My dog sheds so much. It is unending. I can't brush her out enough to have it stop.

Old rule of thumb: new tech must be 10x the status quo to catch on. Hyperlight: "How about 200x?" This revolutionizes anything needing: * hardware isolation (security), and * ultra-fast startup times (performance-sensitive / massively scalable, on-demand functions). Agentic AI workflows? What else?
Great little post on the @unikraft.com blog about using unikernels with the @cncf.io project #hyperlight: unikraft.org/blog/2026-06... like that boot-to-main()! (and that VM is < 1MB, so density.... which means cost down)
Awe! The company that handles the package lockers in my building sent a push notification to wish me a happy 4th. On the 5th.
Rewatching BSG. On the 2nd episode of the miniseries. The line "it's like they just flipped a switch". The immediately after power flickers 3 times.
At this point my pc build from 1.5yr ago is performing better than my stock portfolio.
Displayport connectors are now my least favorite connector now that mini/micro-usb is dead. That stupid locking mechanism is the target of my ire. Like, ok for some reason you want it to lock... but how am I supposed to touch the side connected to my monitor without messing up positioning.

Do yourself a favor: make your own whipped cream. So much better than store-bought. Ridiculously simple, especially if you have a stand mixer (but hand mixer is also simple). Heavy cream. Powdered sugar (taste as you go). Pinch of salt (+ MSG if you have it) Vanilla Whip it. Whip it good.
So @sjvn.bsky.social just dropped a very nice bit about our announcement today. I might be biased since it's what I've spent the last 6 years working on but hey... www.zdnet.com/article/micr...

It irks me that part of Seattle's light rail is at-grade. The stupid nimby's at the time fought the rail and now we are all paying for it every single day.
I really don't need your AI generated "security" issue that you clearly do not understand *any of*... either that or you didn't even both to read before submitting. This is starting to become the attack.

Clearly there must always be a Toy Story movie in the pipeline, else Debian would no longer to be able to release new versions.
I cannot handle music that has totally different things in the left and right channel. Worse is stuff that bounces between channels. I can't be the only one that this is painful for?
Sometimes I wonder if working from home for so long has turned me into a goblin who cannot be trusted to interact with other people without making it weird. Then I remember that I have always been a goblin who cannot be trusted to interact with other people without making it weird.
The escalator at the brand new light rail station is already broken. All is right with the world (aka, Seattle).
