This is a fun build

While providing tech support for my FIL: FIL: What's that screen? ME: The terminal. You should never use it. FIL: Never? ME: So you know how I'm allowed to watch you open the electrical panel and swap out breakers, but I'm not allowed to ever open up it myself? FIL: Ah! I understand, thank you.

Was completely unaware that the US played last night. The performance against Japan restored some of my enthusiasm, but clearly didn't get me fully reengaged.

When your brain doesn't work in metric by default you kind of forget how big 80cm is until the Lego kit is half assembled on your dining room table. Where am I gonna put this thing?

Incredible. No notes.

Tate Martell mentioned. And Freddy Adu!

What I wore to the shooting range this morning.

"Where are my sunglasses?" Literally on my face. Bozo.

Got N8N deployed in my dev k8 cluster in my homelab. Now what?

Bbno$ is dropping banger after banher

Script Ohio twice in one game? I'm not complaining.

On the 12 yard line. Not bad.

I wish there were more clips of Willians Astudillo to make fresh compilations. Watching him play beisbol is *so good*.

Finally watch the U20 match, and 1 minute in and I already like what Taha is doing as a false 9

and scene

🎯 You, the player, are so disposable *your ship will kill you via orbital bombardment if you try to flee combat* Wild that some people don't understand the very obvious messages in the game.

So, it turns out I'm eligible for a bit of this settlement. LOL. But, my god, what a pain in the ass the form was to submit my claim.

Malfunctioning elevator in the lobby I'm in, and it's wild that people won't even try just hitting the button to try calling a different car. Which works lol. 2/3rds of the people haven't hit the button. Just stood there staring at the car with the doors opening and closing.

What a useful image to capture my frustration about the (understandable!) backlash to stuff like ChatGPT. It is perhaps the least compelling example of AI, but it has become the common public definition of AI. I'm worried the baby will be thrown out with the bathwater.

a heartwarming story of how being an unethical and talentless hack is no barrier to success when you are willing to endlessly flatter the wretched views of rich dipshits

We live in a post-truth society. These people also complain about lawlessness and that people are soft towards criminals while they elected a conman with 34 felony convictions to the Presidency. The truth doesn't matter! The Narrative™ does. Only The Narrative™. The Narrative™ is love. It is life.

Bitnami pulling their container images has broken a lot of crap. At least, for me running a homelab where lots of charts depend on bitnami images. Look, I can understand a business decision to make a "premium" image tier. But maybe just... stop supporting old images, rather than removing them?

This is so cynical, but I'm actually mildly surprised the administration hasn't rolled back new federal requirements on ADA accessibility standards. My guess is it isn't salient enough as a tool of cruelty to have risen to their attention.

After spending an insane amount of money fixing and upgrading my electrical service, I just repaired a buried electrical line running to my garage myself. The scales are ever so slightly more balanced.

Even the good firearms channels... it's hard to escape bad politics. Watching a video right now from a channel that *normally* does a pretty good job of masking their politics, but it is SUPER frustrating to see them *accurately* describe what a civil war would look like if it happened here...

12 shots to 1. Good grief. #Crew96

He's off. #Crew96

We have looked so bad this first half hour. #Crew96

If any of my moots want to go to the OSU v Minnesota game next Saturday night, I've got a spare ticket...

A very clean, efficient game by Ohio State. Never really took any shots down the field. Didn't need to. Blowout? No. But the game was well in control due to good defense and effective if not flashy offense.

Electrical issues continue. Garage breaker was tripping. Turns out I *did* knick the buried line digging out some woody weed trees. Unfortunately, there is very little slack there, as the wire is right next to some buried pipes (gas?). So I need more supplies to repair the line.

Frustrating to not get that second goal. Still, strong start to the season. Sands has been very good IMO. I think Afolayan was fouled in the box there at the end. Wild second half. #FCSP

Let's go!

New power supply in and we are back up.

Joe Scarborough is proof that you can be conservative and not fascist.

"Drain the swamp" says the most criminal administration ever.

I can't win. Breaker box goes bad, threatens to burn my house down. I go a day without power and spend an insane amount of money to replace it (and upgrade to 200 amp service), and the very next day a power supply dies on one of my kubernetes nodes (the one with the GPU, so it runs Jellyfin). Sigh.

Why are Starbies employees catching strays? Why are these people so fucking weird?

Need to replace a failing breaker box, so tonight is an old school "read by candlelight" kind of night

It's this kind of unshakable belief in capitalism that will doom us all.

I hate to inform you that if you weren't raptured today... Well, that's on you. God doesn't make mistakes. Skill issue.

I'm good at my job. 20 years here at my employer, something like 14 in this role, and I think I don't have imposter syndrome anymore lmao

Why say something now, but not when it actually mattered?

#Crew96 should go get Shion Shinkawa as a U22 signing in the offseason.

I told the Reverend he made me proud to be a Christian.

I quite enjoyed S3E7 of Star Trek Strange New Worlds. I think a longer episode grappling with the bigger context might've been better, but I think the format let the characters be explored more deeply.
