I've completed my first Pokédex just now.

It really seems like a "the journey is the goal" kind of thing, considering there isn’t even any story stuff that happens afterwards.

Now I’m really looking forward to the expansions coming out later this year.

I’ve been playing Pokémon for most of my life and this is the first time I was able to actually finish a Pokédex.

Now I’ve seen 400 Pokémon and I’ve caught 399.
Once I get a sableye this will be my first ever completed Pokédex.

I‘ve been this close in let’s go as well but there the last missing Pokémon cost 30€ (mew inside the pokeball plus) and I couldn’t afford it.

If I was Ikea I’d make a game show where people have to build furniture and they get compared on how well they did and how quickly they built it.

Today we got a new appointment for a technician from our old ISP (the one that didn’t come yesterday without any warning) and signed a contract with a new ISP.

I wonder which internet connection will be activated first. (One is DSL, the other cable.)

We didn’t bring our old soap packaging with cute fishies that look kind of distressed when you refill it with non-transparent soap so we had to get a new one.

Maybe I’ll get the fishies so we have a soap dispenser in the kitchen as well soon.

Other people (boring): I bought this soap because it says it smells like stuff I enjoy

Me (cool): I bought this soap because there’s a giraffe on the packaging.

They almost certainly had grilled storm trooper at that celebration at the end of episode 6.

Either my ISP crashed my router or my router is really aggressive in trying to get connected to it and is launching a DOS attack against my ISP.

I kind of hope it is the latter.

Either way, my router keeps refreshing the "establishing a connection" page.

No technician came by the way. Phone support just said we should just try to connect.

ISP: your technician will come sometime between 8 and the inevitable heat death of the universe, or never.
If you’re not home while they try to reach you, you have to pay 30€.
Also they are coming to provide an expensive "service" that you don’t want but have to buy because contract law in your country sucks.

I wish they’d be as lenient with timeframes when it comes to paying one‘s bill.

Has anyone found out whether Fritz!Box/ AVM cable modems are affected by cablehaunt?
They (and my potential ISP) aren’t listed on the official website and I don’t want to deploy compromised hardware without locking it behind a firewall.

The best part about playing scrabble using a tablet is that there’s no debate over whether or not something counts as a word

Today I found out that one of the HDMI slots on our cheap TV is labeled "arc"

I was pretty happy about that because right now we have to use a converter to turn it’s coaxial sound output to toslink, which the audio system supports, and it’s a huge mess of cables to do so

Support for ARC is missing on the tv though.
I could not find the option for it in the menu where it’s supposed to be.

I guess that this functionality is only supported on the more expensive model with a different OS

Not a single answer or comment overnight.

This is not the experience I’m used to with stackexchange.
I would’ve expected at least 3 comments calling me "dude" and/ or ableist slurs and maybe one helpful tip by now.

I guess I’ll have to factory reset and hope that fixes the issue.

UPS stands for untitled postage service and was the inspiration for untitled goose game’s name.

It’s so bad I’ve resorted to asking a stackexchange question.
Something I had sworn to never do again.

Using Apple products stops being fun as soon as they stop to "just work"..

And now I didn’t even get any pickles.

My Mac still refuses to sleep/ wakes up after a couple of seconds, even when the lid is closed.

This is really annoying and terrible for battery life.

You know, I really like using MacOS but it bugs me that apples solution for pretty much every problem that isn’t fixed by a restart or settings flag is to reset SMC and NVRAM.
That’s like using a hammer to break open a jar of pickles -sure, you probably gain access to the pickles but also now you’re stuck eating glass.

It actually made its way quite deep into the wood. Cutting out the discolored part left me with a hole in the shelf..

Leaking batteries are no fun..
