    SpaceX Awarded the Contract to Help Crash the International Space Station into the Sea

    If they can launch something to assist bringing it down... how about, oh I dunno, launching something to raise it's orbit back up? Why destroy the ISS, it's not like it's milk or eggs that goes bad? I understand maintenance is a thing. But if we destroy it, we have nothing to replace it with...

    Western Digital Launches WD Blue SN5000 NVMe PCIe 4.0 SSDs with up to 4 TB Capacity for Budget Users

    We'll see what pricing looks like but I am for affordable, name brand SSDs! I think I dropped over $300 on the 4tb black I put in the PS5. If I could see a 4tb blue for $200 or less, I would retire my ancient 5tb spinner/game drive

    Logitech Unveils Its Most Portable Keyboard Ever

    IR yep. I think I still have an IRman in my closet junk box I used for remote control. I mostly used Windows Media Center for playback stuff, but Winamp was always available for quick and dirty music playback. I was really looking into the cablecard or HD homerun options but they were pricey...

    Logitech Unveils Its Most Portable Keyboard Ever

    I had one of those back when I had a HTPC. Big fan of the trackball, the keyboard not so much and it desperately needed backlighting since I was always using it in the dark. It just up and died on me one day, and then learned they didn't sell them anymore. Just went with a Logitech K400 which...

    Star Wars: The Acolyte Premieres on Disney+ with a 94% Tomatometer Score

    Yep that one is the GOAT. I also liked Jedi Academy but that was probably more for the lan party lightsaber battles than the actual campaign story. Also relevant, but will it ever get completed? Outcast remake
