Politely disagree. M-disc for BD-Rs are still absolutely worth the money if you want to properly archive something. NIST has agreed that the archival lifetime of a M-Disc BD-R is 100+ years.

You have to be careful with normal BD-Rs because there are two different types of recording material on the market: High to Low and Low to High (LTH). You want to stay away from BD-R LTH discs as their longevity isn’t as good as the High to Low discs.

There is a ton of HD-DVD disc rot today. For a format, it definitely did not hold up to age.

Thank your deity that M-Disc exists.

For me, ChargePoint chargers are the easiest to use and consistently work best, but usually the most expensive.

Blink chargers are the worst. The app is clunky, slow, and the experience just never feels like they actually vetted the process. Also, it feels like they have a hard time keeping their chargers maintained.

What used to be Volta, now Shell (yeah the oil company) is a hit or miss depending on their charger actually working. Nice thing about Volta is that free is free (for now).

For actually finding working chargers, I use PlugShare.

Wow, I didn’t know that some states allow fast food to be purchased by a EBT card. Can’t get away doing that in the south.

M-Disc exists?

Fleabag is worth a watch. Not many episodes for both seasons so you can binge it quick before the ads start taking over. Great writing and acting. If you love watching people get in awkward, cringe situations, I highly recommend it.

Incredibly lucky that our library system has started investing in blu-rays and has purchased many of the Criterion Collection. They have also heavily invested in Shout Factory’s offerings too. Now I need to see what they can do to start getting some Arrow, Vinegar Syndrome, and Severin releases!
