I used to play strip pool at a friends house. :blush: I won many of them down to 2 pieces of clothing still on :evil:
 
Built myself a decent 4k gaming rig to play on my new 55" LG oled. The 4060ti in the first picture was just temporary until the 4080 super arrived. Got a decent setup now.

Well much to my surprise a very nice Surface Duo controller did actually turn up today!

As you may notice in the picture, it seems I have also gotten incredibly unlucky to have a right stick that seems to have fallen out of place during shipping... Hoping it's an easy fix, the controller feels great as a whole.

Apex Legends Nessie. I don't even play Apex, but it's cute.

Forerunner 255 and some screen protectors for it.

Despite the name, the 255 is a multisport watch and according to reviews one of the best cycling ones (my primary purpose). Got it to replace my fitbit charge 4.

I was quite happy with my charge 4, then Google bought Fitbit and thought "lets make it worse". On the new app GPS activities no longer show your maximum speed. Max heart rate is no longer easily listed, you have to flick through an interactive graph and hope you manage to hit the highest peak, before there wasn't an interactive graph, it just listed max for you. No idea why they didn't just add the interactive graph and leave everything else.

App is also just a piece of crap now. Constantly refuses to sync and makes me remove and then add the charge 4 again. Never had to do it with the old app. Sideloaded the old app and all the issues go away, but who knows how long the old pre-google app will work, so switching to Garmin.

Oh and the icing on the cake, when people complained about max speed being removed, fitbit claimed the app never showed it.

Why buy something just to make it worse, makes no sense.

hello nessy
 
By recommendation of a fellow Temper, I buy this microscope, I already have a WiFi one, but the stand was a nightmare and the need to have a monitor or the phone was no good to electronic soldering, I didn't think this was so good one but amaze me with the quality of the general device and even the great image of the screen.

Only I wish had come with a screen protector, but well tomorrow will look for one.

But for 35 USD from Ali, was a deal.
