You know whose opinion I don’t need on housing? People who make money in the housing market.

Yes! Do it. Make your platform even less relevant, Lonnie. Run that shit right into the ground.

They likely have no value to Russia now that they’ve been compromised.

We got CBD oil for our kitties to help them endure 4th of July fireworks. We tried giving it to them a day early to observe their reactions before everything got loud and scary. One of them scratched me so much (out of fear, not malice) that I quickly gave up. We’re gonna try sneaking it on some tuna tonight. The store was sold out of CBD treats, so hopefully this works.

I’ve had Mullvad installed for around a year or more. I turn to it from time to time when I wanna keep things separate from my regular browser, like if I’m looking into items on Amazon that I only need once and don’t want recommendations to get polluted. For example, I was looking at the price of spinning platter HDs after one failed in a NAS. I don’t want Amazon trying to sell me more old-tech drives once I replace it.

Has worked well so far. Haven’t tried the other one.

This dude wants to be popular with young voters. I think he’ll pull it off, don’t you? Young people love having their freedoms curtailed by rich assholes who aren’t subject to the laws they’re passing.

Oh, does our war-mongering get in the way of science? How could anyone have seen that coming.

In a sane world, we’d try to build a healthy relationship with China. We’re so interdependent that it’d be a win for both sides. Instead, we need an outside bogeyman to distract from the fact that the real villains fucking us around are our own compatriots. Rich assholes get away with distracting the masses yet again!

Oakland was a pioneer with legislation on this. I recently read that they farm it out to neighboring cities. Fuck OPD.

I was telling someone about a book I had ordered. He commented that I buy lots of books. I explained that I purchase them aspirationally. If I read even a third of them, I’m doing well. Books are awesome.

I applaud this guy for making it work. If the system won’t work for you, go around it. Just be cautious cause it’ll fuck you back if it finds out.

This is a good one.

I went something like six months without my glasses because I still had an old thin frame. It turned out they’d landed on the base of a black standing lamp. I couldn’t see them from six feet away (my rough height). It was when I bent down to plug something in that I found them. I’d probably lost them getting up to go to the bathroom after falling asleep on the couch cause they just “disappeared” one day. They were in plain sight (if I’d had them on) all along.

The military said it was investigating the incident and that it did not reflect its values.

Don’t worry everybody. They said this isn’t the norm.

Fuckers.

Oh, I love this idea so much.

Yeah, I have Simplenote on my devices so that my plain text notes are always synced. Movies and TV shows we intend to watch, stuff to get at the store, unlock codes for lockers in the mail room of our building, stuff to discuss with my therapist, records I wanna find and buy, etc. I was at a show last night (Santigold and she kicked ass) and was jotting reminders for myself between songs. Having an instant notes repository is awesome.

Why does this feel like it’s a flat-earth slide? I haven’t looked at any flat-earth propaganda, but I strongly suspect that it looks a lot like this.

That said, I’ll stick with my VMs regardless. I like simplicity.

Lightning strikes and both candidates die in a horrible freak accident. Oh wait, you asked worst case…

Shut up and help me find an automated teller machine machine so I can buy a ticket to the game.

When the character that’s “driving” keeps moving the wheel back and forth just a tiny bit at a time.

When two characters look at something off-camera in the distance and stare at different points in space (why didn’t the directory catch that?!).

Used to have a Linux homelab. Finally got Windows experience at a job for some years before moving to my current role at another org. Built a new homelab that’s organized around Windows Server because I’ve spent years managing it but never set it up from scratch. Learning small pitfalls of doing so. Just got VMs on the Win domain the other day; will be focusing on certificates shortly. It’s probably not that interesting to most, but it’s valuable learning for me. I’ll start trying to break in with Kali and similar tools once the infra is all setup.
