😂 Holy shit these guys named themselves and this song for a Terminator 2 reference

Clearly nobody in the Aussie govt has ever heard of or loaded a tumblr page before 😂

Look at this once glorious train set, stripped and consigned to life as a 'temporary' gate. Where once it kept hearts full, now it merely keeps the dog in.

"You'll put me back together after this, won't you, Bob? I'll do this a little while and then you'll remake me? Bob?"

"Uh, yep, sure will..."

Ooh jeez. Gonna need this. #Lego kit 10356 is the USS Enterprise D! 3600 pieces, 9 minifigs (but not Yar! 😭), and a removable shuttle bay roof that reveals two tiny shuttles inside. And it comes with a larger shuttle kit as a gift, with Ro Laren!

$400 USD, $599 AUD. Available Nov 28!

I didn't love the new films so in that respect I'm okay with this, but as Seán notes, what it means for Trek in the broader sense is worth worrying about.

Still, on a personal note, there'll always be just one Star Trek IV!

@pocketcasts.com any idea why the Google sign-in button doesn't work here in Android Automotive (in a Polestar)? I'm definitely online, other apps are working fine.

Loved the first book! Alas, I don't really do audio books (hard enough keeping up with podcasts and new music and everything in between!), so I guess I'll be waiting this near-eternity for the written version 😭

I've decided my kids can have screen time on school mornings. But, it's music videos. That I choose. Let the edutainment in! 😁

Not saying I /want/ tiny AI spider robots policing our homes but I wouldn't mind if I could just have a few of my own to regularly index my belongings so I can cmd+f reality

Searched bsky for "Threads" to see if I'm the only one having issues with it crashing, wild to see how many people are aggressively ready to believe this shit. It's literally just jackasses adding the text to their own posts to stir up these reactions. Can folks have just a fucking modicum of sense?

It's mostly good! This is the JJC grip, which I found extended a little further past the thumb than I would've liked, so I used my Dremel to grind a bit off the end!

As for the coloured buttons, it's just paint. I'm a loose cannon with the Posca markers 😂

Photographers, what are you shooting on? These are my lovelies: #SonyAlpha A7CR, #Lumix GM5 and #Ricoh GRIIIx. #photography

Only just noticed the latest update to Samsung's Good Lock extension offers direct access to its tweaks for how folders appear, rather than having to first go into the Good Lock. Noice! #android #phones

Technologically advance a band:

Johnny Electric & The Resistors

(One for the elder Aussies there! 😁)

There's a long one too 😁

When it comes to utilities you absolutely don't leave in any family space, Daiso delivers 😂

Samsung OneUI 8 now includes a lock screen option to have the clock wrap around the subject of a photo, which is very cool, but I still don't understand why they haven't ripped off the iPhone's lock screen depth effect.

They all copy each other, so Samsung might as well copy this too 😂

Much cooler than this wannabe Chinese Audi I spotted in Berlin. Cool idea though. 45kmh limited (so no highway driving allowed), 110km range. Pricey though; around 5-8000 euros.

Finally time to wrap my favourite part of the boy's birthday gift, signed by artist @jonahlobe.bsky.social! Such a cool book. I've been waiting months to give him this!

Yet another thing that keeps me on Android!
