The waiting time heavily depends on whether you want Intel or Ryzen, and whether you want 13 or 16 inch.

13 inch Intel should ship pretty much instant even now as far as I know, the just released Ryzen now has to catch up with pre-orders first, and 16" isn’t yet released AFAIK.

I bought a refurbished 11th gen Intel back in March and that got here in just a few days and I can’t say anything about it didn’t feel brand new. Have been using it almost daily since.

That really ruined the day of my partner when it came to light, he is … was a huge Iced Earth fan for decades 😕

Yes, 40, Germany. And I actually do.

Another happy (though quite new) owner of a VIOFO here, A119 Mini v2 in my case. Great picture quality.

Is this actually a thing here

You would increase your chances to get helpful insight significantly if you’d clarify where “here” is. It’s a big world with a ton of countries, and this is an international place.

Maybe this helps, it has some good examples on what the various fallacies look like, and combining that knowledge with a hunch of “something here sounds fishy” is basically what I do I think.

And here as well! Thanks everyone!

Definitely In Other Waters, an earlier work from the same people who recently brought you Citizen Sleeper. It’s a narrative heavy game were you play an AI helping a xenobiologist. You perceive the alien maritime world through a quite minimalistic interface, and nevertheless that game had me on the edge of my seat from the start. Highly recommended, and IMO far too little known.

Currently 70% off and less than 5€. Also available as part of a bundle with Citizen Sleeper.

Christopher Odd, hands down.

Discovered him around the time XCOM2 got released, because I was looking for someone to learn a trick or two from. Learned a lot from how he plays tactical games, but stayed for his calm and down to earth way (I absolutely can’t stand that hyper, over-the-top crap that a ton of Let’s Players do). Have also discovered the one or other gem through his videos.

Can only recommend!

Oh, and I also watch a ton of stuff on game design due to an interest into game development and recently did a blog post on my favourites there. To quickly summarise that: The Architect of Games, Design Doc, Game Maker’s Toolkit, GDC, Noclip, Razbuten

Yeah, that just had to be said since it’s a bit of a pattern indeed 😅 I warned Daniel that I’d drop that if they got me on for that topic ^^

What a nice idea!

My claim to fame is probably OctoPrint, a web interface for consumer 3d printers that I created over a decade ago now and have been maintaining ever since, since 2014 full time and since 2016 also 100% crowd funded. It’s written in Python (backend) and HTML/JS (frontend) and licensed under AGPLv3.
