Can solve the three body problem. They're under the patio.
I have a rule to never *ever* buy anything immediately just because it looks cool, or is a great deal, or "this special offer must end soon". Anyway, these looked cool, and arrived today from Aliexpress!

Incredibly Lazy #Tomato #Soup. So good that it should be capitalised.
Dice and fry onions, add a load of garlic paste (yes, paste, not actual garlic - remember, we're being lazy), add a load of roughly chopped tomatoes, some finely chopped basil, thyme and rosemary, and a beef stock cube. Wait a bit.
Well, I have thoroughly failed to do anything #NetBSD-ish with my dinky little #Vortex86 machine. Even if I attach a real VGA monitor nothing appears on the screen so I can't even check BIOS settings. Gonna relegate that to a rainy winter day project.

Noooooo!!!!!!! #9front is down!!!!!!
I hope this means that the head 9front honcho is doing the yearly on-stage presentation about shiny new things we'll be able to buy later today!
