I cant help but feel this is some sort of password reset question farming…

Anyway,

No PETSCII?!

I have a cheap set of nylon brushes I bought specifically for this, they are a good compromise. Softer than a toothbrush and get into smaller spaces.

My approach is to start with the least aggressive cleaners and work up if the weak one doesn’t work. So basically start with dish detergent, then window/surface cleaner, alcohol, and WD-40. Acetone is the final solution, but since it melts plastic its only useful on metal or ceramic. The lettering on the NES and Commodore keys will come off with alcohol. You should always test alcohol on a small area first.

For rust, soak in white vinegar and then scrub to neutralise and remove. You should then rinse well and clean to get rid of the vinegar.

Personally I’ve only ever retrobrited plastic, but I tend not to anymore because it really does make it more brittle. Also it can be patchy on anything other than white/beige.

I dunno. I feel like expensive boots have turned to crap over the last few years.

Aldi UK beans aren’t as good as they used to be. I think they changed about 6 months ago. That said, they are still decent and my beans of choice.

And with worse safety, it would appear.

Also, most albums tagged with shoegaze on Bandcamp are not shoegaze. It’s a travesty.

The Switch is “okay”. You can set a daily limit and an end time. As well as allowing or blocking titles. You can’t set more granular sessions times, or even a start time. And “bedtime” cannot be earlier than 4pm. It’s all a bit limited compared to Xbox from example, but it’s okay. You control the times from a mobile app.

Nope

Scotland here. Does this come in black?

Bad bot. You’ve removed most of the meat of the article. TL:DR - Oversized components and cheap solder cause weak connections and make the drives prone to breaking. It also impacts 2GB and 3GB drives.

What? I mean, they were young when they did all the good stuff. Black Francis was 14 when he wrote Hear Comes Your Man. There is a Brixton Academy video from 1991 on YouTube and two or three 1989 shows too. Forget about the newer shows! I saw them live in 2004 and 2005 and they were still great, but those earlier shows are where it’s at.

Bad bot. You skipped the main part:

“At first it was called Ehfir,” Putin said. “And at one of my public speeches I was talking and said it was Sfera. I arrived at the Kremlin, and the former Roscosmos head greeted me and said, ‘Vladimirovich, you said it was project Sfera, Sfera you said. That’s what it is, project Sfera.’”

Imagine if this guy was your boss.

I’ve pretty much resigned myself to the fact the only electric car I’ll ever own will be a 10 year old Nissan Leaf.

20-30K?! Holy crap. I’ve never spent more than 10K on a car. But then I’ve never bought a new car…

Urgh. The only people in our house who watch it are the kids for cake based reality shows and Lego animation. So as soon as they raise the prices it’s getting cancelled.

I saw your channel on maker tube (I think) today when I was looking for Jan Beta’s channel! You can use NewPipe (Android) as an app for Peertube, but it’s a bit fiddly in your normal Fediverse style when trying to find and sub to people/channels. Also, I don’t think you really subscribe via NewPipe. Subscriptions are just local and it doesn’t use a Fediverse account.
