Last weekend my sibling and I took her goddaughter to Spur. I haven’t been to Spur in ages and deviated from my usual beef burger and decided to try the crumbed chicken burger instead. I do not regret that life choice. Throw on some Spur pink sauce and voila. I get why Spur is so popular with parents. The kids get to go to the play area and you get to drink your <insert drink of choice at 12 am here>. It’s win-win. Now that I have that unsolicited top parent tip off my chest, here’s this week’s Bytesized.
Baby Yoda turns 1
Can you believe it was almost exactly a year ago when The Child aka Baby Yoda came into our lives via The Mandalorian (which I still haven’t watched!)? And like any celeb, what would his life be like without a lil controversy. Apparently (Spoiler alert) in Season 2 The Child eats an egg and fans aren’t pleased. Even a Lucasfilms art director had to defend the little critter.
For the record, Chapter 10 of #TheMandalorian makes it clear that the Frog Lady’s eggs are unfertilized, like the chicken eggs many of us enjoy. But obviously, chickens aren’t sentient beings and the Child eating the eggs is intentionally disturbing, for comedic effect.#StarWars https://t.co/Js51fLpE3C

Google changed its icons to all look the same & just like I am with every FB update, I am not impressed
I use the icons as bookmarks in my browser and now I am confused. Gmail is supposed to be red. Apparently I am not the only one. Some guy came up with an extension that restores the old icons.
Enjoying those new Google icons, everyone? Yeah, me neither. pic.twitter.com/1eVaxRu5MO

Tesla Tequila, it makes you happy
First Elon Musk released short shorts for $69.42 which sold out within hours. And then he released Tesla Tequilla, for $250 (R3 907) a bottle, that sold out within two hours (It’s no Gywneth’s Vagina candle, but still).
Raspberry Pi 400: it’s inside the keyboard
Introducing the Raspberry Pi 400, which is Raspberry Pi 4 inside a keyboard. (If you’re into retro tech, read my Raspberry Pi 3 review here)
PS5 vs Xbox – it’s kind of a big deal
Sam got to check out the Xbox Series S here and Hans of Vamers got to review the PS5, which you can watch here.
If this isn’t your vibe, then do you. After playing Zelda on Switch for a while, I am now enjoying playing 2048 on my phone #NotAGamer.
