  • I’m not at all, vegan as a personal trait is a bit of a broad church these days.

    There’s the people that are mostly motivated by the not-killing-animals thing

    Then there’s the ones doing it predominantly for environmental reasons

    Then you’ve got the ones doing it for various health reasons

    Then you’ve got people doing it predominantly for cost reasons (fewer here, given vegan is still treated as a luxury aspect in a lot of food categories)

    Those groups do not have to overlap in views at all. It’s entirely expected for there to be disagreement and purity test drama given that IMO







  • They’re designed to have a case now

    I don’t like it, but that’s why. You’re simply not supposed to use them without a case.

    I will say though, I don’t know where you’re getting your cases from, but I swear by the Spigen ones, they’re usually £10-20 and I have bought one the day I buy a new phone for probably the past 10 years or so.

    I’ve not smashed a screen since I started, I used to have to talk to insurance once a year before. That £15 every couple of years has saved me hundreds of pounds in insurance excess fees.

    I don’t even use a screen protector






  • Part of me wonders what chipset is running that adapter, and if you’d get a better one if you went for a miniSAS adapter rather than individual sata ports (enterprise port generally implying a better controller chip)

    Then realised there would probably be no use for such an adapter in enterprise so if you did get a different connector it would probably just be the same interface chip as whatever is in this.








  • I’ve seen this sentiment a few times online, so I have to wonder how you all are preparing your tomatoes and the sandwiches that they go in? I just don’t seem to have this problem

    Cutting them up wrong? e.g. halved/quartered cherry tomatoes

    Is it a stacking order thing? e.g. maybe between slices of Gouda?

    Overuse of condiments? e.g. too much mayo/dressing around them

    I always season tomato slices before using them, as it’s obviously against the Geneva convention to not, so maybe that’s the extra friction the war criminals are missing?
