Late fall cleaning is going great! I've reduced my Google usage enough to cancel Google-One, and I've finally sorted though Dropbox and cancelled that too! All told I'll save like ~$21/mo.
It’s been how many years and I still absentmindedly type reader.google.com in thinking I’ll pass some time..
Why are we still fucking with clocks twice a year? There were votes. Significant majority consensus. Yet somehow measures stalled at both the state and federal level.
It is 6 PM and I am annoyed that it is dark outside. That is all.
TBH I gave it 50/50. Like, white guy doing crimes…
Tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow by Gabrielle Zevin was great. It’s one of those reads I didn’t realize how much I needed.
Hotel desks are the worst possible RTO option.
Read two books this week: Atlas Six, Book 1 and 2. Looks like I’ll be waiting until Jan/2024 for the final book. Enjoyed them both. I feel vastly better having spent that time reading over TikReelGram. I didn’t know how much I was missing long from content!
The quest for ever increasing individual productivity has to be one of the greatest mind viruses of all time. I’ve been in this industry for 30 years. I work as much or more than ever. If I am actually more productive, it didn’t result in more time to live. “Best” case I effectively worked more…
I want to read something in the fantasy genre, ideally from the last few years, no more than three books in the sequence. My goal is to scale back TikTok-Reel-etc style high twitch content and replace it with long form reading. Suggestions?
Charging both EVs at the same time. ~19,000 watts. Glad I spent all that time converting 60w bulbs to 5w LEDs.
OrangePi day4: switched from SD to NVMe. Most of the HOWTOs I found were somewhat wrong — mostly extra weird steps that aren’t really necessary. I should have resized the partition first but it’s fine.
It boots fast. Has ample memory and storage, on Tailscale, with minikube for dumb projects.
OrangePi arrived last night. Took a while to figure out that the Ubuntu image didn’t work. Switched to Debian. <10min later I had Tailscale installed and setup as an exit node. Tada! Next up some nonsense with k8s and home automation.
Yeah. I was fully prepared to buy one today if offered.
It seems actually promising — like the thing I imagined someone would build.
Monster
Why did they make a show about the least interesting of the “main” game of thrones character?
Dog resting his head on my pillow. Declares it’s a sleep in day.
Nobody is ready for the day.
Devices + Traveling is a mess: Phone, Laptop, Tablet, Switch, Headphones, Bag-o-Cables. I also kinda want an e-Ink reader, Kindle or reader/writer like ReMarkable.
By weight my bag is mostly situation specific technology.
Wallpaper is… challenging. Last time I hired a paper hanger. Next time I’ll hire a paper hanger. This was manageable.
You know, I really enjoyed the two or so weeks where skeets mostly didn’t talk about tweets. That was swell.
Amazingly that worked
Switch Paired to my Phone. What could go wrong. Downloading updates.
Seems fitting. Bought a Switch for Zelda. Comcast has an outage. Have to install an OS update to play Zelda. Comcast has an outage.
My understanding is that to play the newest Zelda I need to buy a six year old game platform that doesn’t support 4K video… ?
Curious Wi-Fi options
Our boy does the same thing!
Mostly I agree.
Mastodon hasn’t been fun.
Was it the papers, or the fact that so many Google's *left Google to found and start competitive companies because Google wasn't interested in pursuing those projects*.
