JimmyMcGill Not that I want one, I already have a switch for the last 10 years.
    It’s a small device, silent, that fits well next to the Tv.
    Can play silly games with the child, and play my own games during the 10 minutes free time I get every two moon eclipse 🙄

  • @JimmyMcGill I don’t buy Nintendo exclusives, and very very few AAA games. It doesn’t matter.
    Does the steam deck works flawlessly every single time? Is is a no brainer switch on and play console ?
    My switch is docked 90% of the time, is the steam deck as good as a 90% TV console…?
    I am not convinced, not saying steam deck is worse than switch, I just don’t know anybody with a steam deck around me.

  • @shellsharks It seems people in cybersecurity often have specific hobbies, like motorcycle, range shooting, sometimes martial arts.
    Do you share this observation ? I suspect it's because a mindset but I am no expert there...

  • @Spaniard It's all good if it works for you, no problem.
    For me TB lacks a few things, I have a vague feeling that BB is what TB would have been if Mozilla still cared for users more than other things 🥲

  • @Ephera OpenSUSE is first to come to mind, then probably Mageia + OpenMandriva (Mandrake derivatives).
    All these EU opensource initiatives looks really good, but I fear that they may just be trying to pump taxpayer money and produce actually nothing usable.

    Linux Mint @lemmy.ml

    Unexpected benefit of Linux Mint relative slowness following Ubuntu releases, as they like to keep a safe pace and make things working right before releasing new versions : it aligns with enterprise

    Unexpected benefit of Linux Mint relative slowness following Ubuntu releases, as they like to keep a safe pace and make things working right before releasing new versions : it aligns with enterprise software surprisingly well.

    Enterprise software are even slower to update, meaning the network shared printer drivers, corporate Zero trust client, email server connector, antivirus (as in paid, licenced av agent) does works perfectly.

    Mint sits right in a sweet spot about both corporate bloatware and OSS.

    Like many others, I’ve been looking into internet browsers lately. This guy has put together a pretty extensive comparison: pctips.com/best-browsers

    Upgrading from a Pi4 to NUC clone?

    Hello there,

    I’ve been running a little army of raspberry pi and libre computer lepotato for many years now.

    Sometime died of overheating, one died because the microsd card failed so hard that some kind of electrical shock took off the whole pi.

    I’m looking at this trend: replace that with a single or a 2 node cluster of mini pc.

    The point is I still want to consume as less electricity as possible. So low TDP CPUs 10 to 15W is my most important criteria, then 2 disk bays (don’t care about the form factor or connector).

    Reading buyers comments on Amazon indicates that cheap Chinese mini pc have their ssd dying quickly, or their motherboard, or their power supply, sometimes in months, not even a year.

    Would you please recommend a low power mini pc please ? It may be Chinese but from a reputable brand (which I fail to determine).
