Give a man a fish and he'll eat for a day. Teach a man to fish, buy the pond, tell him he can't have the fish, but he can fish for you, sell the fish and give him a very small cut, and then he'll say stuff like "I'm hungry and my teeth hurt." Nobody wants to fish these days ~Tim Ross

This is just a test.

How am I expected to put an hour's worth of sleep in the next 15 minutes? It seems impossible. I mean, I'm going to try, but it seems impossible.

I want to enjoy my summer. I adore the vibes of fall. but... BUT! Kinda missing winter right now.

RE: https://mstdn.social/@TechCrunch/117073307886584417 One time. ONE TIME!. Only 5%. Talk about performative. I want these billionaires to bleed money for our state. They've taken enough.

I'm slowly going from Hey, let's stop using Facebook Messenger to LET US NO LONGER USE THE TOOLS OF OUR OPPRESSORS!

[Body / Health / Weight loss] It was about a year ago that my doctor told me I had to lose weight. They're probably right as it was affecting my whole body. However, I know talking about things like weight loss problematic for some, so I try not to bring it up much. 2 weeks into my goals, and […]

Sadly, I ended up cancelling my order for the Framework Pro laptop. It was a really nice laptop, but with the RAM problems, it was looking like it was going to be close to $3,000 for the configuration I wanted. I don't have $3,000. So instead, I picked up a 2 year old ThinkPad for $800. I […]

Woke up, and it appears my Thunderbolt dock has died overnight. So instead of working with 3 large 27 inch monitors, I have 1 13 inch laptop screen.

My girl is not very tech savvy. She uses Instagram for social media and the Instagram messenger to chat with her friends. My family is all on Facebook messenger. Trying to get my friends and family onto Signal has been an uphill battle. Some of my nerdier friends were already on Signal, but in […]

I do know the difference between whether I can afford something vs if I can pay for something. Sometimes I don't care.

Technology is supposed to make our lives better. So if it actively makes your life worse, burn it to the fucking ground. A lesson I often forget.

🎵 I just died in your arms tonight It must've been something I ate 🎵

I know I sound like a broken record: Noting lasts forever, everything will be dust eventually. DO THE THINGS THAT MAKE YOU HAPPY! TELL YOUR FRIEND AND FAMILY YOU FUCKING LOVE THEM!!! However much time you think you have, it's less than you might realize. Find the joy wherever you can.

I like how this has it's own page on the Los Angeles Public Library site: https://www.lapl.org/borrow-ukulele

I guess the real villain all along has been clean drinking water. This almost reads like an onion article.

90% of car commercials are drone shots.

Legitimately, I think the weather is trying to kill me today. lol It's a 101°F, and tomorrow will be a 103°F. Wild stuff. Keep cool out there!

Today is an important day. Pushing a new site for a client that we've been working on for over a month. I wonder of I can convince my client part of the deployment is naptime. You think they'd buy that? 😴

This is the way to do it! @EricAlper https://mastodon.social/@EricAlper/116951187540333206

Grill Em All is a Heavy Metal themed burger joint in the Belmont Shore area of Long Beach.

Used Tap Plus (Open loop, Credit/Debit payments) on Pasadena Transit for the first time. This was severally overdue. Accidentally left my tap card at home but my creditcard worked exactly like a tap card. Most of the greater LA area uses Tap now. If only IE transit lines got on board […]

Early bed time for me... Okay, so like early-ish...

Do not trust your ISP. Do not trust your phone company.

What were some successful ways you made some of your friends and family actually care about #privacy? Most of my loved ones use Facebook Messenger or Instagram Messenger.

Tonight I spent about two hours trying to figure out the old coaxial cables that came into our house. When my mom passed away in 2023, she was using DSL. Modern DSL is actually quite competitive, believe it or not. I moved in after she passed and I switched everything to 5G cellular home […]

rut-row Looks like I'm staying indoors for a few days.

I've decided to try Kde again. Had to let go of my GNOME bias and just let the whole system just wash over me... Kde does indeed slap.
