@mavica good device

@mavica here you go https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kxopViU98Xo

@mavica yay!

@mavica did the driver update and break or something?

MORTAL WOMBAT!

hedgies enjoying the new cafe landscaping!

@Brainship personal favourite is when a bit of software lists all the stuff it's built with but includes no indication whatsoever as to what it actually does
