Blog2025 ≫ Boring tech update

Hmm suddenly getting DNS_PROBE_FINISHED_BAD_SECURE_CONFIG on chrome on this laptop... it's that suddenly secure dns doesn't work. I wonder if it relates to this laptop as now being too out of date. Signal also says it's going to stop working on it. not sure I can update...

Also wasn't a raspberry pi originally about five quid or less? The new one is £170!!

Raspberry Pi 500+ is a premium version of the original Raspberry Pi 500, complete with 16GB RAM, pre-installed 256GB SSD, Gateron mechanical switches, low-profile changeable keycaps, programmable RGB LED backlighting and more!

Looks a very nice little computer though, probably good to leave connected to the tv or something. I have to keep plugging this laptop into the tv as it's the only way we can get channel 4 on demand, it's not available through our tv for some reason.

I don't need to be buying myself new stuff at the moment though, not until the bathroom is paid for.

Partly cloudy and light winds, 9 - 18℃.

raspberry pi: Credit card sized super cheap computer, awesome.
