Looked up the NZME share price out of curiosity. Interesting

The M1 MacBooks are some of the best products Apple has ever made. I've had mine for almost 3.5 years now and I can't find a single reason to upgrade. It's fast, really fast, it has a fantastic display, speakers are great, battery life is good. They absolutely cooked.

The Google Play developer UI and overall 'experience' shout, in no uncertain terms: "We have no real competition and you have no real alternatives."

I didn't expect the Wireguard (open source VPN tunnel) app icon to be this badass

I found out my wife was cheating on me at a Red Hot Chili Peppers concert and I don’t ever wanna feel like I did that day.
