Alright. New people seemingly following me out of nowhere in today's influx. Did I get recommended to you? What made you follow me? Inquiring minds want to know!

Oh good, either something I posted breached containment, or there's a new wave of spam follows going on because I've gotten 5 in the last 30 minutes when I normally get one a week or so.

For a brief, perfect moment, just before losing the game, I had Possibility Storm, Eye of the Storm, and Knowledge Pool all in play. Just an absolutely unhinged board state.

As usual, Stephanie dropping wisdom. This was a really good one, saying a bunch of stuff that I've been struggling to articulate for myself for a while.

Heyyyy, are you a privacy-focused engineer? Would you like to probably work with me sometimes? job-boards.greenhouse.io/reddit/jobs/... We have two spots open for this role, and gee whiz would I like to see them filled.

Just discovered that an old buddy of mine up and died earlier this year, and I didn't know it. Life is just so fleeting, man.

@erikaishii.bsky.social said "I fought at Sekigahara" and my wife perked up and said, "She fucking what? That makes the timeframe on this very clear." I have never seen her so excited about a video game. This is awesome.

Hard drive failure this morning, and I've never been so excited to have bought a hot swap chassis as I am right now. Replacing dead drives was a whole ordeal on my old NAS due to having to power everything down to do the swap. I know this has been a thing forever, but it's new for me.

Strong rec here. Claire previously did an auction like this, and did beautiful stuff with her books for me. And it's for a good cause!

Cool. So the local school district's superintendent just got abducted by ICE. This is a very reasonable and normal thing to happen in a free country. Nothing to see here.

Apparently scammers are now pretending to report accounts and then DM you to get you to go to Discord, so you can talk with "Eric Bailey" from Bluesky support also on Discord. So that's exciting.

I said I 3d printed a potato, and here's the prototype version. Definitely needs a redo with a smaller nozzle, probably a different base color filament, different support setup, etc. But it sure works for a prototype.

When a video shows you that a plumbing task is easy and 15 minutes, remember the video maker is a fucking liar and should be beaten bloody.

In actually positive news for once, all the weight I put on when dealing with my grandma's death last year is finally off as of yesterday. Small victories.
