Thinking about my next laptop and #Apple has been giving me the ick lately with some of what they're doing.
Anyway, politics of it all aside, I'm thinking about a #Framework 13. Very expensive, but will hopefully last a lot longer.
Anyone have one? What do you think of it?
I heard this great saying today...
"Intelligence is knowing a tomato is a fruit. Wisdom is knowing to not put it in a fruit salad."
My wife recently got a rooster to help look after her flock, and it's a fucking beast!
For reference, the one behind is a fully grown, normal size hen.
I swear it's a goose in disguise! πͺΏ

Youngest: Daaaaaaaaad, how was the earth made?
Me: [explains the Big Bang theory]
Him: So it made EVERYTHING??
Me: Yup
Him: Even that rock?
Me: Everything
Him: Even that tree?
Me: Everything
Him: Even those ponies?
Me: Everything
Him: Even my socks?
Me: EVERYTHING!

Walked up to my youngest, put my wrist on his head and said.

Spring is definitely in the air. Today might be a good day for the first grass cut of the year...

I got my phone back today, really quick turnaround, which is impressive. But they only repaired stuff that's broken, not anything cosmetic. So the bezel still has a shit load of chunks and scratches out of the aluminium.
Annoying...
I don't know how anyone uses an #iPhone without a case. They're almost impossible to grip without one!
Are these things made of Teflon??
