it’s what I use, works great

i downvote things like this

yes

what does Reagan have to do with the article?

they kinda are Ireland, in primary school mostly but even in secondary school teachers are allowed to take your phone for 3 days if they see you on it

pretty sure silk road is gone irrc. I could be thinking of something else tho.

if guns were a thing in Ireland that would totally be one of my hobbies, I find them quite cool from an engineering pov and shooting things is probably quite fun too.

and yes ofc that also happens on Amazon

iirc drop shipping is where they also ship it from China too. so the person dropshipping doesn’t have to keep an inventory of things

I wouldn’t buy any storage from there but I’ve bought things like a 10 pack of tp4056 battery chargers and a clamp multimeter for a really nice price.

self checkout is a default for me

if I’m buying anything on AliExpress it’s usually various electronic parts and some tools. it’s really good for that kind of thing, way more of that than on UK Amazon and half the price. doesn’t help that I live in Ireland so occasionally you find something on UK Amazon that doesn’t ship to Ireland. the downside of AliExpress is that it takes a month for whatever you buy to arrive and the website is a mess

if you look up anything rooting or custom related, those sites seem to be half of what comes up

idk about modern tools but this totally works with an ancient Bosch drill I had, well at least the motor with speed controller from it

actually made my own site https://sandwich.sh/ you can do quite a lot with just html, I just don’t know what. the archive section is html generated with a bash script. sending it here because I think it’s cool

I use foldersync and sftp

maybe don’t keep everything on your phone then, or at least keep it backed up to somewhere else.

buy big spinny hard drives instead

they are nice if when going on holidays. although now that I’m carrying a 17 inch 3kg laptop to college and back every day it can be a bit annoying.

that explains why those all suddenly become attached
