Raw textile or clothes are fine, I agree. I’ve seen a lot of issues in anything that implies moving parts or frequent assembling: bicycles, tents, rollers, etc. Nothing extremely bad but, as I said, I preferred to pay a bit more to get better equipment on my bikes elsewhere.

A bit more details on that “throwing away” part: there are often people who come to the workshop and ask to upgrade their equipment. They want to get a new set of tyres/inner tubes before a new bike season, set up new handles, change wrist watch batteries, etc. We were asked to always puncture old tyres, cut handles in half, etc. The watches case was infuriating to me: battery replacement was 5€, the same amount as a new basic watch. We were asked to just offer people new watches and throw away old ones so no one could retrieve it from trash and use it later. I never did anything of those and resigned shortly.

It was Decathlon France back in 2015. Well, it’s maybe more than “few years”, things may have changed now

While I sometimes buy some sport equipment here and while they have some very accessible products, you can get much better quality for a bit more expensive. Worth saving money for a month more but have really good hiking equipment (or whatever you are looking for).

Also, I worked for them a few years ago and their policies were very questionable. E.g. sometimes they were throwing away some products but always smashed them (like, with a hammer) so “it cannot be used if anyone finds it”.

No no, definitely the smell /s

Stunning builds. Are you Jente Bijl? In this case congrats, your builds are really pieces of art! If not, thanks for a great discovery :)

I am not even in hope for that anymore. 1.7 was the last version I actively played on. 1.8 was a nightmare and felt like I have been stolen something, I never played since.

I’ve been offered a Back to the Future DeLorean set recently, my first set in 20+ years or so. Damn, I was missing my Lego childhood! Probably going to get back in and try some custom models.

Don’t give them the ideas!

Medieval Dynasty and Biped (both in co-op). The former when playing longer sessions after work, runs great and overall a very fun experience. A lot like early Valheim discovery but centered around the settlement, and much better than Aska from both graphics, performance and UI point of view. Biped is for shorter sessions, like lunch breaks, just to finish a level around a coffee. Biped was a joke at some point since we were unable to see each other in-game and network was kinda broken. But now it’s lovely, one of the best 2 bucks purchases.
