Once you prize your son off helldivers, you should play helldivers.

You got libraries where you are?

Mine does online rentals for digital products (movies, TV, audiobooks, ebooks).

Breaking change!

Now I’ve got to update my dashboards with the new name and icon 😀

In short, the issue was that the battery blinds don’t alert when they are low battery, and he didn’t think to hard-wire them in advance.

Ones that are close enough to power, he’s run some 5v lines on an automation timer.

My 5G mobile coverage improves about 7 days after my annual shot.
