    I am looking for a Buy-It-For-Life pen. I've had the Parker Jotters for years and love them, but I am in need of something with a little longer life expectancy on the barrel.

    My first thought was James Brand The Burwell, however I am just now really diving into the BIFL Pen world and curious on what you guys suggestion / use.

    Assume the money cap of $100 for now, unless you have some out of this world amazing option over that cap.

    I am sure they have another launchpad laying around somewhere. They've been taking notes of SpaceX.

    I have not used Last.FM in ages. I skimmed the website and it seems like they are still doing the same song and dance - which is cool. Has anyone used it lately? How well does it work?

    I keep buying books, starting them, and not finishing. I have WAY too many. But, Red Rising is one that I've stuck too pretty consistently.

    True, and solid observation, however there has been a trend that when a new AI comes out, its pretty much a strong leap better than the last. So, if they saw some data that showed a better speed - even if exaggerated - it was likely still faster.

    Would agree. Those tokens = energy somewhere. The more we can accomplish for less is better for everyone.

    From my very basic understanding of that, its a speed test for algorithms, logics q's, etc.

    It's a "leak" from a future release. So, not sure how reliable that is, but Google has not been playing around on their releases lately - nor do they bluff.

    I think so, and if I recall it's since they jumped onboard with xAI servers.

    Trying out the new digg (di.gg), thought it was pretty cool. So the site scraps X and compiles the data to make news posts - specific to AI at this time.

    This could be the nail in the coffin for ChatGPT (IMO).

    92% of GPT-5.5’s coding and reasoning performance, reportedly at 15–20x lower inference cost. And the latency? Sub-200ms for most queries. -@kimmonismus

    I poked around, and there are a few extensions or scripts, but X has changed their backend a few times and it's very unpolished looking. Will keep poking around.

    I mentioned it in another comment, I am very specific on who I follow there. People I know, accounts I enjoy, or sources I trust. I do not like the "for you" page at all and the search/trending I rarely check.

    Maybe I am overlooking it - but have we seen the pricing on these laptops yet? Also, do we know if the Gemini is included with the hardware or is it a separate price tag?

    I only use it for proofreading - it's no different to me than a spell checker when writing.
