Introducing the Ocarina of Time Battle Pass, which will reward: Potions, rupees, slingshot skins and a camo Link costume.

Courtney: “Will you call me before Easter?” Patrick: “Maybe.”

If Die Hard is a Christmas movie, then American Psycho is an Easter movie.

iOS ‘Age-Appropriate Experiences in Apps’ popup

I got hit with the system-level age check. At least it doesn’t send any vital information to the apps, only that I am over 18 years of age. It’s definitely preferable to sending my selfie/lewds to Peter Thiel.

Apparently at least 80,000 people were in line to get presale tickets for the NFL Melbourne game.
It truly is The Eras Tour for day drinkers.

Piastri radio: “Well…it turns out if we start this thing, it’s pretty good.”

That was a solid race, even if it wasn’t as battle-filled as the last two. Even if the safety car scuppered Piastri’s chance of winning, it was still good to see him do well.
Or, as he put it:

I've finally unlocked the sweat zone in Marathon. I look forward to losing all my gear in seconds.

Ozbargain post: [Hack] $1.25 Petrol for $1 @ Costco Fuel Stations: 1. Scan Costco membership card at pump 2. Enter prepaid amount of $1 3. Complete payment 4. Pump dispenses approx. $1.25 worth of fuel 5. Repeat to fill car

I can get cheaper petrol by going through a parking lot with a fuel siphon and a breath mint — and that would be the more dignified option.

Amazon Tours website: “ Welcome to Amazon Tours! Come meet Amazon! Take a free tour to see behind the scenes at Amazon. Learn more about our technology, people, processes, sustainability, and commitment to the communities in which we operate.”

It’s baffling and hilarious that Amazon offers tours of their warehouses. I wonder if there’s a VIP package where you get to pee in a bottle mid-shift (bottle not included).

It’s hard to be mad at either the Matildas or Nadeshiko Japan in that game. Both gave it their all without any dirty tactics. The soccer gods didn’t favour any of our chances and the sole Japanese goal was world-class. GGs. Let’s met again in the 2027 Women’s World Cup.

Not as spectacular as Miguel Rojas’ homer in the ninth inning to tie the deciding game. A lady on my tour was excitedly cheering at the top of the shrine as that happened.

This was my scenery as I was refreshing the scores in game seven of last year’s MLB World Series

I know, right? The Dees are absolutely outclassed by Freo.

Bonnie Doon How's the serenity?

Bro you’re just using the wrong distro bro

I might take you up on that offer. What’s your Steam?

It’s pretty good, hey. Do I already have you on Steam?

Anyone mutuals still playing Marathon? Playing with randos is stating to lose its lustre.

The Guardian opinion piece by Adrian Chiles: “I'll never forget the day I tasted roast chicken crisps - it changed my life for ever”

I was on a walk. A car pulled up next to me and yelled something at me. Taking my earphones out, he yelled again, "You shoelace is untied." I looked down, my shoelaces were still tied. I looked back up and he was driving off, cackling.

I almost admire the quaintness of the bit?

I'm sure as the season goes on, the drivers and teams will figure out optimal battery deployment and races will become more predictable. Until then, though, I look forward to the chaos.

After all the doom and gloom of the new car regulations going into today's Grand Prix, we ended up getting laps of thrilling battles and overtakes. We probably would've gotten even more if Ferrari didn't blunder its strategy.
It almost lifted my mood after the Piastri DNS. Almost.

Tanking their share price would actually be a good prank.

Finished Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door. Stop me if you’ve heard this before, but it’s a pretty good game.
