I just opened the Logitech config utility and half of it was an advertisement for some Disney shit. This just sealed the deal for me never buying anything from Logitech again. The keyboard is shitty enough, but ads in the config utility? Are you fucking kidding me?

2012: "God I want a job in social media. That would be so cool and so creative" 2026: "I never wish to see a post again. All content drains my soul. The pursuit of KPIs has killed art. I want to live in the woods and only be contactable by sky writing"
I absolutely adore the Beastmaster outfit. Characters with their eyes hidden by hair or a hat are 100/100 character design to me. It's so freakin adorable.
Mom, cooking for herself, putting 1/2 a pinch of salt/pepper into an entire pot of food: "I don't know why this is so bland!" Mom, watching me cook, forcing me to wildly underseason: "I don't know why this is so bland!" Mom, eating what I cooked while she was distracted: "omg I love your cooking!"
