a single button you press + hold and it zips round til you let go. You can click the button to step to the next minute and 0 seconds so it’s easy enough to set it at like a quarter past the hour.

The box for mine said it did time, temperature, the date and also diy messages. Only the first two are actually true :o:

I’m guessing it’s imbedded in the fan not something you need to plug into a pc to set. Like your oven clock or something.

I've seen this tech many, many years ago and you're right: you have to press L or R to cycle through the whole alphabet for each character in turn.

Fine if you are just setting it the one time, not something to do every day.

It's interesting how, if you compare with the original, you can see the lovely bitmap-to-vector tracing:

A small clock for above my home PC to cut down on 'oh poo poo its 3am' gaming moments.



Its OK, easy to set, three brightness levels, temperature and date cycle if you want it, alarm ditto:

of course as soon as I go back to the page to post this I see this in the 'Also' section:

https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32898580496.html

a few more quid but all the same functions and you can set the colour. Fucks sake, someone might be getting a small white LED clock for xmas :p

Got the razor handle today.



Feels pretty good for $11.00 I do like the adjustments on it. My other safety razor didn’t have it and I feel like this one works better for having it.

Also lol at the blades being made in the USA (doubtful).

Two of my shipments came today! :woop: Two more to go, one of which (the Bluetooth flowerpot) I know is well on its way.

After leaving initial feedback for one of my orders, I poked around the reviews on the product pages and found these gems:

Originally Korean posted:

Different colors have been four. Foot Cream's guts! Cat small eagle color also for root and terrific

Originally Korean posted:

The portrayal of Oh this root. Shipping quickly grew up next

Originally Bulgarian? posted:

Super! A lot of time for delivery, followed by 2 sedatives. The back of the pack from there. The pictures are not lychee, but the worms are still cherven.
These are all for nail polish.

AliExpress keeps recommending Orgonite pyramids like these to me. I remember a Donald Duck story about these supposedly sharpening knives if they're left with the blade under the pyramid... Somehow, I doubt it ;D

ERM... Actually I have stellar scores on the surveys, and every year students tell me that my classes are the best ones they’ve ever taken.
What are some keywords I should be using to find something like a knockoff Pelican case? All I'm finding are iPhone cases with pictures of pelicans on them.

I got a couple knock off makita 18v batteries and they work fine in tools that don't draw a lot of power fast, like flashlights and radios. I had a co worker try to use one to drill a 4" hole through some plywood and it started smoking and swelling haha I thought it was gonna blow up so we threw it out the window. It fell 3 stories and didn't blow up. It's nice to have some cheap batteries though because the real ones are loving expensive.
