And by the end I feel like it almost started.

Farscape. Always farscape.

I had to rent an apartment for two months in between my old apartment was sold and my new house was ready. The apartment was furnished, so everything had to go into storage. Immediately after we moved in the owners told us they had put it up for sale and we would have potential buyers coming by now and again.

I wasn't homeless, and in the grand scheme of things this was just a small pitstop in a fairly great (if somewhat badly maintained) apartment, but then, my other moves have been much smoother, so here we are.

I thought this would be about being s whole lot more wealthy, so I had questions ready a colleague of mine overheard from a seven year old.

"What is your estate called?"

"How many barrels of land does your family own?"

When it comes to a million euro house, I don't think you need to behave that differently from what's your norm. People from every walk of life can come into that kind of money, be it from inheritance, a good job, lucky investment or help from parents. Just pretend it's a house you can barely afford and ask questions as if you're considering buying it. Point out flaws. Or don't, you're allowed to reserve judgement.

The problem is once you really experience and notice high quality it's hard to go back

I had this with earphones. Once I bought a better pair, going back to my old ones, it just sounded like cardboard. Don't invest in good audio equipment, even once. It will cost you for a lifetime!

77" Samsung OLED.

Marantz 6015 running 5.2.4 surround

4 Tannoy XT-8F for front and surround

Tannoy XTC center

Fyne Audio F500 rear height speakers (Tannoy went out of business)

KEF q50a upfiring speakers for front heights

2 XTZ 12" 12.17 edge subwoofers

And an Nvidia Shield for good measure.

Ps5 performs disc duties.

I got a mail about that from my union recently... I think they had some talks about it.

My university mainly ran Solaris, pretty much everything also ran on Linux. In the rare case where Windows was required a remote desktop was available.

My university probably isn't your university though, so answers may not be worth much...

I agree. If I want a kind of app, not knowing it by name, it's nigh impossible to find anything useful.

But then, we're talking about Google, who is using their video platform to spam the world with ads for games that don't exist, saying that they are spamming the world with ads for games that don't exist (but not this one (yes, also this one)), for Google's own platform. They are not trustworthy on what to get!

I had no idea about Oppenheimer - I have the Danish steelbook which is no doubt worth less. I also have the Amazon Infinity Saga collectors edition in 4k which is also apparently somewhat pricey now.

You pay with your privacy, which I believe isn't permitted (Don't quote me, I don't know anything). It's basically the same thing Meta is doing. If you could see the ads without the additional tracking (ie. generalized ads) that would be fine.
