Speaking hypothetically...
Say you had a gift card on your Amazon account. You used it to buy stuff from Jeff. It all arrived. Lego, dolls etc.
It was purchased from Jeff, not any third party sellers...
Jeff emails you to tell you that the stuff was sent back to him and he's refunded you the £50. What would you do?
All hypothetical. I mean would you buy a 1TB SSD instead of the 500GB one you were going to buy?

www.theguardian.com/ukThe actual front page of The G right now, and the top story is about George Floyd. Remarkable. I thought it would be another couple of weeks, and probably a bigger event that would push COVID-19 off the top spot.

I bet Amipal loves singing about how he likes to blow the men down. Yes, blow the men down. But not to blow the men. |

I'd rather go with your morals than his if you don't mind. It's all speculative anyway obviously.

The world and the economy is intrinsically unfair, and this is your chance to right some of those wrongs. The correct actions in response to your moral conundrum are: 1) Burn down the local Po-po station 2) Loot your local Target or other chain store of your choice 3) Assassinate Boris Johnson 4) Fuck the police 5) Buy the 1TB SSD only if you need the extra storage, otherwise use the £50 on books or music or whatever turns you on. |

All hypothetical. I mean would you buy a 1TB SSD instead of the 500GB one you were going to buy? I'd say "Thank you Jeff for your donation" and buy a Samsung 860 QVO 1 TB SATA 2.5 Inch Internal Solid State Drive (SSD) (MZ-76Q1T0) at just under a ton. Nothing beats it, except a second one with a caddy so you can clone your luvvverly system disk. You could go cutting edge with the SSD SAMSUNG 970 EVO Plus M.2 SSD M2 SSD Hard Drive HD SSD 1TB, but cloning and storage of those is a bitch. |

Shenguin said: Jeff doesn't (yet) sell 1/4's. Actually I'm surprised that in the States he doesn't. Chumbles. I've got an older version of that ssd in a MacBook and the one you pointed to is the one I'm going to buy for my newish lappy. The lappy boots from a small M.2 nvme drive with a 2242 format. It may take a 2280 but until I open it I'm not sure. Will know once I replace the second drive. Got an Amazon voucher for my birthday so be buying from them.

Hi, I'm still alive. Except my face.
How is everyone? I assume Baby has been smothered by his other half after being locked up with him for weeks?
Games: cities skylines. 4 stars.
Oh and I bought a Switch. All the stars. I had never played a Zelda game until Botw. Amazing. I've missed out on so much.
Smooches.

Stealing from Jeff <sad face>.
I'm not sure defrauding our overlord is the way to go.
Plus 1TB of storage is not enough.

I spotted this and thought of all of you. (warning - this is an unrelated post, but bloody useful)! Free download and/or online read. E.M.Forster - the Machine Stops. www.ele.uri.edu/faculty/vetter/Other-stuff/The-Machine-Stops.pdfgo to BBC and Will Gumperts write up - extraordinary novella of lockdown Britain created 100 years ago. OTTM: not so much. I'm on my third coffee - need more. I thought the music uploads on the weekend Jukebox was most excellent. |

The lord giveth and the lord taketh away...
Fucking Asda delivery guy fucked off with a pallet of ours. Bread, bagels, BBQ, beer.
FUCKING ARSEHOLES.
Do you know how many really nice weekends we get so we can have a BBQ.
What a crock of shit.
"Your driver Rudi". Aye?
I've got a message for Rudi. Ya useless fuck.

So Melvazord stole Tenthen's Grandchild's switch but I'm getting it for stealing from Jeff.

Coincidence?
Yes. Obviously.

Stealing from Jeff <sad face>. I'm not sure defrauding our overlord is the way to go. Plus 1TB of storage is not enough. Our resident tech monster, aka crankcaller will either have a massive cloud backup (and the secret virtual masonic handshakes to get a contention free connection), or a dynamic local fileserver. He certainly won't keep his massive pron collection on his laptop where his PM can find it! |
