An RG35XXSP. Basically an emulator in the style of a GBA SP. I've had other handheld emulators before but I like the style of this one with KNULLI.

Zojirushi Thermal Flask. That thing is magic.
I've bought a few things recently, but one that really sparks joy is a 3DConnexion space mouse. Bit of a learning curve, but now that I'm used to it, the QoL improvement in navigation while 3d modeling is huge.
My wife's insurance company get this, requires, we track our exercise/activity. Because it's a free country and all. If we don't the insurance skyrockets. To that end her employer gave us money to buy a fitness tracker. I used that and added some extra to buy a Withings fitness tracker. It looks like a normal kind of elegant watch but also tracks fitness. I friggin love this thing. Best watch I've ever owned. It's called a Scan Watch and has a very tough, I think it's called Ruby glass. An elegant look, a low profile( because I bang it on everything).
It's not cheap at all, but it's one of the best things I've bought recently that I'm really satisfied with.
Fortunately, we don't have that insurance anymore, but hey, at least I got a cool watch.
Pay a local on-foot letter carrier, cycle aficionado, or hiking enthusiast to carry it around with them.
Fuck these guys. Luigi did nothing wrong.
Yeah, like on Big Bang Theory. Strap it to a motor or something. So glad that is over with. I mean we could have said no, but the cost to do so was astronomical.
Jesus. fuck insurance companies.
nice watch though.
I know right. At first they gave us a free fitness tracker. It was the crappiest POS you've ever seen. Every time I put it on, it was like a ball and chain. As soon as I accumulated the required yearly steps, I ripped that thing off. Free friggin country.
I bought the Remarkable 2 about two years ago, but since I had to get a replacement, I guess it counts. I love the e-paper's magical feeling in general. Remarkable in particular amazes me with the openness e.g. giving me SSH access to the Linux-based system. I wish they'd focus on customization, tinkering and stability, but unfortunately that doesn't seem to be the case.
Can you expand on the openness aspect a bit.
I got the Boox Note 3 a few years ago, because it runs Android and I could install Syncthing on it.
I didn't realize that the remarkable was able to be accessed.
Can you install whatever you want?
It has a Linux-based OS that you can SSH. You can install community-maintained stuff with Toltec. The Awesome Remarkable is a great overview.
However for 3rd-Party software and more general features, even with the openness, it doesn't come close to Onyx. In general, the remarkable is more focused on distraction-free e-reader and note-taking capabilities. And honestly even being part of this target audience, if it wasn't for the affordable replacement offer, I probably would've rather looked into other e-ink devices.
Thanks.
Looks like there are a lot of extras available. I'll only get one if a really good deal shows up. But it's good to know that it is somewhat hackable.
I ordered a PineNote last week.
I was thinking about purchasing a remarkable 2 or a Boox Note Air 4C before but in the end I would have to tinker with all of them to get a setup that meets my needs so I just went with the most open variant.
I hope the hardware is up to the task but just reading through the specs it seems pretty similar to the remarkable 2.
Out of interest, what happened to your first remarkable 2 that you had to replace it?
It took a bath in ice tea for a few hours and it suffered even more when I stupidly connected it to the PC before I saw the wet folio and bag. I probably would've looked into other alternatives, too, if I didn't receive a replacement offer for ~130€. I love it, but it does have many faults, that for some people may be unacceptable for the price. But that seems to be the current state of e-ink tech in general.
For 130€ I would have taken the remarkable 2 as well, unfortunately used offers start at 350€ here. As for new, the PineNote is actually cheaper than the remarkable 2.
A new chair, I had a gaming chair that killed my butt and back (was cheap and had it for 6 years) now I got a true ergonomic chair, and wow! I didn't think the difference would be as big as it is. I didn't want to sit by my computer because of the old chair. This one follows my body movement in the back so I can stretch and move without feeling restricted.
Here is a link to it, but I bought mine from a refurbish store that fix up office furnitures from companies and resell them so I got it for less than half the price and it is like new. https://www.steelcase.com/products/office-chairs/think/
Crandall?
No, but Crandall have it without the headrest for the same price. I am still contemplating if I like the headrest or not.
Crandall seem to have a lot of nice reviews so they seem like a good pick.
I got a chair from them about four ish years ago. It's nice to see companies that really, genuinely refurbish stuff. My chair has held up great and only came with a few cosmetic scratches on the back. Well worth the massive savings versus buying new!
I am with you 100%! Instead of buying a mid tier chair did we get a high tier chair for the same price. It is good for the environment, your wallet and your body, big win!
I’m enjoying the Steam Deck I bought last month. I was on the fence about getting one for a long time because I already have a decent gaming PC, but I’ve used the Deck a good bit more than my gaming PC since getting it. I thought for sure I would have put Bazzite on it by now, but I’m still enjoying it with stock SteamOS.
A pack of 4 glass panels for the whopping cost of 5€99 shipping included, to make a glass painting pallet:
Re: your edit, what you want is: “What recent purchase do you really love?”
But it could be worded a number of ways.
Mine is a quantity of One Piece trading cards cause they’re fun to look at.
More practical: a split sprayer / pouring oil dispenser for cooking oil
Just recently got a hair band to help me keep back my long hair. I was originally using my over the ear headphones, but decided I need something dedicated to it. My mom, thinking she'd help, sent me some stuff that I was absolutely not interested in, like some sort of beanie hat thing or sports men's camp headband thing, trying to be helpful, but I just ended up getting a Camila Paris headband that I really like.
Bought and old desktop to use as a home server and media storage. The wife and I use it a low pirate media that's not on Netflix
We do the same thing, except everything that IS on Netflix, and everywhere else...
I've lately started using more paper notebooks for various projects. Recently bought a new sketchbook. Will go buy a paper almanac for the next year today.
I'm a huge tech nerd, but I don't think going 100% digital works for me. Also noticed that one of the ways I can deal with ADHD is to stop messing around with computers and do things by hand.

You're looking for -
What object, that you recently bought, do you really love?
"What love object bought you?"
FTFY.
I don't think you need the commas, because it's a restrictive clause (i.e. the sentence wouldn't maintain its meaning if you removed it).
Yep but no matter which way I wrote it, someone on Lemmy would tell me it was wrong.
Bawbag 😂
I don't need a hammer drill a huge amount in my work so I always thought my old, corded Hilti was perfectly sufficient for the job. Well it broke beyond repair a while back which was a bummer but I then bought a cordless 18-volt Makita hammer drill and oh my.. I didn't realise what I was missing.

“Object”
Dang, you're right, I wasn't paying attention. The pink leash for my new puppy.
