Apple likely to launch MacBook Pro M6 with MacBook Ultra later this month

As per MacRumors/Bloomberg - "Apple will introduce new OLED touchscreen MacBook Pro models and an ‌OLED‌ iPad mini "on or around" Tuesday, October 27, reports Bloomberg. The launch will also include an M6 14-inch ‌MacBook Pro‌ and an M6 iMac."

Personally, I'm still using my MacBook M1 Pro and won't upgrade until there's a redesign. The Ultra will likely be too expensive and overkill for my needs, so fingers crossed the M6 gets a new design.

[Homemade] My sisters thoughtful attempt at a healthy birthday 'cake'

I told my sister not to get me a birthday cake as I’m eating clean at the moment and didn’t want to go off track.

I visit her today and she’s made me this, to make sure I could still blow out some candles and not miss out.

Nothing like family.

Edit: Sorry, I had to repost as it was removed from the baking sub

Looking for the most wearable mens Oud fragrance

I've previously owned a bottle of Gucci Intense Oud. It smelt great on tester strips, but something about it being on me all day left me a little nauseous so I ended up selling it.

Now the weathers getting a little colder I want to give Oud another chance. The two that I've smelt on other people that always make me think 'Wow' are LV Ombre Nomade and Montale Arabians Tonka.

For anyone who owns one or both, how do you find wearing them all day? Do they get a little cloying? Does the Oud note get milder throughout the day?

Any other suggestions are welcome. Thanks

Help managing notifications on Outlook iOS App

I'm using the Outlook app on my iPhone. I have my personal work account added, and a shared inbox added.

I'd like to keep receiving badge notifications (The little red number at the top right of the app icon) on my personal inbox but stop them coming through on the shared inbox. The reason being the shared inbox has 100s of emails a day, where as my inbox has no more than 5 and they all relate directly to me.

In outlook settings I have full notifications off on both account but is there anyway to manage the badge notifications? Thanks

Brompton G Line Electric: A decent option for commuting?

The reason I ask is 90% of the reviews I've seen test the bike in off road conditions. Gravel, mud, country lanes etc.

I'll be commuting through the city a few times a week from September and love the convenience of a Brompton C/P Line but need something a little bigger/more comfortable.

For any G Line owners, how do you find the bike for commuting? Is it worth changing the tyres to the Continental Urban Contact? They won't be as rugged but maybe better suited to tarmac? Any general advice would be great.

On a side note - If you own the Trail Dust White colour, do you find you're constantly cleaning it? I love how it looks but feel it would always be dirty and the Forest Green might be more practical?

I will be touching grass more this season

Collected all the sprites last season and mastered them too. I was grinding like my rent depended on it.

This season has just started and there’s already 20+ sprites to collect and likely 100+ more to come. It’s bordering on ridiculous.

I’ll stick to what I enjoyed in the past this time, getting tonnes of kills and match wins. I’m guessing there’s a lot of people in the same boat as me.

Dyson V12 Slim: Worth paying extra for the original filter?

As the title suggestions, my Dyson V12 slim filter is at the end of its life.

A replacement via the Dyson website is just under £20. The aftermarket equivalent on Amazon is about £12 for 2.

It's not a huge difference and I'm happy to pay the extra for the original but from your personal experience, is the Amazon equivalent any good? Thanks

I want to learn to cook. How did you start?

I've never really been a good cook. Fortunately, I've always had people around me who enjoy cooking, so I've left them to it.

Considering it's a basic survival skill, I really should start learning. How did you learn to cook? Any suggestions on how I can keep it enjoyable so I don't lose interest?

Season 3 Chapter 7: The sweatiest season in Fortnite history

As we approach the end of this season, I want to give a special shout out to the steam room levels of sweat this season has produced.

Collecting 100+ sprites, having to master them, getting hunted off the battle bus, team mates not reviving you to steal your sprite etc. It's been a mess.

Whatever comes after this, I really hope it brings back the fun because this season has felt like a part time job.

Glass on oven door smashed out of nowhere

Heard a loud noise from the kitchen, went to have a look and the glass on the oven door has smashed.

It wasn’t on at the time and there was nothing inside poking the glass. No kids or animals around either.

Any ideas why this has happened?

What are we thinking?

Are people still collecting them or are we looking forward to the end of this chapter?

Miller's Crossing (1990)

Thank you Reddit and in particular this community.

Until about a week ago I'd never even heard of Miller's Crossing. I'd seen all the usual gangster movies - Goodfellas, Casino, Donnie Brasco etc, but for whatever reason this one had gone completely under the radar until someone on here recommended it.

It might sound silly but it made me a little emotional watching it. Like a step back in time. What movies used to be like before the huge budgets and endless special effects. It's just honest movie making.

The sets, the costumes, the music, the acting. All perfect. I knew the Coen brothers were good at what they did but this just confirms that for me.

If you need something to watch this week/weekend, don't look any further.

Quack Zero Point owners - Stay safe out there!

So I just went into a ZB squad game with a Quack Zero Point on my back. One particular team member took an interest and on mic kept demanding I give it to him. Ignoring him I kept on playing but knew it wouldn't end well.

When I had some distance between us....I extracted the Quack ZP with a portable extractor and stuck another common sprite on. Eventually I got knocked by an enemy player, he comes flying over and puts me on his back, refusing to revive me until I die. (Hoping I had the QZP in my inventory).

It ended with him realising he'd been tricked, screaming at me on mic and me telling him to F*** OFF before leaving.

It's wild out there!

The worst shotgun in Fortnite history: The Striker Pump

I don't think I've ever come out on top in a 1 vs 1 with this thing unless it's against a bot and even then I’ve had a few close calls!

The damage it causes isn't great and reloading after each shot takes forever. Overall it's just an awful weapon to carry.

In all honesty, how practical are folding phones?

As someone who's never actually owned a folding phone but had a passing interest, I'm really looking forward to the release of the new iPhone Fold (Ultra?). Samsung has been the obvious choice if I ever wanted to switch, but I couldn't get on board with their software/ecosystem.

I love the idea of a smaller device in your pocket, then being able to unfold this larger tablet-like screen but I do feel the novelty of using it would eventually wear out.

I've seen many examples of apps running at the wrong aspect ratio with excess space to the sides. Constantly unfolding the phone must also get tedious. I'd eventually start using the front screen more and more. Durability is another area that worries me. Not necessarily the folding mechanism but how delicate these devices feel.

I'm hoping Apple can nail this new model. Whether I can actually afford one, is another issue.

What are your thoughts on folding phones?
