      Diablo IV Lilith burger turns Burger King into Burger Queen in Japan for a limited time

      Do you dare to take a bite out of the queen of hell?

      It’s not long to go now before fans of the Diablo video game series get to play the long-awaited fourth instalment when it’s due to be released on 6 June 2023. For some, that date still seems painfully far off, but Burger King Japan is here to help us with the wait by serving up an exciting appetiser called the Lilith Spicy Tomato Double Whopper with Cheese.

      This new burger is being produced in collaboration with Activision Blizzard Japan, the makers of the video game series, and it marks the third collaborative release, with Lilith joining a couple of other hellish burgers currently on the menu.

          (thinking the G’s version will work against drones, or bigger)

            Found this at Costco the other day. Motoko is still deciding is we will buy one. Only $99/pound.

                                @dwarf I went and checked it out
                                current conversion rates it cost $234.33 US

                                Although I can get one from Amazon

                                [Portable Waist Fan, 12000mAh Battery Operated Fan, 20 Hours Working Time, 2 Speeds, Strong Airflow Hands-free Rechargeable Belt Fan for Outdoor Works, Takeaway, Farm, Hiking, Camping, Travel, Black] for $49.99

                                  @orc that one at scAmazon isn’t an AC unit tho - just moves hot air around (still nice to keep your clothes from gettin damp and sticky). the jap one actually uses some high-tech phase change material to give ya a cooldown effect.

                                  still, at $50 vs the pair of $250 ones an american would need, i’d prolly try the amazon one first too 😜

                                  if ya get one, lemme know how well it works for ya !

                                    @dwarf Im for sure gonna get one … I been looking at the Japanese one I think they are saying PCM for simple heatsink they put in it.

                                    Now there is on out there that actually does have a true cooling unit built in which is pretty cool but its a small wear on your neck unit.

                                    Although having worked in HV/AC I will believe it when I see it lol
